NEWS OF THE PRINTERY
PUBLICATION OF OFFICIAL GA
zETTE SUSPENDED.

The publication of the Odicial Gazette Of
the patent ONCE has been suspended at the
government printing office until provision Il
made by Congress for the payment for la
Dor and supplies used In getting 1t out.
The issue of the Gazette is made up and
printed three weeks prior to the date OF
issue. and the Office has finished the last
issue for the month of June. It Is believed
that temporary provision win be made by
Congress for carrying on the work IL the
generally supply bill is not about completed.
The main Inconvenience incident to a fall
ure to print the Gazette will be to the
thousands of patent attorneys throughout
the country who are subscribers to the
weekly issue of the Gazette. The division
at the big printery which handles this work
has been placed on the regular work of the
departments and several of the expert proof
readers transferred to the specification d.
vision, which issues the printed copies OF
patents In single form.
The law prohibiting the creation of de-
ficiencies by heads of departments and bu-
reaus has resulted in several important
changes at the government printing Office.
The application of this law to printing ap-
proprtations will. 1t is said. practically elm
mate the old practices and will make the
employment of large force during the
summer months a matter of some moment.
