In 1903 for $4.OOO.O0O. the Aultman,
Miller & Co. for 500. 900. In the same
year, the Minneapolis Harvester Co.
for 100000 and the Keystone Co. for
100000, Investigator Townsend re.
ported:
The manner OF these purchases and
the use made Of the property show the
purpose Of the International Harvester
Co. Each Of the purchases was made
secretly, in the name Of some OF its
directors or stockholders, who held the
stock In trust for It. The Osborne and
Keystone companies were both oper.
ated for some time ostensibly as In.
dependent and competing plants; the
International Harvester Co. concealed
its ownership. Why? Was It not
because they were conscious that its
disclosure would give added testimony
of their trust character and trust
methods?
Bear In mind that In all of these
instances, all patent rights were ac-
quired and are still retained by the
International Harvester Co."
