The speaker also urged passage of
a pending bill which would require
an applicant for a patent to COM
plete its prosecution within three
years from the date of filing or suf-
fer a curtailment of its terms to less
than II years. The object is to pre-
vent deliberate delays in application

ton, If an applicant let his applica-

Industrial Evolution
In j. ). Credited BY
Coe 10 Patent System
Association Hears
Commissioner Advocate
Passage Of Two Bills

The American patent system has
not merely inspired invention, it
has initiated process of industrial
evolution, Commissioner of Patents
Conway P. Coe last night told men,
bers and guests of the American
Patent Law Association at its an
nual winter dinner in the May
flower Hotel.
Commissioner Goes address, given
at the first of series of celebrations
to commemorate the 150th ami
versary of the signing of the first
Patent Act by President Washing
ton on April 10, 1890, was heard by
a distinguished group of Senators
and Representatives, judges, Gov
eminent officials and several hun
dred patent lawyers.
He pointed out the social and
economic benefits and protection for
democracy given American people
by the patent system. Many adj
vantages, he added, were gained
through improvements to the sys-
tenn.
mot only the people of this coun-
try but also the inhabitants of
other lands are benefciaries of the
American patent system. There is
not one of these who is not in
debted to America for the thousand
and one articles and instrumental
tiles that meet their daily needs
and supply their comforts" Com
missioner Coe said.
Evident in Many Fields.
when they work and when they
play, whether they study or travel,
in their commerce or communica-
tons, America aids them. From
the first and simplest products of
inventive genius there have been
developed more complex and eff
Gent mechanisms and methods"
He added that "every successive
improvement and advancement has
made still further progress impera-
tive and inevitable. The manufac-
ture and application of certain of
our modern inventions are led to
the establishment of one or more
collateral industries. An impressive
illustration of this fact is to be found
in the gasoline motor. Its inven-
tion," he said, "as the sequel shows,
was preliminary if not prerequisite,
to the development of the automobile
and quite indispensable to the crea-
ton of the airplane."
Commissioner Coe also urged con-
gressional approval of legislation,
now pending, designed to establish a
single court of patent appeals having
power to decide questions of owner
ship, validity and infringement of
patents arising in the various States
and Territories.
Marvellous though our material
advancement has been in the last
100 years, it is felt, 1 feel, but a
prelude to still greater progress.

ventions that have served the causes

Area for Tuna Derby
Is Enlarged After
Poor First Day
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
BELMAR. N. j.. Aug. 20-Anglers
in the third annual United States
Atlantic Tuna Derby travelled over
an enlarged area of ocean of here
today in an attempt to catch more
fish and make a real competition of
the affair which so far has suffered
from an almost dearth of tuna.
AS competition opened yesterday
the fishermen were handicapped by
a heavy ground swell and the tail
end of a storm on the Mud Hole.
As result only two fish we're caught
and one of them was under the IS
pound limit permitted in the contest.
Capt Tex Rickard of the Sleeps
head Bay Tuna Club was the for
tunate angler with 1914 pound
bluefln. That gave his club three
point lead for having landed the
heaviest individual fish, the heaviest
total weight and the most fish.
As a result of the slim haul, tour
nament judges last night decided to
enlarge the fishing area for the re-
naming two days of the contest.

Little Women Gust An1uzons
As Swimming Champions
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SEATTLE. Aug. 20.-One of Amer
ica's foremost swimming coaches
today and said he guessed the cham
pionship era of the Amazons had
passed.
The wee gals, said Coach Ray
Daughters. whose pupils have won
their weights in championship
trophies. have pulled to the front
with technique and timing.
1t was a sad observation for
Daughters to make after watching
trim, 15-year-old Mary Ryan of
Louisville, KY, outclass the field in
the national A. A. U. women's cham
pionships at Portland, Oreg.
Daughters has been a developer of
the power swimmers. There were
no petite lines about the famed
Helene Madison, powerful 150-
FOUNDER whom Daughters tutored to
16 world championships. Nor Olive
Mexican, the tall 140-pound flash
who won two national champion
ships. And his Washington Athletic
Club championship relay quartet
had pounds to spare
There's new type of swimming" !"
Daughters commented. Power has
taken second place. The big. strong
girls like Helene have been sup
planted by girls like this little Ryan
miss. Technique. stamina and per-
feet rhythm, timing and judging OF
pace have made the Louisville lady
the greatest swimmer of the decade.
Nearly all of the successful COM
petitors now are small Of stature"

NEW YORK, Aug. 20.-It's hard
to believe. but golfers appear to be
trifle more cautious than they
were a few years back. At least
there aren't so many of them willing
to spend IS on the slim chance
that they'll qualify for the National
Amateur championship, which will
be played at the Winged Foot Club,
Mamaroneck, N. Y, September 9-l4.
The entry list for the amateur
shows the same downward trend
that was seen in the open cham
pionship. The official figures an
nounced today by the United States
Golf Association show that just 756
entries were accepted. That's the
lowest total. with one exception. of
any year since 1888. When the
amateur was played at Portland,
Greg, in 1887, there were only 619
entries.
Salt Lake Test Dropped.
AS result one of the locations
where sectional qualifying rounds
were scheduled week from today
Salt Lake City-was dropped, leav-
ing % sites where 746 golfers will
shoot their 36 holes each. Only 140
places in the big tournament are
open to these hopefuls, as the field
in the tournament proper is limited
to $50. Ten former champions are
exempted from the sectional quail
flying.
That makes the odds about to
that any player who makes the
attempt next week won't qualify
and the boys apparently don't like
such odds unless they figure they
have the game to beat them.
The reduction of the field to $50
from last years ITO and the even
higher totals of previous years was
made in order to permit all the
starters to play the two qualifying
rounds of the main tournament at
Winged Foot. For the past three
years it has been necessary to re-
duce the field after the first round
so that the second could be COM
pleted and the necessary playoffs
finished on time to start match play
on the third day of the tourney.
Qualifying Schedule.
The number of places allotted
next Tuesday were based. as usual,
on the size and strength of the
fields. The entry totals ard quail
flying places for each section follow:
