BILLION DOLLARS SOUGHT 10 MAKE NAVY STRONGER Probe Proposed to Determine Real Needs —Coolidge Approves, By T'nitrrl P-<.<. WASHINGTON. May 2.—The possible necessity of anew naval con Btruction program invi King enormous expenditure is engaging th>- attention of men .hers of tno naval affairs committee So far this session, the committee has reported construction bills authorizing the building of eight cruisers at $11,000,000 eacl: and the reconditioning of six first line ships at a cost of over $18,000,000. But the re port of Admiral Ooortz that the navy was in many fundamental respects far below arms pact strength has awakened the committee to the possible requirement of a thorough going general construction program. As the first step in this Repr sentative Britton, ranking Republican of the committee, introduced a hill authorizing $8,500,000 to eleva e the tut ret gun, of thirteen battleships. As the next step he prepared a reso lullon providing for a complete investigation of the state of the Navy by the committee. Such an Investigation. he said, would continue for several months and resul* in a report on just what the Navy required to bring it back to par. Before preparing his plan for the gun elevation and general investigation. Britten, accompanied by Chairman Madden of Appropriations Committee. conferred with President Coolidge. Britten said the President approved of the investigation outlined in Britten’ sresolulion.

Horrors Girls , Kissing Is Passe

By \ t:.\ Service EWARK. N J„ May 2.—No'*' Vl goes the kiss. Joining the x vast army of things passe. To kiss! It is crude! It is vulgar! It is Victorian! Yes. it is thoroughly unhygienic. But It is enough that the kiss is not stylish, for the fastidious maid certainly is not going to be old-fashioned. That is. as the anti-kissing clubs of Newark have decreed it, to kiss more than once a month belongs to the age of braided hair, corsets, merry widow hats, long stockings, and yes. even bustles. However, one kiss a month, strangely enough, is yet within the bounds of stvie, sophistication and

MERRYMAKERS OF SLATES FOR PRIMARY ACTIVE Report of ‘Organization List' Interests Candidates on Democratic Side, The merry primary election slate makers were hard at work today. Indications were that voters will go into the booths next Tuesday with pockets or handbags stuffed with green, yellow, red, white or blue tickets passed out by the backers of any number of sets of candidates. At the last county primary the slates were so numerous that politicians said they almost lost their effect. Democratic candidates were discussing conferences they said were held in the Indiana Trust Bldg, office of John C. McCloskey, county commissioner, in which John Shea, John W. Holtzman and others were said to have participated. “Organization Slate" A list to be known as the “Democratic Organization Slate" is being prepared, some candidates said. Several weeks ago Democratic County Chairman Russell Ryan declared there would be no “organization slate," that the party officials would keep “hands off,.” Candidates who discussed the reported sate.' they had no proof that Ryan was in any way connected with It. Those Reported on I.lst One story- was that the “organization slate" would include Carleton B McCulloch for Governor: Charles B. Clark for Congressman; James E. Decry for prosecutor; Frank F. Wool ling for treasi rer■ Albert F. Walsinan for sheriff; Vernon. D. Brigham for coroner; Rush F. Pickens for county surveyor: William 11. Flanders for commissioner First district. and George it. Hardin, commissioner Third district. Rejtortcd listing of Flanders was interesting to candidates because John Kitley, present commissioner tv th Me Clou key, is a candidate for renomlnation in the First district.

TWO FORMS OF WAVE TRAP, SHOWING CONNECTIONS OF PARTS.

WAVE TRAP INEXPENSIVE AND SIMPLE Device Aids in Elimination of Reradiation and Interference, By ISRAEL KLEIN, NBA Service Radio Editor. .yj j HIDE DX is the rage, the wave XfJ trap ought to be handy for fans troubled with local inter sere nee. Especially is this simple contrivance helpful In elimination of nearby broadcasters and in reducing to a minimum reradiation from an oscillating receiving nt Any one with the least mechanical ingenuity and at little expense can ! build this wave trap. It consists of the following parts: A threeineh, thin cylindrical form, four inches long, and composed of a good non-conducting material. \ few feet of No. 22 or 20 DCC wire. \ good 23 plate variable condenser, not vernier. A switch and five switch points. Where great difficulty Is encoun tered In tuning out a local station, because cf its extreme proximity, and where there aie more nearby broadcasters trying to force their programinto your receiving set, the trap shown 'n diagram at right should h e used. Simpler Form But in case of only a single viola tor in your district, the simpler hook up will do. This is constructed as follows: Wind the 22 IXV wire around the tuhin gfor al>out thirty-five turns an 1 hook one end to the aerial lead in and the other direct to the aerial binding p'st of th receiver. Shunt the condenser across thb two terminals of : the coll. To operate this trap, set the dial of the tuner in your receiver a little off from the local station that you wan* eliminated and adjust the trap variable condenser until the local station s, signal is as faint as you can possibly get it. Then tune In the distant station and again adjust the trap circuit. This careful adjustment should be made without vernier attachment on the wave-trap condenser, so that you may know At exactly what point to set the condenser whenever you want to tune out the local station. In c.ase of more trouble than from Just one local station, the more complicated wave trap should be used. For More Violators On top of th 35 turns of wire and In the same direction, wind 10 turns of the same wire, midway lietween the terminals This Is the primary and the larger co l the secondary of a sejmmte Inductance. The primary of ten turns should be tapped every second turn, so that any station desired may be efiminated hy vn,ria.noe not only of the condenser, but of the primary Inductance. in this case, the variable condenser is shunted across the secondary, bu; the aerial lead-in is brought direct to the primary coll of th wave trap and

the switch connected to the aerial binding post of the receiver. If the materials used in this device are efficient, the receiver should be very selective. Double silk or cottoncovered wire should be used, but never enameled or any other form of wire. The tubing must be thin and of hard rubber or other good dielectric material. Os all parts .the condenser must be best. It must have extremely low loss, designated so by tjie manufacturer, and must be efficiently built. Be careful to keep this device about a foot away from the receiver, so as not to couple it too closely and affect reception rather than help it. Record Broadcasting Although Class B stations are not permitted to broadcast phonograph music, one of the largest record manufacturers is planning a station from which the songs and other selections of famous by-gone artists may be put in the air. or this special purpose, perhaps, permission may be obtained for the erection of a Class B studio.
