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.

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 $1.75 per barrel.
There are several theories as to
the origin, the most notable being
that the oil comes from a leak In one
of the many nearby pipelines from the I
fields. - j
"I don't care where it comes from," ;
said Salcldo, "Just so it keeps com
ing" which it probably won't. Simi-
inr backyard oil wells near famous ;
Signal Hill dried up when refineries
plugged the leaks.
Hor$e Thievery Revives.

of Cincinnati was convicted of horse
stealing here, the first man found
guilty of this crime in Clermont '
