HANBACK For _more than a year Miller's Herb Extract (formerly called Herb Juice) has been on sale by the Peoples Drug Stores. During this time a special representative for this medicine has been on duty daily at store No. 2, 505 7th St. NW, | to explain this medicine to the hun- dreds that call each week. Thou- | sands have marveled at the way the | Herb Extract overcomes ailments of long standing and, like Miss Han- back, who resides at 1632 G St. SE say that such a remedy cannot be praised_too highly, Miss Hanback said: “For a couple of years I suffered | with rheumatism, and medicine I | used helped very little, my joints would be swollen at times and | the pain was so severe I could hardly| stand it. Then I was also troubled a | | great deal with my stomach, every- thing T ate caused gas to form, the lower part of my stomach felt sore, I felt nervous and was continually taking a laxative. I have now used six bottles of Miller's Herb Extract and as I have often remarked I cannot praise it too highly; first of all it relieved me of the rheumatic pains and that alone was worth all it cost, to say nothing of the other ways it helped me. I am now able to eat anything I want, no sign ot‘ gas or indigestion; in fact every ache and pain is gone and I feel better in every way than I have for years. I can also recommend this medicine as being the ideal laxative and a very good regulator for the entire system.” See the special representa- tives direct from the Laboratories at their headquarters in Peoples Drug Store, 505 7th St. N.W., Washington, also Service Drug Store, 727 King St Alexandria, Va., where they are ow intreducing and ex- plaining the merits of this famous medicine,—Advertisement.

The program will be presented by Countess Olga Al- bani, soprano; Jack Parker, tenor; a .male quartet and a 22-piece orchestra directed by Nathaniel Shilkret. A veritable “Who's Who™ among com- posers of popular music could be made up from the list of those whose songs will be heard during the Raleigh Revue. ‘There will be numbers by Berlin, You- mans, Gershwin, Handy, Romberg and others. The feature will be provided by Phil Ohman and Victor Arden, piano duo; the Rovers' Male Quartet and an %‘c}hestru directed by William Merrigan aly. “Moon of the Fallen Leaves,” “Lovely Night” and “Roses of Picardy” suggest romance in the Cities Service hour.

The_ Clicquot Club Eskimos and the Old Company songalogue are among WRC's other attractions.

These include “In a Gondola,” “Open Thy Heart” and “At the End of a Cobblestone Road.” Assistant Secretary of War F. Trubee Davison will make a brief talk of in- terest to war veterans during the Army Band concert, to be broadcast by WMAL and a network of associated Columbia Broadcasting System stations.

David Mendoza's Orchestra will play a medley of songs from “Bitter Sweet” in the At the Sign of the Green and | White program. Norman Brokenshire |and* Herb Polesie also will contribute ! bits of humorous nonsense. | A talk by J. Francis Moore of the | Chevy Chase Citizens’ Association on | “Organized Citizenship” will be one of WMAL's features of local origin.

Foote, president of the District Medical Society, will speak over WOL tonight at 6:45 o'clock.

There also will be selections on the accordion by Ken Coffman and a talk under auspices of the Retail Grocers' Protective Association. BATTERY RECEIVER STILL HAS ITS USES| Thousands of Homes in Rural Sec- tions of United States Need This Commodity. y the Associated Press. The day of the battery receiver has not passed by any means. Despite thé concentration of ast | two years on the set that gets s cur- rent from the house lighting lines, | there are thousands of homes in the |vast farming regions of the country without this commodity. Thus the country listener for the most part must use batteries if he is going to be clas- sified as a radio fan. While the battery set requires slightly more attention than the AC. its output it not mixed with noises that are picked (up by the house current lines. Neither is there worry about overcoming AC |hum. As"a result the music probably |is more clear-cut, with static the only | reception worry. | Radio market statisticians say that many opportunities remain for the | placement of battery sets on the farm, |eit.er through new customers or | through putting in modern receivers | = | where old models have passed their | period of efficiency. | . Some manufacturers have been pay- | ing closer attention to battery radio de- signed particularly for farm use and as a result this type of receiver has just as many modern embellishments as the AC. “In addition to the farm, a large number of city dwellers still stick to batteries because of their expressed belief that the AC device will not fit the ~ radio_requirements. ‘When difficulty is experienced in bal- ancing out the hum in the Loftin- White amplifier, the trouble can be cured by the insertion of an additional filter condenser. It is connected from | the output side of the choke coil to the iground. The condenser should have a capacity of 1 mfd. at a working voltage of 500 DC. DR. W. E.

By the simple cxpedient of assigning stations to wave lengths staggered be- tweer. those used in the United States and Canada, the Republic of Cuba is seeking to foster a domestic broadcast- ing strugture for local programs, and at the same time enable Cuban radio listeners to hear the programs of léad- ing American stations. With 62 broadcasting stations, Cuba enjoys good radio reception during all but the Summer months, which bring intense static, according to current re- ports to the Department of Commerce. Thirty-six of the stations are located in Havana, all but three using exceed- ingly low powers in order to avoid inter- ference with each other and with Amer- ican broadcasters. Cuba’s plethora of broadcasting sta- tions. most of them developed by for- mer radio amateurs, is undergoing the surveillance of government radio au- thorities at the present time with the object in view of regulating a domestic radio structure that will supply ade- 3ulu programs of local origin. But the emand for American programs is offi- clally recognized. ‘Want American Programs. That Cuban fans have a decided pre- dilection for American programs is evi- denced by the fact that the secretary of communications at times prohibits local broadcasting when an opera or other featured program is scheduled from some American station within range. The distant United States stations most frequently heard in Cuba, accord- ing to the official reports, are WEAF and WJZ, New York; WLW, Cincinnati; WENR, Chicago; WPG, Atlantic City, and KWKH, Shreveport, La,, all in the high-power class. Except in the extreme Southern States, American radio listeners only oceasionally hear Cuban programs, be- cause powers of the Cuban stations are held low in all but two or three in- stances. The highest-powered station in Cuba is CMK, Havana, using 2,000 watts and operating on a channel other- wise exclusively used in Canada. The next highest power is 1,000 watts, used CMW, Havana, while CMC, also of uses 500 watts. Otherwise, powers range from 5 to 300 watts, In Private Hands. All Cuban broadcasting is in private hands, as in the United States. Pehd- ing the enactment of a general law gov- erning all radio, the department of communications his ordered certain modern technical ‘equipment and has prescribed that all programs must. be arlistic. No more than 10 per cent of the time on the air may be devoted to advertising. Direct sales talks detalling prices and descriptions of goods are forbidden. Cube 1 listeners almost invariably buy receiving sets and equipment of Ameri- can make. The government trade re- ports show a brisk business in radio apparatus despite the fact that the market is limited by the relatively small population, 600,000 of which is concen- trated in Havana. Eighty per cent of the sets purchased are the socket power varlety and only 20 per cent battery operated, (Copyright, 1930.) Havana, Miss Etta Taggart To Speak in Behalf of Vote for District Station WMAL will broadcast tomorrow night at 8 o'clock a talk on “National Representation for the District” by Miss Etta L. Tag- gart, the first woman elected to the Citizens’ Advisory Council. Miss Taggart will appear before the microphone under the aus: pices of the Citizens' Joint Cont- mittee on National Representa- tion, which is sponsoring 2 series of radio programs in the interest of a vote for the disfranchised residents of the District.
