Senate Still Up
 Against Boulder Dam

Washington. Dec. 10 N9-The be- ginning Of the second week of con- gress found the house drawing away from the senate as far as tangible accomplishments were con- cerned, the senate having an old problem, Boulder Dam. yet to solve. while the house. with the first of the nine appropriation bills. behind 1t. was free to take up the Austrian and Greek war debt settlement.
 Weekend developments made 1t seem that the row between Arizona and California over the distribution of water from ths proposed dam has its solution in prospect. This ques- tion was gone over at conferences as also was whether Boulder Dam is to be built by the government or by private enterprise.
 Arizona has been fearful that If the government builds the bar rier, the state would not be able to levy taxes on 1t. While no definite compromise on these two major questions was announced, 1t was known that there is hope a final ad- justment is not far away.

L.F.&C. WINS RIGHT
 TO USE R070-VERS0'
Patent Office Approves Trade Mark for Wash.
 ing. Machines
By GE0RGE H MANN1NC


 (Washington Correspondent. N. B. Herald) Washington, D. C.. Dec. 10-Lan. ders. Frary & Clark of New Britain Conn.,, can go ahead using ''Roto. Verso" as a trade mark for laundry washing machines in spite of the complaints of the Apex Electrical Mfg. Co. of Cleveland, Ohio. which uses "Rotarex" on a washing ma. chine of its own.
 "Roto-Verso" and "Rotarex" are different enough 50 that the public is not likely to make any mistake about the two machines, in the opili- ion of First Assistant Patent Com missioner Kinnan. The fact that the CAv4land conccrn had first used 'Rotarex" does not. so Kinnan holds. affects the right of the New Britain company to use "Roto-Verso."
 The prefixes "Roto' and 'Rotar" are decriptive and the marks are not otherwise similar. according to de- cision just handed down by kinnan in the matter of the complaint of the Cleveland company against the New Britain corporation.
 There seems to be no other con. clusion possible" says Kinnan than that these prefixes 'Rotar' and 'Roto' are 90 descriptive of the goods aS to be public property, in. capable of exclusive appropriation by anyone and incapable of indi' eating origin or ownership of sucf goods There is no similarity betweer the two suffixes of the marks. Thai of the applicant suggests that there Is a reverse movement of the TO- , tary portion of the machine. The purchasing public. it is deemed clear. would not attach any such sig nificance to this suffix 'ex.' It is be- lieved correct to hold that there l: no similarity of meaning and O. course there is no similarity 1T sound or spelling in the two suffixe' of the two marks"
 After noting the fact that man, registered marks include the preti' "Rota," "Rotar" or ''Rota" as sug gesting rotation of some part of the machine. he said:
 "They tend to support the con clusion that the average purchaser would give this descriptive sig nificance to the prefiixes of both O these marks. It is believed the hold ing in the various cases relied upo1 by the examiner of interference ant by the applicant. warrant the con clusion that the opposition should i be dismissed"

Sheridan, Mich, Dec. 10 R-Miss t1ossie Carter, pretty Sheridan school teacher. was found yesterday beaten to death in her small coupe parked on little travelled road. She had been criminally attacked, there were marks on her throat and face, and her clothing had been torn nearly away. The 27-year-old teachers head had been crushed. apparently with an axe.
 Beside the body. which was found by Ray Collier, 14 year old hiker. there was note. It read: T did this myself. Please don't blame anyone else-Miss Carter"
 The handwriting resembled that of Miss Carter but friends declared it was not hers. The note was written on an envelope addressed by her. State police and sheriff's officers were convinced the note was a crude attempt by the slayer to forestall an investigation.
 Lee Bracy. 19-year-old Olivet college student. had an enga cement to meet Miss Carter Friday night the night she was last seen alive. Bracy. who was taken into custo ody last night. was unable to aid off cers in their investigation. He satis- fled them that he was at the col lege at the hour Miss Carter left Sheridan to drive to her home, four miles away.
 Bracy said that when he finally reached Sheridan Tuesday night. Miss Carter had been gone two hours. Bracy was being held. how ever. for questioning at the inquest today. Young Collier also was to he questioned again concerning his discovery of the woman's body.
 The interior of the coupe showed signs of a struggle. It appeared from the position of the body that Miss Carter was struck down by someone sitting in the drivers seat. a circumstance leading 10 the the- ory that it may have been an ac- huaintance she had picked up and who was permitted to drivs the CT.
