PATENT RIGHTS

(Wall Street JournaD
1t will be we'll, we think, if some of
these Washington gentlemen who are
blithely talking and planning for a kind
of overall rationing regardless of the
necessity therefore will devote themselves
to close reading of the dispatches which
American correspondents, lately freed
from Axis internment, are writing from
Lisbon these days.
In both Germany and Italy rationing
restrictions have grown tighter and
tighter 1t was not matter of choice.
1t was matter of necessity. The tight
ening is indicative of a deteriorating
economic situation within the Axis coun-
tries and apparently no one is more keen
ly aware of the danger than the Nazi and
Fascist chiefs of those nations.
The tighter rationing has brought in
its train a more detailed control of and
interference with the daily life of the
civilian population Those interferenceS
are regarded as annoyanceS. They are
having their effect on civilian morale
They are feeding the feeling of war
WEAKNESS. Despite dire penalties, the
black markets have sprung up and both
producers and consumers are finding
their way around regulations.
Rationing, of course, is not good
thing. It is an evil, justified only by nee
essity. 1t is something to be avoided as
long as possible 1t is not something
that we should rush out and embrace.
The American people have accepted
rationing of sugar and Of gasoline. They
can see the necessity for that Attempts
to ration where the necessity does not
exist will not be so easily accepted.

WE SHOULD
AVOID RATiONlNG

Nevada State JournaD
An inventors right to the profits of
his ingenuity is properly regarded in
free countries as fundamental right.
The principal countries have gone farther
and agreed that world protection of pat
ents is necessary and desirable. A patent
granted in one Of these countries is pro-
tected from infringement in the other
countries that are SignatorieS to the IN
ternational convention.
The patent question is before the peo-
pie in the United States now in several
important aspects. Are countries which
are at war bound by the international
convention? This question has been an
swered by Germany's seizure of useful
Allied patents, and retaliation by the
countries against which she is warning.
The United States is completely justified
in making use of any German patents
that can be used to assure and hasten
Allied victory.
The United States supreme court has
now held that patent rights do not in
clude the right to dictate the price of
the patented article by licensing manu-
facturers, distributors and retailers only
on condition that they charge a fixed
price. In two cases of similar nature
which were before the court, the decision
was unanimous that this is violation
of the Sherman antitrust act.
Of growing Importance is the question
of how far patent owner can go in US
ing his rights to hold a useful process
or invention from the market. Basically,
this practice puts the people in the posi-
ton of supporting law which works
against their interest The country seems
to be coming to the belief that a patent
right must be applied on reasonable
scale or forfeited.

GOOD INVESTMENT

The purchase OF war bonds may be a
patriotic duty, but it's mighty wise in
veStment for the future, too.
When you pay your income tax you
bid goodbye forever to the money that
goes out. The same thing is true of all
the other taxes you pay, which go direct
ly or indirectly to help win the war. But
when you buy war bonds, it's like putting
the money in the bank-a bank from
which Uncle Sam withdraws it to buy
parts for his war machine.
If nobody in this country bought war
bonds, everybody would soon be paying
three or four times the taxes we are
going to be called upon to pay next year.
Thus the war bonds show an immediate
profit-they keep down the wartime tax
bill, as well as laying aside cash for later
on.
If people didn't buy war bonds, in eff.
feet loaning the money to the govern
ment, that same money would be taken
away from them by taxes, without hope
of recovery.
The government needs the money.
America needs victory.
One way or another, both goals are
going to be achieved.
Each of us can help to achieve both
goals by buying more war bonds. It's the
easiest way to save money these days.
Imperial Valley press., 1942-05-29
THEY ALSO SERVE
WHO STAY AT HOME

The nations war machine is a delicate
instrument. 1t is made up of thirty mil
lion parts, and if any one of them goes
wrong, the whole machine is thrown more
or less out of kilter.
The people who stay at home are inn
portant in this machine. Without them, it
could not operate Without them, there
would be nothing to fight for = there
would be nobody to keep alive the struc-
ture and the way of life for which our
armed services are fighting.
We know many men who wish dcspcr-
ately that they could get into the fight,
with the armed forces. Some of them
cannot because their families are entire
ly dependent upon them. Scme cannot
because, without them, whole businesses
would go to ruin, with resulting economic
dsintegration. There are hundred and
one reasons why many cannot get into
the actual fighting.
The disappointment which is theirs
should not be too severe. They are as
important. sometimes more so, at home
than they would be on the front line.
Without an economic structure behind
them which is basically sound, the fight
ing forces would be so crippled that they
could not go on for long. The men OF
the army and navy must be fed, clothed,
supplied with arms. 1t takes a stagger-
ing amount of money to do this, and mon
ey cannot come out Of a ruined national
economy. There must be businesses and
individuals to pay taxes, to make the
goods the fighting men need, to keep up
the American conception of life so that
the service men may return to 1t when
their fighting job is done.
The run-of-the-mill job on the home
front these days is uneXciting, unglam-
orous, often boring to an extreme. But
it is as necessary tc the prosecution of
the war as is the heroism Of the men in
the planes and ships and tanks all around
the world.
Everybody can't be fighting on the
battleline. If everybody tried it. there'd
soon be nobody fighting there.
If your jobs at home, you can help
win the war by doing it the best way you
know how

Brazil Hunfs Axis Subs

without having formally declared
war.
The reason was the ruthless sink
ing of Brazilian ships. Last jan
uary, Brazil took the lead at the
emergency conference of foreign
ministers in urging Latin Amerl-
can nations to break relations with
the Axis.
Brazil broke relations with Ger
many, Italy and Japan the day
the conference ended and began to
purge Axis agents and spies. The
Germans retaliated by sinking a
Brazilian ship. Since then, at least
eight Brazilian ships, aggregating
more than 10000 tons, have been
sunk
If the Axis took such reprisals
for a diplomatic break, it was eX-
pected that it would try to take a
more terrible revenge for attacks
on its submarines.
