sands Of independent investors have
interests also at stake
Manifestly the objective Of the
study is possible amendment Of the
patent laws, and it is recognized that
with injudicious or needless effort,
grave injury could be done to thou
sands Of owners Of patents who have
not the remotest association with mo-
nopolistic set-ups.
Laws May Be Amended
Evidence is that the great majority
Of abuses in patents come strictly
within existing laws and are not Of
themselves a violation Of the laws.
For this reason it is believed that pos
sibly the patent laws should have a
thorough overhauling.
1t is further pointed out that most
Of the patents that are being issued
today are not basic, but come within
the area Of improved gadgets that
permit legal extension of control by
owning interests upon expiration of
original patent deeds.
On the suppression side, there is
indication that some companies have
engaged ia the practice Of buying up
improvements and shelving them
rather than mourning the cost Of
changing machinery already in use
in order to manufacture the improved
product. In this manner, the improve
ments are kept out Of the hands Of
competitors, and in trade parlance,
are consigned to company grave
yards"
Lawsuits Under Scrutiny
The committee also may study
merits of suits and threatened suits
for patent violations for evidence of
intent on the part Of large entrenched
groups to tie up patents by litigation
and thus combat competition by new
comers in an industry.
Early antitrust cases involving pat
ents may be combed over for light on
the problem.
One Of the early antitrust cases in
yolved company that so years ago
bought up more than SO patents for
spring tooth halrows and was en-
abled thereby to control the output
and price of harrows.
Another frequently cited is the So
called ''bathtub case" of 30 years ago,
in which an association, by patenting
an enamel spraying process, was able
to control prices in the whole bath
fixture industry.
One company that had a patent on
mimeograph machine was able to
dictate the type of stencils and other
supplies to be used with the machine,

sUnder previous decisions, State SAL
saries had been considered exempt from
Federal income taxes, and vice versa.

Solicitor General Henry Epstein of
New York said that in his opinion the
decision certainly had opened the pos
ssibility that some State and municipal
3employes might be liable for taxes,
