The force of patent examiners in the
patent Office is composed of technically
educated men. As soon as they become
versed in patent office practice, their
services are at once in great demand
by the large manufacturing concerns,
and also 10y the patent attorneys in the
country. These outside firms and cor
porations are willing to pay much bet
ter salaries than the government gives
themi in their present situations The
result is that each year there is large
number Of designations. Last year
over iifty skilled examiners resigned
from the service, to enter into the en-
ploy of private concerns, at large in
crease of salary The government
finds it almost impossible to keep these
places filed, and the result is, that the
patent Office has been put to great in
