Later, upon the revision of the Treaties, the Japanese Govern ment joined the International Union for the Protection of Industrial Property, and this was announced in July 1899, and foreign pateptes, trade-marks, and designs were brought under the protection of the law in Japan on the same basis as Japanese registered designs.
