Coon-San Holl! The purists are having their troubles trying to purge the language of radio. Congress has turned thumbs down on the word “radiocast,” and in writ- ing its radio measures, sticks to the more homely and familiar ‘“broad- cast.” Congress, however, declines to drop the “ed" in the past tense, de- spite the anguish of the language sharps. And it looks askance at “frequencies,” and uses instead the more expressive “wave length.” In the committee hearings this week on the White radio bill, the absence of ‘“radiocast” and ‘“frequency” was rmirted to go unchallenged. Maj. . O. Mauborgne, testifying as an Army expert, let out a little protest at “broadcasted,” but the committee members only smiled. Then some one recglled thafi Secretary of Commerce Hoover, in hls statement to the com- mittee, himself had said “broad- casted.” .

But the closest the tramers of the White bill came to falling into line was when, on one or two occasions, they used one word as a definition of the other, thus, “frequency, or wave length.” ~ Wher- ever only one term is used, it is in- evitably the more popular one. “Radiocast” does not appear in the bill at all, even as a synonym for “broadcast.” Despite the fact that no member of the House committee has been able to provide a clear definition’ of the word “ether” as applied to radio, that term is clung to and is used frequently in the explanatory parts of the measure. The best definition of “‘ether” that could be obtained was the one offered by Secretary Hoover, namely, that ether is *‘what is left in a vacuum tube after everything else has been pumped out.” Acquitted of Manslaughter. James Jackson, colored,’ has been acquited by a jury in Criminal Di- vision 1 of a charge of manslaughter in connection with the death of Emerson C. Brown April 12, 1925.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 9, 1926. |SECOND VICTOR CONGERTS IAN. 14 Alda, Ruffo and Flonzaley Quartet to Appear in Radio Program. Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, January 9.—The sec- ond radio concert in the series in- augurated by the Victor Talking Ma- chine Co. with the Borl-McCormack program will be broadcast Thursday evening, January 14, with Frances Alda, soprano, and Titta Ruffo, bari- tone, of the Metropolitan Opera, and the Flonzaley Quartet as the artists. As was the case with Victor's New Year program, the concert will be broadcast direct from the Vietor com- pany's New York recording studios through statfon WJZ and the other stations of the R. C. A. network. Coming on the heels of the Mc-Cor- !nxu’k-Borl concert, which was heard in three continents by the largest audience that has ever tuned in on a radio program, the broadcast of next Thursday evening also will be one of the year's significant radio events. Not only are the artists of world-wide reputation, but their programs have been developed with unusual care from repertoires that are extraordi- narily large. To Be Heard on WRC. The concert will begin at 9 p.m., Eustern standard time, and will be heard from statfons WJZz, New York; KYW, Chicago: KDKA, Pittsburgh; WRZ. Springfield, Mass.; WGY, Sche: nectady, and WRC, Washington. Mme.' Alda, whose amazing versa- tility is only one of her many claims ratic fame, was first heard the radio one year ago, on Janu- 15, when she sang in the first Victor ‘series of broadcasts. So suc. cessful was that appearance that it was decided to schedule her on the closest possible date to the anniver- ary of her radio debut nce making her debut at the Paris Opera Comique, n “Rigoletto, she has scored one success after an- other, and a bare listing of the roles she has created would require a lengthy paragraph. She has an ex- traordinarily colorful voice, which has been demonstrated to be pecullarly adapted to radio broadcasting. Ruffo’s First Concert on Air. Ruffo, who has for some years been one of the operatic sensations of Europe, South America and the Unit. States, is making his first radio ppearance with the coming concert. The most recent of his brilliant tri- umphs has been in “La Cena Delle Beffe," at the Metropolitan. e is also being heard this season in “‘Pag- lacei” and others of his long and in- teresting repertoires The Flonzaley Quartet, one of the world’s outstanding musical organi- zations, has for years held a unique position in the colorful fleld of cham- ber music. Like Mme. Alda, they are being heard for the second time over the air on a Victor program, their first broadcast having been on Janu- ary 29, 1925. The quartet is com- posed of Adolfo Betti, first violin; Al- fred Pochon, second violin; Iwan d’Archambeau. cello, and Nicholas Moldavan, viola. Mme. Alda, Ruffo and the Flonzaley Quartet will have four numbers each, selected from among their most note- worthy successes FIFTEEN MINUTES OF RADIO EACH DAY BY JOSEPH CALCATEERA. All Rights Reserved.

Part 11 The diagram of figure 1 shows the condition which exists in a telephone circuit when a continuous current, un- affected by voice variations, is flowing in the circuit. The current is a steady one, flowing in one direction with con- stant amplitude. As soon as a sound affects the trans- { mitter so that it changes the resist- ance in the circuit the result is the | formation of a current which varies in intensity in accordance with the ten- dency of the voice to increase or de- A Fig.l Fig.?.

A continuous wave of the type pro- duced by a continuous wave generator is shown in figure 3. The frequency and amplitude of such a wave is uniform. Figure 4 shows the result of super- imposing the voice wave of figure 2 on the continuous wave of figure 3. The frequency of the continuous wave is unaffected, but the amplitude of its individual waves is molded by the voice wave, to conform with the am- plitude of the voice wave at corre- sponding time interval Forms Direct Current. Careful consideration of the dia- grams will show that the voice wave shown In figure 2 form a direct current which varies in amplitude above and below the normal value A-A, but which flows in the same direction, as _shown by its position above the ©0-0 line.

PARIS, January 9 (®).—The Bourse, which was closed on Saturdays during December, because brokers were swamped with orders and needed ex- tra time to arrange their affairs, will continue to close on Saturdays throughout January and February, it was announced yesterday. ‘The Saturday closing during Decem- ber also was due ifi part to a strike of broker clerks, who protested they did not have enough room in the old Bourse Bullding to transact the large amount of business to be handled. As part of a compromise brokers agreed to the Saturday closing. CHICAGO LIVE STOCK MARKET CHICAGO, January 9 (Special).—It was a regular Saturday llive stock market today, with hogs furnishing the only feature. They dropped 16 to 50 cents, with underweight lots taking most of the decline. Choice light butchers went at 12.00 and down, while underweight stock made 12.25 to 12.40 for prime animals. Bulk of packing hogs were 9.75 to 1010. Pigs were hit hard and dropped to_12.50. In cattle trade a feature was good demand for yearling steers, which ad- vanced 15 to 25 cents for the week. Feeding steers also were in demand at 15 to 25 higher prices. Best steers stopped at 11.50. Cows and heifers were steady. Bulls dropped 15 to 35 for the week. Lamb trade was of little account, with small lots going unchanged. For the week prices held about stead: Fat lambs placed at 16.00 to 16.25. Feeding lambs dropped £5 to 50 and yearlings were up that much. . CHEAPER CIGARS USED. LANCASTER, Pa., January 9 (Spe- cial)—Tax Collector W. P.

WEST. Special Dispateh to The Star. NEW YORK, January 9.—Money considerations 'have entered more prominently into the markets of the past week than they have in a long while. With the other 11 regional banks charging 4 per cent as their minimum rediscount, the 31 per cent rate at New York seemed anomalous. Also there was an obvious discrepancy be- tween the low bank rateand the high- er rate prevailing in the open market. An adjustment has been discussed for months past. But it has been under- stood that the New York bank was working in close understanding with the Bank of England, which since last August has been putting no obstacles in the way of a free gold movement and yet in the meanwhile has been endeavoring to maintain its own finan- cial position and hold sterling around parity. Aim of Reserve Move. With the turn of the year and the consequent removal of the customary year-end strain upon English bank re- "sources, the necessity of keeping the officlal discount at New York abmo.- mally low was removed. The New York authorities, as it appears, took the first occasion to put the New York bank on a level with the others so as not to divert that part of the return- ing crop money flow belonging to New York to other banking centers. This seems to be the main_signif- icance of the action of the Federal Reserve Bank in the New York dis- trict on Thursday in raising the re- discount from 315 to 4 per cent. The outside money market was prepared for the news, as was shown by the fact that on Friday the call money renewal remained at 4 per cent. which was the lowest sinde the early Autumn, while time money was stiil quoted below the 5 per cent at which it had long been held. Effect Hard to See Yet. The effect of the raising of the bank rate in the investment market could scarcely be judged by the slight re- action which occurred Friday. Bonds and other investments have been go- ing up all week, and moderate setback was in order under any circumstances. ‘The same could be said of the specula- tive market. It had been advancing steadily over the holiday perfod and into the first few days of January. On general principles some sort of a downward turn was to have been ex- pected. That no important selling oc- curred on the bank rate action and that parts of the market promptly recovered were indications that there had been no real change in the Wall Street situation. Outlook Continues Good. The outlook is for continued ease in money and for not only a maintenance of the present activity in business, but an increase in certain lines during the first quarter. It is on these two grounds that the stock market now rests. Last year was a period of com- paratively low prices, yet of falrly MONEY MORE VITAL FACTOR IN WALL STREET DURING WEEK Higher Bank Rate Causes Only Moderate Selling. Outlook Is Consideréd Bright for Continued Activity in Business. satisfactory earnings in the leading industri The tendency for the present vear is to accept theme price levels which cannot be altered under the existing wage scales, and to in- crease the profit margin through com- binations which will reduce overhead. These combinations are chiefly ex- pected among the railroads and among the oil companies. But there is also a strong suggestion that they will be extended elsewhere, especially among the makers of railroad equipment. Quite possibly similar mergers may take place in the automobile trade. What these alliances can do in the way of bringing down costs and giv- ing fairly good earnings results under low prices has been illustrated dur- ing the last 12 months in the copper industry. French Crisis Persists. During the coming week the French Parliament is to reassemble and will take up, first of all, the financial problem. This problem has grown more serious during the recess be- cause the further enormous inflation has occurred in the French paper currency. An increase of nearly 900.- 000,000 francs in paper notes was dis- closed in the latest statement of the Bank of France. This increase came about not as the result of government borrowing; on the contrary, the government was paying off on balance to the bank. Tt was due wholly to private needs. The French franc has been sustained in the face of this crisis by the hope that the new French minister must be able to put through a program of reform which will really balance the budget. It has been a hope which has been entertained many times dur- ing the last three years, and has not been realized. CQommodity Speculation Slackens. Speculation in the commodity mar- kets has quieted-down. When cotton prices a month or so ago drew close to the level of actual cost of praduc- tion, it signified a turning point. Since then a moderate recovery has taken place, but there is no disposition’ to carry the recovery far in the face of the large overhanging supply. There will have to be more of an improve- ment in the domestic mill demand and more of a livening up in the export trade in order for the advance to be carried much further. In the mean- time cotton organizations are agitat- ing, like wheat organizations were a year ago, for a reduction in planting. ‘Wheat speculators, playing with the remnant of the old crop in which the farmers have no longer an interest, pushed their advantage as far as they could in the closing week of 1925. Since then they have s1spended activi- ties and are looking for more proof than they have at presont that Euro- pean buyers are willing to follow the market up.

This was due to fears that the higher rate in New York, which still is 1 per cent lower than the Lon- don rate, may eventually lead to the withdrawal of American funds from London.
