Engineers Assail
Stanley Plan to
Guard Inventions
Would Not Prevent Germans
From Patching Work of
Americans as Monopoly,
Says Socieiy's Committee
From The Tribane's Washington Bureom

From The Tribane's Washington BureGn
WASHINGTON. Oct. 2.-Thc Aneri-
can Engineering Council of the Feder-
atcd American Engineering Societies,
which is seeking to remedy what it calls
"deplorabe conditions" in the Patent
Office, to-day made public the report of
its patent committee opposing the
Stanley bill The council previously
had adopted recommendation of the
committee urging the passage Of the
Lampert bill, which, it is asserted. will
stop the retrogression of the Patent
Office
The committee, headed by Edwin J.
Prindle, OF New York, announced "it
is very much opposed to the Stanley
bill" and added.
"This bill is said to have been in
troduced at the request Of the Secre-
tary of War because foreigners were
patcnting inveVions which had been
made by American engineers and sell
ing them to the Krupps, and the Krupps
were buying them 50 that we could not
use our own inventions for our own
defense
"The measure provides that any
-'~~'NN
citizens of the United States shall be
worked in this country within two years
from the date Of issue.
'Thc bill introduces dangerous in
novation. The remedy for preventing
the Germans from patenting the invcn-
tons made by Americans, but which
have not been patented by Americans
is simply to prove when suit is
brought under the patent that the in
vention was made and publicly used
by Americans before the application by
the Germans was filed, which proof
would result in invalidating the
patents.
"If the object is, to compel the Ger
mans to manufacture the inventions ir
this country that would be just the op-
posite Of the efforts which were nfads
during the war to root out the peace
full penetration Of American industry
by the Germans.
"Where an invention is one which

many chemical inventions, the Ger

II. S. Plans
Too Drastic
For Britain
England Seeks Elastic Re-
placement Program Rather
Than l0-Year Holiday
Would Abolish Subs.
Accepts in Principle"
ny The Associated Press.

Washington, Nov. l4.-Great
Britain's acceptance I'm principle OF
the American proposals for lmta-
ton of naval armamentS contem-
plates an alteration OF the plan in
several important details.
The British acceptance will be
presented at tomorrow's preliminary
session OF the conference by A. ].
Baliour. head of the mission. Japans
acceptance "in principle" although
forecast by the statements OF Baron
Kato, may be delayed as the Japanese
mission must confer with Toxic.
Mr.. Baliour may not outline de-
tails of Great Britain's reservations,
but they are substantially described
this way:
Want Elastic Program.
Instead of flat l0-year hol',.ay,
Great Britain wants the replacement
program to be an elastic one
spread over a period OF years.
Great Britain would like TO see the
submarine outlawed from naval war
fare; failing this, she wants to sec
their tonnage and equipment dis
tinctly limited. She feels that the
submarine fleets allowed by the
American program are too great; she
has never had so large submarine
fleet as the proposals would allow
her.
The United States, Great Britain
feels, would have her at disadvant-
age in airplanc carrying ships, under
the American proposals, because
while Great Britain has an equipment
of these craft, the United States
would have to build new the number
allotted. They would be of later de-
sign and of superior Improvement
while British ships would be obsolete.
Want Limited Disarmament.
Great Britain wants the replace
ment program spread over a period
of years, because, British naval ex-
perts argue, the program could be
carried on with a small equipment
of building plant at small scale,
probably a ship at time. If a flat
l0-year holiday were to be declared,
they say, facilities for making
wholesale replacement after 10 years
would have to be kept in organiza-
ton and although great fleets of war
ships might be consigned to the junl,
pile, facilities for reproducing them
still would exist.
Such a program, the British naval
experts say, does not go to the root
of the question. Therefore they will

Larsen Denies
Charge He Was
A Poor Loser
Suit for Aviation Trophy Be-
fore Judge Wakeley Is Re-
plete With Humorous
Situations.

John NJ. Larsen, donor Of the
trophy for the aviation contest
bearing his name and owner of the
two JL-6 monoplanes, which he
contends won the event over the
s. V. A. biplane which was awarded
the victory by the Aero congress
contest committee, denied emphat-
ically in district court yesterday
afternoon that he is poor loser"
Larsen was called to the witness
stand in Judge A. c. Wakeley's
court to prove his claims that Z. F.
White, pilot of the plane which was
declared winner, used fraud in the
contest by carrying more fuel than
was charged against him. The
technical committees report after
the race on November 5. showed
that the S. " A. used 1888 gallons
of gasoline.
Alleges "Plain Steal"
THAT is SO preposterous that no
man with any mechanical knowledge
would claim it." Larsen declared.
Its plain steal"
He said the Italian plane could
not possibly have gone the 240-mile
distance on less than 80 gallons Of
fuel and offered figures based on his
opinion of the motors possibilities
to prove his contention.
Larsen, on croSS-eXamlnation by
Paul L. Martin, counsel for White,
said he does not know what the
Larsen trophy's value will be or
what it will cost to produce. 1t has
not been completed, he said. He
characterized the $4,000 cash. award
for first place as "cigaret money
in comparison TO the value of the
trophy and the honor of winning it.
Eddie Stilson, one OF the Larsen
pilots, who has flown an S. " A.
plane, testified he believed White
could not have covered the race dis
tance on the amount of fuel which
the technical report shows him to
have used.
No Direct Evidence of Frauds
Throughout the day, however,
there was no direct evidence of
fraud introduced. White testified he
had drained the tanks of the plane,
including the one Larsen alleges was
filled fraudulently, and that all gaso-
line he carried was charged to him,
in addition to gallon or more he
spilled after it had been weighed
and he was trying to put it into the
tank
Larsen kept the courtroom in
constant uproar by his verbal tits
with the opposing counsel, launch
ing into dissertations on aviation at
fairs often, instead of answering the
questions propounded. He was
warned by the court to refrain from
the impromptu speeches, but the
warnings had little effect.
The case will be continued this
morning and is expected to occupy
the greater part of today.

and screamed for help.
Postoffice employees from sub
station across the street saved many
before the firemen reached the scene.
One man became exhausted while
