other things concealed in the tops OF

off the top and proceeds to sip the

To SAVE PATENTS
F ROM MONOPOLY
Congressional Committee Rec
ommendS New Laws Aimed
at the Trusts.

WASHINGTON. Aug. S.-Changes in
the existing patent laws to prevent mo-
nopolies in patents are proposed in a
bill introduced in the house today by
Representative Oldfeld, chairman of
the committee on patents.
The bill, which was accompanied by
a report of the committee. proposes
three important changes in existing
laws. which, the report frankly states,
are aimed at the Standard Oil, tobacco
/ and shoe machinery trusts. The three
most important changes are:
Regulation of prices at which pat
spect to cost of production.
Modification of existing provisions
that the owner of a patent may specify
unpatented articles to be used in con-
nection with his patent
Creation of the right to issue com
pulsory licenses" and thereby prevent
the suppression of patents in the In
terest of combination in restraint of
trade.
Changes Only Helpful.
While expressing it's belief that the
remedies urged in the present bill will
tend to prevent the Shelving" of pat
ents and the suppression of inventions
in the interest of great combinations
the committee expresses the belief that
further changes are necessary before
the patent laws will fit the needs of
commerce
The present methods of trying pat
ent cases is found by the committee to
be "wasteful and procrastinating 1t
is now possible, the report asserts, for
the representative of a monopoly to
delay indefinitely the final decision of
his case. AS a remedy, the committee
urges the present rule by which the
plaintiff must show trust to be an
illegal combination to be done away
with should the, combine previously
have been found guilty of operating in
restraint of trade.
The methods of taking examination
in courts of equity is condemned. 1t
is urged the, selection of an examiner
to take evidence with no ordinary rules
as to cross examination is useless.
Delays Should Be Remedied.
The committee concludes with the
opinion that the delay now permitted
in the patent office should be remeded.
The applicant for patent should be
required, within two years to show the
merits of his article.
In addition to specifically denying
the right of fake patents" the bill
contains clause which prevents
corporation from transferring titles of
patents not in use to non residents of
this country and permitting them to
suppress the use of the patents through
the laws Of foreign country. 1t also
provides forfeiture of patents used to
restrain trade.
