The writer is receiving numer- ous inquiries regarding various advertised radio devices and equipment, dequesting advice upon their relative merits and, in numerous cases investigated, grossly over rated claims. It must be borne in mind by the experimenter that many es- sentials are required to build a good radio set. For instance, the best transmitting condensers are now constructed with a mica dielectric. The mica must nec- essarily be perfect if the ton- denser is to be a good one, as it suffers large strains. Mica is not a commodity readily available, as it is mined in few and distant places, and the grade required by a conscientious manufacturer hard to obtain. It is true mica ' of a kind can be obtained in large quantities, but not the pure, un- blemished large sheets required for radio engineering. The unprecedented rise of ra- dio to public popularity created a tremendous demand for equip- ment of all kinds. Prior to this demand there were a few old es- tablished manufacturers equipped with good facilities and officered by first class engineers of proven ability. Their output was limit- ed to the small commercial field hh existing after the war. By great efforts they met only a smal! por- tion of the new demand, but they maintained their standards of manufacture and engineering, and the new experimenter who was fortunate enough to deal In their wares was undoubtedly gratified with results. Howgver, the new demand brought new life to "war baby" manufactur- ing concerns which had machin- ery that could be utilized for turning out radio devices. _ Unfortunately, many of the de- vices only had fancy names that deceived the new comer into the radio game. The writer has visited the plants of some concerns and found that a firm with a most imposing name and boasting of miracles in their advertisements merely consisted of an attic, has- tily turned into a smal! workshop to produce some so-called radio equipment. . The woods are full of them The experimenter would do well to deal only with old reliable houses, even if there is a delay in delivery. Results count in any business. Results in radio can only be obtained from sound engineering, based upon tried ex- perimentation and good manu- facturing.

The outward construction of the grid and plate condensers is similar to the leak, the inner con- struction being of copper sheet- ing and good India mica. . The mounting is standard and is substantially built. The leaks come in 34, 1, 1%, 2 and 2% megohm values.

New York, Aug. 24.--Federal cus- toms agents are to-day watching in- coming liners for a man suspected of trying to smuggle thousands of dol- lars' worth of Russian crown jewels into this country. A "tip off" on this alleged smuggling plot has reached the government operatives. The White Star liner Majestic was the first ship visited by the detec- tives. The agents failed to locate their man, but in the course of a searck they found $3000 worth of nndeclared gems among the passeng- ers. KILLED IN AUTO SMASH.

Ottawa, Aug. 24.--Reports from the west of a bumper wheat crop with estimatées varying from 317 to 350 million bushels, are hailed here as accelerating a return to prosperity. The railways, particu- larly, stand to benefit and the man- agement of the Canadian National sends news that this year they hope to wipe out the operating deficit on the system. All of the lines are especially equipped this year for handling the crop and apart from the abnormal traffic resulting there- from a lot of United States busi- ness is being routed through Can- ada. At least $300,000,000 in cash fis expected to get into circulation next fall and winter as a result of the crop.

Washington, Aug. 24.--QGovern- ment reward of $1,000,000 paid in ten annual instalments to any person who discovers a successful cure for tuberculosis, pneumonia, cancer, epi- lepsy or dementia praecox, is propos- ed in a bill introduced yesterday by Representative Sproule, Republican, of IlHnols. Under the bill, a board consisting of the surgeon-generals of the army and navy and the head of the public health service would investigate claims of cures and authorize pay- ment of the reward. Sproule declared passage of his bill would stir scientists to research efforts that would result in cures being found.
