Heinl Radio News Service 6/12/46 FURTHER REDUCTIONS IN OVERSEAS RADIOPHOTO RATES BY RCA Substantial reductions in radiophoto rates to six overseas points were placed in effect on June 10th by R. C.A. Communica¬ tions, Inc, to cover transmissions between New York and Stockholm, Nurenberg, Berne, Rome, and Buenos Aires, and between San Francisco and Honolulu. Previous rate reductions have decreased the cost of radiophoto service on the New York-London and New York-PariS cir¬ cuits. The new rate for the six circuits will be $20 for the minimum of 150 square centimeters (about 24 square inches) and $10 for each additional block of 100 square centimeters. Thompson H. Mitchell, Executive Vice-President , said that additional reductions in the rates for radiophoto service between New York and Cairo and between San Francisco and Melbourne, Australia, are contemplated. xxxxxxxxxx MANUFACTURERS URGED TO PROD CONGRESS MEMBERS ON PATENT BILLS The National Association of Manufacturers has sent the following "S.O.S. " to its members regarding Dending patent bills: "On May 8 we wrote you concerning the important Lanham Trade-mark bill. Since that time the Senate Committee on Patents has reported out the measure with certain amendments. Up to the present, however, the Senate has taken no action. Consequently, we hope that if you have not already done so, you are planning to advise your Senators of your interest in the bill. "In addition to this bill, there are certain patent meas¬ ures designed to improve and strengthen the patent system which have been passed by the House of Representatives after careful examina¬ tion by its Committee on Patents and by the House itself. These measures are the Boykin Patent Priority bill, H. R. 5223; Boykin bill for recording of patent agreements, H. R. 3756; Henry bill for simplification of accounting procedure, H. R. 5311, and Lanham bill, H.R. 1439, * * * "Unless prompt action is taken by the Senate, these import¬ ant measures will dies in this session of Congress. All of the time and effort which the members of the House of Representatives have put into these bills will be lost if prompt action is not forthcoming. Therefore, it is hoped that all who are interested in the patent system will write their Senators urging the immediate passage of these measures as well as the Lanham Trade-mark bill." xxxxxxxx 11
