May Lease The TuCkertOn
Wireless Station

Newark, N. j., March l9-.The leg.
al controversy between French and
German companies over the owner
ship of the Tuckerton wireless sta.
ton was revived today, when the
German company was ordered to file
its answer to the suit brought by the
French company. Involved in the con.
troversy is the good faith of an agree
ment entered into by the rival French
and German companies before the
war broke out. Also, il is said. that
after ownership is established in the
courts, the United States Navy De.
partment may take over the Tucker.
ton station on lease
The suit was brought in January by
the Compagnie Universelle de Tele.
graphic ct de Telephone Sans Fills.
against the United States Service
Corporation, a New Jersey corpora.
tion representing German telegraph
company. It's object was to compel
specific performance of an alleged
agreement made on Sept. 30, 1912, by
which the French company purchased
the Goldschmidt patents for wireless
telegraphy and also the radio station
then begun at Tuckerton, with the un-
derstanding that the station be COM
pleted and equipped, the French com
pany to pay all the costs.
Attorney Gray for the French com.
pany says that the patents are paid
for and large part of the cost of the
station has been paid over to the Ger.
man company. The Tuckerton station
was completed last summer. Mr.. Gray
charges that the German company
went back on it's agreement to turn
over the station to the French com.
pany.
Attorney Gray says that the French
company has been negotiating with
the navy department and that Assist
ant Secretary Franklin d. Roosevelt
has declared that the United States
government would not enter into any
lease until the title to the patents and
the station had been passed upon by
the courts.
The case has already been post
poned once, and it is said that anoth-
er postponement may be asked. The
information in regard to the situation
had been sent to Berlin, and the de-
fese of the German company will rest
on advices from the German capital.
