NEW Invention
CAUSES SUIT.
Grant Plea for Injunction in
Affairs of the American
Ground Clamp Co.

On application made by Wind
man-Goldsmith, Inc, with David
Goldsmith, a rule to show cause has
been granted by Vice Chancellor
Buchanan, returnable September 10,
against Philip Windman, for an En-
junction restraining Windman from
selling or disposing of an invention
application for a patent of an article
known as the American Ground
Clamp. which application is now
pending with the patent office in
Washington. All parties interested
reside in this city.
The Observation-Disclosures corpor-
alton claims that David Goldsmith
purchased from Frank Windman a
one-half interest in a co-partnership
business conducted by him and
Philip Windman under the name of
Windman Electric Company in 1920.
Thereafter David Goldsmith and
Philip Windman, the remaining CO.
partners, agreed to form a corpora
ton to be known as the Windman
Goldsmith, Inc, and the corporation
to take over the co-partnership
business and further agreed hat any
inventions which either one may
make should belong to the corpor-
alton. In March, 1921, Philip Wind
man withdrew from the co-partner-
ship.
The corporation now alleges that
while Windman was connected with
it he invented a new ground clamp
for which a patent right has been
applied for and which patent right
should belong to the corporation.
The corporation also contends that
while Windman was connected with
it he took a list of the customers and
has since used this list as a competi-
tor. Pending the hearing the vice
chancellor granted a temporary in
junction restraining Windman from
disposing of the patent right under
the application made by him. The
corporation was represented by the
law firm of Wight, Wight & Golen-
hook

UNDERWOOD WITH
 HITCHCOCK COULD
 KILL PEACE PACT
Ratification Would Be lm- probable Should Party Leaders Throw Weight
 Against Treaty
By HUGH ". ROBERTS Washington Bureau, The Age Herald,
 knO navfdsOn BuiIdiuR,

Washington, october 17.--(Special.) The majority of democratic sem ators. who will oppose ratification of tho German treaty declare tonight that tho effort of the Harding admin istrauop to terminate the long exist ing state of war would result Tn to- tai failure but for the attitude of Senator Underwood, minority lender, and Senator Hitchook, ranking mi norlty member of the foreign rela- tions committee.
 This contention Is probably true an lncompleted poll indicated this after noon. It Is reasonably certain that as democrats and three republicans will vote against ratification. This would indicate that the treaty will be ratified by five to eight votes in OK cess of the necessary two thirds ma jority. Were Underwood and Hitch cock to throw their weight against the treaty. it Is regarded as entirely probable that ratification would be defeated.
 Senators Underwood and Hitchcock have taken a well defined position regarding the treaty. In effect it is this: I've fought for the Versailles treaty without reservation, and then with reservations. Were we to op- pose the pending treaty simply be- cause the republicans defeated the Versailles treaty, we woHld be guilty of playing petty politics, crime we brought against the republican party. We do not approve of the treaty be- fore the Senate. But 1t Is our judg- mont that business affairs of ,he world require a cessation of the tech nical state of war between the United States and Germany"
 It is unquestionably true that cer- tain other democrats are criticizine Underwood and Hitchcock for their present position. In caucus. however, the democrats some time a go declined to take position regarding the treaty as party, and by formal action per mitted each senator to follow his own judgment.
 Republican leaders, while believing that ratification is a foregone con clusion are losing sleep watching the trend of sentiment. It is known that they have requested Governor Sproul of Pennsylvania rapidly to' name the successor to the late Sen atoi Knox and to See to it that tho man named was "all right" regard ing ratification
