Secretary of War Tolls of “Insidious
Patent Activity by Germany" in
This Country.
WasIilt*t;toii, D. C.—"The danger of
Ihe tj |iUn!d or house fly in the car
riage of dlsca. e lias been abundantly
demonstrated, and yet It Is ullowed
to breed unrestricted nil over the
United Mates; It Is ullowed to enter I
freely I ho houses of the great major
ity of our istojilcT It is allowed to!
spread I actorlti freely over our food j
supplies n the markets and lu the j
kitchens an.I dining rooms of private
houses.”
Thus nrites Dr. I.. O. Howard in a
comrnuni' attmi to the National Geo
graphic so e;y. lie continues:
“Even if i hi> t.vphohl or house fly
were a creature (llllirult to destroy,
the general la hire on the part of com
munities to nai!;e any efforts what
ever to reduce its numbers could
properly hi icincd criminal neglect;
hut, since i: is comparatively an easy
matter to r.wny with the plague
of flics, tlii neglect becomes an evi
dence of t : <> luce or of a careless
ness in regard to disease-producing
tilth which to the Informed mind con
stitutes a I'.r'ous blot on civilized
methods of life.
“If we allow the accumulation of
filth we will have house tiles, and if
we do not al'o v it to accumulate we
will have no kails’* (lies. With tin*
careful collection of garbage in cans
and the removal of the contents at
more frequent intervals than ten days,
and with the proper regulation of
abattoirs, and more particularly with
the proper regulation of stables in
which horses are kept, the typhoid
fiy will become a rare species.
“We have shorn tiiat tlie typhoid or
house fly may carry typhoid fever.
Asiatic cholera, dysentery, cholera
morbus and other intestinal diseases;
it may carry the bacilli of tuberculosis
and certain eye diseases; It Is every
where present, and it is disposed of
with comparative case. It is the duty
of every Individual to guard so far as
possible against the occurrence of flies
upon his premises. It is the duty of
every community, through its board of
health, to spend money In the warfare
against this enemy of mankind. Tills
duty Is ns pronounced ns though the
community were attacked by hands of
i a venous wolves."
HE WORKS AND LIKES IT
V. usl lngton.—“Insidious patent na
tivity by Germany,” in the United
States, Is the description given by Sec
retary of War Weeks to the effoils of
Germ.:u citizens here to patent de
vices of war iu the name of Freder
ick Krupp.
The secretary declares that Invest!-
gallon of patents and applications for
patents recently announced as hav
ing been obtained by German‘citizens
shows that 223 were assigned to the
Kruppe, the war Implement manufac
turer of Germany.
“The investigation,” said Secretary
Weeks, “disclosed a rather striking
circumstance in view of the conditions
which Germany is supposed to observe
as to disarmament and manufacture
of war materials under her treaty obli
gations.
“Of the 228 patents, twenty-SIx re
late to artillery fire control devices,
eighteen to electric control apparatus,
nine to fuses and projectiles, six to
gas engines and appurtenances, sev
enteen to guns and their appurte
nances, three to processes for ihe pro
duction of metals, ten to naval fire con
trol devices, three to projectiles and
machines for handling same, fourteen
to railroad artillery, and the balance
to varied uses, most uf which might
well relate to military use.
“Incident to making this investiga
tion, it was noted that a large num
ber of patents and upplieatlons had
been assigned to numerous other Ger
man countries and a casual examina
tion indicates that a considerable num
ber relate to airplanes aud their acces
sories, chemicals, dyes, radio appa
ratus and naval equipment.
“Investigation Is being made of all
these assignments and considerable
progress lias been made looking to
ward introduction of corrective meas
ures in congress for the protection of
those American industries in which
the war department is especially in
terested, against this recurrence of
insidious patent activity by Germany.”
soli engaged a lawyer to go to Sweden
to look after her Interests. He came
hack with the news that there would
be no money for her so 'ong ns she re
mained In this country.
“I’ll never go bnck, no matter how
much money there is wailing for me."
