These actions are brought Into the
court by plaintiffs having claims
against all departments of the govern
ments, including actions for requisi
tioning of ships and railroads, trans
portation of troops, ammunition and
supplies, infringements of patents for
high explosives, submarine boats and
torpedoes, wireless and radio appara
tus, contracts for anti-aircraft engines
and guns, military and naval supplies
and ammunition, appropriation of camp
sites and naval bases, together with
contracts for manufacturing and acts
of commandeering of almost endless
variety.
The petition of one inventor claims
$1,000,000 for the lKtle pocket books

About $1,000,000 is asked for infringe

One test case is brought by a sav

by farmers for destruction of land and
crops by alighting mall planes. The

Berlin, Nov. 10.—The reply of the
German government to the reparations
commission Wednesday night concern
ing Germany's economic situation re
iterated Germany’s Intention to fulfill
tho obligations entered Into with the
guarantee committee last July. It Is
said the German government regarded
stabilization as the most urgent task
before It, but that guarantees for per
manent success for the measures pro
posed could only bo given on condi
tion that n final solution of the entire
reparations problem be immediately
taken in hand.
The reply further expressed the
opinion that It still was possible to
take steps by means of co-operation
between foreign banking syndicates
and the Reichstag for supporting the
mark.
The reply did not allude to the ma.
Jorlty report of the unofficial experts
who have been Investigating the situ
ation with the purpose of finding
means ot ameliorating it, but referred
to the proposals ot Dr. Vlsserlng,
president of the Netherlands Bank;
Robert H. Brand, the new London
banker, and Leopold Donols, of Switz
erland, who was financial adviser to
the Swiss delegation nt the Genoa con
ference concerning possible means for
establishing an Internal syndicate for
supporting the mark and recommended
these plans to the reparations com
mission, adding that the relchabank
would bo ready to co-operate.
Sir John Bradbury, British represen
tative on the reparations commission,
In an Interview yesterday, was Inclin
ed to the opinion that the visit to
Berlin of the reparations commission
had been a disappointment. Inasmuch
as Germany had not yet formulated
definite plans.
'Personally,” Sir John added, "I
have so little belief In the financial
prospects ot any policy ot control or
coercion, which In my view will In
evitably result In the franc going the
way of the mark, that were I a French
man I should be even more emphatic
than I am In favor ot concessions that
may be necessary to secure conceited
notion, tor unless Germany haa the
courage and resourcefulness to help
herself, we can not help now. It she
continues to fold her arms and wait
for catastrophe she probably will re

Atlanta, Ga. Nov 9.—Thanksgiv
ing turkeys will be cheaper this year
than they wore last,' uccording to
commission merchants of Atlanta.
The wholesale price on the Thanks
giving turkey is expected to be from
35 to 40- cents a pound, which is
from 5 to 7 cents below the whole
sale price last year, and the year be
fore, for that matter.
Moreover, if one is to depend on
the regulation market bird this year
for his Thanksgiving dinner, it
might be a good plan; according to
Atlanta housewives, to get the bird
pretty soon and look after him a
little. It is said that on account ot
warm weather in the North and West
—if one happens to buy shipped
birds—the bird if thin, as the Fall
thus fur has been unfavorable to
good, fat birds. Cold weather from
now until Thanksgiving, it is point,
ed out, Is neccesary for turkeys, If they
measure up to the table delights of
Inst year.
A few turkeys are now reaching
the city markets In the East, accord
ing to market reports received in
Atlanta, and they are selling at from
35 to 40 cents a pound. With larger
shipments than for several years, it
concluded that the price will go
instead of up, between now and
Thanksgiving Day.
Many of the people of Georgia,
merchants here Bay, not only raise
their own turkeys, but they gen
erally supply most of the commis
sion merchants of their cities and
towns with enough for Thanksgiving
and Christmas purposes. The pre
vailing prices would seem suitable,
it is shown here, when considered
with other provision prices.
By tho wny, ns agricultural leaders
here point out, the turkey Is a great
enemy of the boll weevil which has
played havoc with many southern
cotton fields. An enthusiastic flock
of turkeys if turned loose in the cot
ton fields, it is stated,' will without
doubt destroy many wcovils by eat
ing them; thereby, also for making
for fatter and hotter turkeys, which,
it is declared, is something to bo
considered worth while.
