Perhaps you hadn't noticed because
il was buried deep in a long and technical
judicial opinion and order, but a federal
judge has just decided that what Is yours
belongs TO everybody else.
That, of course, is the one fact Of
Communism which is pretty generally
understood. But this judge isn't Com
munist, and his decision isn't Communis-
tic, and our guess is that the Communists
haven't even heard about it yet. So let's
forget that bugaboo and stick TO the issue.
District Judge Frank L. Kloeb of the
northern district of Ohio, western division,
found the Hartford-Empire Co. and a
number of affiliated glassware manufac-
turers guilty of creating and maintains
ing a deliberate and vicious monopoly
through the control of virtually every
useful patent in the industry.
Naturally, then, the judge attempted
TO break up the monopoly and open up
the glassware manufacturing field 10 COM
petition, which is the American way.
One of the measures which Judge
kloeb ordered for this purpose, in his
own language:
All the defendants shall be required
to license anyone. royalty free. in the
manufacture of machines embodying these
patent rights The patents we're more
specifically described earlier in the same
paragraph as 'all of the patents and appli-
cations for patents owned or controlled
by all the defendants herein and involved
in this suit"
We hold no brief for Hartford Empire.
From our standpoint that company's sig
nificance is merely that of a guinea pig
upon which court is trying an expert
ment that to US seems very un-American.
Why?
For this reason. The Hartford Empire
Co. and its associate defendants. by the
evidence in the case. have developed or
bought patents which enable the manu-
facture of better glassware more cheaply.
They have cost them money. They spend
money improving their methods.
Now the court says they must give.
freely TO anybody the valuable property
rights they have acquired at much cost
Any ambitious man or group who has
never invested single dollar in research
can walk into Hartford Empires office,
under this court order, and say, Gimme,
free, for nothing"
Says the Bill of Rights. Article VI:
No person shall be deprived of property
without due process of law"
Judge Kloeb anticipates, in his opinion,
that the supreme court will pass upon his
handiwork. 1t should. for the sake of the
American system of free enterprise.

FULL ALLEGIANCE
DUE UNCLE SAM

Editor. The Times: Referring TO
Carl II. Lees letter in your issue
OF Oct. 6th. my information was
based on an opinion written by
Judge Fuller of the United States
Supreme Court, who said: The
fourteenth amendment does not
arbitrarily make citizens Of chill
dren born in the U. S. Of parents.
who according TO the Will Of their
native government and Of this
government are. and must remain
aliens"
II has been said repeatedly that
the 14th amendment recites -all
persons born in the United States
are u. S. citizens" but the truth
is the 14th amendment declares.
and very properly. That all per-
sons born or naturalized in the
United States AND SUBJECT TO
THE JURISDICTION THEREOF
are citizens" In other words. the
amendment does not confer pro-
miscuonsly upon all children born
here. or other persons. the dignity
Of American citizenship. This con-
dition or reservation. as pointed
out by Judge Fuller, has been COM
monty ignored or misunderstood.
The trainers OF the amendment
undoubtedly had in mind that there
must be something more than the
mere accident Of birth or entry
into America 10 justify the claim
OF citizenship. Questions Of extrae-
ton. intent. allegiance. etc. must
govern equally in both cases. Sit
in the federal court for = single
day when applications for final
papers are being considered and
you win be astonished at the care

my letters up in Alaska: He has

There is no answer for delay in
movement of mail at a time when
all transportation facilities are
crowded to the limit with war ma

them all at once, and wish you bet
