THE question of an international copy
right law is now under discussion in Con-
gress, and the proposition is not meeting
with much vigorous opposition. The
chief opposers of what is known as the
Dorsheimer bill are publishers, who in
sist that book which is admitted to
copyright shall be required to be manu-
factured in the country in which the
copyright is issned. This Is manifestly
unfair to authors. as it does not recog-
nize the fact that the authors part in a
book is separable from the manufactured
volume. The bill should pass, If at all.
without such an Objectionable feature.
