TO AWFUL PATENTS

At a meeting of the Chicago section of the American Chemical Society, held last September, it was decided to ask congress to annul foreign patents pertaining to the manufacture of chemicals in this country. The war, according to speakers, has caused a dearth of chemicals, and it was the sense of the meeting that the United States take advantage of Englands decision to declare all patents open to the world.
