H. TALBOTT, President. W. H. ARh.IER, D. A. STACKHOUSE. Board of Trustees. BOBBIES SHINE IN RIOT WORK Carry No Guns, Yet Are Experts in Handling Unruly Crowds. LONDON, Feb. S.—The easy—almost apologetic—way In which tue policeman handles a crowd always irnI presses a stranger, particularly an American. The “hobby*’ has had a number of opportunity lately of demonstrating this manner of his—and he will, no doubt, have a great many more chances with unemployment parades During recent disturbances all the newspapers—with the exception of one—commented on the good temper and restraint shown by the police. It must be remembered that the British policeman does not carry n revolver. His only weapon Is a short “billy.” which he cnlls a baton, and this is hidden away In his pocket, to be drawn and used only on the greatest provocation. When using it he must be careful not to hit his opponent over the head with It, but must strike him only on the arms or body. In addition, he is hampered with an oilskin cape which he carries rolled up and slung from his belt. This, of course, is In his way when he Is defending himself or attacking a crowd. He occasionally finds It of use. however, as a weapon, and It Is certainly of more value In dispersing a crowd than Is the little “billy.** During the Whitehall riots last fall It was a funny sight to see a long line of policemen advancing against the mob lustily swinging their capea—which, rolled In a tight bundle, made effective “night sticks." , The capo has the additional advantage of knocking a rioter down and leaving no mark. It Is certainly a liberal education to see a platoon of English policemen “moving on" a crowd. First they stand In a line, looking rather bored at the whole proceedings. Then they move out together and, locking arms, try to force the crowd along by sheer pressure. When they succeed In getting It on tho move then they separate and break It up Into small parties, all the time saying “move along, pleas*” or “don’t stop, please.” Always the please” and If they have to draw the baton’s” they seem to hit with great care so as to do as little damage as possible. But when they really lose their tempers and see some of their comrades struck down-then the best thing to do Is to get to some spot of safety as quickly as possible, for they can “handle ’em rough" when they have to. Police of Paris Form Symphony Orchestra PARIS, Feb. 3. —Under the patronage of Minister of the Interior Stecg and Prefect of Police ltaux, Paris policemen have formed their symphonic orchestra. All participants are on the active list and the conductor himself Is just an ordinary policeman.

MANY PERSONS STILL BELIEVERS IN WITCHCRAFT Superstition Demonstrated in Modern Court, With Baby Under Curse. MOST VICTIMS WOMEN NEW YORK—“She’s a witch I” yelled a woman in a New York courtroom not lqnc ago, and, to the surprise of the judge and some of the spectators, other women took up the cry. The fact was suddenly revealed that numbers of persons in the most civilized city In America firmly believed In the power of the evil eye, and that a baby had lost the use of Its legs because It had been cursed by a woman supposed to have that power. The belief In witchcraft Is supposed to have perished In this enlightened country a little over 200 years ago. Shortly after the witchcraft persecutions which took place in Salem In the Seventeenth century a whole literature against the belief in witches sprang into being. It began with books which admitted that I the devil was a dangerous fellow and apt |to tamper with human destiny, but which denied that be could do it through j the medium of witches. Such arguments j as this were followed by others more and ! more radical In tone, until finally the most Intelligent came out flatly for the | hold Idea that there was nothing In any of these supernatural Ideas. ! These bold Intellectuals were at first regarded askance, but they gradually prevailed. People who believed In witches ! became ashamed to acknowledge the ! fact. Most important of all, the church j and the law no longer took official cognizance of witches, as both hod dona before the venr 1700. Witchcraft as a crime recognized by the statutes ceased I to exist. BELIEF IN HITCHES STILL ALIVE. But the belief In witchcraft by no means ceased, as the New York ladles demonstrated. Literal be.Uef In witches who commune with the devil and cast supernatural spells In still common to a large part of the human race. It D widely scattered among the lower peasantry of Europe, and bv them Is Imported Into the United States with every boatload of Immigrants. Furthermore, It still flourishes as an tndlgenous product In many sections of this country. Down In the Southwest, for example, Mexicans and Indians still believe in It lmplicity, and to some extent openly. A Mexican woman in a Southwestern town has been known to spit In the eye of a baby In public and explain that she did it to protect the child from the curse of a witch who was looking at It. Belief In witchcraft as literal and ’ crude as Is indicated by this Incident I and that of the New York courtroom may , be coiiipartlvely rare, or at least llmlt- ; ed to a few very Ignorant classes of the i population, but the essentials of wtich- | craft are still widely prevalent. These essentials are Ignorance and the eerdulIty that always goes with It. and persons who are anxious to turu both to i their own advantage. By his belief In witchcraft, as In falri ics, ghosts and other supernatural pheI nomena, the Ignorant man Is primarily j expressing a feeling that there are forces In the universe beyond his ken. This Is a sound feeling. When you come right dowu to It no one can with certainty deny the existence of supernatural forces. The universe Is Indefinite and mysterious. The dogmatic scientist who asserts that there Is nothing beyond what he can prove by experiment has no way of proving that he Is right. The sophisticated and educated man may admit this, but he also realizes that If there are supernatural forces. In the nature of the ca?e It Is Impossible to understand them. He therefore confines hts mental operations to the world that he Is able to apprehend with his mind and his senses, and refuses to concern himself about the supernatural on the ground that it is essentially unknowable PSYCHOLOGY OF SUPERSTITION. But this position Is possible only to o mind somewhat trained and logical, j The untrained min'd thinks not In terms ’"f logic, but of emotions and Images. In other words, the Ignorant man Is vaguely j aware that there Is a supernatural world and he necessarily conceives of this worli in emotional and imaginative terms. As sure as he thinks about the matter at all he Is soared of ghosts or hits visions of witches or fairies or hobgoblins or something. He or Bhe Is generally a hard working person, drugged by routine, and therefore does not think of tho matter much. But that sense of the supernatural Is always there. It Is always j ready to flare up If it has a chance. Tt ; usually cherishes In secret some sort jof delusion. How many persons can you find among your acquaintances who do not believe In any sort of superstition? The great army of those who believe they communicate with the dead by means of s onlja board and those who support our great army of fortune tellers In luxurious ease, are the modern descendants of the witchburners. Some of them are half ashamed of their superstition and some are proudly In earnest about It. But In all an instinctive belief in the supernatural, combined with a desire to give the supernatural some definite form and character. Is at the root of It. It Is noticeable that women are more prone to these superstitions than men and the reason is that women have more leisure and are therefore more cognizant of the mystic element In life. They have more time to think about It. This belief in the supernatural as an abstraction Is. as we said, Inevitable. There Is' something of It In every man. It Is the root of his religious sense. It Is his instinctive recognition of the fact that a finite mind cannot possibly comprehend an Infinite universe—that there are vast areas of existence which transcend the powers of the human mind and are beyond all laws which It can discover. PRIDE FOSTERS SUPERSTITION. It Is the tendency to manufacture this mystic sense into' definite images which does the damage. Man is full of troubles which are due to the miserable precariousness of human life, coupled with the remarkable stupidity of human beings. Rut man being a proud animal, hates to admit that his troubles are due to the fact that he is merely unfortunate and | stupid. The child who burns his hand I does not blame his own stupidity. He | blames the stove, endows it with a mai lisrnant spirit and wants it punished. | Tli# savage who has no Inek In hunting | does not blame his own laziness and lack of running. He blames the n-mls anil makes a praver to them. The believer in wltchernft likewise refuses to put tbe blame for his troubles where it belongs —on himself. Instead, he picks out some neighbor whom he envies or dislikes and accuses that person of being a witch and in leacne with the devil. Thus he at once dignifies his own misfortunes and gets even with an enemy. And another element enters Into the matter here There are usually leaders of the community who are to some extent to blame for tbe misfortunes of Its members and they are only too glad to have the blame saddfed on somt supernatural force. Hence the sanction which witchcraft long received from the law nnd other high Instlutions. It Is easy to see how the psychological essentials of witchcraft still work among us. All of our willingness to believe It) bugaboos conjured by our politicians Is based on the same credulity, the same Ignorance end the same desire

Thought Marriaeg Bureau Passed Out Brides at $1 Per SAN FRANCISCO, Feb, 3.—" Cupid” Munson in his long career as matrimonial licenser has had many queer experiences. He has been called from his peaceful slumbers at unseemly hours to assist Cupid by issuing the necessary legal papers. ] Ills office has been mistaken as the source of dog licenses. But he had the s ck of his life the other day when Eric Knudson, a brawny Swede, shouldered his way through a waiting line of prospective brides and grooms and shoved a dollar bill across the counter to Munson. "I’ll Join your club,” announced Eric. “Where’s the lady?” inquired Munson. | ‘’Oh, that’s up to you,” responded Erie. “Any one of this bunch will do,” he added with a careless gesture toward the waiting young ladies, all of whom shrank a bit closer to their intendeds, i “We don’t do business that way here,” : Munson came back severely, j “Huh,” opined Eric, “this is sure a queer matrimonial bureau. Why, I’ve belonged to a half dozen and none were as uppish as you are. Gimme my dollar back.” i i to find a dramatic cause for troubles which are really due to our own stupiu- ! ity more than to anything else. The tendency to blame all our economic troubles on "profiteers,” “reds” and other such half-mythical malefactors Is the same tendency that made witchcraft popular with our ancestors. ENGLAND WILL ‘PASS THE BUCK’ IN OIL ANSWER Will Take Stand She Is Powerless to Act in Mesopotamia. NOTE WILL COME TO IJ. S. LONDON, Feb. 3.—The British government, In Its reply to the American note on oil rights, especially in Mesopotamia, will "pass tho buck” to the League of Nations, It was learned from an authoritative source today. The American note, which was addressed to Great Britain by Secretary of State Colby, ha 9 been under close scrutiny at the Foreign Office for many weeks, but the answer soon will be ready for transmission to Washington. Great Brtain will tuke the stand that she has no power to grant concessions to outside naf 1-ins In the Mesopotamian oil fields. She will contend that only the League of Nations has such Jurisdiction. This contention is based on tbe fact that ; the League of Nations gave Great Britain a mandate for Mesopotamia, which • formally was accepted. The same point was raised In the last League of Nations meeting when Lord Robert Cecil, former under secretary for foreign affairs in the British cabinet, presented the view that when a power accepted a mandate for a dependent country, the mandate carried with it the authority to utilize all the mineral resources unless the league decreed otherwise. The United States had protested against the refusal of the British to allow other nations to participate In the ; developments of the Mesopatomlan oil j fields. Furthermore, the United States | had charged the British with seekiug domination of the world's oil output. I British officials, in forecasting the con- ! tents of the reply to the American note, j branded this charge as absurd. They : declared that America already controls more than half of all available oil resources. YAP MANDATE IS AGREED ON WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.—The League of Nations council has reached an agreement on a mandate for the Isle of Y’ap which has been accepted tentatively, it was learned at the State Department today. The council has approved of mandate C but has not consulted the United States. This action was taken in the face of Secretary of State Colby's note to Great Britain, protesting again oil agreements in the Mesopotamian regions, in which the Secretary stated that the United States denied the right of other nations to settle on forms of mandates without consulting all who partiepated In the World War, Irrespective of whether they have joined the League of Nations. Ask Colorado River With Name of State WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.—Colorado seas no reason why It should have a river bearing the name of that State without having the satisfaction of having that river within its borders. Colorado River, according to the present designation, has its origin at the point In Utah where the Grande and the Green Rivers meet. To bring the Colorado Into the States, Representative Taylor, who represents western Colorado in the House, will urge the passage of legislation to change the name of the Grande River to the Colorado and have the Green “emptying into the Colorado” in future geographies. Even Chinese Girls Wearing* ’Em Shorter SHANGHAI, Feb. 3.—The chief of police in Shanghai has issued an edict against the extravagant styles now worn by Chinese women. It. warns Chinese women against aping foreign styles with the display of ankles and bare arms. “Women's wearing apparel,” says the edict, “Is mostly too short, permitting the exposure of arms and ankles. Some of the clothing Is an imilatiou of foreigu styles, making the wearer neither foreign nor Chinese. The wearers are devoid of shame and frequent public streets without embarrassment. “In future all such women will be arrested and fined.” ‘Middle-Class Man’ Is Defined by Shaw LONDON, Feb. 3.—The following is G. Bernard Shaw's definition of the \ middle class man. “One who can read and write and do j arithmetic, who has had a business 1 training—which means going into an 1 office—and who, when he does not know : what to do, does what was done before, and if he cannot do it goes bamcrupt.” Spends Last Cent for Gas in Suicide BOSTON, Feb. 3.—Out of employment, his finances totaling the sum of but 25 ! ; cents, Frank Matola dropped the quarj ter in a gas meter at the house where | he lodged, went to his room and, turn- ; in on both gas Jets, committed suicide. The seven new wonders of the world are wireless, telephone, airplane, radium, antiseptics and antitoxins, spectrum analysis and X-rays.

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE LACKS SYSTEM More Than Year Required to Secure Papers for Simplest Kind of Patent. CONGRESS REFUSES AID Bjf FREDERIC J. HASKIN. WASHINGTON, D. C.—lt now takes an inventor over a year to get even the simplest patent in the United States, and after he has gotten a patent it is far from affording him the perfect protection which it is supposed to give. The value of a United States patent is decreasing year by year. These are the outstanding facts which have been presented to Congress in connection with the Patent Office bill which Is now being considered there. They are due to a small, underpaid force and o consequent labor turnover which would be ruinpus to any private concern. That our patent system is not efficient is due to no fault of its employes. It is almost impossible to get Congress to add even a few more examiners to the staff of the bureau, though the work is obviously getting heavier all the time. When an invention is presented to the bureau it is presumed that step3 will be taken to decide whether it is eligible for a patent. And that is what the examiners try to decide. But there are more than 1.3U0.000 United States patents, and while these are divided into classes and subclasses, the work of comparing the new Invention with all of its kind is a long and exacting Job. And, as the numT ber of patents is increased by some 50,000 each year, it necessarily takes longer each year to make searches, or else they must be less thorough. The latter alternative is alone possible, because business brought to the Patent Office is steadily on the increase as the inventive genluo of the most inventive people on earth flourishes. INCREASED FORCE IN OFFICE HELP NEEDED. This is the disheartening situation which the patent eQfiminers face. It now takes at least a year and a half to put a patent through—-the average patent, with no complications. And unle>B the force working on patents la increased to meet the heavier work and salaries raised sufficiently to attract and hold competent men, It will take longer. Another result of an inadequate and underpaid patent force is that a United S ■*-, patent grant is coming to mean less and less. One judge recently told the House Patents Committee that a patent was not a real protection to the Inventor until it had been through the courts —generally two or more of them, because the decision of a Circuit Court In one section of the country might not be upheld by a court governing another section. In other words, it is almost a part of patent procedure to expect a lawsuit to prove priority of your Invention or that you are not Infringing on someone else's rights. Patent examiners have never been allowed to do their work thoroughly, as the law provides. At the very beginning of the system, in 1700, the statutes decreed that to be patentable an invention must not only have been patented, but it must not have been previously known or used In this country. These last two conditions were rewritten into the patent examination system in 1836, but they have never been Faken seriously by the overworked Patent Office. As matters stand now, what chance has an examiner to know if an invention is really new provided It has not been patented by someone else? All the examiner can do is to make a cursory survey of patents in the particular class t# which the device belongs to sea that the same idea Is not embodied there. He also decided whether theoretically the invention is useful and practical, though he has no means of actually seeing It work. TROUBLES INVOLVED IN SECURING PATENTS. After the patent Is granted, perh.xpo the inventor will find that some other company Is making the same kind of a device without a patent and If he sue* for infringement the company may be able to prove that it had been making the article for some years before the patent was granted. The patentee, therefore, would probably find that he had not invented anything original after all; that his patent was invalid, and that he could not maintain his exclusive right to make the article In question. This Is why the Judge said no patent is a patent until it has been adjudicated. Much of this patent litigation could be dispensed with, if the Patent Offlc# was allowed to work on a mor# thoroughly systematic basis. For Instance, as one examiner points out. It would be quite possible to comply with the statute about limiting patents to inventions that have never been made or used before—that is to limit patents t# real inventions. He explains that If It were made known that the Patent Office was keeping a catalogue of unpatented Inventions, the man who produced * new device would be very apt to send word to the Government so that the date of his discovery would be officially recorded. Then, in case of an application for a patent on a similar invention, the existence of the unpatented article would be known and some Investigation of its status could be made. If tho examiners had more time they could also weed out good Inventions from theoretical nonsense. One patent attorney says that four out of five things patented now are for worse ways of doing something that Is well done already. Forty per cent of patents applied for are refused, because the principle involved or the method of applying the principle Is not new, or because It ts obviously impracticable, or because the invention is of no possible use. But the average inventor is a gambler, and he wants his idea protected even If It has only one chance In a thousand of success. And in this he is often abetted by hls attorney. There are. many patent attorneys who would frankly tell a client that hls idea wtis not worth protecting. But there are others who promote business by encouraging the inventor In the belief that his discovery is as good as some on which other Inventors have made fortunes. One of these Inventions of doubtful value comes to the examiner skilfully worded by an attorney, so that theoretically It Is eligible for a patent. It Is found to be new, and while It may not look like a gold mine In disguise to the examiner, lie has no time to test Its working ability or to compare It with other devices for the same purpose In use. He knows that there are a few cases where very unpromising inventions have made big successes, so he passes it, and it becomes ona more patent to be thumbed over by searchers. And the Inventor blissfully sinks hls money Into It, not realizing that It is a liability rather than an asset. Some day we may have an independent patent department, adequately financed, and allowed to operate with thoroughgoing efficiency. Then there will be fewer patents granted, less money wasted on hopeless inventions, and leas uneertanlty about when a patent Is not a patent. Meantime, we have the foundation and a good deal of the superstructure for an admirable patent system. Onr early statesmen’s plan for protecting Inventors and boosting industrial progress has worked wonderfully, even when suffering from extreme financial debility. There was a marked decline in price# on Nov. 1, 1920, as compared with Feb. 1, 1920, textiles falling 38.8 per cent and foodstuffs 16.3 per cent. Coal and coke advanced 46.9 per cent.
