„Valid copyright to Charlie Chaplin in Dough and Dynamite“

Editorial content. „Keystone Owner of Dough and Dynamite

      So declares Judge Hough in District Court, Who Issues Perpetual   

      Injunction Against New Apollo.

      THE Keystone Film Company, with the co-operation

of W. H. Productions Company, through their

attorney, Walter N. Seligsburg, has won a court victory that

should be of benefit in eliminating duping and

infringement upon copyrights.

      Judge Hough, in the District Court of the United States,

Southern District of New York, has ordered adjudged and decreed

as follows:

      That the Keystone Film Company is and has been

at all times the owner of a good and valid copyright to Charlie

Chaplin in Dough and Dynamite and other Keystone

subjects.

      That the New Apollo Feature Film Company, Inc.,

and Hugo Mayenthau have infringed upon the

said copyright and upon the exclusive right of the Keystone

Film Company by purchasing, distributing and

vending, exhibiting or causing to be exhibited, copied

or causing to be copied, printing or causing to be

printed the said copyrighted motion picture photoplay

entitled Dough and Dynamite and other

Keystone subjects.“ (...)

      „In lieu of the fact that Hugo Frank Mayenthau has given

valuable information to the Keystone Film Company

and W. H. Production Company concerning the duping and

infrinching upon copyrighted Keystone subjects

which are now legally being distributed by W. H. Productions

Company, this action has been discontinued

against the defendant.“
