Furnishing of District water to Ar- lington County, Va., by an extension trom the Dalecarlia Reservoir to the Virginia gide of the~Chain Bridge is | provided in a bill Introduced in the Senate Tuesday by nator Swanson lot Virginia. It was! referred to the District Committee. In the brief time that is given by the delay in calling up the White bill : ouse, advocates of the meas. exerting every effort to sway spinion In favor of passage of the bill ‘While the legislation is believed to “»e agreeable to the House, the situa ion in the Senate is disconcerting. Both the Dill and Howell bills are till in committee, and although an 10uncement has been made that they vill be up again as coon as the House 1as voted on the White meagure, fear 5 felt in many quarters that unless evere pressure is Frought to bear, the ronosed legislation will still be pigeonholed until Congress adjourns. A similar measure has been intro- | duced in the House and authorizes the | Secretary of War to make the con- | nection upon request of the board of upervisors of tha county. The price to be paid for the water would be fixed by the Secretary of War and the | money thus collected deposited in the | | Treasury, the same as all other water | rents. | “Senator Swanson also introduced a | bill authorizing the extension of a | "ewer main through the Fort Mver | »ilitary reservation by the Clarendon ~ommunire Sewerage Co.

FIFTEEN MINUTES OF RADIO EACH DAY BY JOSEPH CALCATERRA Noted Authority on Radio All Rights Reserved. fow to Build the Mohawk Single Dial Receiver—Part IV. The first step In the construction if the receiver is to mount the parts | n the panel and subpanel. First, take he subpanel and’' mount thc parts shown in Figs. 3 and 4 with the heads f the screws, the soldering lugs and he nuts in the position shown. Th nds of some of the soldering lug: iave been' turned through an angl | »f 90 degrees for greater ease in wir ng. Some of the wiring is done along he surface of the subpanel, while in ‘ome cases the soldering lugs can be sent up slightly to clear other wiring. paghett! insulation should be used vherever necessary to eliminate the | rossibilitles of short circuits, In the first steps of wiring, the va -iable condenser 3 would be in the way, 8o this condenser i{s not assem sled on the subpanel until later. After the sockets. binding posts ransform>rs and fixed condensers are wssembled, with. the soldering lugs in he positions shown, you can begin to vire the subpanel. First, however, bend up the soldering lugs attached o the “F" terminals of transformers 8 and 10. 8 Connect on Under Side of Panel. Now run a wire connecting in turn the ‘positive. plus terminal of socket 5, the positive plus terminal of socket 1, the positive plus terminal of socket 9, the positive pl erminal of socket 11 and the positive plus terminal of socket 6. All these connections are made on the under side of the panel, shown in Fig. 4. Solder together the soldering lugs from binding post ter- minals 14 and 15, thus connecting the negative "B’ tery terminal with the positive “ battery terminal and then run a wire from these ter- minals to the ‘wire that connects *he positive terminals of the sockets to- gether. Next run a wire from the “‘B" terminal of condenser 28 to the wire that connects the poeitive socket terminals together. This completes the wiring of the positive “A" bat- tery lead because the connection be. tween the “B" terminal of the grid leak- and the positive “A" battery lead is already made through tho grid leak mounting clip *24,” which is fastened on the socket terminal screw. In the same way the connec- tion between the “A" tarminal of grid leak 26 and the “G" terminal of detector tube 7 is made through the mounting 25, fast¢ned to the grid ter- minal screw of socket 7. Next run a wire from the neeative minus terminal of socket 5 running this wire parallel and alongside the posi- tive “A" battery lead to terminate at the negative minus terminal of socket 6. Then connect together nezative (minus) terminals of socket 7, § and 11. Now solder together the soldering lugs terminal “P" of socket 7 and ter- RADIO SERVICE ~of all kinds.
