Coâ€"opereâ€" tive contracts will be arranged where possible, and where this can not be done, the hourly wage rates will be on the same basis. In any case, it is ‘up to the man,‘ as the Prime Minister points out, to earn above the minimum by his own afforts. ‘Men employed on relief works on the coâ€"operative sysâ€" tem,‘ says Mr. Coates, ‘will understand of course, that notwithstanding the rate of remuneration mentioned above there is nothing to prevent them re celving more if they earn more.‘ who even in normal times would be classed as ‘unemployables‘ at standard wages, and who in the most favorable circumstances could never hope to earn as much as the average worker. Labor from this class is more or less a loss on the wages paid, and the Govâ€" ernment must stand to lose. In the ciroumstances, however, the Prims Minister is fully justified in the course taken. A curious phenomenon in radio re ception was recently noticed in a florâ€" ist shop underneath one of the large Toronto broadcasting stations. _ For some unknown reason everything that is broadcast or finds Its way into the microphone, while the radio transmitâ€" ter is on, can be beard quite clearly through the faucets in the florist shop with the motal sink acting as a loudâ€" speaker. for this pecullar effect. Music is received with much more volume than speech, although the latâ€" ter can be heard at a distance of three feet when the speaker is talking with loss than average force into the microâ€" phone. The operator of CFCA, E. J. Bowers, reports one evening, while a concert was being broadcast by réâ€" mote control, the music could be heard very plainly outside the locked door of the shop, some ten feet away from the waterâ€"taps. "This, it will be generally agreed, is a very fair and generous offer. Among the unemployed there is doubtless a certain proportion of inefficlents, men radio engin possible c broadcastin cold waterâ€" The owner of the shop, when asked as to whether the continuous flow of music was irksome, replied he did not find it so, and often came to the shop at night to hear a good concert. He has listenod in this manner to church gervices broadcast through CFCA. E. J. Bowers, operator of the broadâ€" casting station, holds somewhat simiâ€" lar views. Since he explained that the station is in no way connected with the pipes, it being thoroughly grounded where necessary, and the leads from the motorâ€"generator to the tubes conâ€" tain more than the required number of radioâ€"frequency chokes and byâ€"pass condensers, it would seam that meâ€" chanical vibration is accountable for this "tap music.‘ The only time that it is bothersome, he said, is when the radtoandâ€"music store across the street opens with its loudâ€"speaker and rebroadcasts above the nofse of trafic. Then I am in beâ€" tween two fires. Just what is the cause of this freak reception has not been definitely es tablished. Samuel J. Ellis, radio inâ€" spector for the Toronto district, has investigated with talephone engineers in an effort to solve the mystery. "We tested every pipe noar by and in other parts of the building, but noâ€" where was the volume as great as at the taps. Nearâ€"by pipes would record to a slight extont when a fiddlestick was used," said Mr. Ellis. This, Mr. Ellis explained, was a small wooden rod, some eighteen inches long and similar in appearance to an ordinary broomstick.
