Senator George w. Norris, of Ne
braska, chairman of the Senate Pat
ents Committee and of the confer
ence committee, has appealed to the
senate to fix time for taking the
hnal vote. Il agree that the same
privileges should apply to every
body" said the Senator in answer
to Senator Reed. But 80 per cent
of the patent ONCE business comes
from government employees, and
there is no compulsion about 1t.
Placing these matters in the hands
of the Federal Trade Commission
Is done to put into service thou
sands Of patents that go into the
pigeonholes Of monopolies! Between
the scientific departments OF the
| government there is too much pre-
judice to expect the matters to be
placed in the hands of one official
such as the Secretary of Interior
as has been suggested. and there
seemed nothing better to do than
to make the Federal Trade Commits

the Secretary of Interior. under

No Naval Probe
 Is Expected

As was announced in last nights Times the Lake Submarine S-4S which sunk in Long Island Sound on the afternoon of December was brought to the local plant yesterday afternoon. The saIvaging of the boat which took over zen days was one of the greatest engineering feafs ever accomplished in that line of work. It was necessary to get fhe largest derrick afiOat to do the work and then it was not known at first whether they would be successful. However, the pull of the derrick was a little too much for Ghe water pres sure to withstand with the result that <he boat was finally raised.
 It was stated this morning that af- ter the few minor repairs that can be made at the local plant the sub will be lowed to the New london naval base where she will be completely overhauled. It will probably be six months before the boat will be again in rouning order.
 T. was also stated that there will be no official investigation by the Navy Department who will probably abide by the finding sent in by the com pany.

Course For Scout Leaders Will Be
 Started Here

Realizing the need of trained lead ership in Boy Scout work in this city a scout leaders training course will be started. Jan. 24, in this city. This idea was inaugurated last year and Is a regular college course meriting two points in the curriculum ot any standard college. Two men, who have made a special study of the art of leadership and the methods of ex- pressing it, were secured as instruc- tress and will come to the city again this year to hold classes in the Boy Scout headquarters. The course con- tains sixteen lessons, one given each week.
 ''The value of trained leadership is wonderful" said Howard Simpson, president of the council, when an- course.'' The students are shown primarily how to be men, and sec ondly to love and help their brothers. It has been found that the influence of this course is also affecting the younger scouts. realizing the training of the older men they just play a lit tie game of follow the leader and the manly spirit instilled in the train ed men comes down to the troop mem bers.
 we have now a troop of Boy Scouts in practically every church and institution of the city. The Boy Scouts go into these churches and institutions, not for their own special benefit but to promote a plan by which the church may benefit in fu- ture years by making these boys men, not only from a. spiritual standpoint but from that of character and manly spirit"
 In speaking of the personnel of the troops MT Simpson stated that many people have the wrong idea that scout troops are made up only of boys. This idea is utterly wrong." he said. If they were only for boys they could not exist and would crumb1e away. Boy Scout troops need men, They need their financial support and their mature ideas"
 A dinner for the scout committee men will be held Jan. at the Strat- fordshire house on John street, when the plan of contributing candidates for the leadership course, will be dis cussed. The training of the leaders whomust be over 21 years of age. is financed by the organization sending them.

 The story of IreIa nd's fight for home rule which has recently cu1 minated in the signing of the Anglo Irish treaty, is being shown in the form of a, motion picture at Dawes theatre this week. The subject brief y sketches the course of Ireland's efforts to free itself from Great Bri- tdin, presenting wealth of interest ing historical data as well as photo graphs and biographies of all the fla nous Irish Nationalists such as Par nell. Emmett DeValera and Griffith.
 AS the result of the showing at Dawes this week of the Irish sub iect, the new playhouse has become | veritab1e mecca for the city's Hi- bernians many of whom have per 5onally complimented the theatre management for its enterprise in se- turing the feature. The pictures were filmed by a cameranan for the Fox Film Corporation who secured a ;pecial permit from the British gov 'rnment that enabled him to photo -raph several of the real life scenes erence at which the treaty was fram- -renier Lloyd George and the Irish eIegation are some of the highliGhts the film.

WEST END

The countless thousands who have read Florence L. Barclays great nov el, 'The Mistress of Shenstone" will welcome the news that in it's screen adaptation by Robertson-Cole as a super-special vehicle for the sterling emotional actress Pauline Frederick not fragment of its atmosphere, or the delicacy of it's character delinea- tons has been lost.
 Miss Fred erick, in the role of Lady Myra Ingleby, is as truely Lady Ingle- by. as ii Mrs Barclay had written the character about her. Even in her physical appearance she fits the de- scription of the 'big-souled English woman who faces life's tragedies with a smile and at last finds happiness.
 Indeed, throughout the entire pro duction, it is noticeable that Henry Rink, the director, has striven and has succeeded in following closely the book from which the play was adapted. The cast in support of Miss Frederick $ an excellent one.
 'fThe Mistress of Shenstone" Is shown tonight at the West End thea ire.

Boxing Should
 Be Abolished Says Governor

Detroit, Dec. 21-"Boxing has be- come altogether too commerctahzed; ; it is no longer sport and should be abolished" declared Gov. Alexander J. Groesbeck today.
 'sI do not believe the public is get ting a run for it's money. Application has been made to me by the AIner1- can Legion of Michigan for permis- sion to take charge of boxing through 2. partial or complete reorganization of the State Boxing Commission, placing control of the commission in the hands of the Legionaries- They believe that they can clean up box ing. I hardly subscribe to the idea, because l doubt that it would be a success.'
 If public sentiment crystallizes on the subject the governor indicated he would take action to stop the sport in Michigan.
