NEW BATTERY TUBES
RESTORING MARKET
&C Receivers Temporarily Jolted
Other Type, but Recovery
Is Seen.
~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated PfeSS.
NEW YORK-In these days of AC
receivers. the battery tube has taken
somewhat of a back seat.
But not for long, for there have
Just been developed three new types.
They consist of a general purpose tube,
. screen grid and an output power
tube. all operating on two volts for the
Glament.
The general purpose tube, a $50, de-
signed for use either as q detector or
amplifier, requires only so milliamperes
from the A battery, with the maximum
plate voltage at go and the plate cur
rent drain at only two milliamperes.
The grid voltage is As negative.
Like the general purpose tube, the
output tube, which is a 23l, resembles
the 1919 type. It's filament drain is $50
milliampereS, the maximum plate volt
age being 135 and the grid bias 22.5
volts negative. The plate current is 9
Millismperes.
F1lament voltage and current of the
new screen grid are the same as the
S30, with the plate operated at 1875
volts maximum. The screen requires
CTS volts, and volts negative on the
grid Plate current is / s milliamperes.
The designating number of this tube
- 232. It's dimensions are the same as
the AC screen grid.
These tubes, which are the result of
research in the RCA laboratories, are
designed to operate on either dry cells
Or single cell storage battery.

CHAIN STORE FIGHT
REFUSED SUPPORT
Retail Association Head Says New
Form of Competition
Inevitable.

While independent retailers "are not
enthused by increased competition" of
chain stores, 1t is ill advised to start
a hue and cry against any one kind of
retailer" Philip lie Boutillier. president
OF the National Retail Dry Goods Asso-
citation, declared last night in a talk in
the Romance Of American Industry"
series over the Columbia Broadcasting
System.
In certain sections of the country"
said the head of the association, which
embraces 1858 stores, attacks are be-
ing directed at the chain stores without
the approval of the association, not be-
cause We are enthused by increased
competition, but because this aSsocia-
ton recognizes them as inevitable and
does not believe in hitting below the
belt
las q merchant do not believe ex-
tinction threatens the small independ-
ent store or the chain store or the mail
order house. Apparently each appeals
to definite class of trade and each
offers service distinct in certain fun
damentals."

TELEVISION WORK
SHOWS PROGRESS
Action Is Thrown on Screen Mile
Away From Actual
Scenes.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SCHENECTADY of to-
morrow-outdoor scenes flashed upon
a Six-foot screen in the theater-is a
possibility in the laboratories of today.
Experiments are under way here in
which 1t has been possible to televise,
without artificial lighting aid, events
transpiring in the open and reproducing
in a nearby laboratory radio pictures of
trafhc going over q bridge in addition to
other scenes.
Experiment Works.
Success in development of the appa-
ratus which may considerably extend
the scope of television, even to the
possibility Of glimpseS of a base ball
or foot ball game via radio trans
mission, was indicated by the proiec-
ton upon q screen six feet square in
local theater of action taking place
in studio a mile away.
While only head and shoulder views
OF the images could be seen, there was
no contradiction of the fact that en-
tire scenes could be transmitted.
The theater demonstration gave the
public an insight into the progress that
has been made by DR. E. F. w. Alex
anderson, pioneer television research
engineer of the General Electric Co.
staff. in his efforts to overcome the OBJ
stacles of practical vision by radio. The
showing Included the playing of an
baton of It's leader standing before the
distant televfsor whose image was pro-
tected upon the large screen on the
stage.
1t was made possible through the de-
velopment of light source in the COM
binatton receiver protector which per-
mitted the showing of lights and shad-
III rlAfa 70
the fact that the picture was life size,
DR.. Alexanderson explained.
Scope of Picture to Be Enlarged.
DR.. Alexanderson does not feel that
ultimate television will be restricted to
mere heads and shoulders, with his
laboratory work cited as an example Of
what the future may bring. He has
designed an outdoor televisor whose
photo-electric eye would look over any
thing within its range and reproduce
with considerable fidelity what was
taking place.
While this instrument is considerably
in the experimental stage, the engineer
has used it in the transmission for
reproduction upon large screen views
of the Great Western Gateway Bridge
spanning the Mohawk River near the
laboratory, showing plainly the move
ment of Vehicular traffic. Other pic
lures have included scenes visible from
the laboratory windows. The daylight
pickup device in outward appearance
resembles q large studio photograph
camera.
"Past Experience Comforting"
"Television today is in the same state
as radio telephony in 1915" DR.. Alex
anderson said. we may derive some
comfort from the experience of the past,
but on the other hand we are not sure
that the analogy is juStifiable and that
television will repeat the history of
radio telephony"
The projection of a 6-foot picture
has been another milestone in the
progress of which he has been an
important factor. Three years ago Dr.
Alexanderson produced a picture only
3 inches square. Last Fall it had
grown to IA inches square, and now 1t
has taken q considerable leap in size.

Behind the MicrophOne
BY THE RADIO EDITOR.

His previous activities had been
divided between a printing shop
and the stand of choral conduc-
tor in churches in Worcester,
Mass.
THE s. s. America Of the United
States Lines sailed from New
York for Hamburg last week with
a Photoradio Receiver installed in
the smoking room. The device is
capable of recording pictures,
stock market reports, bulletins
and other facsimile material by
radio. A regular service, supple
menting the present ship news
paper but not supplanting it, will
begin when the America sails
from Hamburg for New York,
June 10.
Engineers of the Radio Corpora
ton of America worked night and
day since the America arrived in
New York 10 days ago installing
the apparatus and making tests.
The receiving instrument is the
visible recording apparatus of the
latest invention, combining the
results of experiments by engi-
neers of the General Electric Co.
and the Westinghouse Electric
and Manufacturing Co. as we'll as
those of the Radio Corporation of
America. It likewise carries for
ward the very recent successful
test of a visible recorder designed
by Charles J. Young, then of the
General Electric Co. and now of
the R. C. A. Victor Co., by which
copies of the front page of a
newspaper were transmitted from
Oakland, Calf, to Schenectady,
N. Y.
Prison wardens are fast adopt
ing the idea of "a radio in every
cell" Joliet Penitentiary of Illi-
noiS; latest to install central
radio system for the entertain
ment of its inmates, followed the
examples of Eastern State Peni-
Tertiary at Philadelphia, Ohio
State Penitentiary at Columbus,
and Iowa State Penitentiary at
Fort Madison.
1t is too early, judging from the
comments of various wardens, to
determine just what effect radio
will have on prison discipline
There were 1000 earphone sets
in use in the Ohio Penitentiary
where prisoners we're allowed to
tune in any programs they chose
and where loud speakers have
even been installed in the work
shops during big sports broadcasts
like foot ball and base ball games
The Federal penitentiary at
Leavenworth and the State
prisons Of Massachusetts, and
Colorado have been considering
the installation of radio sets
Many of the reformatories
throughout the country have
radios for their inmates either in
their cells or in assembly rooms
In many cases, the prisoners are
allowed to purchase their radio
sets from their earnings in the
prison shops.

PHOTORADIO ENTERTAINS
MANUFACTURER GROUP
Brother Of Tslevision Comes Into
Own 90 Newspaper illustrates
Facsimile Transmission

Fac-Simile transmission, or photoradio,
the tull-grown brother of teleViSion, is
coming into its own these days.
One of the most fascinating side
shows Of the annual Radio Manufac-
turers Convention in Atlantic City last
week was. the short-wave photoradio
system installed by an afternoon New
York newspaper 10 bring facsimiles of
newspaper pages and pictures to the
convention and show. Almost coinci-
dent with this the Radio Corporation
of America disclosed that it will this
month inaugurate ship-to-shore fac
smile service on a commercial basis-a
large stride forward in this visual art.
In facsimile transmission pictures or
printed words are reduced to radio i'm
pulses, hurtled through miles of space
and then translated back into their
original forms. 1t amounts to sending
a picture by radio.
