L X D. C, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1921. & THE EVENING STAR. ‘With Sunday Morning Edition. WASHINGTON, D. C. FRIDAY......December 2, 1931 market. Many holders sold thelr “libertys” In this saturated market to buy higher-paying bonds, not having behind them the security of the gov- ernment bond, but having ample or speculatively good security back of them. Many liberty and victory hold- ers sold in this bad market because they had overextended themselves in their subscription commitments or needed money because of otber rea- sons. A great many men and women sold because they were tired and dis. couraged. The market value continued to decline, their $100 bond was low in the 80s, and a 4 per cent yield seemed trifling compared with the price of rent, beefsteak, shoes, hats and overcoats. Those who bought the bonds thrown on the market have done pretty well in a business way, and those who have hung on to their bonds now see the market value climbing close to the ! first purchase price. The regret is that every man, woman and child who bought bonds for the first time dur- Iing the great war did not have the means or the courage to hold on.

The Philippines and the Conference. Any uneasiness felt in the Philip- pines respecting the interests of the archipelago involved in the armament conference would appear to be. un- Iwnrrunled. ‘This government is guard- ing them along with all other Amer- ican interests, They should not ex- pect, because they do not deserve or require, any special guardianship. America's case before the confer- |ence is being handled as a whole. The country’s prestige as a nation is the leading consideration with the Amer- ican delegates. If that is preserved and advanced, all interests harboring under the Stars and Stripes are served, those at a distance from the main- land no less than those existing on the mainland. ‘The Philippine archipelago is Amer- ican territory, and as such entitled to the watchfulness bestowed at this con- ference on every foot of American soil. It will not be neglected or for- gotten. Tt could not be without injury to the general American interests in the far east. As for information about the archi- pelago and its relation to questions of the Pacific ocean and the far east, that can be obtained from Filipino souross e well as from American soWeAs in the Philippines, and pre- iemably will be sought from both. The Pilipinos may be very certain that no action will be taken by the conference at all prejudicial to their welfare either while they remain un- der American protection, or later when they have qualified for inde- pendence and obtained it.

INISTER SAO-KE ALFRED SZE, the leader of the Chi- nese delegation to the pres- ent conference in Washing- ton dealing with far eastern ques- tions, although he has been minister to the United States only since last February, has made many friends in the Natlonal Capital because of his charming personality, his eloquence and pleasing conversational ability and his excellent command of the his former English language. Among fhose who sing his praises most, however, is a group who remember him as a boy- hood friand, for Minister Sze received his high school education at Central High School, and there are many of choolmates in Washing- ton who remember him as a good fel- low and a cheery companion.

And yet there are occasional ogt- breaks against him. Every now and then some general or colonel springs into his saddle, draws his sword, and rides away at the head of a few hun- dred men and begins operations against the government.

It is proposed that the joint print- ing committee hold a hearing on this subject, and possibly, instead of author- izing the resumption of the lately sus- pended periodicals by reclassification or recommending a change of law to permit their renewal, the committee may find that most of the remaining government periodical prints can be just as well discontinued without any real loss to the people, but, in fact, with a saving of millions. the policy of “starving” the patent office, and to appropriate sufficient funds to insure the maintenance of an adequate and competent corps of examiners. Nor is a means to this end lacking. It is proposed to increase both the force itself and the salaries thereof at the expense of the appli- cants for patents. And on the as- sumption that any rational Inventor would prefer to pay a few extra dol- lars for his patent rather than wait indefinitely for its issuance with no assurance that when lssued error will not subsequently be established in the examination, the proposal would seem to be a judicious one.
