The detector and first audio stage tube fllaments are con- trolled by a rheostat and the last stage tube filament is controlled by an independent amperite. ‘The perites automatically pre- vent overloading the tubes which they control. Best results in tone quality and volume are obtained when the detector is operated below its rated voltage, so that this fact makes it necessary to adjust the detector and first audlo stages below the rated voltage. This eliminates the need for an expensive voltmeter and reduces the cost of the set. You will notice that the last audio stage has independent “B" battery and “C" battery connections, thus making it possible to use any type of tube in this stage. ‘The use of push-type sockets and amperites makes it possible to use any combination or type of tube with- out changing the circuit. All that is necessary is to provide the proper am- perRe cartridges, tubes and battery connections.

Developments in radio, as in the automobile indus- try, are proceeding along the lines of constant improvement and perfection of the elements that go to make up the complete receiver. so as to give better tone quality, clearer reproduc- tion, greater selectivity and simpler operation. The five-tube tuned radio frequency ack's Singing Orchestra 5 Entertainers bl 3 g"'d“i)rcria"-':t'?- B Y rogram ; Town mer piano soios circuit with some method of oscilla- tion control still remains the most popular circuit of the time, in spite of the exploitation of a number - of circuits designed to give maximum selectivity through odd-shaped colls and various kinds of bridge d uits. The ‘greater popularity of the st lzht radio frequency circuit without fancy trimmings is due to the ease with which it can be constructed and put. into operation. There is no necessity for matching of tubes, delicate ad- justment of balancing circuits and ap- paratus and no special care need be. taken in wiring the receiver. Special balanced circuits can be ] | that no action could be taken at this time. Renewal of the plea is planned when Westbrook is about te enter upon his imprisonment. RADIO’S BEST OFFERINGS TONIGHT.

RADIO BILL SHOVED 0 SIDE N SENATE Measure Still Has Chance of Passage, But Legislative Jam Increases. Radig legislation has taken its place with the many other measures which have been crowded aside in the Sen- ate to be brought up for consideration | in the closing days of the session. -| Originally planned for Introduction on the floor last week, when it was be- lieved the Senate would adjourn early in June, the Dill radio bill is now awaiting action by the steering com- mittee, which has promised that it will be taken up for action in suf- ficient time before adjournment to permit ample consideration in confer- ence in the event it is passed. The promise was understood to in- dicate that at least two weeks would be given the measure for the course TUESDAY. MAY 25 1926. of its passage, provided the bill is ac- ceptable to the Senate. It is belleved that the bill may be scheduled for consideration this week, and in any case not later than next week. The Senate debate is not ex- pected to require more than two days. Should opposition develop to cause a more prolonged debate, it is predicted that radio legislation will be out of the question at the present session. Speculation is belng made at present as to whether the Dill measure, pro- viding for an independent con™mission to control radio and broadcasting ac- tivities in the United States, would receive the signature of President Coolidge® The President was reported recently as opposed to any action that would create a new commission. He prefers, it is understod, that radio be left in the hands of the Department of Commerce. — Lieut. Haley Retired. First Lieut. William ‘T.
