They prevent closed circuit absorption of current, inter-coupling of circuits, feedback and undesirable capacity. THEY MAKE ANY CIRCUIT more stable and sharpen tuning, resulting in purer and clearer tones with more volume particularly on distant stations.

Very truly yours, G. JOHNSON. Bloomington, Illinois. A Setback to the Florida Boom IN MANY districts code interference has been materially reduced through a general cooperative campaign of the newspapers and magazines which circulate in those areas, in which pressure was brought to bear on the offenders. There are still too many districts, however, where broadly tuned transmitters are a source of constant annoyance to listeners of both local and distant broadcasting stations. The Florida peninsula, it would appear, from this letter suffers badly from coast to shore interference. Editor, RADIO BROADCAST, Doubleday, Page & Company, Garden City, New York. Sir: Ship to shore transmission is responsible in this locality for the worst form of interference encountered. "Sparks" will sit on the key at just about the time the broadcast program is at its best, and often it seems as if he had held up his work to fill the air between then and twelve o'clock. The wonderful New Year's treat from wjz was perfect as regards volume and modulation, but all through the stellar offering of McCormack and Bori there was only one brief song not ruined by code. Very truly yours, FREDERIC B. HYDE, Miami, Florida. A Letter from the Philippines ^TAKING Horace Greeley's "Go West" 1 thoroughly to heart, apparently irrespective of any human element, one copy of RADIO BROADCAST has monthly wended its weary way right out to the Philippines, there, we presume from that so enthusiastic letter following, to be eagerly read by at least one "satisfied customer." The letter: Editor, RADIO BROADCAST, Doubleday, Page & Company, Garden City, New York. SIR: I have already received the new size November and December numbers of the RADIO BROADCAST. I want to congratulate you on the progress and success your magazine is making. It is the best magazine of its kind that I have ever yet seen and so cheap that anybody can afford to subscribe. Its articles are very interesting and highly instructive. Its hook-ups are all "knockouts." Before I subscribed to this magazine ! hadn't an inkling of radio; now I am proud to say that I am the first home-constructor in this province. The department "For the Radio Beginner" should be continued as it is always very instructive to the novices and fans. Wishing you a prosperous year for RADIO BROADCAST.
