"C3rent nil the Borneo of radio proved on thla occaalon. . luck and uncertainty ployed too great a part 1 In whnt followed tho col Union of tho Bhip and tho iccborff. The Tl tnntic carried an adequate trann mlttlnt? set, with a day rang of moro than 400 miles and nipht range which carried her cry of dis dreaa far over tho uea. and vet who might easily havo boon missed ; altogether by tho Carpathlu, the one ship nenr enough to givo quick assistance. It was also ru mored at - the tlmo that ono frolghter, unequipped with radio, was oven cloaor and might have taken off passengers who could not find a plnco In the lifeboats and whoso lives ended shortly In tho cold wator. Tho fact was tLat tho Carpnthia's one operator, H. T. j Cottam, was doing- to bed before j tho Titnntic smashed her no&o on j tho icebrror. and it was only by I chance, or If you please, the Inter vention of providence, that 1 he stayed up a little longor to got off some messages, and heard the Ti tnntic CQD huxzinfr Into his head phones, at 13:35 in the morninc. Cottam already had his coat off. Hud taken off tho phono and grounded hiH atuoiina u few mln uti'H earlier, tho Carpathta would have continued tranquilly tin hr coiirvo while 000 putt pie wero perish loir 60 miles away.

"So much has been published In the last Blx months with reanu-d to B battery substitutes that th ave raifo broadcast listener la In doubt as to what type will Rive, him tho most satisfaction. It Is natural that certain prevailing types of eliminators will be suited for par ticular types of receivers, while they are entirely suitable for use on others' declares Air. Beers. "In order to make an Intelligent choice between these various designs, the broadcast listener has had to try out ono after another until he has obtained satisfaction. Kven after a comparatively thorough test, he may find that the short life of the rectifier elements will causo an expense equal to that of maintain ing H hatlcitcfl.

New Radio Principle Used in Flood : , NEW YORK A, hitherto little discussed but vastly important as pect of proposed wave-lenmh changes waa revealed at the na tional radio conference in Wash ington and Is now engaging the at tention of tho ratllo industry. It was to this effect: That oppor tunist manufacturer! were active propagandists for alterations in the broadcasting wave bands to permit broadcast stutlon to use as low as 150 meters and that the wholo process of stabilization in the radio industry would have been most seriously damaged if the idea had gained endorsement. Joseph D. H. Freed, president of the Froed-Eisemann Radio cor poration, as a member of commit teo No. 1, dealing with the alloca tion of frequency or wave-lemrlh bands, called attention to the manifold dangers of the proposal, and emphnsized tho extent of tho economic disturbance and tho mis leading of the public that would ensue if wave baml were suddenly extended so as to Include '150 meters. "Just think, first of all, what It vould mean in the. virtual scrap ping of 5.000,000 sets," Mr. Freed exclaimed. "Thousands upon thousands of families have pur chased receivers wl;h!n tho last year, and 1 need not dwell on tho injustice to them that would be brought about by a quick change In broadcast wavo lengths. It is easy to load receivers for higher wave-lengths but very difficult to provide for the reception of low wave-lengths, meaning that noarly all tho sets would have to be dis corded."
