MONEY MUDDLE BACK TO UNCLE SAM TO SOLVE England Wants Us to Attend Another Supreme Council Session. By United Press LONDON, July 12.—Europe, witjt her financial muddle moving toward a crisis, beckoned to America today. England plans to feel Washington out on the matter of participating in the next meeting of the allied supreme council, where attempts will be made to untangle the European financial maze. Following the cc aference between Lloyd George and Poincare in London, called by the British premier to discuss the situation arising from the German demand for a moratorium, there will be a meeting of the supreme council. England is of the opinion that there is a possibility of American participation in European councils once the German reparations problem is decided. French Are Opposed By United Brest PARIS, July 12.—Strong French opposition to a three-years’ cash moratorium for Germany, which has been informally agreed upon by Great Britain, Italy and Belgium, was believed certain today. John Bradbury, representative of Great Britain on the allied reparations commission, made the proposal at an unofficial meeting of the commission. Italy and Belgium immediately agreed. This led to vigorous protest from Dubois, the French member. On the plea of Dubois, definite action wms postponed. The Frenchman left hurriedly for a conference with Premier Poincare. In addition to agreement on the three-year’s moratorium, Great Britain, Italy and Belgium informally decided upon an important reduction in payment in kind.

Charge Radio Batteries * by Use of A. C. Rectifier

By PAUL F. GODLEY. America’s Foremost Radio Authority. Charge your own radio set storage battery and save money. To most amateurs this problem of caring for the storage battery seems more formidable than it really is. Common practice has decreed the use of an alternating current supply for power and light purposes. This type of current is not continuous. It flows in one direction, dies out, reverses itself and then flows in the opposite direction. In the modern commercial system these reversals usually occur from twenty-six to sixty times a second. There is no ready method whereby the vacuum tube of the radio set may depend directly upon the commercial alternating current lighting system for Its supply. The changes in current direction take place at a rate of speed which makes an audible tone.

"STORING” CURRENT FOR VACUUM TUBE. These effects are of such intensity as completely to drown out even the strong incoming radio Bignals. Eventually, suitable appliances will be devised to make this alternating current available for use in the tube detector. But they haven’t been developed yet. Filters Vacuum tubes may be supplied now with some success from lighting systems using “direct” or continuous current. Such systems are usually used in large buildings, hotels, and on 1 board ship.

But to use even this source of current requires a "filtering” in order that any irregularities in its character —any minute risings and fallings—may be smoothed out before the current is ready for consumption by the tube. These filters are rather cumbersome and have not yet become popular. Today, standard practice calls for the use of a storage battery or “accumulator.” Most persons are familiar with this device because there is one on every modern automobile. And most users of the storage cells depend upon their garage men for re-

(~\ VERIO great agricultural states of the Middle West, the farflung distribution system of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is rendering an essential service to 30 million people. The immense value of this service may be visualized when it is known that more than one-half of the farms in the states served are equipped with automobiles. The Census Bureau report on this point is as follows: Indiana 46.4$ Illinois 53.0$ Michigan 40.2$ Wisconsin - - - * - - 49.6$ Minnesota 57.1$ lowa 73.1$ Missouri 31.0$ North Dakota - - - - 56.7$ South Dakota - - - 69.4$ Kansas 62j0$ Average - - 53.8$ Average for U. S.- 30.7$ In other words, the need for gasoline and lubricants, in percentage Eer farm, in the states served by the tandard Oil Company (Indiana) is nearly twice that of the United States as a whole. On the farm, petroleum products are an absolute necessity. The farmer is preoccupied with his task —the mighty task of raising food for the world.' He must have petroleum products when and where he needs them. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is prepared to give a dependable, always-on-the-job service which the exigencies of farming demand. 6600 tank wagons are in operation this' summer 0f1922. These tank wagons make deliveries to the farmer’s door. When necessary they serve him in the field—at his work. They reach fam at dependable intervals and serve him with dependable products. Only a vast, centrally administered organization could render * this effective type of service. Standard Oil Company (Indiana) 910 So. Michigan Ave., Chicago, 111.

charging and conditioning them. That is expensive and often inconvenient. Recharging To recharge one’s own radio battery Is a comparatively simple matter. There are several economical "rectifiers” on the market. To the consistent user of the vacuum tube outfit, the device will soon pay for itself. To recharge the battery it is only necessary to get one of these, connect it to a light socket, turn on the chrrent, and attach a pair of “clips” to the battery. Prices of battery chargers suitable for homb use range from about sl2 to $lB. Until more convenient methods for vacuum tube supply are perfected, the use of such rectifiers wUI prove most economical.

CONTROL OF COAL INDUSTRY Two Flans Before Congress Aside From Harding's. By United Press WASHINGTON, July 12.—Government control of the coal 'industry to protect the public during clashes between miners and operators was planned today, no matter what results are accomplished by President Harding. One plan would throw the control of coal mining into the hands of either the Senate Labor Committee or a Joint committee of the House and Senate. Another would embody the regulatory features of a bill introduced several months ago by Senator Frelinghuysen. New Jersey. This bill was withdrawn at the time because of a storm of opposition.
