PATENTS
CLAIMS OUTLINED
q. S. Attorney Tells Court
) Exact Basis of Govern.
ment Suit.
3y the Associated Press.

IN the Associated PreS8-
WILMINGTON. Del, July 5.-Cross-
examination of Francis p. Caravan.
pgesident OF the Chemical Founda-
tion. was interrupted today in federal
district court by a prolonged discus
stpn between Judge Morris and coun-
sci as to the major contentious of the
government in seeking to nullify the
sale OF seized German dye and chemi-
col patents to the Chemical Founda-
ton.
SHenry r. Anderson, special as
sSstant attorney general, declared the
first contention was that as a matter
OF law the sale should be declared
void owing to the relationship be-
tWeen the parties to the sale. and that
regardless of the consideration paid.
secondly. he said, the purchase price
was wholly and grossly inadequate"
and that the government deemed II
a duty to recover the patents and to
held them for such disposition as
Congress might direct.
Mr.. Anderson said he would concur
that the development of the chemical
aud dyestuff industry was desirable
thing. but argued that under the law
the allen property custodian. In max
Ing the sale, had no authority to take
this matter into considerations; that
the government was protected as to
asfuture chemical industry because it
had possession of the patents.
SQuestioned by Mr.. Anderson as to
how the price of s250,000 paid for the
PATENTS was arrived at Mr.. Caravan
seid 1t grew out of the general ne
gotiations," adding that this was the
largest price we could get and the
least we could accept" The witness
explained that consideration had
been given to the cost of the patents
to the persons who had taken them
out originally.

CHAPTER XIII.
'T. Alone, Can Save Him.

NI, Al0ney Tan save Elm'
If some one had suddenly told Phil
1ipa Mannersley that her father had
come TO life again, she could scarcely
have been more surprised than she
was by the cashiers announcement.
She stared at him with dilating eyes,
wondering If he had taken leave of
his senses-if some strange event,
some sudden illness, had upset his
mental balance.
But the Stead she saw sitting be-
fore her was the Stead she had al
ways known-the cool, calm, imper-
turbabfe young man, ScrupulouSly
dressed after his quiet and almost
somber fashion, and evidently quite
master of himself. And she turned
white and then red and then white
again, as she realized the significance
of the announcement which he had
made to her almost unconcernedly
as he might have announced any
trivial event concerned with the col
liery.
Il do not understand" she fall
tered.
The cashier drew his chair little
nearer to hers and spoke again in
his usual even tones and in guard
edly low voice.
IT will repeat what said" he al

all who knew him were aware, that
he ever did smile, and when he did
the smile was inscrutable. 1t seemed
to Phillipa that it was more inscru-
table than ever on this occasion.
TT was perhaps not in my power
to do so then" he said.
"Ah, / see,' said Phillipa; you
have heard new evidence-perhaps
you have discovered some? OF course,
you will see the solicitor and the
police at once, Mr.. Stead?"
She was wondering why he had
not gone to police and solicitor before,
instead Of coming to her. And, as
If his deep-set eyes were able to

mind.

"Yes-why particularly to rne?" she

blank wonder. 1t was full minute
before she could find words.

cousin, Sir Clinton, is the first person

inscrutable smile.

and Donts for the Home Decorator With Slender Purse

~ HE woman with a taste for
beautiful things and limited
income is all too frequently
discouraged when she sees the lovely
photographs of effects achieved by
skilled decorators and artists. But"
she signs, Gust think of the amount
of money they had at their disposal;
no wonder their results are dreams
Of studied simplicity and beauty"
And then, signing again, she throws
down the magazine or article in dis
gust, and despairs of ever improving
her home and surroundings because
Of her limited means.
Simplicity Above All.
But while slender purse is, no
doubt, drawback, it need not be an
insurmountable obstacle in the mat
ter of interior decorating. Beautiful
things cost money, there's no deny
ing that, but beautiful effects may be
achieved by combining quite simple
and inexpensive articles.
A little time given to the matter of
color schemes and combinations will
yield unexpectedly good results. Re
