lundis Views Federal
Incorporation Lows
BY the Associated Pres,

BY the Associated Prsss.
BOSTON. Dec. l0.-Citing q grow
ing outcry against our loose and
divergent corporation laws" James
M. Lands, dean of the Harvard Law
School, tonight told 4 meeting of
bankers that Federal incorporation
for interstate businesses was "on the
agenda" for action.
The former chairman Of the Sc
curities and Exchange Commission
in prepared address at the annual
convention of the New England
League Of Federal Savings Institu-
tions. spoke on The Protection of
the investor
The protection of the investment
process, he said. would not be
achieved by "outcries against gov
ernmental regulation or heated con-
demnation of the entry of Govern
ment into business" Or by the
"pillorying Of management for past
mistakes-mistakes that from our
pedestal of hindsight seem more
than stupid.
1T is the ability of investment
to play its appropriate role that
alone will afford 1t protection-true,
= role Of honest and imaginative
adventure. but also one Of obliga-
ton for the attainment of values
that the community itself prices
and for which the community will
pay an earned price,"

industry, which many Of its members

industry, which many Of its members
apparently approved.
The committee Is scheduled to
undertake tomorrow q study Of the
use Of patents in the glass container
industry. Members disclaim any
preconceived opinions as to what the
inquiry will disclose. but some of
the economists who have been study
ing the subject say information will
be developed along the following
lines: .,:
That the manufacture of glass
containers can be carried on only
with the use Of three or four essen
tial devices.
That patents on these devices are
controlled by q few companies.
Say Competition Prevented.
That these companies have made
use Of the patents to prevent compe-
tition; that 10, to prevent potential
going into business.
Such use of patents is legal and
in keeping with the traditional
American view that a patent owner
has exclusive rights to the process
or device he controls and does not
have to make 1t available to any
other person unless he wishes.
But the committee is avowedly not
interested 80 much in the question
Of legality as in that of public in
terest. This was emphasized re-
peatedly during the investigation of
automobile patents last week.
1t was brought out that motor
car manufacturers have not insisted
on their rights to exclusive use of
their patents, but have shared vir-
tually all their inventions among
all members Of the industry.
Policy Held Commendable.
Questions and statements Of COM
mittee members indicated they
thought this commendable pro-
cedure. Similarly, they expressed
doubt that the public interest would
have been served as 1t was by the
rapid growth Of the industry had
individual manufacturers been pre-
vented from developing because they
could not use mechanical devices
owned by others.
All indications are that this same
attitude vii be displayed toward the
glass industry, and, while the COM
mittee's courtesy toward individual
manufacturers seems likely to be
maintained, some OF the industrys
practices may be subjects Of criti-
cism.
