Miss Buechele
One of Four
Experts
Only 3Other Women
In L. S. Examine
Trade.Marks.

\ ISIS EMMA BEUCHELE, for
III the past eight years publicity
w chairman for the Soroptimist
Club, has the distinction OF
being one of the only four women in
the United States who examine trade
marks. She is assistant examiner of
trademarks in the United States
Patent ONCE.
This office last year examined ap-
proximately $4,000 trademark appli-
cations. Getting a trade mark reg
lstered in the United States Patent
Office is not just a matter of writing
in and asking for it. Miss Buechele
says. After an application is received,
careful search is made to find out
whether it duplicates some name or
device used by another firm or in
dividual
A trademark must meet certain
requirements before it can be accepted.
After it has been passed upon by the
examiners office it is published in
the Ohicial Gazette Of the Patent
ONCE and is subject to objection for
80 days. If no valid objections are
f1led the trademark is issued and
the owner is given certificate of reg
istration. Trademarks are registered
according to two statutes enacted by
the Congress of the United States, the
act Of February 20, 1905, and that of
March 10, 1920.
Miss Buechele says trade marks are
among the oldest things in the world.
They have been found on articles of
antiquity and have been used as
symbols OF authenticity, by artisans
and manufacturers in all parts of the
world.
Miss Buechele was born in Iowa and
came to Washington to work in the
Patent Once as stenographer.
Studying at George Washington Uni
versity at night and obtaining degree,
she made it possible for herself to
achieve the position she now holds.
She Is a member Of the Columbian
Women Of George Washington Uni
versity.
Although she likes tennis, swimming.
baseball and other out-of door sports,
her real hobby is the Soroptimist Club.
She has been member of the Wash
ington Club since its foundation and
has held the office of corresponding
and record secretary. and is now a
member Of the executive board.
Her publicity scrap books have won
distinction in the biennial and inter-
national conventions of the organiza-
ton for several years. In the recent
convention at Atlantic City, she won
second place in a competition among
publicity chairmen for local Soropt-
imists Clubs all over the United States.

Middle.Aged Woman
OF Limited Means
To Be Discussed.

THE plight of the middle-aged
woman of limited means will be
discussed at the next meeting of the
Executive Board OF the Woman's
Christian Association.
Providing a home for older working
women has long been one of the OBJ
jectives of the association" Mrs. w.
w. Scott, president of the board, said
yesterday. Il believe the situation
in Washington today is as acute as
it was when the Woman's Christian
Association was formed in 1869. There
are thousands OF older women who
would appreciate the homelike sur
roundings offered by the association
There is a place for the younger
women at the Y. W. c. A. and there
are old ladies homes, but there is
little provision for the middle-aged
woman of limited means.
The board would like to expand
the facilities Of the home to take
care Of a larger number of these wom-
en- than is possible at present. I in
tend to bring the matter up at the
first board meeting. and I hope that
some plan to increase the usefulness
OF the association will be adopted"

tif1c minds, in the opinion of DR.. Ida
A. Bengston OF the National Institute
of Health who is trying to find a
method by which Rocky Mountain
spotted fever vaccine may be produced
on a commercial scale.
Scientific work is like q puzzle. /"
she said. There is constant chal-
lenge in it. The scientist gains his
satisfaction from the success of his
experiments or when he makes a bril-
liant discovery. But discoveries are
infrequent, and often chance has q
large part in them. In general, scien-
tiflc work is dull plodding and there
Is nothing romantic about it. Besides,
scientists are not eregarious. They live
and work alone. I think these are
some of the reasons why science has
more Of an appeal for the masculine
than the feminine mind"
Although DR.. Bengston is a MEM
Der Of several scientific societies, she
limits her club activities TO member

University Women.

She was enc of the first women to
be employed by the National Health
Institute. having been there since
1916. Guinea pigs and test tubes
are her principal tools at this time.
She is working on the rickettsia OF
Rocky Mountain spotted fever. which
to be Of value in vaccine must be
alive at the time they are used. They
can be kept alive only on living tissue

to cultivate the rickettsia in sufficient
amount for commercial use.

NAVY FOR CHINESE
THWARTEDB BY US.
State Department Reveals
1922 Opposition to
Building Plans.
BY tire Associated Press.

BY TIE Associated Press.
The State Department disclosed to.
day through the publication of foreign
relations volumes for 1922 that the
United States had squelched an at
tempt by China 16 years ago to build
a modern navy.
The hitherto secret document dis
closed that the United States learned
of China's intentions and not only
opposed them, but also induced Japan
Great Britain. France and Italy to
oppose them. 1t also brought pressure
on the Bethlehem Shipbuilding Co.
not to fulfill shipbuilding contrac ct
with China
No Central Government Cited.
The reason given by American diplo-
mats was that "in China there is at
the present time no central govern
ment of sufficient strength and sta
bllity really to rule the whole of the
country. and that some of the influ-
entail local authorities, maintaining
armies for their own ends, are in
dulglng in strife. these contending in
fiuences being subject to incessant
vicissitudes."
Also, the Washington Disarmament
Conference had successfully completed
its labors and the American Govern
ment did not want to see "any stems
which the Chinese government might
take to nullify the work and influence
(of the conference"
Hughes Expressed Concern.
Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes.
who was then Secretary OF State, wrote
that statement in a dispatch to Min
lister Schurman in China. Mr.. Hughes
added:
department is greatly concerned
to note evident desire on the part of
some OF the officials of the Chinese
government to proceed on a compare
lively large naval building program"
The State Department also published
old records showing that in 1917 the
United States and Japan reached a
secret understanding binding each
other not Ito take advantage of the
present conditions to seek special
rights or privileges in China which
would abridge the rights of the sub
Jects or citizens of other friendly
states"
Ihe understanding was a secret
protocol of the so-called lansing
1shii agreement concluded between
the Secretaries Of State of the United
states and Japan. The agreement
later was cancelled after a part of It
was incorporated in another accord
relating to China.
