- Editor's Notes
- In England & France, the treaty protects you for six months from your application here, so there is no hurry in those two countries. ## Germany however did not join in the treaty, and the publication of your paper will make it impossible for you to get a valid German patent. Is it not likely to be printed at once, or at most within a couple of weeks. ## I don't see how I could possibly get off the German patent before Dye returns next week as the spec[-] is not written and I am entirely unfamiliar with the matter. ## Do you wish, anyway, to apply for a German patent and run the risk of its being invalidated by the publication which is pretty sure to occur before the papers could be filed in Germany, even if they could be sent off today."
