A BEGINNER'S EARLIEST QUESTIONS

once

One of the earllest questions ask- ed by a beginner with his first valve set is usually: "Am I likely to do any damage to it?" There is no likelihood of damage by ordinary usage

the set is correctly coupled up to the batteries. The greatest danger is to make a mis- take in connecting up the batteries, such as allowing the II. T. positive wire to touch the LT. wiring. There is also the danger of being too familiar with the set and prob-| ing in the wiring with a screw driver. Such generally ends in disaster to the valves.

As valves are expensive it is worth while to take the precaution

JOURNALIST'S RADIO PRESS ASSOCIATION

Washington, April 17. The Supreme Court of the Dia- trict of Columbia, to-day, denied the application of the National Radio Press Association for an in- junction to restrain the Federal Radio Commission from assigning news radio channels to the press associations and newspapers of the country.

Mr. Justice Bailey, in giving the Court's decision, declared the Court does not believe the plaintiff can be called a press association in the re- gular sense of the word.

The National Radio Press Ás- sociation, headed by Mr. Charles A. Sloan, formerly of Shanghai, had applied for an injunction to prevent

The reason

for the extra pre- caution

with these valves is that it is possible for the grids to touch another electrode, and so short-circuit a portion of the |H. T. battery by touching the fla- ments. If a valve of these types did happen to do this it would be rendered useless in spite of the fact that the filament remained intact. The fuse would save the H. T. bat tery from ruin.
