LIMESTONE HELD CURB FOR COAL MINE BLASTS By the Associated Press. ST. LOUIS, Mo., June 26.—The safe- ty of American coal miners from the hazard of coal dust explosions lies in the use of limestone rock dust, Thomas J. Fear, general superin- tendent of the Inland Collieries Com- pany, Indianola, Pa. told the mid- west coal mining safety conference here yesterday. The use of the lime dust in dusting the mine space increases illumination in the mine haulage ways, he said, preventing accidents, without inter- fering with movement of coal trains in_the mines. ‘With the use of explosives approved by the United States Bureau of Mines, proper lamps and machinery, and the dusting of mine interiors, coul dust explosions can be con- trolled and practically eliminated, he said. The meeting aims to formulate plans for prevention of coal mine d asters which have claimed 544 lives since August, 19; PREDICTS AIR WONDERS. British Minister Describes Future Comforts and Service. LONDON, June 26.—After having taken @ peep into the future. Air Minister Lord Thomson came down to the Hduse of Lords recently and as- sumed the role of prophet. He said in three years' time he hoped to have in the air two kinds of airships suit- able respectively to commercial and naval purposes. In ten years he hoped to see at least six airship constructors competing for orders in this country and building up a great and growing industry, serving the purposes of im- perial communication, bringing people of the empire and the world closer together, and carrying freight as well as mails. . Sometime in the future, the min- ister said, he foresaw the day when noble lords would leave Parliament House on gliders with light engines, and wing their way westward along {he Thames valley or northwards to Scotland. On their way they will need a rest and perhaps they may call in at some great caravanseral floating serene, safe. high up, far removed from terrestrial fuss and noise. VETERANS.ORGANlZE.

HARTFORD, Conn., June 26—A check-up of amateur radio conditions In all foreign countries is being made by the American Radlo Relay League for the purpose of surveying amateur progress throughout the world. In recent months transmitting radio operators have been discovered in countries where it did not seem Possible there could be the slightest interest in any branch of radlo. Apparently there are few places apart from the general paths of progress where experimenters have been unable to obtain equipment for bullding radio sets if they persisted. In countries where their existence has not been recognized they are called bootleg” " operators. In very few countries are there adequate laws which properly define the position of the telegraph code operators, With “these conditions in mind, Charles A. Service, assistant secre- tary of the American Radio Relay League, has sent to radio socleties or individuals in about twenty coun- tries asking for the following: “Digest of government radio laws now in force or pending, relative to amateur or private radio, both receiv- ing and transmitting. Call Letters Asked. “Svstem of call letters used. Num- erals, letters or combinations? Are they assigned by the government or Individuals? Is the call list published and by whom?

What wave lengths and powers are assigned to amateurs by the govern- ment? If there are no government regulations, what power, wave length and type of transmitter (continuous wave, interrupted C. W., spark, etc.) is used? “Approximately how many amateur transmitters, radio telegraph and amateur phones are now operating in your country? “Who is the leading amateur, or- ganization or club in your country? What is the name and address of the leading amateur magazine?” —— WGY to Put on Comedy. “Ruth in a Rush Lindsey Barbee, will be broadcast tonight from WGY.

Part 1. 3 Time was when most radio fans were content to clap a pair of head- phones over their ears and listen to what was going on in the ether. Multitube sets, which were required for loud-speaker operation, cost a lot of money and their operation with the old types of tubes was a costly proposition. But now with the low consumption tubes and the slashing of prices on tubes and parts the multitube set using three or more tubes is well within the means of most families. The little old one-tube phone outfit has been replaced by the multitube loud-speaker outfit. Now here is where a new problem presents itself. With the many types of loud speakers to choose from how is one to know what type or make of loud speaker to get in order to pro- vide the proper volume and tone, Price a Facto: In most cases the determining fac- tor is that of price. Loud speakers range in price from about §3 to $50. In form they range from a simple horn to which the ear- phones used in listening-in can be &(- tached to the fine pieces of mechan- ism which include the latest develop- ment in means for converting elec- trical energy into sound energy and the use of special compositions for the horn. Loud speakers may be divided Into three general classes. The first is that in which an ordinary type of phone receiver ix positioned so that the opening of the phone receiver is placed at the mouth of small open- ing of a horn. In the second type a specially designed phone receiver, larger and more powerful than an ordinary. receiver, is placed at the mouth of a horn SOCIAL SECRETARY BALKS Management of French Presidents Continues Difficult. By the Associated Press. PARIS, June 26.—M. De Fouquieres, director of = procotol—really ~socia secretary to the president of the French republic—sees seven years of worry ahead unless something inter- venes to shorten either his term of of- fice or that of President Doumergue. M. De rouquieres had a trying enough time with former President Millerand. who persisted in wearing made-up bow ties and a terrible gray topper to the most select functions, despite the director's tearful en- treaties that it wasn't good form for the first magistrate to dress so Then for a time it scemed that absent-minded Prof. Painleve might become his seven-year charge and De Fouquieres was distracted. But when M. Doumergue was elected, the social director regained his equilibrium somewha “Here, *'sald he, “is one docile gen- In both of these types the steady pull on the diaphragm of the phone is supplied by a permanent magnet while the variations which produce the movements of the diaphragm are supplied by the colls of fine wire which are fitted over the arms of the permanent magnet so that this mag- net is a combination permanent megnet and electromagnet. In the third class of loud speaker the permanent magnet is replaced by an electromagnet, which is much more powerful than the permanent magnet used in the other two types of "phone receiver loud speakers. This electromagnet is operated from an outside source, usually the A bat- tery of the get. The Ultimate tn Speakers. This last type represents the ulti- mate development In loud-speaker design and gives the greatest volume. While price is in most cases the determining factor in the selection of a loud speaker, and it may be taken as g general rule that the more spent on a loud speaker the better the results obtained, there are other considerations which should be taken into account in selecting the proper type of loud speaker to use with any given type of set. If you already have a set, it will be necessary for you to buy a loud speaker to match. If you have not Yet bought the set you are in a posi- tion to select vour set and speaker with due regard to each others qualities. 1f you have a loud speaker but are thinking of buying or making a new et you may save some money and increase your chances of getting good results by reading this article. To determine what type of loud speaker you should buy, it is neces- rv to have clearly in mind exactly what you expect or require of the strument and to know also what the set you have is capable of pro- ducing_ or supplying to the loud speaker.
