Radio Beams

The successful development CT the 'beam system
# radio transmission is important one as the
ether becomes more and more congested with in
creased radio traffic. The fact that the Maroon,
company is installing the system to operate between
England and Canada and will eventually use it be-
tween the mother country and all the scattered col
onies of the British empire is positive proof that
the system is no longer in the experimental stage
! out has passed to the commercial stage where re-
liable and continuous operation is prime necessity
Of course, it is not adapted t. all classes OF
sending stations. It's direct application lies in its
use by high powered stations which in continual
! communication with some other one or possibly two
stations. In this role it will socn earn for itself
he gratitude of all radio men, since ii will go fan
20 relieve great deal of interference.
Under the regular system sending station
radates energy in all directions. For radctele
phone broadcasing, where the greatest possible au
dience is desired, that is excellent feature bu.
for direct, commercial communication the beam
| system is bound to prove far superior.

II. s. Poison Liquor

The practice of the government Of using deadl!
Poisons in denatured alcohol to discourage redis.
tilling and bootlegging not be too heartily con-
demned. It amounts to the invocation of the death
sentence for violation of the prohibition laws, &
conclusion that is obviously at variance with the
letter and intent Of the law. The enforcement acts
do not state that the violation of such amounts to
capital offense, yet every person who dies the
result of the poison introduced by the government,
has been just surely executed by the government
as if Federal official had sprung galows trap
or had thrown switch the electric chair
1t is legazed murder, and yet not legal, either.
1t is to be doubted whether the government has any
legal right to poison the denatured alcohol.
certainly it has no moral right so to do But the
treasury department has taken that right, in spite
of the fact that Secretary Mellon is violently OPP
posed to it.
Z According to the latest advices the government
chemists are now feverishly hunting for something
else besides poison to put in the alcohol to make it
impossible to the denatured alcohol for beverage
purposes if redistilled. The product they seek
is something harmless which will, however, be so

The Steel Melon

If the country needed any assurances that
the era of prosperity is not in for an immediate let
down and that it is founded solid realities rather
than boom fances, it has that assurance in the de-
csion of the United States Steel Corporation to
capitalize approximately 40 per cent of its surplus
and to distribute that capital among it's owners, the
companys common shareholders. 1t is magnif-
icent gesture, carrying more in weight and convc'
ton than thousands Of words On the subject.
And it comes at the end of year remarkable
for the large scale financial transactions which have
taken place, year that included the Chase
Mechanics Bank merger, the Irving Bank American
Exchange amalgamation, the capital distribution
of the General Motors corporation and the recent
rise to first position in world finance of the National
City bank in New York
Twenty-Five years ago Judge Ebert H. Gary
dreamed of a steel company that would be the
greatest in the world and he set about to make his
dream come true. That he has amply succeeded
needs only a cursory survey of the tonnage produc
ton records and for confirmation one only has t.
realize that in 1904 could have bought all the
steel common he wished at IS or 50 share while
today there is spirited bidding on the market t.
purchase it at $16O. Since 1901 when Judge Gary
took the management of the corporation over, it has
made net profits of two billions dollars.
So the prophecy of rs years has been fulfilled
and in the achievement, che sees therein prophecy
for better times yet to come The Steel corporation
occupies fundamental position in the nations in
dustrial life. It is managed by conservative, hard
headed men and the confidence they have show
in the future Of the country should go far to dis
courage the pessmists.

Electricity EXPANDS

On September first Of this year the United States
had total installed electric generating capacity
equal to 5O,0OOOO0 horsepower, gain of practically
400 per cent since 1900 according to the New Eng
land Bureau of Public Service Information. Gen.
trail stations have shown increase of over 200
per cent compared with only 100 per cent for
private plants.
Some idea of the vastness of the power being
generated and used is given in the fact that while
people have been led to believe that Muscle Shoals
and Niagara Falls two of the greatest producers
Of electricity in the United States, the fact remains
that New York City alone consumes more electricity
every day than is produced by all the power plants
at Niagara Falls and power station in New
York City when completed will generate eight times
much is now produced at Muscle Shoals and
nearly twice much the ultimate capacity of
Wilson Dam when fully developed.
The of electric power has increased enor-
mousy in the past ~ years. the report shows, yet
will be as nothing compared with the development
which will be encompassed within the next ten years.
The development Of super-power systems, guaran-
tecng regular power in sufficient quantity for biz.
business, has required installation of generating
systems that can meet the peak load of industries
and day by day the farmer and manufacturer arc
turning to electricity clean, economical depend
able source of power.
This past record and the record of the future to
come are the result of the vision and the courage
of the leaders in the public utility and the pro-
tective laws in the several states that have en-
couraged the expansion of power sources by
guaranteeing capital an adequate income on the
money invested~

IN NEW YORK

New York, Jan. 13.-Among the
scattered statistics of this-and- that
Manhattan reports $l5,O0O,OOO worth
Of jewels stolen in the year 1926.
Most of the losers were women.
This, Of course, is only what
has been reported to the police.
There are, doubtless, many
more kept secret by women who
feared the resulting publicity.
Behind these astounding figures
crouch the menacing, almost fabulous
shadows Of the Immediately clothed,
debonair night club crooks.
This latest turn that crime has
taken, almost unbelievable to folk
who have not actually seen it in
action, is born Of the gin parties
and giddy pleasure round of the
night life. Leaders OF society and
shoulders on the dance floor with
lister figures.
Sometime during the night the
Jewels disappear, now at this caba-
ret and now at that. Some are lost
in taxicabs, torn from Threats and
wrists by frock-coated bandits met
during the evening. And, now and
then, q woman is found dead,
stripped Of her valuablcs.
Unpleasant as it is to face, the tide
Of parasitic gigolos is rising.
There is one fashionable hotel in
midtown where each day, middle
aged and aging matrons keep
rendezvous with youthful lounge
lizards. The "grandmas" buy
clothes, meals and cars for their
"baby swains," give them weekly
allowances and cover their bridge
debts.
This fantastic sort of situation
may seem incredible to the smaller
cities Of the country, yet. so ordi-
nary has it become in Manhattan,
that two Broadway plays are now
devoted to the subject.
In the old days the "sob Dramas,
told OF the young girls from the
country who came to the wicked
city" and fell afoul villainous and
evil-intentioned males.
Today the fictional situation is
reserved. One new play shows a
young man seeking to become
singer who gets q job in cabaret
by way Of start. Enters the
middle-aged villain. She has wealth
and uses it, presumably to help the
young man along but actually to
get him lin her power"
Remember the old-time villain
line-"I have you in me power!'
Well, here It is all over again, but
in reverse. A nice. plump greX-
haired woman today takes her
place as q seducer Of youth.
This, Of course, isn't entirely
fair. The rule IL that the parasitic
army sets out to capture these fat
pursed women Of middle age Wig
want one more fling before old age
seizes them and binds them for
ever.
