THE BOSTON OLOBE FEBRUARY 12. TOSC FILIBUSTER AGAIN'RADIO CHAOS THREATENS HOLDS UP HOUSE IF GOVERNMENT LOSES SUIT 4 Score of Stations Plan to Use Any Ware Length, Should MacDonald Win Democrats Here Compel Three RolIcaDs SrJOYO Radio Features Win Reconsideration of Change in Carmens Hours of Work RADIO PROGRAM SCHEDULE FOR TODAY (All Stations Are Listed in Eastern Standard Time) wave lengths to stations which have met the qualifications as set forth under its regulations. In this respect, it seems, station WJAZ has fully complied. Believing that the 1912 radio law provides the authority necessary, officials of the Department of Commerce requested the Department of Justice to take legal action against MacDonald and, on this assumption, suit was speedily brought. The seriousness of the outcome of this case, should the Government be beaten, can scarcely he imagined.

It is the belief of the officials of the Department of Commerce that in such event about 200 disappointed applicants fop licenses to operate broadcasting stations may go ahead with the construction of their stations, follow the MacDonald precedent and operate their stations on any wavelengths they may see fit to use. Members of Congress who are acquainted with the situation assert that immediate radio legislation will be absolutely imperative in the event that the Department of Commerce loses Its case. WASHINGTON, Feb ll-Offlcials of the 'Department of Commerce have learned of the intention of more than a score of broadcasting stations to operate on wave lengths of their own choice in the event that the Government loses Its case against E. F. MacDonald of Chicago.

In revealing the fact that these stations have practically sefved notice to this effect, the Department of Commerce officials predict that com-, plete and utter chaos would result from the the decision, if unfavorable to the Gov- House vesterdav continued the dilatory I ernment, in the MacDonald case. House yesterday continued me anaioiy The suit of the Government against tactics which they had' resorted to on MacDonald was brought as a result of Wednesday because they alleged1 that I Station WJaZ, owned by the Zenith they have not had fair treatment in Eadio Corporation and of tf nic their efforts to obtain postponements of bills and other measures. 'Representative Charles H. Slowey of Lowell, assisted by his fellow-Demo-crats, Obtained a rolleali on his bill Increasing thp value of household furniture exempted from taxation. It is now $1000.

Finally the House, by a vote of 127 to 82, refused to substitute the bill for an adverse committee report. Then came the bill of Representative E. J. Kelley of Worcester, for the appointment of a special commission to study highway lighting in the State. The (louse on a rolleali refused, 130 to 47, to substitute the bill for an adverse committee report, and then, on another roll call, voted, 124 to 45, to accept the committee report.

No Distance Q. 2609, M. Ij. Dorchester I have a three-tube Greene set, using WD 1 tubes. All I am able to get are the local stations.

At one time this set was getting from 12 to 15 stations a nighl. Can you advise me how this set can be changed so that I will be able to get outside stations again? Would you advise me to use a three-circuit tuner with two stages of audkf? A. Your failure to receive distant stations may be due to deterioration of the receiver, of the tubes or batteries, to the fact that your receiver Is selective enough to cut out the local and get the distant ones. If difficulty is due to lack of selectivity, advise you to change over to three-circuit type, as suggested if the receiver is sufficiently for your particular location, insufficiently sensitive to receive signals, we suggest that you Lincolns birthday will be the theme of numerous programs on the air tonight.

In replying to the figures of Mr Stone he said that in 1922 and 1923 registration of graduates of his school by State Boards of Registration was 100 percent. There vere only two graduates in 1922, which shows we were not running a diploma mill, he added. He concluded by asking the committee to leave the situation in the hands the Board of Registration in Medicine NO OPPOSITION TO BOOST IN SUBWAY APPROPRIATION was no opposition to the proposed increased appropriation by the State to provide a six-car instead of a four-car platform in the prospective subway station at Charles st, at the hearing yesterday before the Legislative Committees on Street Railways and Metropolitan Affairs. Henry C.

Atwill, for the rublic Utilities Commission, explained that the present appropriation, $609,000, tvill pay only for a platform accomodating a four-car train, and that a platform to accomodate six cars, as the other existing stations on the line do, would cost $85o, OCO. A bill he has submitted would increase the appropriation to that amount. The proposition was advocated bv Bernard J. Rothweil for the Beacon Hill Association and Dy Fitzhenrv Smittj Jr, and Dr F. A.

Washburn f-r Massachusetts General Hospital. H. Ware Barnum, for the Boston Ki-evated trustees was also in favor, but offered an amendment to allow assessment of betterments up to one-half the cost of the station, the balance to he borne as provided in the present law. The two committees also gave a hearing to those Interested in tne petition of ex-Congressman Frederick W. Dallinger, that the Department of Public Utilities be given authority to authorize certain improvements in the Cambridge Subway.

Senator McLane Announces Bill Striking at Goodwin Is Dropped The Legislative Committee on State Administration gave a hearing yesterday on the bill of Senator Walter E. McLane of Fall Rivef providing for appeals from the decisions of the director of the State Division of Standards to the Commission on Labor and Industries, of which the division is a part. Senator McLane characterized Director Francis Meredith as the principal czar of the many czars scattered through the State departments." This statement was promtply challenged, not only by Director Meredith but by manufacturers and others.

The Senator from Fall River argued that it was "a peculiar state of affairs when an appointee was'so firmly fixed in his position that an appeal was impossible, even to the appointive power. Maj Meredith, speaking in opposition to the bill, declared that during the six years he had been in charge of the department, order had been brought out of chaos and a harmonious and cooperative spirit had been engendered among all the men throughout the State who are responsible to the department. He I characterized the bill under consider a tion as pernicious and "sinister in its aspects." He said he was not bound by politics or any political affiliation an making his decision but acted upon his own convictions after careful examination. The animus behind the act under consideration, he charged, was occasioned b.v his refusal to qualify a certain kind of measure for the control and distribution of lubricating oil, a question which he said had been before him intermittently for almost six years and I which had finally been carried to the Governor. Wiilliam Foster, president of the Massachusetts Association of Sealers and Measurers, comprising members all over I the State representing the executive committee of the organization, said there was the very best of feeling be-1 tween the association members and Mr Meredith.

Among others who opposed the Me- Lane bill were Charles I. Murphy of Lynn, A. A. Skowan of Boston, D. C.

Palmer of a scale company, Ralph L. Lull of the Gilbert Barker Mfg Co, the nlxtnnas biUhis whirt provided -skifve state depart SSS.iK.Vait appojntlng. p0VVer, Senator said that he had further study of the. matter was necessary. This is the bill which has been referred to as aimed at Frank A.

Goodwin, State registrar of motor vehicles. Hearing was postponed for one- week on a third bill by Senator McLane re- I lating to the employment of the heads' of State departments other outside capacities. THREE -MEDICAL SCHOOLS CRITICIZED DURING HEARING Speakers at a hearing before the Legislative Committee on Education on a bill t0 authorize the State Department of Education to investigate the work and equipment of medical schools yesterday severely criticized the Middlesex College of Medicipe and Surgery the College of Physicians and Surgeons and the Massachusetts College of Osteopathy. Dr James S. Stone, representing the Massachusetts Medical Society, quoted figures for a period of from seven to 13 years which he said showed that during that time rejections by the State Board of Registration in Medicine amounted to 57 percent for the Massachusetts College of Osteopathy, 67 percent for the College of Physicians and Surgeons and 49 percent for the Middlesex College of Medicine and Surgery.

He said he was not opposed to any school, but believed the quality of medical education should be brought up to a reasonable standard. Dr John M. Birnie, of Springfield, a member of the State Board of Registration in YIedicine, said the entire board is in favor of the bill. Dr E. L.

D. Turner, registrar of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, opposed the bill on the ground that 7 WBZ 333 (242): Music story hour. 8 WEAN 270: Debate, Fordham vs Providence College. 8:15 KDKA 309: Lincoln program. 8:30 WNAC 280: Artists recital 8:30 WBZ 333 (242): Concert ensemble.

The program included in the bill. Representative Shattuck said, looks to a continuous expansion in the facilities of all hospitals for the use of the mentally ill and is as large a program as can at this time be carried forward efficient- fy and expeditiously We have a splendid Eard to threduction of record with regard to the reduction of debt, said Rep Wiu (J LUC VUUV, uun vt gvjz- resentatYve shattuck," IT recordf which i believe to be without parallel among State and municipal governments during the difficult war and post-war periods. I may state without exaggeration that we come as Viear getting a dollar's worth of service for each dollars expenditure as any Government in the world.

After referring to some of the appro- LU c.c n.c priations for large departments, Mr Shat tuck commented on the fact that the state Is faced by the necessity for un- dertaking large capital expenditure for increasing accommodations in institu- tions. In this he said special attention, should be given to the ques- attention snou.a oe g.ven to me ques- 1hen memtllfifiVnlhe MeTropoluan dis- KsM XhouK bould also hat-e consideration is the enlargement of the Boston State Hospital or the building of a second hos- Jcnsider-cd and 11.. heretotore pared for a hospital on that site should be reviewed. Among the alternatives Committee Reports The following committee reports were received: State Administration "Leave to withdraw on the petition of George F.

GREATER POWERS URGED FOR STATE FIRE MARSHAL State Fire Marshal George C. Neal, at the hearing j'esterdav the Legislative Committee on Bublic Safety, advocated the bill filed by Senator John W. McCormack of South Boston authorizing the fire marshal to summon witnesses, administer oaths and require papers to be produced at hearings before him. The marshal stated that such a law would aid him in cases relating to permits for garages or gasoline tanks.

He told of a case where a lawyer received a fee of $3090 for securing a permit, despite the fact the law requires a charge of only $1. Alfred F. Foote, Commissioner of Public Safety, favored the bill, but wanted it extended to benefit him also, as he has to pass on appeals from the fire marshals decisions. Other speakers fav-. ored the bill and there was no opposition.

Dust in the condenser or worn bearings on this instrument or on the variometer ay introduce enough resistance into the circuit to make the reception of ea signals impossible. Overloaded Tubes Q. 2691, C. F.

Highlands- hooked up a Reinartz according to your description in a recent issue of the Globe, adding two stages of audio. With ng A. We presume that the poorer qualitj with the small tubes is due to the fact that the last audio tube is overloaded. The 199 will not 'handle as much power as -the When the limit of the tube is reached distortion sets in. We, suggest that you use one of the new LX 120 tubes in the last audio stage with 135 volts on the plate and 221,4 volts battery.

Most of the complaints come from owners of neutrodynes and superhetero-rynes in this vicinity.

To whom may trouble of this kind be reported? A. We suggest that you get in tou-h with Charles C. Kolster, radio supervisor for Jew England. Customhouse. Boston.

Grid Leak Value Q. 2693. A. R. New Hampshire Can you explain my trouble with m.v single tube set? My antenna is free from obstructions and ok high ground but reception is poor.

I find by taking the grid leak out that reception is much improved. Is there any harm in this? A. No, but it is apparent that you have too lo-w a resistance leak. We suggest that you try a much higher value. Try the grid return of the detector tube on the other side of the A battery.

For instance, if it is now connected to the negative side of the A battery, try it on the positive side. OutWhere i f- Open Begins!

Boston I have a foux-tube set consisting of a stagj of radio frequency, detector- and two transformer coupled audio rtages. Is this a regenerative or a nonrugenera-tive set? Will you please explain the difference between a regenerative and nonregenerative set? A. Your set may be either regenerative or nonregenerative according to the manner in which It is used. It is probable the receiver is regenerative, because a single stage of non-regenerative radio frequency with a nonregenerative detector would not prove very sensitive. Almost ail sets include regeneration eomevhere in their makeup.

Even the superheterodyne may be considered regenerative to a certain degree, because the intermediate amplifier la worked close to the point of oscillation for best results.
