0^-v Interference Is Lessened by New Receiving Circuit ► * -■* & Washington Radio Corpora tion Announces Perfection of Outfit Which Will * Not “Retaliate."’ Perfection of regenerative radio receiving circuits which will not "re radiate" and cause the worst form of radio interference is announced by Bowden Washington, chief engineer of the Cutting & Waehington Radio corporation of Minneapolis. ‘‘For a long time It has been evl ' ' fcent that ‘transmitting regenerative receiving sets which threw waves into the air and cause squeals and catcalls in neighboring sets are a men ace to the future of radio, and yet Is so vital in increasing volume, range and selectivity could not be the principle of Tegeneration which Abandoned,” said Washington. ‘'Bxperlmrnta have resulted In the perfection of regenerative circuits which retain this volume, range and selectivity, but do not transmit or re radiate. “The first stage of the Teledyne circuit operates in the following man ner,” said Washington. "When a resonant circuit, consist ing of an inductance and a capacity In parallel Is placed in series with the plate circuit of a vacuum tube the grid circuit of which is also re sonated to the same frequency, the resonant plate circuit will produce oscillations and somewhat off this resonant point, ‘negative resistance,’ or regenerative. If this circuit is coupled with the plate circuit with sufficiently close coupling the same phenomena will occur. If, however, the coupling Is at a certain critical value regeneration can be produced without possibility of oscillation. This latter value is that used In the Teledyne. “The anteqna circuit consists or tne usual inductance but of two value#, tuned by a series condenser, which, by the way, operates a cam switch choosing either of these inductance values over the two available 180-de gree scales, with the grid filament imput leads across this Inductance. “The plat# circuit of the first stage is coupled, at the critical value men ^'oned heretofore ^o the grid indue ',^r»ce of the detector, which latter la tuned by the usual variable condens er. The adjustment of this condenser resonates the detector grid circuit and at the same time regenerates the radio frequency amplifier, thereby In creasing its response by lowering the antenna. “The antenna Inductance which ts also the grid Inductance of the radio frequency amplifier, la carefully LmOPE I Tours of the Better Grad* AT MODERATE COST 37 to 73 Days—$47S to 3*29 Send for Booklet Colpitis Tourist Compsny 391 WASHINGTON ST., BOSTON Established 1879 I DATS Bww*-OB.wrrtc. o, sSkTtSKrStoCoSfttSS tneo*.

In Nebraska today 134 men, guilty of crimes In Douglas county, are at liberty and working, literally to keep out of the penitentiary. They are beneficiaries of the bench parole law. This law says to the de fendant: i'Vou have committed a crime; you admit it; but you are young, this is your first offense, and we are going to give you a chance. Go, get to work, be on the level. We'll watch you for two years and If you make good you are free. If at any time during that period you commit a crime, associate with bad company, frequent places of evil or do anything else you shouldn't do you will be forthwith sentenced to the peniten tlary.” A youth signs his father's name to a check. Jt is forgefr. Shall h» be tried and sentenced to 20 years in the penitentiary? A young man takes an automobile and goes for a joy ride. Shall he be tried, branded as a felon and sent to the state reformatory? Most of the men and women paroled from the bench before sentence is pranounced are guilty of only lesser crimes. The law provides that the judge Moms 9 (fSnen canot parole persons charged with murder, treason, rape, arson, bur glary from a dwelling In the night time, robbery or larceny of the per son. This parole from the bench must not be confused with the paroles granted by the state board to prison ers In the penitentiary. "The parole from the bench," said former County Attorney Abel V. fcfhotwell, "saves the defendant from the stigma of being a convict. He re tains his citizenship and self respect, and in the majority of cases he makes good." All the district Judges believe the law is a good one. “I could tell many instances of pa roled men going Siut from before the Glee Club Concert Will Be Broadcast Concert by the glee club of Mount St. Mary seminary will be broadcast Sunday afternoon from l to 2:30 from WAAW, the radio station of the Omaha Grain exchange.

Feb. !S.—Westing house radio station KFKX has estab lished a long distance overland broad casting record. A letter received today, dated Jan uary 19, from Punta f>el»«te, Uruguay republic, wtates that the program broadcast from Hastings the evening of January 18 was heard In full. This is a distance of 6.1S8 miles, officials said. Another letter received from Manta. Fquador, dated January 51, states that the program of January 14 was plainly heard. One thousand letters per day on the average are received by station KFKX. btnch, where merry had saved them from the penitentiary, and making good In a remarkable manner,” said District Judge Charles A. Boss. One Is la-ading Physician. A youth was arrested for forgery. He was a medical student, came of good family and had never been in trouble before. He was paroled by the judge, went back to his studies, grad uated with honors and today is a leading physician in a largd' western city. A man was charged with breaking and entering. He h«d a wife and two children. He pleaded for mercy. His employer seconded his plea. He was paroled for two years, went bark to his Job, rose in the service until to day he is an officer of the company. Practically all Douglas county men are paroled to Moses P. O'Brien, adult probation officer, appointed annually by the court at a salary of *1,500 per year. Report Each .iionin. He keeps in touch with them and gets reports from each one at least once a month on blanks printed for the purposes. The probationer re ports the number of days he worked during the month, reasons for time lost, amount of money earned, amount expended and what for, together with the name and address of employer and kind of employment. When a man is paroled, O'Brien takes a full physical description of him. If he has no work, the proba tion officer helps him to get it. When a probationer fails to make his monthly report the officer looks him up. If he has violated the parole, this fact is reported to the judge, the parole is revoked and officers ordered to arrest the probationer. Only Two Ixist. At present, out of 160 on the pro bation list only two have disappeared without being apprehended, O’Brien say*. To 24 of them, permission has been granted to leave the state. These are now working as follows: two in Chi cago, two in St. Paul, two In Kansas City, two in Missouri Valley. Ia., an i one in each of the following places Oklahoma, St. Joseph.

The paroled men are farmers com mon laurel-*, merchants, clerk*, army vttuftensl »tudents, medical students, doctors, mechanic* and bank clerk*. In the 13 months ending February 1. there were 90 persons, including four women, paroled from the le-nch *’*9" In Douglas county. Most of the s pleaded guilty on promise of parole A few were paroled after being found guilty at a trial. Twenty-five of the 90 w-ere charged with stealing automobiles or receiv ing stolen automobiles; 13 were charg ed with liquor law violations; 11 wih forgery; 11 with breaking and enter ing; four with failure to support wife and children; thre with grand larceny; three with Joy riding; two with failure to pay alimony and one each with ■petit larceny, larceny as bailee, em bezzlement, conspiracy to commit a felony, abetting a delinquent. Four Are Sentenced. During the 13 month* only four were arrested for violation of parole. Joseph T'hlenbrock, charged with for gery and paroled February 21, 1923, was arrested July 7 and sent to the state reformatory for two years. Henry Patera, brought back from the navy on a statutory charge and paroled June 19, was arrested again on August 15 and sent to the re formatory for two years. Jack Catron, tried and found guilty of stealing an automobile, was paroled on May 10, rearrested for misbehavior and on December 7 sentenced to the penitentiary for one to two years. Irene Miller, found guilty of grand larceny, was paroled December 13, but was re arrested in a few weeks and was sentenced to the state re formatory for wogrien for two to fne years. ••Incidentally the parole system saves much trial work," said ere Judge.
