Hops for the early passage of radio legislation by Congress is being aban- doned in the Capital, as the Senate i committee has postponed to the indefi. nite future a resumption of the hear- ings on the Dill and Howell bills. he House committee, meanwhile, has completed its hearings and has turned the White bill over to a sub- BRI Sen T nai A=neafter which the revised measure will be returned to the floor of the House for a vote. Since the opening of the radio hear- ings in both the House and the Sen- ate, It has been evident that whatever concerted opposition to radio legl: lation existed at present would be voiced before the Senate committee rather than before the House. The dl- vergent views also as to what form of legislation is needed at this time that prevail in the Senate are expected to form stumbling blocks for almost any measure that is introduced. It even is belleved probable, in some quarters, that radio legislation, al- though backed by the administration, may be shunted off into committee untii the 1 <ant session of Congress has been ended. & FEW NATibNS RESTRICT FREE RADIO RECEPTION Greece Alone Places Absolute Ban on Listening-In by Foreigners.

Electrons, as I picture them, are nega- tive charges. Well now, if you get the tube filled with them how are you going to cxpect more electrons to fump off the filament? Like charges oppose each other.” That was true enough, but Smith was overlooking the effect of the positive charge on the plate of the tube. The plate charge tends to at- tract electrons against their better judgment. Their inclination to re turn to the filament when they meet & horde of thelr own Kind in the tube space is overcome by their natural attraction for the positive charge im- pressed upon the plate by the “B" battery. Stiil Smith’s speculating was serving to introduce a feature of the tube action that was new to him. “You have stumbled over what known as the space charge,” I told him. “It is a very important feature of tube action because it is one of the situations vou must take into consid eratfon when vou operate the set The amount of current you apply to the filament cr to the plate has an important bearing upon the space | charge of the tube itself, and vice| versa.

The grid, carrying the tuned radio frequencies from the broadcasting stations, then controls this flow of plate current. But there are additional controls of this plate current. They have nothing to do with the change over from radio frequencies to audio frequencies, but ! they have averything to do with re- ception. Unless they are right the set doesn’t work. Types of Controls. “Two controls of the plate current are within easy reach of any radio fan, but the third control requires ! practice if best results are to be had. The filament rheostat is one control. The tube filament must be heated to a certain temperature before it will op- e properly, and it must not be burned too brightly. The second con- trol is the plate voltage. Usually the set is wired so that the detector plate voltage is at a fixed point, but this must be in accordance with the type of tube used And when theé batterfes| commence to give out It is necessary | to rewire the detector plate connection so as to give the plate the rigit potential value. The third control is a balance between filament control, piate potential and the negative space charge “This space charge is the tendency of the tube to retard the rate of flow plate and thus to retard the flow of | plate current from the plate to the | filament back over the bridge of elec more electrons than the v take.
