 A REPLY TO THE "4Go NON-SQuEALERS"


 To The Euiior: after hearing a lot of diversified comment on a recent article on radio interference signed 400 Non-Squealers," I will offer a few lines of suggestion and hope to hear from others in re. gard to this problem. I was not impressed favorably with said ar. tlcle but nevertheless am in sym pathy with the writer on ths squealer problem. Some of the extra-pestiferous ones occasional ly get a rise out of me, especially the persistent steady squealer who seems to monopolize KJR and kOMO. Whether it is radio set or conflicting broadcasting sta tions q am inclined to believe it is the latter), but if it is a local set little sleuthing on the part or some of .our interference de tectors armed with the necessary equipment, that have reason tc believe are covering some terri. tory at present, ought to locate him. And perhaps he can be per. suaded to remedy the conditions connected with his set. which are the cause of the trouble.
 It should not be difficult for some of our radio experts to per .suade him to accept help to cor rect this nuisance, for it is hard Ito believe that a set so out of bal ance or so poorly designed could afford any enjoyment to any one, las the former writer seems to think I disagree with him on Ithe idea that cheap sets. home |made, and mail order house radios should be banned as there are but few of us who can afford $250 or more for a decent" set as the former writer claims to have, yet we are equally entitled to the radio entertainment that is free to us Eall. It is not at all true that all cheap sets are squealers for it is positively known to most of us Ithat some very costly sets can be serious offenders under certain conditions.
 On the other hand the rhodern home assembled set is usually de. Isigned by the nations best-known radio engineers. The parts used in them are as a rule, more expen- sive than those built into standard factory sets, and modern methods are used to prevent these sets from radiating interference. The

Daniel in the lions den had nothing on Douglas MacLean, judg- ing from the funmaker's predica- ment in his new Paramount com edy, Hold That Lion,' which was screened for the first time last night at the Coliseum Theatre before a capacity and highly ap- preciative audience.
 In laudable endeavor to prove himself a hero in the eyes of the one and only girl, the redoubtable MacLean joins what he mistakenly believes is a tcat" hunting expedi- ton. When he discovers that the "cats" are not the familiar and harmless household pets but wild man-eating lions, it is too late tG withdrawa

forS the additional Improvement.
Standard cotton figures, issued by
the Association of Cotton Textile
Merchants of New York, showed
cloth sales for period of five weeks
in January at 317 ,07S, 900 yards, or
92.5 per cent of production. The
trade had expected IS per cent Of
production. Shipments amounted to
345 $4,000 yards, or 1907 per cent
of output.
The advance in this market was
foreshadowed at Liverpool. where
cables at the time of the local open
ing were 2 to English points higher
than due.
Later a portion Of the local ad.
vance was lost as the result of pre-
holiday profit taking.
According to Garside. the total
