HOLD HUN PATENTS

NEW YORK, Feb. Representative
OF the dye manufacturing Industry met
at India House yesterday and took the
FIRST step toward bringing 10 the at
tentlon OF The Alien Property Custodian
the desire that patents for German
dyes be sold 10 a non-proft making
pool Of chemical producers, so that no
one concern may secure monopoly. II
Is contended that Joint ownership and
consequent wider distribution OF pat
ent rights VIII be Of greater beneflt 10
the American people.
The plan OF the chemical manufac-
turers Is 10 make the pool a holding
company with the power TO license any
manufacturer OF dyes who desires to
make the oolors for which the Allen
Property Custodian now holds the pat
ents and which up TO a short time ago
were In the custody OF the Federal
Trade Commission. This commission
up 10 the present time has issued the
licenses under which the manufacture
OF dyes patented by the Germans was
permitted in this country.
Among those who attended the meet
Ing yesterday were representatives OF
the General Chemical Company, du.
Pont Chemical Company, MerrimaC
Chemical Company, National Anillne
and Chemical Company and Grassell
Chemical Company. II was decided &c

URGES STUDENTS TO
FAVOR WAGE MEASURE
Epeelal 70 The Evenlng journal.

10 luc LNCuluS
NEWARK, Del, Feb. 5.-A return
visit, TO Newark was made today, by
Miss Clara Southwick. Of the Consum-
ers' League Of Delaware, when she
spoke TO the student body OF Delaware
College at Chapel at the invitation of
President S. C. Mitchell. Last week Miss
Southwiek addressed the student body
Of the Women's College OF Delaware.
Miss Southwick's address to the men
students was a brief exposition OF the
minimum wage bill from the employ
ers' point OF view.
"The great advantage OF this bin TO
the employers" said Miss Southwlck's
"is that he benefits quite as much as
the employees affected by the provisions
Of the bill. In the eounsels Of the min
lmum wage board whose duties are de-
fined in certain sections in the bill. he
has equal representation with the
worker and with the public.
zone OF the most efficient employers
in the country. member Of the United
State Chamber Of Commerce, appearing
before the Senate and House committee
on the minimum wage bill for the Dis
trict OF Columbia last year said he had
noticed a curious thing about the hear
ings on minimum wage. that II had
always been a plea for the working
people.
NOW" he said, 1--WE bosses get as
much from the minimum wage as our
people do, because a S. a week girl
makes a cheap boss. That Is literally
true, you cannot get real organization
Out OF people who are uninielligent,
and people cannot be intelligent who
have not enough 10 live properly on.
A working girl worried about paying
for her clothing and her lodging is not
going TO be very ambitious you know.
- She is not going as a rule 10 have
the ambition to try 10 learn how b
earn more money
1T Is the view OF this employer
whose name is a household word In
the speciality business throughout the
county" related Miss Southwick, that
the source OF the employers power is
In the employees. Is IL the employers
aim 10 treat them as cooperative part
ners or on merely traditional and now
d!scredited lines as a labor commodity
only7 Much hangs on that decision.
The practical tried experience Of this
employer has been that the better the
employees are of the better the en-
ployers are OF.
1T has been laid down by eflcient
employees as an axiom OF practical
everyday application that the better
the wage the cheaper the cost Of SELL
ing"
Mss Southwick, in closing, appealed
d the students 10 look into the ques-
tion Of the merits OF the minimum
wage bin for themselves and TO ex-
anime the evidence before adopting
preiud'ced attitude Of judging or con-
denim ing before hearing.

Taking their cue from this sentiment

proposition 10 extend the time, 1t is
said, has been agreed on by the orlgi-
nators Of the bill. Il Is a question
however, whether even that conces-
sion will save the bill. Many dry

Federal proposition at this time. as
under existing conditions the nation

argue, but the fact remains that as

tion will go dry" July T.
The lower county dry" members
contend that In case the Presidential
order should be rescinded July 1, al
lowing the sale Of liquor to continue
until January i6, 1920, II would not be
fair to put Wilmington dry for that
