THE GOVERNMENT AND THE
INVENTOR.
The new Act, while instituting the plan' of preliminary official examination as to novelty does not give the Comptroller power to refuse a patent when he considors that there is an absence of novelty. This power of refusal, which is given, for in- sance, to the German Patent Office ex- aminers, is, says Engineering, very objeo donahlo, and does, in many instances, grievous harm, for examiners are only hu- man, and often make mistakes, as do other mortals. Patents are refused that ought w be granted, and patents àre granted for inventions be ieved to bo now, but which,

We could cite many OFFICES of the COMPANY, Alez«ndra maes to show how opinions are liable to differ on the subject of patentability even where ample evidence is available, which is very rarely the case at the time of the application for a patent.

And in each close Cass the examiner has power to act as judge. What is usually the result? The patent is refused, and the inv ntor has. no remedy. We do not think that it can be gained that the manufacturing industry in this country has, in the past, greatly benefited from the in troduction of inventions under patents which, had preliminary xamination and the power of refusal obtained, would probs. bly have been granted, and having led to impront industrial and commercial re- suite, have been, with the practical evidence then "vailable, upheld by the Courts. But we think enough has been said to prove that the new Act will prove a blessing to manufacturers and inventors. The latter will be protected against him-elf, and the former will be protected against those un- principled persons who obtain patente with anjustifiable claims, merely for the purpose of levying blackmail.
