NO CHANGE
In Price Of TiIIinghast
Patent Tires.
Best Grade Will Sell For $4.25 Pair
May Appeal,

In view of the attention which has
been given lately to the question of
the prices of single tube tires for the
coming season, it may be stated that
there has always been more or less
discussion among the Tillinghast Ii.
censees as to the price at which the
tires would best suit the market, and
on the schedule of license fees. Dur
ing September and October of this year
there was a discussion of marked in
terest among the licensees as to the
prices at which certain classes of tires
might be sold. The result of the dis
cussion has been to leave the matter
lust where it was at its inception. The
schedule of prices established last jan
uary. and the royalty fixed to be paid
by licensees, remain as they have been
since the issuance of the new 1900 IL
censes. namely: for guaranteed tires,
$425 pair, and for unguaranteed
tires, $2.75 a pair. The recent discus
sion was earnest as well as long, but at
its termination the fieensor company
and each of its licences have deter
mined to abide strictly by the terms
and conditions of the license, and by
their legal right and (harersoso cadsh
under. Therefore, since the licensor
and each licensee are agreed upon the
strict maintenance of all the condl'
tions of the license, it follows that any
sale of tires at less than schedule prices
will subject the licensee to all the
penalties of breach of license, and the
nurchaser of such tires to a suit forr in
fringement. The Tillinghast Tire pat
ent decision may yet be taken to the
appellate court.
