REV GERMAN METHoD FOR MEAS

C014tC EAoA1CS-E. 4. SIeeVey F.,
Consul at Glauchau, writes the State
Department, under date Of June 2:
Letters patent fo- a unique device for
measuring the Iergth of fabrics have
recently been granted to Herr I c.
stephan. OF Crimmitsehau, this consular
district. The apparatus consists Of a
graduated paper band or tape. which is
automatically wound Up with the cloth.
A similar device has already been en-
ployed for measuring fabrics, but when
used Tor very fine goods. such as silks.
velvet, satins. etc, it was found that an
impression was left by the strip, which
often rendered delicate materials IN
salabIe. This wes mainly due to the
fect that the tape was wound in super
Imposed layers The new device obvi-
ates this difficulty BY constantly charging
the position OF the measuring band.
