Reference ear aade to a letter by Dr. Radtke of 3*r%ry ICth. 1962 to the Industry Crrelopaect Coanlttee which proposed alternate aetbode of oosaarclalltlng the proeene.
Dr. Itedtks nentlooad that response to this Indicated that the pro cane should be assigned to plstlrg supply bouses for cr*x*eretailsat loo rather than licensing user*.
Legal counsel, advised that It was desirable that the process be aade available on a nonrestrlctlve basis.
A araorandna to the TDC, "Oonaerelell ration of the CCMTWO Cectmchaal cal Process', Harch 6, 1962. prepared by Mr. t. I. Esin of The Ire Jersey fine Ooopacy was distributed and reviewed. Ibis suggested that:
* the AZI grant directly to users royalty free licenses contingent upon cospllaace with the condition that the licensee send c-jenetent pers-tmel to eoee Independent agency, such ss Battalia Meoorlal Institute, who would aalntaln an Instruction center on behalf of the AZI, and that the prospective licensee would pay for this Instruction a fee designed to sake the operation appraxlaately self-supporting. Technical service would also be provided by this agency on a alaller self-supporting basin.
'In order to protect the reputation of the process, each license should oootaln the provision that It could be revoked no proper notice if the AZI deteralned that the process was not being properly carried out and If the licensee did not oorTect hie practice within a prescribed tins.*
