RADIO LITIGATION.
throes of patent claimors.
The situation in the radio field
today is almost a duplication or the
difficulties and setbacks that held
the automobile industry in check
until 1912.
That year Henry Ford succeeded
in liberating the automobile world
from the control of the Selden pat-
ents. and started the automobile on
its remarkable rush toward perfec-
tion. Until then an automobile en-
gineer couldn't devise a simple im-
provement without being stopped by
a Sclden patent, fer :' “zen at that
time had rights to practically every-
thing that took part in making an
automobile go.
The Seiden of radio today appears
to he Prof. Marius Latour of France.
who came here recently and assigned
his patent rights to a group of
radio firms for a tidy sum. The pat-
ents. according to Latour. are so
general and almost universal in their
scope .that practically every receiv-
ing set today could be considered all
infringement-ail exc..' the simple
crystal receiver.
The owners of these patents in
America have made no threatening
moves as yet. But they have the
power to do what Seldcn did until
Henry Ford came along and had the
courage—and the bath. :~—to fight
his rights Up to the L'. S. Supreme
Court.
Nothing probably ~.-.-iil be done un-
til some independent radio manu-
facturer begins to challenge the field
with a. receiver better and cheaper
than any of these brought out by
the Lstour patentecs. In fact, the
radio world oan't re-t easily while
this threat hangs over its head.
Licensing isn't straugcfo the radio
industry. however. Fourteen manu-
facturers of neutrodyne receivers are
