N 312 THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 6, RADIO TUBE HELD KEYTOINDUSTRIES Device Declared Asset to < Scores of Uses Outside of Broadcasting Plants. Consider the tubes in your radio set. So many other applications have been found for electron tubes that a large New York publishing house is about to begin publication of a new monthly periodical devoted to what is called the new art of electronics. akin to those in your radio receiving set have radio, auto, visual and industrial uses that are amazing in the extreme. Dr. Lee De Forest, original inventor of the radio tube, probably mnever dreamed that he had discovered a device that would be use- ful for a score of purposes other than radio. “Electronics, crystallized in the elec- tronic tube and photo cell, have pro- duced a series of phenomena that are profoundly affecting industry and com- merce,” says O. H. Caldwell, the former Federal radio commissioner, who will edit the new magazine. Advance Is Swift. “Starting with radio, it has advanced swiftly through sound pictures, wireless telephony and the wireless transmission | of pictures, to the guidance of ships, trains and airplanes. It can measure and select industrial products, detect agricultural pests, discover oil an precious metals in the earth, disclose the internal physical conditions in man, control elevators.” As another observer put it, the elec- tron tube.is not only the “heart” of radio but it is fast being utilized by man to sharpen his physical senses. That the electron tube can hear, talk, see, smell and feel is evident from its application to these, among other uses: Radio, sound pictures, telephony, broad- | casting. telegraphy, carrier systems, am- plifiers, phonographs, measurements, therapeutics, television, counting and grading, musical instruments, traffic control, machine control, . electric re- cording, analysis, aviation, metallurgy, ns and compasses, automatic processing and geophysics. Electron tubes were employed to “smell” smoke and exhaust charges re- cently in the long vehicular tunnel un- der the Hudson River. Physicians are enabled by means of the tube to hear vital organs operating. ADMITS PLACING “BOMB” IN BRITISH MUSEUM Offender Believed Trying for Pub- licity to Get Job on News- paper. _% By the Assoclated Press. LONDON, February 6.—A statement read before the Bow Street magistrates yesterday said that Frank Biggs, charged with an offense under, the ex- plosive substances act, admitted placing the “bomb” which was found in the British Museum Saturday night. “Y put the thing there myself,” the statement quoted Biggs as saying. He | was remanded on bail. The “bomb” found was a homemade affair and was said to have had the approximate explosive capacity of a fire cracker. One story here is that Biggs, inter- ested in journalism, had sought to at- tract attention to himself and thereby get a job on a London paper. | SEEKS POWER INCREASE. By the Assoclated Press. | The Federal Radio Commission yes- | terday took under advisement an appli- catich by Broadcasting Station WRVA, Richmond, Va., for an increase in power from 5,000 to 50,000 watts.

By the Associated Press. LOS ANGELES, February 6.—Dolores Salazar, Spanish dancer and actress, whose testimony thus far in her $30.000 breach of contract suit against Fer- dinand Pinney “Affinity” Earle, artist, has been a recital of events during the heyday of her exotic romance with the artist in 1927, will take the witness stand today in Superior Court for cross- examination. » Miss Salazar, whose suit alleges that Earle promised her work in a motion picture he was producing, yesterday told intimate details of her affair with the artist, which began late in 1926. On December 11 of that year, Miss Salazar said, she went with Earle “up next to God” on the summit of Mullholland drive, Los Angeles, where the artist told her that “ r January 1 I will be free to make you my wife.” She testified that in February, 1927, the artist took her to a church in the outskirts of Mexico City, where a “fake marriage ceremony was performed.” After the ceremony in Mexico City, Miss s.l:mr sald, she went to France with Earle. Earle, who was married two years ago, now lives with ‘his wife in Paris, France. He will testify by deposition. Pending the result of the suit, Miss Salazar's attorneys have attached the artist’s Hollywood property. Asks Bankruptey Judgment. Lester E. Harris, 327 Carrol avenue, Takoma Park, D.
