Abstract

The Radio Trust Gets the Air!
Anderson, Paul Y. | June 26, 1929 issue

add to cart   close window

Most of disclosures of tremendous imports are concerned with the Radio Corp. of America, its extraordinary efforts to monopolize practically every field of this new art, and the apparent apathy, or actual sympathy, of certain government departments toward those efforts. It has been testified within the last few days that the Radio Corp.'s practical monopoly on the manufacture of receiving sets rests very largely upon its ownership of a certain patent and that this patent is antedated by a patent in the possession of the Navy Department. Yet the Navy Department has made no effort to establish legal priority for its patent, although by so doing it might break the Radio Corp.'s control of the industry.
