Ending % Controversy

the Hartford Empire glass suit was
one of several that have been filed.
In this case, the decision of the
lower courts called for compulsory
licensing" of the patents involved
a requirement which would have
injured established business invest
ments and interests.
In reversing the decision, the
Supreme Court did so on the grounds,
simply stated, that
"A patent is PROPERTY, pro-
fected against appropriation by
INDIVIDUALS or by GOVERN.
MENT."
In other words, the government
has no more right to infringe upon
patent than person has.
THE commentary of the National
i Association of Manufacturers
says:
"This is a heartening reafirna-
ton of one of the basic principles of
our patent system which, until re-
Gently at least, seemed to be un-
questioned by the department of
Justice.
Congress has repeatedly de-
cided after careful study that the
progress of science and useful arts
is best promoted by giving the in
Uentor property right in his inUen-
tion, and the Supreme Court notO
has refused again to depart from
that principle.
"If that principle Uere clearly
recognized, MUCH OF THE CON-
TROVERSY OVER PATENTS
WOULD DISAPPEAR"
Which is another way of saying
that, in view of the Constitution, of
the laws and of the vast public bene-
fits that have flowed from the Amer.
lean patent system, THE "CON-
TROVERSY" OUGHT NEVER TO
HAVE OCCURRED.

THE National Association of Manu-
l. faeturers finds great encourage
ment for free enterprise in decision
of the U. S. Supreme Court regard
ing patents.
The decision was made in the
Hartford Empire glass case, an anti
trust suit brought by the department
of justice in which the issue was the
use of patents in the glass industry.
The patent laws were enacted by
Congress in accordance with section
8 of the Constitution, which says:
"The Congress shall haUe poWer
=. to promote the progress of
science and useful arts by securing
for iknifed times to authors and in
Uentors the exclusive right to their
respective writings and inUentions."
Under these laws, patent holder
could manufacture his device him
self, or sell his rights, or license
others to make use of the invention.
THE "patent system" which arose
l. became a major factor in the
industrial and chronological develop
ment of the nation, and the system
was not questioned until radicalism
and the "new liberalism" arose.
The socialistic view was that in
ventions should become public
property" either utilized by the
government itself or made immedi-
ately available to others without re-
striction.
But patents could not be confs-
Gated under the Constitution.
Then along came Thurman w.
Arnold with his myths about 1.-THE
folklore of capitalism.
Under his influence the depart
ment of justice adopted the theory
that limited licensing of patents, and
refusal to license competitors, was a
violation of the antitrust laws, and

pense Of $4,000 TO have plans
made which may never be used?
The present day buses have
proven fizzle. small and
crowded. causing many street
accidents. They have proven to
be more costly than the old
street ears wear ott and be-
come junk and worthless. The
life OF a bus is very limited.

from street cars are fewer thu,

SO why go TO such a tremeH

system, W h C h may not be az

Add a trailer to each car. and
you will find that the present

FAIR ENOUGH

NO FAIR American newspaper
l hand would insist that Brit
aims imitation of our Journalist
tic methods and ideas has been
altogether salutary.
1t is fact that in the efforts
of London's popular press, as
distinguished from the more
stately blanket sheets, to jazz
up news and features, British
journalism produced some gro
teSque effects.
They developed something
which their conservatives called
"the stunt press" and it was
pretty awful.
Nevertheless, they did learn
TO put the punch in the lead
and to publish the news quickly,
instead of next week.
They also adopted our pro-
feSsional rule against killing off
a story by backing into it with
some such introduction as last
Wednesday, at the Shrewsbury
ASSlZeS-.
IRONICALLY, when Charles
Il Lindbergh fled to England to
escape the publicity which he
had so deeply resented at home,
and while the British were
preening themselves on their
virtuouS respect for a mans
privacy. our English friends
turned out a gang of reporters
and photographers to pursue
him, whose number and clamor-
Gus conduct seldom have been
equalled in this country.
In the course of the educa-
tion of the British there came

ever delighted our craft.

He resumed his letter TO his

A few minutes later he asked
tactfully, "Dave, did you see

"Yes, yes" Dave said. 81 am

"Of course, splendid" Mr..

Thanks for reminding me-"
So Dave telephoned the hotel
and said he would like 10 speak

told that this was impossible.
The senator had died within the
hour. Over the phone he heard
the music of an orchestra in the

Dave gave up journalism and
returned 10 England. where his

him a salary that was fabulous

ARGENTINA WILL NOT GIVE ADMITTANCE
TO PERSONS ACCUSED OF WAR CRIMES

IN SEPT 2S, the ministry of foreign affairs OF the
~ Argentine republic, published the following com.
munique:
On Sept 3d. the ministry for foreign affairs of Ar
gentna transmitted to its embassy in London the text
of verbal note which the said embassy to present
to the foreign office On Sept 26 Ambassador Dr. Miguel
Angel Careano presented to the British government the
said note which reads thus:
Certain publications Of Great Britain and other
countries appear to be determined to BRING UP THE
POSSIBILITY that Axis leaders may SEEK REFUGE
in Argentina.
1t is unacceptable that such commentaries Shout
have been believed in usually welnformed circles. -
To show the inconsistency of these statements, it
should suffice to point out the mprobabiy of their
CROSSING AN OCEAN DOMINATED AND CON-
TROLLED BY THE NAVAL FORCES OF THE UNITED
NATIONS. Nevertheless the Argentine embassy brings
to the knowledge of the British government that its gov
ernment ratifyng previous declarations, has fixed its
position in this respect as follows
In UiH Argentina give adrttance to
persons accused of crimes.
2-Neither SDW they be permitted to DEPOSIT
CAPITAL or ACQUIRE PROPERTY of any nature

TTNHE Argentine government has the right that these
declarations be believed, in justice, faith is placed
in the expressed intention of other countries which by
reason of their neutrality and proximity would appear to
be MORE EASILY ACCESSIBLE as places of refuge.
On reiteratng these declarations the Argentine gov
ernment makes new and categorlc affirmation of it's
CLEAR INTERNATIONAL POLICY based the self
determination of peoples and traditional bonds of
friendship.
Finally, the Argentine government reaffirms that,
as to the present 1t will continue offer its LOYAL
