✦ Synopsis

T he textile industry is currently the fifth largest industrial sector in the UK, despite its fragmentation into many specialist and diverse activities such as haute couture, furnishing fabrics and synthetic fibre production 1 . It is, however, constantly in flux, reacting to fashion, design and commercial changes on a global scale. The growing importance of design in textiles manufacture has been apparent in the UK during the whole of the post war period so much so that one analysis claims that the UK has the largest number of educational and training courses in textile and apparel design, per capita, in the world 2 .

Committee reports. Report on patent law

Committee reports. Report on patent law revision**The evidence in support of the Preambles and Resolutions and suggested additions to the copyright, patent and trade-mark laws contained in the first part of our report was not published in the May Journal owing to want of space. I am now sending you the remaining part of the report, by request, as it is considered quite necessary for the members of the Association to have in their hands before the next annual meeting, the entire document for consideration and study. It is believed that this will decidedly facilitate matters and save much time at the annual meeting which otherwise might be used up in unnecessary discussion of the subject.Your Committee wishes to again emphasize that fact that we have no desire to impose our personal views on the Association. The copyright and patent laws were designed to promote progress in science and the useful arts and the trade-mark laws to protect the public from fraud and imposition. It is generally conceded that the laws as now interpreted and applied fall short in accomplishing their purpose. It is therefore incumbent upon the A. Ph. A., representing the pharmacists of America, to suggest proper modifications of the law, of such kind as to secure the very important objects for which they were enacted.—F. E. Stewarcth, Chairman.
