MEDFORD JtlAIL TRIBUTE, MEDFOKD, OREGON". THURSDAY. AUGUST S, 1933. PAGE THREE TO HELP INVENTORS AVOIDSWNDLERS Competent Advice And Gui dance Offered Schemes For Defrauding Patent Holders Are Given Light. NEW YORK (UP) Inventors In the United States are defrauded of pillions of dollars by unscrupulous persons who make a regular business of preying on those who receive pat ent grants from the United Patent office. On the other side of the pic ture, individuals and business organl rations who purchase patents In good fitlth are frequently victimized by unscrupulous Inventors. Data on fraudulent practices which the Inventor and the purchaser of an invention must guard against have been complied by the Inventors Foundation, founded by Henry J. Gaisman. one of the nation's most successful Inventors and chairman of the board of the Gillette Safety Ra zor company. Offers Advice In co-operation with New York University. Stevens Institute of Tech nology and the International Corres pondence Schools, the Foundation seeks to provide competent advice and guidance in all matters relating to patents and inventions. One of the most frequent propos als made by swindlers to inventors is to offer to sell the inventor's patent on a 25 per cent commission basis. The contract is so drawn that the swindler can merely hold it, do noth ing and await results. When the ln centor, after a long wait fails to ob tain a buyer by this arrangement, and then succeeds in finding one by other means, he discovers that he Is still obligated to pay the swindler a fourth of what he receives. Another favorite scheme Is for the swindler to tell the inventor that he has a buyer who will pay a large sum for the Canadian rights provided a patent is taken out In Canada. This the swindler agrees to attend to for. say $200 00. Pay High for Rights The agreement to obtain the patent in Canada is carried out, but then the inventor is told that the buyer has changed his mind; the sale is off. The Inventor has his Canadian pat ent, but he has paid two or three times as much for it as he would have If he had gone about it through a reputable patent attorney. There are unscrupulous inventors as well as unscrupulous persons who prey upon inventors. Probably the most common type of fraud under this head is for the Inventor to sell what seems to be a valuable patent to one manufacturer, and then pro ceed to sell to a competing manufac turer a- patent for an Improvement which makes the first patent prac tically worthless. 4 13 BBLS. OF OIL DAILY WILMINGTON. Cal. (UP) He doesn't know where it comes from, but Cristobal Salcldo is getting 13 barrels of oil daily from the family water pump in the back yard and selling It at $1.75 per barrel. There are several theories as to the origin, the most notable being that the oil comes from a leak In one of the many nearby pipelines from the I fields. - j "I don't care where it comes from," ; said Salcldo, "Just so it keeps com ing" which it probably won't.
