BLOOM PLANS SALE
OF PATENT OFFICE
Representative Renews Bill Which
Provides for Transfer to
New Site.

Representative Sol Bloom, Repub-
lican, of New York. yesterday reintro-
duced in the House his bill providing
for the sale Of the present Patent
Office site and the acquisition of a now
site. on which a modern, fireproof
building, specially designed TO accom-
MEDIATE the Patent Office, would be
erected.
Mr.. Bloom conferred with Chairman
Elliott of the House committee on
public buildings and grounds, to which
this bill has been referred. seeking
d bill hearing on the project, which
he estimates will Immediately yield a
clean profit of at least 81 100000 to
the Government, besides providing
suitable quarters for the Patent
Office.
Mr.. Bloom emphasized that all Of
the important industrial enterprises
in the country are behind this propo-
sition, because the business of the
Patent Office is now seriously delayed
by improper housing.
The Bloom bill would direct the
Secretary of the Treasury. the Secre-
tary of the Interior and the architect
of the Capitol, acting as a commits
sion, to acquire by purchase, COM
demnation or otherwise a suitable site
for a modern fireproof Office building
which will provide sufficient accom-
mediation for the present and esti-
mated future requirements Of the
Patent Office.
This commission would be author
lied to enter into contract for the
construction Of the new building, in
GLIDING adequate fireproof vaults.
For the purposes Of effecting this
demolition Of the historic building now
occupied by the Patent Office, this
commission would be authorized to
employ technical and engineering
service.

THE CAPITOL.

Hypnotism plays a prominent part
in "Curlytop,' the latest starring
vehicle of Shirley Mason which
comes to the Capitol Theatre Friday.
In the picture Curlytop Shirley
Mason) is cast a. a waif living in
the notorious Limehouse district of
London. The fact that she Il diff
ferent from the rest of the girls
causes her to become an object of
special attention.
Tom Brannigan, an outcast of
civilization, is intrigued by the
girls freshness and beauty and to
him she recalls brighter and hap
pier days. &
To Shanghai Dan, q white man
who has lived among the orientals
for so long time that he has
really lost his identity, the girl is
new toy. Versed in the devious
arts of the Orientals he is an adept
at hvpnotism and attempts to win
the girl by the power of the eye.
Just what happens eventually and
the many dramatic incidents that &C.
cur during the action of the play,
is familiar to those who have read
"Curlytop' which is .one of the not
able stories of Thomas BurIe's Lime
house Nights, the most widely read
volume Of stories of the past year.
