Reversal of Fees.

The salary increases under Representa-
tive Oldfeld's pan would not burden
the United States Treasury as it is his
idea to reverse the patent fees. so that
the first fee will be $40 and the final fee
So. At present the situation is the other
way. and many inventors or applicants
file their applicat ton with the initial SO,
and then for some reason or another fai.
to deposit the final $50.
The work in the patent office has all
been done, the time and brains of The
force there have been called upon to de-
liver the goods. but the inventor finds
that either he doesn't want the patent or
that some other man has been there
ahead of him. or some other objection
has been found.
Mr.. Oldfie,d says that the twenty-dollar
fee ought to be paid first, and he also
is of the opinion that the inventors are
in favor of this. because they want to
see the patent office force paid better
With 10000 applications year the re-
versal of the fees would mean an added
income of 100000.
