«Good building materials have the same merit as Class A bonds. They rep- resent permanent value”.... 4 HE choice of materials is one of the most far-reaching decisions you make when building. Often, payingafew dollars more at the time of building saves many hundreds later. Bankers appreciate this fact, and such men as Nathan S. Jonas advise you to build for permanency— with lasting Copper, Brass and Bronze. In skyscraper or modest home, Copper flashings, gutters and downspouts, Brass or Copper pipe and solid Brass or Bronze hardware and lighting fixtures invariably prove an economy in the long run. These metals cannot rust. Theygive satisfactory service for the life of the structure. 4 4 4 The Building Service Department of the COPPER & BRASS RESEARCH ASSOCIATION, 25 Broadway, New York, will be glad to ad- vise you without charge about the uses and proper application of these metals. SOUND ADVICE FROM A SOUND SOURCE «BUILD FOR PERMANENCY, WITH COPPER, BRASS AND BRONZE" New GILLETTE BLADE and RAZOR SHORTEN your daily shaving time; 70 more wz]n’ng— no more cut towels 'OUR WORK ends when your shave ends, with this New Gillette Blade and Razor. Simply turn guard at right angles, re-tighten, rinse under hot running water and shake dry. Think what this means. Think of the time and temper saved. No more cut towels! No more tedious fiddling with razor parts that always seem to find the drain pipe. This one improvement alone is worth the price of the New Gillette. Yet it is only one of many pleasing changes that you will find in this new razor and blade. “Ragor pull,” for instance, won’t bother you any amore. “Razor pull,” Gillette engineers found, is caused by nicks and dents that are put in the corners of a razor when it is dropped. In a precision instrument such as TSEPARMTION CT DOUBLNG BAOS Short Wave Facilities for Radio Transmission Are Increased. « BY MARTIM CODEL. Advanced radio technique was given the formal sanction of legislative fiat yesterday when the Federal Radlo Com- mission ordered technical readjust- . | ments in the use of short waves which will have the effect of doubling their number. The order goes into effect at the end of this year. Adopting recommendations of the world’s leading radio technicians who met last September at The Hague, the commission authorized the narrowing of separations between radio channels from tolerances of two-tenths of 1 per cent to one-tenth of 1 per cent. This means that sharper tuned operation by short-wave radio stations 1 increase the number of wave lengths twofold. In transoceanic radio communica- tlons alone it means an increase in the number of channels available for world use from 624 to 1,248. Effects Cannot Be Gauged. Pending negotiations with Canada, the effec on the division of domestic or inland channels among North Ameri- can countries cannot be gauged. That the order will have a sweeping effect upon all short-wave services, including foreign and domestic point-to-point ra- dio communications, telephony and tel- evision, is apparent. Highly technical in character, the order means a reassign- ment of all the channels below the zero point on the average broadcast re- celving set. ‘Broadcasting is not affected, for pro- gram radio in the present state of radio technique requires what is known as & wide band of frequencies. It is not possible to tune as sharply the chan- nels required for music and speech as it is the channels employed for code dots and dashes. Since the United States has registered some 70 per cent of the world's two- tenths per cent transoceanic channels between 6,000 and 23,000 kilocycles, the adoption of the new order means that this share is reduced to 35 per cent. All countries hlvlnfntuunm using or proposing to use the international short waves are required by treaty to register NATHAN 8. JONAS NATHAN S.

First, the corners of the razor are reinforced with sturdy . lugs of extra metal that stand a lot of abuse. Second, even if you should dent these lugs the blade is no longer held 7 at the corners, so no harm results from dropping. Look at the new blade, and note how the corners are cut out. . The old center posts are gone. They stuck through 9. the blade and accidentally caught and dulled the blade edges. Notice how the guard teeth are rounded back farther to meet the skin more smoothly, more comfort- ably. Please note, too, that the new blade-ends are square, not round, for safer handling with wet fingers. These ends shave closer around the tight little corners of mouth, nose and ears. The price of the New Gillette Razor, 24K. gold plated, cased in a beautiful box, and equipped with New Gil- lette Blade, is one dollar. The New Gillette Blade is one dollar for ten and 50c for five.

CHICAGO, April 15.—Branded universally as a crime center, Chicago in 1920 reduced its homicide rate 19.5 per cent in the face of increases in other important cities, Police Commis- sioner Russell related to Mayor ‘Thompson in his annual report. Installation of radio communi- cation with cruising squad cars was cited by the commissioner as an important factor in tre fight against law violators. ‘The chief reported addition of 750 men to the force under city council authority, but said 4,000 more were needed to give adequate protection. their selections with the International Bureau of the Telegraph Union at Berne, Switzerland. Companies May Lose. lieved of the onus of seeking to grab the major rtion of the international waves, its communications companies stand to suffer the loss of some of their present waves. The Radio Corporation of American, for example, utilizes 65 two-tenths per cent channels and 31 of the so-called midchannels for its transoceanic services to about 35 for- eign countries. Mackay Radio & Telegraph Co. has 40 ordinary channels and 12 midchan- nels. The American Telephone & Tele- graph Co., Press Wireless, Inc., and the Robert Dollar radio subsidiary, Globe Wireless, Ltd., also have assignments of transoceanic waves. by North American News- Der Alliance.) ———e FRENCH BUDGET VOTED Senate Gives Overwhelming Ap- proval of Measure of Tardieu.
