BY GEORGE II. MANNING

BY frEOktE II. MANNiNiI
 tWashington Bureau of x. B. Herald)
 Washington, July Is LP9 - The Stanley Works, Of New Britain, Conn, is not entitled to register, as a trademark for planes, the color red applied to the handle and knob of planes, in view of the prior prac- tice Of the Millers Falls company, of Millers Falls, Mass, of marking tools in a similar manner.
 The grounds of the decision, made by First Assistant Commissioner of Patents Kinnan today, are that the goods of the two companies belong Ito the same class and the marks are such that their coutcmporaneous use on these goods would be likely to cause confusion in the mind of the public.

GAS PUMP APPEAL
 ID COME UP AGAIN
Protest Withdrawn at Adjust
 m0lt Board Meeting

Arch street residents opposing the Singer Oil conlpany's plan to place a filling station at 665 Arch street, will present a new remonstrance to the board of adjustment this week.
 At a meeting of the board last night, Hungerford & Sake, attorneys for the oil company, successfully contended that the appeal filed ear Her in the week was not properly before the board since it was not based on violation of the zone law, but on matters of public safety and absence of a need for such a con- venience. The appeal was with drawn in the course of the discus sion.
 Disqualification of Judge B. F. Gaffney, a member of the board, by reason of the appearance of his son. Attorney Donald Gaffney, for Land CTS, Frary &s Clark, as objector to the Kilbourne filling station resulted in tabling of that matter. Kilbourne has partly constructed a filling sta- tion ong Stanley street. Hungerford & Sake, Kilbourne's attorneys, Of fered no objection to the continu- ance.
 The board having once rejected an application Of B. Gordon for a change from residence to business uses of his property on Greenwood street, new application submitted l last night was tabled.
 Explaining that change Of zone affecting the property of Alfred F. Levitt on Court street would be a duplication of the boards recent vote to allow a special exception on that plot, the board will notify the common council that action is not necessary. LeWitt's property was partly in a residential and partly in a business district. He asked that all be included in the latter zone and this was brought about through the special exception.
 Jerry Albanese asked permission to build a bakery on Wilcox street, now zoned for residences, and the matter was tabled for investigation,
 Cesare Rosia asked to be allowed to disregard the s.de lot lines in a Mill street dwelling and it was sug- l gested that he amend his plan.
 It was voted to notify the corpor- ation counsel to be in readiness to
 defend the city in the appeal of Miss
 Julia Naples from the ruling of the board that her Hart street house lis not one family dwelling.

Gen. BULLARD
Ole Hanson, Tool of
War Dept, in Seattle
By Arr SHIELDS, Federated Press

BY ART SHIELDS, Federated Press.
NEW YORK, Feb. 5. = The United
States army as a strikebreaking agen-
cy has again been revealed from the
inside. This time by Major General
Robert Lee Billiard, also president Of
the National Security League. He
drew back the curtain from Seattle
general strike days by telling the gov
eminent club at the Hotel Astor that
Mayor Ole Hanson was merely a tool
of the war department.
81 am letting you into a military
secret" said Billiard, when tell you
that Ole Hanson was called up from
the Office of the Secretary Of War in
Washington, and told that he must
have backbone in meeting the crisis.
He was told that the army would
back him up in whatever steps he
undertook"
The general continued in dime
novel fashion to talk of the blowing
up of bridges and tunnels during the
war. Coupling the Seattle strike with
these recitals he urged that the Ma
tional Security League be still sup
ported in its war on the reds.

a parade that stirred the entire com.
munity to its very foundation, de-

Parade Over Mile Long.
The line of march lead thru the
main streets of Passaic in a stretch
of over mile long. 1t was formed by
the uniting of divisions collected at
the several mills and these divisions
coming together near the Botany Mill
from which it passed south over the
tracks and up the hill past the City
Hall, where Mayor MCGUIRE viewed
the vast masses in horror as he real
lied that this was the greatest de-
monstration that has ever taken place
in the city over which he rules.
At the head of the line marched
the leader of the strike, Albert Weis-
bord, followed by band which kept
the paraders in step. Clearing the
way were the chief of police and his
force, some on motorcycles and others
huriedly walking along the line,
while other cops were stationed at
the crossings to keep traffic back and
allow the marchers to proceed.
The first division had in it ex-sol-
diers in uniform with medals pinned
on their breast to which they pointed
with the remark, This Ii ell we got
for fighting and now We are getting
the additional medals OF wage cuts"

HoRNlNG, Pa, Feb. 5.-Hope for
the entombed sixteen miners in the

up since the sealing Of the mine by
the coal operators. A number, Of
miners declares that about the time
the rescue crews had located the en-
tombed miners and in a short time
would have brought them to the sur
face the company had that section
of the mine in which the fire was
raging the men were entombed sealed.
Miners Condemn Company.
When the wall is broken it is ex-
pected the charred bodies Of the
miners may be found. Some of the
rescue crew held out hopes for the
miners declaring that number of
them understood mine fires and would
build wall and protect themselves
from the gases and the fire. but since
that part of the mine was sealed
little hope is held out as the heat and
the lack of water would be enough to
kill them.
Classes are being pumped out of the
mine and rescue crews expect to
break thru the seal tonight as they
believe the fire will have been killed
by then for want of air and the bodies
will then be brought to the surface.

miners dead or alive. They stand
watching the mine with solemn

Just look ahead-waiting- waiting.
Most of those entombed in the mine
have families.
The miners point out that the lives
of these sixteen are a sacrifice to the
greed of the Pittsburgh Terminal

know that a fire was raging in the
mines and did not notify The miners.

DROP PLAs.,
ORGANIZE IN
AUTO WORKERS
A. F. of L. BaIks at
Struggle
BY LAWRENCE TODD,
Federated Press.

WASHINGTON, Feb. g. No spe-
elal effort will be made to organize
the half million workers in the mo-
tor vehicle and accessories industry
this year.
Promises made and plans outlined
at the convention of the metal trades
department of the American Fedora
ton of Labor in Atlantic City, last
fall are scrapped, insofar as the auto
mobile workers are concerned.
This decision was reached at a
meeting of the executive board of the
department, in Washington headquar-
ters, when President 0Connell brot
uh the question Of creating this new
addition to the fundamental trade
union structure of the country.
Abandon UnskilIed.
Executives of metal trades organiza-
tions, constituting the board, were un-
willing to undertake the expense and
danger involved in a big campaign
of organization in the automobile fac
tories in Detroit and elsewhere. They
took the position that any funds which
might be available for organization
purposes should be used to increase
the existing metal trades union mem
bership in plants employing a large
percentage of skilled workers-such
as the General Electric plants at
Schenectady, Pittsfeld and Lynn, and
The American Locomotive Works at
Dunkirk and Richmond. These skill
ed men would naturally belong to the
International craft unions of their
trades, as they had formerly been
union men and would be likely to re-
Spond to an effort to bring them back
to good union standing.
jealousy Guard Jurisdiction.
No formal vote on the abandon
ment of O'Connell's plan for captur-
ing the automobile industry was TAX
en-. Individual statements of views,
however, disclosed the fact that his
proposal that all the crafts cede a
part OF their. jurisdiction to a new in
dustrial union Of the semi-skilled and
unskilled men who are employed in
these plants was not favored. Execu-
tvies thot surrender of jurisdiction
was not practical"
Besides. the Ford and other motor
companies could be expected to spend
great deal of money-so much as to
make the funds of the organizers look
like mere trifle by compassionate
dtscredit the unionization OF their
men. They might succeed in destroy
ing much of the strength of other ele-
ments of the labor movement now
functioning in these motor factory
cities.
