By u. S. Court Decision

According to a decision re-
Gently handed down by the
United States Court of Appeals,
in Cincinnati, the Firestone Tire
& Rubber Company has won a
sweeping victory, bringing to a
close litigation which has been in
the Courts since 1914. In that
year suit was brought against
the Firestone Tire & Rubber
Company by Mr.. F. A. Seiber-
ling, President of the Goodyear
Tire & Rubber Company, for in
fringement of alleged basic pat
ents. These patents were alleged
to be basic on the manufacture
of Pneumatic Tires by machin-
cry. and therefore the suit af-
fected not only the Firestone
Company, but indirectly all the
manufacturers of Pneumatic
Tires and the Automobile Indus
try in general.
The scale of royalties de-
manded by the p a n 8
amounted to millions of dollars
per year. and would have mate
rally affected the price of tires.

The Firestone Company fought
the case through the Courts I'M
til the present time, when the
United States Court of Appeals
reversed the decision of the Dis
trict Court, with Instructions to
dismiss the bill. 1t declared
there was no Infringement Of the
Goodyear Tire machine patent
and that the Soldering and
Steven, and also the State, pat

This victory of the Ffrestone
Company is much more far
