1 U. K. Treaty Series No. 55 (1938) ; 53 (U. S.) Stat. 1748. Both the United Kingdom and the United States are parties to the convention. The pertinent sub-article reads, in the translation used by the House of Lords: “In any case, an application for the grant of a compulsory license may not be made before the expiration of three years from the date of the issue of the patent, and this license may only be granted if the patentee is unable to justify himself by legitimate reasons. No proceedings for the revocation of a patent may be instituted before the expiration of two years from the date of the granting of the first compulsory license.”
