WOMEN DEMAND
 MORE DIGNIFIED
 MOVIE MINISTERS

St. Louis, Mo, Nov. 2O-The Wom- ems Board of Religious Organizations has protested to St. Louis motion picture managers against undigni- fled representations of ministers in the movies.
 Mrs Louis J. Brooks. president of the board made public the text of the protest, follows:
 'At a meeting Friday the amuse- ments department voted to commun- icate with movie managers of the city in Preference to a serious affront to the religious sentiment of our con stituency.
 ''Very frequently in movie comedy and often in drama, the clergy is represented in a manner reflecting on the dignity and sanctity of the ministry.
 we strongly condemn this and urge you to refuse to show films calculated to undermine the respect and influence of the. churches and their ordained representatives.
 Assuring you of our keen interest and support of your efforts to pro- vide educatinal and recreatinal flea lures, we trust that the matter which we now call to your attention will Gion.''
 In discussing the letter Mrs. Brooks said:
 'sHow can we expect our children to respect the clergy and the cause for which it stands, if they con- Stantly see ministers caricatured on the screen? It is our duty to show in no uncertain terms that we dis approve the presentation of such films, and we are ready to refuse to patronize theatres where such films are shown

Swedish employers have in ge

Swedish employers have in generai opposed the establishing of uni form short day on the ground that the cost of production has been ln- creased and that it has led to difncui- ties in those industries where tne output huctuates. where producuon Is intense during some weeks ana siacs during others Similar disadvantases have arisen in all seasonal trades A peculiar circumstance in this country is that. owing to the latitude, the days are unusually long in summer ana short in winter. Thus where WorR can be done during daylight as in ths building trades, an eight hour day works hardahips for the employer and limits the amount Of building possible during the year.
 Keeping the above objections in mind the Social board has recom- mended that the hours of over tfIns allowed be increased from 20 per month to 30, and from 120 per year to 150- With this f1exibility in the law it is believed the disadyanta ges or more rigid system can be obyiaced
 The workers declare that the la bor efficiency has increased under the provisional law. They are enthusias- tic over the better standard or nv. ing which il has brought. giving them more time for social and domestic life, as well as for study. recreauons and general self-improvement

BIRTHDAY OF THE
GREAT TEDDY WAS
OBSERVED FRIDAY
Stops Its Official Duties
on Friday to Do Honor to Memory
Of Great American TheO-
dOre Roosevelt.

Washington. Oct. 27.-The spirit of
Theodore Roosevelt walked abroad in
Washington today.
Formal celebration of his birthday
was claimed by the Navy for its own,
and there is none who would challenge
the navys right to revel in memories
of Roosevelt, to pay gladly the debt of
gratitude it owes to him. But aside
from all this, from the prepared aid
dresses on Navy Day that dealt large
ly with his sayings and his works for
the navy, there ran a curious under
current of talk among men everywhere
that bore witness to the place the
dead President had made for himself
in American hearts.
1t was natural that around the Navy
Department Roosevelt's name should
find its way into every casual CONVEX
sation as older officers paused to chat
a moment in the long corridors Many
of these personal stories recalled his
career as assistant secretary of the
navy, the post his son and namesake
now holds. Traditions old in the navy
were shattered in those days and new
traditions, dear to the hearts of sailor
folk of today, were built up in their
place around the dominant, energetic
eager personality that even an assist
ant secretaryship could not subdue.
But it was striking that the talk OF
Roosevelt was not confined to the
navy or the army or to government
circles, but ran everywhere about the
nations capital. From lip to lip init
mate human pictures of the man were
sketched as men who knew him me.

TRANSMISSION OF POWER
By RADIO is ACHIEVED.

San Francisco, Oct 27.-Transmis-
sion Of electric motive power by radio
was accomplished for what is believed
the first time here by the United States
Radio Corporation, a local concern. In
the course of experiments sufficient
electric energy was transmitted 1000
feet to light brilliantly two 12o-volt
5O-watt tungsten bulbs. Another sue
cessful experiment consisted in the
ringing of an electric doorbell in
Berkeley, a city on the opposite side of
San Francisco bay, with radio power
transmitted here.

Henry Ford Defendant
In 10000 900 Suit
Engineer Claims Damages for
Royalties on Magnetic Used
on Automobiles

MIAMI, Fla, March Damages in
the sum of $l1 100000 are sought OF
Henry Ford by Edward S. Huff, Miami
electrical engineer, in a suit instituted
here to-day. Huff asserts that he origi-
mated the magnetic now in use on motor
cars manufactured by Ford and claims
that Ford has not paid him in full fol-
the invention.
Counsel for Huff received word from
Fort Myers to-day that service in the
suit had been obtained there on Mr.
Ford
Huff claims to hold the patents on
the magnetic used on all minor equip
ment manufactured by the Ford Motor
Company of Detroit, and asserts that
he has been paid only $4,000 in royal
ties on his patent.
According to Huf's counsel, Huff
was employed in the Ford plant in 1905
as an electrician, and it is asserted
that Ford told him in the presence OF
Dr. W. Z. Sanborn, of Detroit, that he
wished Huff to invent a magnetic which
could work on fly wheel, adding that
such an invention would make Huff 8
rich man. Huff thereupon left Ford'S
employ, went to work on the invention
and finally perfected the magnetic now
in use, his counsel claims.

threw handkerchief over his face
soaked in some pungent drug, which
Komonsky took to be chloroform. An
other, he says, struck him on the head
several times with a blackjack.
His last recollection Of the events
of Friday night is being bundled into
an autom obile. When he recovered his
senses it was daylight and he was in
a barn. Windows and doors were
nailed or locked and it was not until
Monday morning that he called the at
tention of farmland to his plight by
kicking at the door. He was weak from
hunger and had no money. His ia
theirs brother, William Komonsky, lives
in Albany, and Komonsky walked to
tina. city, arriving there in the evening
and telegraphng to his parents.
The sophomores abducted him, he
says, in the hope that he had in his
pocket the money collected for the
fres shman class dance, which was held
in the Waldorf-Astria Saturday night.
The sophomores are TO have their
dance there April 8, and were trying to
prevent the freshman event from tax
ing place, Komonsky says, fearing that
| it would cut into the receipts from
their dance. Komonsky turned over
the honey to the class treasurer short
| iy before ne was captured.
| An inquiry into the alleged nazing
is being conducted at Cooper Union.
