SUICIDE’ RIGHT NOT DENIED TO ANY CANDIDATE Congressman’s Oath Permits His Advocacy of Change in Constitution. Jo the Editor: Docrv is absolutely right in Ills exhaustive argument, that it is no violation of a Congressman's oath to advocate an amendment of the Constitution. If any person is seriously claiming that it would he a violation, he should be sent to the Home for the Feebleminded, or arrested for false pretenses. Judge Deery is also absolutely right in his the makers of the Constitution did not favor sumptuary laws. There is no reason to question that if a prohibition clause had been offered in the original constitution. Alexander Hamilton would have joined with Thomas Jefferson in opposing any such national power. But Judge Deery is absolutely wrong in his statement that “the advocates of simptuary legislation were aide to hare written into our Constitution the power of passing sumptuary laws.” There is no such provision in the Constitution. The • •‘ghteenth amendment is itself a sumptuary law. It prohibits Intoxicating liquors for beverage purposes. The only power it gives is for the enforcement of this prohibition. Judge Deerv is of course familiar with the fact that the courts of this country long since settled the status of beer and wine as intoxicating liquors. He is familiar with the legal, principle that when a phrase with a settled legal construction is used in a statute, it is used in that established sense. There is no possible question that the constitution u-iiits beer and wine. The unfortunate situation in Indiana mat Dr. Sanders and Mr. Turk are seeking nominations on propositions to permit beer and wine by law in defiance es the constitution, which they must take oath to (Oipport. These candidates have a clear right to ask for nomination on this platform; and the Democratic party lias a perfect right to commit political suicide by nominating them, and thereby adopting this platform, if a majority of the Democrats so desire. The important thing now is that the Democratic voters should understand exactly whaf they are asked to do. J. P. DL'NX. New WGY Station Isjto Broadcast Station W. G.

Vacuum Tube Is Needed to Transmit Speech by Radio
"DAILY RADIO FEATURE -
BY R. Is DUNCAN. Director, Radio Institute'of America. Radio waves sent out b.v means of the charge and discharge of a condenser through a circuit containing an inductance are all right for code messages. But they will not transmit speech or music. A All transmitters broadcasting speeches and music employ the vacuum tube to generate their output. The components of this vacuum tube—sometimes referred to as valves or attdian tubes—are made of three elements; a tungsten filament, a copper or nickel grit! ami an aluminum or nickel placed in a highly vacuumed glass tube. There are two taps taken from the filament one from the plate and the other from the grid. These are drawn through the base of the tube and connected to small posts. Current is supplied to the filament until it is brought to incandescence and this heated filament emits electrons. These electrons are the smallest pieces of matter known and carry the smallest known charge of negative electricity.
U. S. Radio Expert itIUAM D. TERRELL. 1 WASHINGTON, April 21.—Radio fan®, meet -William D. Terrell. He's Uncle Sam's own radio expert. His official title Is chief radio iispeetor of the United States Department of Commerce. Ills headquarters are at Washington. Since radio communication has become so popular ar.d widespread, Terrell's office has been flooded with inquiries. Many of his queries are answered directly by radio through the air. Pici ture shows Terrell receiving a message.
Positive current is passed to the plate in the tube and the electrons are -drawn to the plate through the vacuumed space You will recall that simple iftagnetism teaches us that bodies of dissimilar charges attract—a positive charge will attract a negative, but will repel another positive charge. The vacuous space between the filament and plate is conductive in one direction only. The negative of both the plate and filament currents forms a common negative. The grid is placed between the filament mul the plate and acts as a controlling element of the elctroa currents between filament and plate. Sine the plate in the tube has only a positive potential, the electrons thrown off by the filament are strongly attracted through the vacuum and an increased current will flow. This acts as an accelerator of the current. Ry proper regulation of controlling devices in a vacuum tube transmitting set, the tube is made a supreme produetor of magnetic wares. To show its advantage over the system employing the charge and discharge of a condenser through an inductance as previously des-

FIRST RADIO SHOW OPENS Leaves Nothing for the Fan to Desire. DETROIT, April ”I.—The first radio exposition In the Middle West attracted immetise crowds to the opening In the exposition hall of the Genernl Motors building, where a veritable fairyland of modern science was spread before them. Mayor James Couzens opened the show with a radiophone address from WWJ, the local broadcasting station. About 109 exhibits, representing manufacturers from the lending radio centers, as well as the local dealers : demonstrated the latest developments in [ radio devices, which were displayed in i attractively decorated booths. Nothing I that has the least bit to do with broad- ! casting, receiving, installations or any- ; thing else connected with radio was j missing. | One exhibit portrayed the evolution of the radiophone. The apparatus shown ranged from the crudest instrument manufactured, as far hack as 1993, to j the latest refinement of the radio wonj der of today. I Another exhibitor displayed radio sets
made especially for eanoe*. Imagine reclining comfortably in a canoe and gliding along to the tune of symphony music. Picnickers and summer resorters were interested in a display of camera radio sets. These outfits have the size and appearance of a camera and maj be carried like one. EMPTY CAR AMFCIft ORANGE, N.
