ENGINEERS PRAISE
SCREEN GRID TUBE
Agree With Caldwell Com
ment That 1t Marks Big
Technical Advance.
BY C. E. BUTTERFIELD,
Associated Press Radio Editor.


Like most everything else new, or
nearly SO, the screen grid tube is gen.
Grating pro and con comment galore.
Somebody apparently started the dis
cussion by limiting that the screen grid
tube was fad. Engineers and others
have been quick to stress their opinions
to the contrary.
The engineers seem to agree with the
comment Of o. H. Caldwell, former
member of the Federal Radio Commits
sion, who declared that the screen grid
AC tube marks q tremendous tech
nical advance in tube design in the
matter of both ampliflcation and Sen5i-
tiveness Of operation"
Called Valuable Contribution.
Another engineer, r. H. Langley of
Cincinnati, adds: THE tube is a logical
and valuable new contribution to radio
receiving sets. 1t eliminates that small
feedback capacity between plate and
grid which was the outstanding defect
of the three element tubes"
And still another, D. E. Replogle Of
Cambridge, Mass: 1T is the solution Of
the old radio problem of how TO obtain
high application with stability"
So 1t goes. When such authorities
attach their names to the printed word,
1t would seem that the screen grid tube
has made a real beginning toward the
ultimate radio.
Doing Well as Starter.
It is admitted that this tube probably
will be able to do a better job in the
years to some than now, but it is doing
very we'll as a starter, and the COM
plants are few.
Experimenters have taken to the tube
with delight, for 1t has opened a new
pathway to delve into some more OF the
secrets of radio. Some even are trying
to bring back the sets with less num-
Der of tubes, and are succeeding to q
greater extent than had been hoped.

Strike BRINGS
$4,000 MD.
SUIT

FREDERICK, Nd, May 2s.--As
result Of % strike among workers
on the new Calvary Methodist
Episcopal Church being erected hers
at a cost OF 100000, a suit for
$4,000 has been filed in the circuit
court for Frederick county by Sey.
mour Ruff and Sons, contracting
stone masons of Baltimore. naming
two unions as defendants.
The suit was directed against the
bricklayers, masons, and plasterers
international Union OF America,
with headquarters in Washington:
the Bricklayers and Masons Pro-
tective and Beneficial Union No. Z
Of Maryland, with headquarters in.
Frederick, and John T. White, of
washington, as agent of the inter-
national organization.
The bill of complaint, after recit-
tnR that the plaintiffs have been
contracting stone masons in Baltt-
more for many years and have en-
ployed union men only. alleges that
about January s, 1929, Lloyd c.
Cutler, this city, contracted with
the plaintiff for $4,000 to do all
of the stone masonry and brick
work on the church. Early in
March the defendants ordered a
strike and the men quit work.
Later work was resumed and
short time afterward another strike
was ordered and the men again
quit work. Because of this, Mr.. Gull
Ter cancelled the contract with the
plaintiff and notified the plaintiff
that he was employing others to fin.
tsh the work at the expense of the
plaintiff.
That the acts and conduct Of the
defendants, the bill Of complaint
continues, were not caused or influ
enced by any violation on part of
the plaintiff but were caused solely
and entirely to compel Mr.. Cutler
to employ union men on work that
he had contracted to do in this city,
and because Mr.. Cutler refused to
comply with this demand the de-
PENDANTS caused a breach of contract
with Mr.. Cutler and the plaintiff,
with full knowledge that these acts
would result in breach of contract
end cause substantial loss and in
fury to the plaintiff"
The international Union is de-
scrfbed az a voluntary unincorpor-
ated association consisting Of more
than seven persons. located in Wash.
angton, and doing business in various
cities throughoUt the United States
and for that psIrpose having ap-
pointed John T.. white, also known
as Jack White, as its agent.
