Radio Inventors. i BY MARTIN CODEL. | Many and devious legal paths must be surmounted before final judgment is | rendered in the ‘“socket power unit” case, | in which the Radio Corporation of Amer- | ica was held by Federal Judge Hugh M. Morris to be infringing patents held by Francis W. Dunmore and Percival D. | Lowell, the young radio engineers who invented the battery eliminator for ra-| dio receiving sets while in the employ ofdlhe United States Bureau of Stand- ards. Motion for an enjoining order must | next be submitted to Judge Morris by the two inventors, who are plaintiffs in the case with the Dubilier Condenser | Corporation, exclusive licensees under | their patents. The motion will prob- ably be heard in Wilmington, Del., next | Priday, when it is apparent that counsel | ties on nearly all such sets. | the decision. {held two of the three patents involved for the Radio Corporation of America will move for a stay pending appeal of | the case to the Court of Appeals of the third circuit. | Reports from New York today indi- cated clearly that the defendant will appeal. It was pointed out by the Radio Corporation of America that four claims of one of the litigated patents | and three claims of another were held | by Judge Morris not to have been in- | fringed. The Radio Corporation of | America also stated that this case does | not involve the suit it has brought | against the Dubilier corporation on the so-called Hull patents covering alternat- | ing-current power supply. This suit is| still pending. Depends on Review. | ‘The question of appeal will determine whether the injunction shall be sus-| pended, and an accounting shall de- pend on the review by the higher court Plaintiffs will ask for an accounting covering practically every radio set ever manufactured in this country that de- rives its alternating current from house Three pairs for Buy three pairs and save more. 3.00, 5.00, 1,800 pairs of power supply instead of batteries. If the decision of Judge Morris is sus- tained, the plaintiffs will be in'a posi- tion to collect back and future royal-'| William Dubllier, technical adviser of 4 the Dubilier Condenser Corporation, es- timated that back royalties -should amount to $10,000,000 or more. Not only the Radio Corporation of America | but the numerous other manufacturers | of radio sets which are licensed to use its patents are said to be affected by ‘These companies repre- sent about 95 per cent of the country’s radio production. Under their license arrangement, the Dubilier corporation, | Dunmore and Lowell are to derive half | the royalties from their patents. Royalties would be fixed at the dis- | cretion largely of the court, which has in the suit to have been infringed. Even | if the royalty assessment on each set | is small, the plaintiffs, according to| their counsel, are in a position to be- | come wealthy from the widespread use of their invention. So-called electrified sets practically dominate the radio mar- | ket today. Worked in Washington. | Dunmore and Lowell collaborated on their invention and took out their pat- ents while doing research work, par- ticularly on radio reception from air-| craft, for the Bureau of Standards in ‘Washington. ‘ They found a means of deriving power for their receiving sets directly from power lines instead of from the heavy batteries that had to be trucked or carried about. Lowell also was injured | by acid from a battery, an incident | which stimulated his desire to do way | with the battery altogether in all radio reception. Dunmore is still & research assistant in’the radio laboratories of the Burenu‘ of Standards, and is at present on a vacation in Maine. His salary, like that | of most Government workers, is small. | Lowell left the bureau some years ago, and is at present chief engineer of the A. H. Grebe Co., New York radio man- | ufacturers. | (Copyright, 1920. by North American News- | paper Alliance.)
