Scope of the Decision.

This instrument. negotiated by the
commissioner. provided that American in
ventors and manufacturers owning Ger
man patents should no longer he re-
CURED to manufacture their products in
Germany, which they previously had been
required to do, and which involved a
large outlay of capital and a duplication
of plants.
THE question whether or not this
treaty would be retroactive and protect
patents granted prior to its promulga-
tion,' added Mr.. Moore, was quite an
important one, but the decision of the
i'nrerial supreme court. as announced
from Leipzig, has settled that point in
aflIriiidtIfr.
During the present year Mr.. Moore
went to Europe at the request of the
State Department and negotiated treaties
similar to that with Germany with Den
mark, Norway, Sweden, Russia, Austria.
Italy, Spain, France and Belgium. He
is hopeful they soon will become opera
tive.
