No Monopoly i'm Colors,
Court Tells Taxi Rivals
Restraints Company From Using
Lettering, but Refuses to Fix
Limit ON Decoration

In the many sided controversy that
has been going on among taxicab COM
panies that use similarly colored cars,
the Appellate Division ruled yesterday
that no such concern has proprietary
rights to the use of any color combi-
nation. Accordingly the court modif ed
an injunction which the American Vel
low Taxi Operators, Inc, obtained
against Jack Diamond and the Yale
Taxi Corporation. It was charged by
the plaintiff that the defendants had
simulated its orange and black cab
coloring to deceive the public and that
this imitation was causing financial
loss.
AS modified, the injunction restrains
the defendants from initiating the
name or lettering used by the Yellow
Taxi Company on it's cars. "The
plaintiff, however" wrote Justice Page
"has not demonstrated. with sufficient
certainty to justify the inclusion in
the preliminary Injunction, it's exclu.
sive right to use the color scheme o,
combination of the colors yellow o,
orange and black, arranged in the
manner employed by the plaintiff"

Over 81 Theft
Home-Loving Postman Kills
Himself With Bullet to
Wipe Out Disgrace; Asks
Wife to Forgive Him
Sixteen Years i'm Service
Notes Tell of Shame and
Advise Family to Move
Away and Try to Forget

For sixteen years Samuel Lippe
served the government as letter car
rier. His record was clean and he was
home man, in love with his wife and
children. On Friday Postoffice In
spector Brown arrested Lippe for the
theft of two 50 bills and cheap
watch from the mails. Lippe later gave
$1,000 Liberty bond as bail.
After the hearing he went to his
home at $50 Wnitlock Avenue, the
Bronx. His wife, Bertha, and his two
| children, Bernard. fourteen years old,
and Marian, twelve, were with their
mother at Arverne, l.. /. They had not
heard of Lippe's arrest. Lippe, alone
in the apartment, prepared for death.
He placed two bankbooks on a table
with several Liberty bonds, his stock
holdings and marriage certificate. He
then wrote several notes. One dis
posed of his personal property, another
told of the theft and the disgrace that
would follow. Then there were notes
to each Of the children.
Llppe did not appear at the usual
hour yesterday morning and Ralph
Sokolof, boarder, found him dead.
A pistol lay beside him. An ambulance
surgeon said he had been dead twelve
hours.
One Of the letters he left read:
"My Darling Wife-Since typhoid
got me ! have never been the same. !
have committed wrong in the post
office which disgraces me for the rest
of my life. While I have been a good
and bad husband to you. l have al
ways loved you and the children.
When you read this l will be no more.
Think of me always and / will try
and be better man in the next world
Kiss the children for me and tell them
| died kissing their pictures.
"Your faithful husband-Sam."
The note regarding his affairs was
il part as follows:
"To My Dear WifeI leave every
thing l possess to you, to do as you
please with it. Both moneys in the
bank and on my person and personal
property. The insurance policy is in
the envelope, also bankbooks. If YOU
can't get the money back on the Durant
stock, pay the balance. l have four
teen days coming to me at the Post
office. Also receipt for $1,000 Liberty
bonds which gave for bail, which is
In my wallet. Go to Room $40, City
Hall Poostofice Building, and collect
same. May God bless you. Goodby.
as soon as you can and forget the past.
My love to the children. I'll try to
meet you in the other world"
For the last six years Lippe had
been attached to the Postoffice station
in Wall Street.

BAROMETER OF BUSINESS
BEGINS STEAD CLIMB

Business has no clearer barom-
,tcr than consumption of ncwsprint
by the daily papers of the coun-
try. Publishers who have been
paying s cents and more for news
print in carload lots will read this
with interest: "The prime minis
ter of Newfoundland announces
that the output of print paper will
Re trebled in that country; 100000
horsepower will be harnessed and
put to work on paper-making
machines"
That is welcome news against
another squeezing operation such
as put many of the smaller publish
ers out of business not long ago,
end caused most of the others to
interview their bankers.
Newsprint again is advancing in
price due to heavier buying by
publishers. AS advertising space
increases. Merchants advertise
when the public has money to
spend. When a slump comes, bust
ness withdraws its advertising APP
preparation.
The steady increase of advertis-
ing space during 1922 and the pros
poets of still greater increases for
1923, is causing the publishers to
increase their contracts for 1928

INDIFFERENT HUSBANDS
AND CARELESS WIVES

You missed , good laugh by not
seeing them. They got on the
train togethcr--a meek little "al5o
ran" wife and her gruff, pink
checked giant of a know-it-all-
husband
He didn't help her up the steps.
TO his credit, it must be admitted
that he was carrying their heavy
suitcase-though maybe due to his
observation-disclosures or the presence
f a quart inside.
He lifted the suitcase to put it
on the steel luggage rack over
head. And he grunted, that he
l:new what he was doing, when
she suggested fear that the heavy
suitcase might break down the
rack.
She started to insist, but he
snapped, cutting her off.
So they settled in their day
coach seats. The little woman un-
comfortably kept giancing up at
the rack and unconscioously fin
gering her shoulder as if prepar-
ing it for blow.
Again she ventured, Dear, I'm
afraid"
'Mind your own business, it'll
Fold" he growled.
Bang! The words were no
sooner out of his mouth, than down
came the suitcase. 1t struck
-quarely on his head, crushing his
new derby hat.
The rest of the journey was
pleasant for the other passengers.
We watched the couple as the
train sped on. 1t was easy to
reconstruct the past, to picture
them in their counting days.
She must have been a sweet lit
tie soul, dainty, graceful, gentle.
Hard work had gnarled and twiste
her hands. Worry had wrinkled
and blanched her face But her
former glory still peeped timidly
and sadly from her eyes.
AS a wooing lover, we could pic
ture him--tall, strong, assertive,
the kind that appeals to so many
sweet, shrinking women.
Of course, he had been one of
the cads who mask their real ma
ture, their inner viciousness, until
they have won their brides.
Time was unmasking him, bring
ing out his real nature, just as it
/ Goes with all of US. Not under
standing the law of the Attraction
of Opposites, his wife probably is
bewildered at the change. Maybe
She occasionally wonders if things
might not have turned out better
if she had married the other man.
1t is so easy to become thought
less, after the first few months OF
years of married life. With the
glamour gone and the romance
dulled, thoughtlessness easily be,
comes neglect.
Indifferent husbands and care
less wives are trampling their roses
The secret of real welded bliss is
in constant renewal of counting
days. Marriage is failure, The
day we become plain husband anC
wife, instead of sweethearts.
