SYDNEY. October 3d.
Mr G. Mason Al'.ard. chairman of dim-tors of Amalgamated Wireless (Australasia''. Limited, informed the shareholders that a claim for infringement of patent rights against the New Zealand Government would be taken up on receipt of full information from New Zealand in regard U. the legislation which empowered companies and others to carry on broadcasting as Government agents. The New Zealand Government had made a most extraordinary departure from the practice and law of nations in regard to patent rights, and had repudiated what it had previously held out and for whk-h it. had taken fees. It was one thing, he said, to negotiate; for a price for the sale of a right to use their patent and another to establish a claim and figure for compensation for deprivation of property. Patentees the world over and financial circles generally would bo astounded by the action of the New Zealand Government.
