Wright Co. TO Let 81 100000
Concern Build Machines
Under Patents.
$4,000 A YEAR
CHARGE FOR PRIVILEGE
Corporation Now Working on Six
Big Dirigibles-Will License
Other Manufacturers.

Within a short time. II was learned
yesterday. a contract will be signed by
the Wright Company granting the Con-
necticut Aircraft Company. OF New
Haven. the right 70 manufacture aero
planes under the Wright patents. Nego-
tiations have progressed 20 a point where
the settlement Of few minor details IL
oil that remains 10 be done
Under tho proposed agreement the Con-
necticut Aircraft Company will be privi-
legged 10 license other manufacturers. and
the effect OF the deal. therefore, will be
to lift the clouds of doubt which have
hung over the industry since tho final
court decision in favor Of the Wright
Company.
It was stated on indisputabis authority
last night that the policy Of the Con-
necticut concern would be 20 license all
responsible manufacturers who would
abide by tho company's terms.
In return for the license, II In under
stood that tho Connecticut Aircraft Com
pany must pay a minimum Of $500
year in royalties, at the rate OF 1900 for
each machine built. In turn. Il will issue
manufacturers licenses at the same rate.
There Will be no profit in this, but II
will reduce the liability OF $1,000 by what
ever amounts other builders pay. Fees
for exhibition work probably will be
handled on tho same basis as arranged
by the Wright Company.
II is understood that the inventors win
engage to protect their patents and TO
enforce the collection Of back royalties
-, - r,ft
Germ will be restricted In granting licenses
70 those builders who have clean slate
IN the matter Of back royalties has not
been announced definitely.
The Connecticut Aircraft Company was
organized to construct dirigible balloons
and aeroplanes. At its head are num-
Der Of substantial New Haven business
men. and the company is capitalized at
100000, Of which, II is said, $4,000 al
ready has been paid In. Among the prop
critics owned by the company are five
story factory building at New Haven and
the College Park Aviation Field Just out
side OF Washington.
The directors include Colone! Isaac Ull-
man. Everard Thompson Samuel Z.
Morehouse and Ex-Governor Woodruff OF
Connecticut. Captain Thomas s. Baldwin
is chief constructor Already the build
Ing Of six dirig1ble balloons Is under way,
and after the contract with the wright
Company is signed II is expected that the
manufacture OF aeroplanes viii be pushed
with vigor.
The feature OF the transaction between
the two companies which appeals most
TO the aeroplane builders is the fact that
they now have something TO base their
plans upon and will know what 10 expect
The methods pursued by the Connecticut
company will have a farreaching erect
on the future OF aviation in this country
ana the pending transaction Is regarded
as the most important since the begin
ming Of the patent litigation.
