Berlin, April 2J.-"ViUou four teen points" was the proposed trade mark under which an applicant the other day sought to regUtcr an art! ele of incrchandiic with the iuiperia patent oince. i ne application was denied on the ground that such a parody of former President Wilson's peace program was 'politically ob jcctionable."

Heroic Measure Are v Taken Against Burglar. The extraordinary increase in the number of daring warehouse bur glaries recently has led to the adop tion of ingenious counter tncaiures. Whole business blocks in Berlin, by joint arrangement, have placed all their tenants in the care of special squads of night watchmen, with an elaborate system of army signals keeping the watchmen in continuous communication with each other. It is claimed that these new methods - insure complete immunity for burglary. Nobody can leave his premises 1 unexpectedly or surrepti tiously, whether over the roof or through the wall, so complete are the signaling devices. Last year there were 5 J ,000 burglaries in Berlin, as compared with 600 20 years ago. The city' 5,000 treets are divided into 90 precincts and each is pa troled every night bv four squads of patrolmen, but, owing to the great distance to be covered, no building has been under continuous control. The cost of the new safety service is relatively high, but it is consid ered the risk warrants the outlay, which is shared i)y all of the firms occupying the same block.
