RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR THE REGISTRATION OF CLAIMS TO COPYRIGHT. Under the provisions of section 53 "That, subject to the approval of the Librarian of Congress, the Register of Copyrights shall be authorized to make rules and regulations for the registration of claims to copyright as provided by this act," the Rules and Regulations for the Registration of Claims to Copyright have been published as Copyright Office Bulletin No. 15, 27 pages, 8vo. Copies of this Bulletin can be obtained from the Copyright Office upon request. COPYRIGHT OF LABELS AND PRINTS DESIGNED TO BE USED FOR ARTICLES OF MANUFACTURE. The new copyright law approved March 4, 1909, going into effect on July 1, 1909, did not repeal the copyright act of June 18, 1874, according to the opinion of the Attorney-General, of December 22, 1909. Labels or prints designed to be used for articles of manufacture should therefore be registered in the Patent Office. Section 3 of the act of June 18, 1874, reads as follows: SEC. 3. That in the construction of this act the words "engraving, cut, and print" shall be applied only to pictorial illustrations or works connected with the fine arts, and no prints or labels designed to be used for any other articles of manufacture shall be entered under the copyright law, but may be registered in the Patent Office. And the Commissioner of Patents is hereby charged with the supervision and control of the entry or registry of such prints or labels, in conformity with the regulations provided by law as to copyright of prints, except that there shall be paid for recording the title of any print or label, not a trade-mark, six dollars, which shall cover the expense of furnishing a copy of the record, under the seal of the Commissioner of Patents, to the party entering the same. 40 INDEX.
