WAR DEPT. WORRIED
 BY GERMAN ACTION
Weeks Urges Legislation to Prevent Foreigners Obtaining Too Many
 U. $. Patent Rights on Ordnance.

Washington, April 25.-Activity of German citizens in obtaining patents from the American government em- bodying many of the principles of American railroad artillery and other ordnance led Secretary Weeks to ask congress today for legislation limiting the granting of patents ito foreigners. -~ ---~
 The war secretary said 2or ord nance patents had been obtained here by German citizens since last Juiy.-1. and all tra ansferred--to Fred erick Krupp. the great ordinance manufacturer at Essen. - ~. '.-.
 ''It seems to me significant" said Secretary Weeks in letter to Vice President Coolidge" that out Of i2 patents selected at - random, eight pertain to railroad artillery and em- body many of the principles of our own railroad artillery and in view of the circumstances I feel constrained to bring he matter to your atten- tion for such action as you shall deem desirable fn the interest of the United States. sF.s aEH.- .'"
 "C,orrective legislation seems nec- essary. The principle involves the policy of the government granting patent activities in this country had with whom the United. States is al war. Furthermore the question arises whether we should not re- auire that all foreign patents be put into operation within the period of say, two or three years, so as to forcstall condItion arising similar Go that relating, to the dye industry at the beginning of the late war wherein the Germans. through their -patert-~et4~itie in--ih4s- country had practically eliminated America n manufacture of dyestuffs because oi the protection received by their Am ertcan patents which not licensed oi otherwise put .nto operation in the United states."

COOK CALLS ON LAW-MAKIGRS
Says People Look to Them for Adj
vice and Counsel.
Editor Keowee Courier:

Editor Keowee Courier:
The people Of our vicinity would
like to hear the sentiments Of our
Senator and Representatives in re-
gard to the financial troubles of the
County Supervisor. We will admit
that we are not posted in regard to
the laws OF our country, but the peo-
pie naturally look to our law-mak-
ers for advice or some explanation
on matter like this. In fact, we do
not think anybody else can legally
arrange this matter. We know it
will be good, long time until our
Legislature will convene again, but
1t seems to us that the members Of
the General Assembly and the Super
visor should get together, hold a
business meeting and arrange mat
ters. If the members Of the General
Assembly would promise to appro-
pirate the amount Of money needed,
they could probably borrow the
money from some of the banks until
the next convening of the Assembly.
We think the only trouble about
this plan would be finding bank
that has the money to loan. But Just
any arrangement will be better than
TO entirely abandon the rural mail
routes until next year.
Yours truly, J. A. Cook.

SUITS FOR A MILLION DOLLARS
Have Been Filed in Charleston for
Recovery from u. S. Government.

Columbia, April 25. - What Is
thought to be the largest amount in
volved in any civil litigation in South
Carolina is that sought in the suits
brought against the United States
government for determination Of the
purchase price Of the land on which
the so-called Port Terminals, at
North Charleston, are located, tho
cases to be tried at the term Of Fed
eral Court which starts in Charles
ton on May 3. The Port Terminals
cases, as they are called, are on tlfe
docket Of the May term, this infor-
nation having been received by the
Federal Court officials here.
1t Is said that the amount involv-
ed In the litigation is more than a
million dollars. The former owners
Of the land on which the port tor
minals are located are suing the gov
ernment for the amount Of money
asked as tho purchase price OF the
land. The government does not want
to pay the price asked, alleging that
this Is too high.
There are four cases in this litiga-
tion, each brought by one OF the
owners Of the land on which the ter
minals are located The owners are
the Filbin Company, the Charleston
Farms Company, the Lockwood Co.
and the Seaboard Air Line Railroad.
