Debate on Patents and Public Utility Remarks
In a discussion about patents the speaker warned that large capital, and broad dealings with tradesmen, were needed for manufactories and shipping. He argued for extending patent terms only if the public benefit justified it, citing examples like a new feed, shoe blacking liquid, and iron plates. Leave was granted to proceed. The House adjourned to the next day after noting land tax and road bills.
