Household Control 0f Cockroac-h Pest

Heated houses, Dlirticulnriy poorly constructed buildings in wmch loose-fitting woodwork and cracks and crevices abound. are liable to infestation by cockroaches and other household insects all the year round. Cockroaches are frequently abundant in apartment houses. hotels. stores, dwelling houses, and 1n short. in any building where there are warm, moist conditions and espec ally where thorough house-cleaning methods are not ad- opted in every section of the estab- lishment. The insects remain hid- den during the day in cracks in the walls and floors, and emerge at night _to prowl about in search oi food. Cockroaches will eat anything eatabe, but are particularly fondi of foodstuffs favoured by man. On this account they are most numerous around kitchens and pantries where food is readly accessible. The most prevalent species in Canada is the German cockroach.

Cockroaches may be readily con- trolled by meains of sodium fluoride which may be obtained from any drugstore. The fluoride should bo dusted in places frequented by the roaches. such as sinks" baseboards, cupboards and hot water pipes. The material adheres to the legs and antennae oi the insects, and in cleaning themselves they are pols- oned by it. Sod'um fluoride retains its effectiveness and may be left un- disturbed P! long as convenient or iint'i the roaches have disappeared. but precautions must be taken to prevent children and domestic pets gaining access to the material be- cause it is somewhat poisonous. Two other materials which form the basis of many propr'etory powders which are often recommended are pyrethrum and borax,

A special article on how to com- bat cockroaches may be obtained on request to the Publicity and Exten- sion Branch, Dominion Department of Agriculture, Ottawa.

Patent

(By The Associated Press)

NEW YORK, Jan. 18-—Sp0kes- men for the Gaumont British Picture Corporation. whose subsid- iary, British Aooustic Films Ltd. has begun patent infringement litigation against two leading mak- ers and distributors of American sound fllm mechanism, today said the outcome might affect virtually every motion picture theatre in North America.

The American defendants named in the action flied yesterday in federal district court at Wilming- ton, Del., were the RCA Manufac- turing Company, a subsidiary of the Radio Corporation of America. and the Electrical Research Pro- ducts 1hc.. wholly controlled affil- iate of the Western Electric C0m-_ P8111’-

Whiie no statement oi damages accompanied the yesterday's pleii for an injunction, local spokesmen for the British interests said be- tween $i0,000,000 and $20,000,000

might be involved.

The complaints, they said, were based on two patents. The first, a "device for feeding acoustic film at constant speed," was imued by the United States patent oflice to Arnold Pouisen and Alex Carlgeorg Petersen in 1926.

A second patent was issued in i915 to Poulsen alone and both. Gaumont spokesmen alleged. sub- sequently were assigned to the Bri- tish acoustic films. Despite this they said, the two American firms used the patented features on their mechanism.

Attorneys for both the RCA Manufacturing Company and the Electrical Research Products Com- pany expressed surprise at the action and declared it would be necessary for them to study the complaints before discussing them

Gaumont spokesmen declared large scale installation of the con- tested equipment now was in pro- gress in this country.

undertook to take over three out- standing current hits-Victims. Regina. French Without Tears, and George and Margaret, at the end of their natural runs in the West-limo. l-lis plan was to trans- fer them to larger theatres, main- tain all artists at prevailiihgsal- aries and pay over half the profits to the original management . He threw in a guarantee of £1,000 ($5,000) with each offer.

“Nothing doing!" retorted the opposing group of managers. ‘They charged the under-cutters were clieapening the show business, re-

ducing actors‘ salaries and dis- missing members oi the original casts when receipts began failing. Some of the theatres countered the movement with placards say- ing: "This show ‘can't be seen anywhere else at cut-rates."

W. J. O’Bryen, one of the man- agers, declared the system pm- posal falsely encouraged theatre- goers to wait iuitil a play could be seen at cheap rates. "In the second place." he added, “it antagonizes . people who pay the full price, only to find they have paid twice as much as those in the adjoining seats."

Gilbert Miller, another noted producer, turned thumbs down on Jennings’ plan. "I'm afraid the profit-sharing part of the offer would be an empty one." Cost of play production, he said, had scar- ed through the years, wliiie prices oi‘ tickets remained constant some miinngcrs estimated a 200- prr-ccnt higher out‘ay to get a production oii the boards today t-liiim it did 10 years ago.

Mr. Miller pointed out that "Sil- ent Knight." his play iii rhymcd verse hnd failed to attract custo- mers to 5i. Jamcsis Thelitrc a1- though it liiid cost him nearly £400 ($9.000) a week more to stage than "The Last of Mrs. Chcvney." with Gladys Cooper and Gerald du Maurier in the cast. "i-lcw can I cut prices?" Miller ankcd.

Flora Robson, appearing in the current success "Autumn." at the St. Martin's. has played under the t-wo-for-one system but she'll never do it again. Con- ditions were for below the stand- ard expected. But Jennings says lie i\n‘t worrying about boycotts. "I am primarily interested in helping the theatre business and ii necessary will take the risk of original productions. which I'm accused of not daring to face.
