Its impossible to know how many people believe these fables, but the number is probably substantial. Some of the stories, untrue as they are, are ingenius and fascinating. One of the oldest tells of a pill or a powder which when mixed with water provides a motor fuel a3 good as gasoline at practically no cost. Thi3 tremendous discovery, the tale runs, wa3 at once bought up by the oil companies and consigned to oblivion. Its obvious that if a man actually could produce such a compound he would gain, wealth beyond the dreams of avarice by the simple expedient of selling it to the public but that fact is conveniently overlooked. Still another tells of an amazing carbu 50 miles or so to the gallon of gas. Again, it is alleged, the oil companies grabbed the patent and made sure the device will never be marketed. No one ha3 ever been able to find this patent in the patent-offic- e files, which are open to the public but that fact is also overlooked in retor which will give low-pri- FOREIGN AID VS.

The owner refused, and a still higher offer was made. Finally, in desperation the dealer explained. The car the man had bought, he said, was an experimental model which had been shipped from the factory in error. The company had been scouring the nation for it, and would pay anything to get it back. There the story ends. The fact is, of course, that experimental cars are not even produced in the same plants as standard models, and it would be impossible for one of them to be included in the regular shipments to dealers. Still another tall tale deals with a razor blade which will last forever, and which was bought by a leading razor company for millions and suppressed. The razor people made a strenuous effort to trace this story to its source, but were unsuccessful. They said theyd never seen such a blade, but theyd certainly like to. Official bodies have investigated charges that astonishingly valuable patents were being abused or suppressed. Anyone who wished to was free to testify.
