- Description:
- The document is a letter from a patent attorney, Bernard P. Miller, urging Honorable George B. Schwabe to oppose the Kilgore-Murray-Voorhees Bill, which Miller believes will stifle inventive efforts and hinder industrial progress. He argues that the bill would limit inventors' rights and hinder business innovation, ultimately leading to a stagnation of industrial progress. Miller also refutes the idea that patents are often "shelved" and explains how such practices are necessary for efficient business operations. He urges Schwabe to protect the rights of inventors and oppose the bill for the betterment of the country's industrial leadership.
