APARTMENTS BLAMED
FOR LEAN MEAT DEMAND
Institute of Packers Say Fat Is
Crowded Out of Modern
Dwellings.
Rr the Associaied Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, January 23.-The apart
ment house, blamed for everything from
increase in divorces to the rise of the
delicatessen. was presented with an
other indictment last night. Because
of apartments, Homer Dawson of the
Institute of Meat Packing told the Ma
tional Live Stock Producers Association
here, the public wants lean meat. There
is no room for fat or for keeping left
overs to be made into hash or soup, he
explained
This reacts most on swine raisers, he
said, because swine are fed on corn,
which makes fat. and they can't be
fed on something that makes lean meat,
because they are raised mostly in the
corn belt and corn is the cheapest, most
convenient food. Cattle and sheep
raisers have solved their problem, he
said, by sending lambs and calves to
the slaughter house.
The only solution is to breed a type
of hog that can eat corn and still be
lean, he said.

CHICAGO, January 23.-Cited for
contempt of court, Rev. Philip Yarrow,
who is carrying on a campaign against
indecent literature, yesterday was given
until February to show cause why he

AT the same time the State dismissed
its case against John Youngman, book

minister was the States chief witness.
Youngman was charged with possessing
indecent literature, after DIR. Yarrow,
as head of the Illinois Vigilance Society,
had caused his arrest.

at 250, 900 ohms. This factor alone, the
engineers said, made possible closer
matching of the tubes external imped-
ance, such as tuning coils, with at
tendant increased voltage application
To determine the efficiency of the
tube, its designers contracted a test set
containing one of these tubes as radio
frequency amplifier, power detector
and a power output tube The result
was very satisfying. they said. In an
other test they replaced the two screen
grid tubes in an ordinary receiver with
the pentodes and got application four
times greater than was possible with
screen grids. The pentode. they said
may be used either as radio frequency
amplifier or as a detector. While point
ing out that the idea of five-element
tube is not new, engineers said, its prac-
tical application has not been attempt
ed heretofore In America.

Dead Peers Diary

ViscOunt Esher, Power
Behind British Throne,
Was Kitchener's Aide.
BY the Associated Press.


LONDON, January 23.-Viscount
Esher, n, who was for many years one
of the most noted and influential of
British peers, died suddenly yesterday.
He left war diary in the custody of
T. British Museum to be kept sealed
until 1881. Since the viscount was
closely associated with royalty and was
the representative in France of Lord
Kitchener when the latter ruled the
war office. his diary one day is expected
TO furnish most important historical
matter.
The successor to the title is the
Honorable Oliver Sylvan Ballot Brett,
who married Antoinette Heckscher of
New York, who thus becomes Viscountess
ESher.
The late viscount was a close per-
sonal friend of King Edward and King
George, so close that he was sometimes
called the power behind the throne"

5ELEMENT TUBE
TO CUT RADIO COST
"TWin Screen Grid An
nounced as Promising Dou-
BILE Efficiency.
n the Associated Press.

b. the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, January ga new
radio tube, hailed as forecasting re-
cuction in receiver cost by cutting down
at least one-half the number of tubes
REQUIRED, was announced yesterday.
It is the twin screen grid" pentode,
or five-element tube, for house current
receivers, having more than double the
efficiency of the four-element A. 9.
screen grid tube to which the public
was introduced year or so ago.
Engineers said that the tube, de-
Velopment of the Coco laboratories at
Providence, r. l., would make possible
the designing of three or four tube
receiver that would be equivalent in
output to some preSent-day sets con-
tanning up to eight tubes.
Great Advance Seen.
THE pentode." Ernest Ksuer, presi-
dent. summed up, will represent as
great an advance in radio as did the
three element tube back in 1906.
The public has been asking for re-
ceiving sets which do not employ so
many tubes. This development makes
it possible to build sets which will sat
isfy that demand. Bringing more sim
plicity into radio manufacture and re-
ceiver operation and maintenance. IT
will reduce manufacturing costs, ma
terial costs and, therefore, costs to the
radio public. 1t means fewer tubes per
family, but a great many more families
can own receivers, due to the reduced
cost"
The tube resembles the screen grid.
except that there is an extra connec-
ton at the side of the base for the
second screen grid, making a total of
seven The base has five prongs. with
another connection at the top of the
glass bulb. Like the screen grid, it con-
tains a screen for the plate, with the
second screen between the regular or
control grid and the cathode or cleo
tron emitter.
Much Greater Amplification.
Greatly increased application is OBJ
tanned through the insertion Of the
second screen, which lowers the plate
innpedance. one of the determining fac
tors in the efficiency of a tube. Com

Lubricity"
~
NJ E A N S
1. Freedom from Friction.
2. A Garry Over" Film by Metal Penetration.

ITO lubricate, an oil must decrease
u friction between metal surfaces.
A motor oil does this by separating the
metal surfaces, and theoretically keep
ing them separated under all operating
conditions. 1t may amaze you to know
that many oils frequently fail to do this.
Think how this separation" of NOV.
ing parts is accomplished. The oil forms
a wall or "film" between opposing sur.
faces -. and it is upon this film that the
reputation of every oil mast rest. The
film is thin, of course, for it must ride in
the tight crevices of bearings, cylinder.
walls, etc. ;. But it must also be of ex.
traordinary strength it must cling
tenaciously :. or the pressure of your
motor will squeeze and hurl it from the
vital points that must be kept separated.

Preventative lubricity is the outstand-
ing characteristic of the new Conoco
Germ.P rocessed Motor Oils. This char.
acteristic is the direct result of Germ.
Processing.
You must know this story of Germ.
Process.
Briefly, it is the patented result of IL
years experimentation by the British
scientists, Wells and Southcombe. Back
in 1901, when everything of fundamen-
tai importance was known about the
refining of mineral oils these two
scientists foresaw that additional i'm.
provements must be made, in order to
keep lubricants abreast of the future
development of the gasoline buggy"
They knew that animal and vegetable

oils were "oilier" than mineral oils
could ever be, but were impractical for
use in internal combustion motors
which operated at high temperatures.
Finally the Germ Essence, contain.
ing the Jolly" property lacking in min.
eral oils, was isolated. And method
was devised for combining this essence
with highly refined mineral oils.

mean? -. 1t means that the all.impor.
tant film no longer may be hurled and
squeezed from moving parts. The
Germ-Essence carries the oil into every
minute crevice :. into the very metal
itself. And there it clings - clings when
the heat of high speeds seeks to scorch
and drive it away -. clings when bear.
ings try to squeeze it out -. clings, too,
when you stop your motor. And this is
most important for the oils you are
now using drain away as the motor
stops, and require 5 to Is minutes to
resume their guard duty when you next
tread on the starter. That's why 1920 to
500 of your motor wear occurs in
those first minutes of operation.

Second Assistant Postmast. CT General Clover
 Presents Facts

WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.-Tht passenger airplane service to Alas ka is developing more rapidly than in the United States, w. Irving Glover, Second Assistant Postmaster General testified before the House Appropriations subcommittee on the Post Office and Treasury supply bill.
 Tn some places of Alaska there are no means of getting into a sec ton Of the country for three or four months. A plane can takeoff gnd get there in a short time whore t takes six weeks by dog sledding, J said Glover.
 He explained that the CO., c, passenger service by airplane va very much higher in Alaska than in the States because people arc willing to pay for it in order to get to their destination.
 Glover said the rapidly develop ing passenger service made it pos sible for the government to have air mail carried in Alaska for be- tween 50 and 75 cents a pounds as compared with a maximum of S pound for some lines in the States.

COLUMBUS, O., Jan. 14.-Presi- dent Hoover finds in the Presidency "an opportunity for speeding the orderly march of a great people, and he finds "an inspiration in that moving host" such compensation as is vouchsafed to few. '
 This sentiment was set forth by the Chief Executive in a letter to Dr w. G. Thompson, President Emeritus Of the Ohio State Uni versity in which MT. Hoover told scmething of the pleasant and un- pleasant features of being Presi- cent.
 Mir Hoover spoke in picturesque language of those who for parti- san reasons are working for his downfall He referred to them as "habcrdashers, generously providing him with mental hairshirts."
 Dr. Thompson had sent the Fresident a message of New Year greetings in which he incorporates sc:ne philosophy which he charac- terized as a bit growing out of a half-century of observation.

 BEAVERS ASK
 LIFTINC 6 BAN
Appeal for Adjustment of Restrictions Along
 Alaska Railroad

SEWARD. Alaska, Jan. 14.-Ap- pealing for Federal adjustment of restrictions placed on trapping of beaver in this fur area which has caused severe conditions among the bona fide trappers of the Alaska Railroad section, business men of Anchorage are urging lifting the ban for short period and afford ing partial relief, enabling trap line operators to square up the last year grub bills.
 Trappers point to scant returns of the previous season due to the long spell of mild weather preced- ing the freezeup and permitting all animals to migrate to higher reach es away from their usual haunts with the result that few trappers emerged last spring with pelts of any species.
 Some responsibility is placed on the dwindling beaver on the fact that two years ago, when the beaver season opened, hundreds of citi- zens, who otherwise were not trap pers, took vacations and bagged the limit of valuable fur beavers.
