Kenzie, chief of engineers, and
David M. Picton, a contractor, to
restrain them from proceeding with
the harbor improvement work at
Aranas Pass, Tex., because of al
leged use in connection with the
work of his patent. Secretary Taft,
General McKenzie and Picton are
cited to appear before Justice Gould
of the Supreme Court of the Dis
trict of Columbia January 24, to
show cause why the injunction ask
ed by Mr. Haupt should not be
granted.
Professor Haupt, who is the
originator of the single jetty plan,
at Aransas Pass, alleges that after
the Aransas Pass Harbor Company
failed to deepen the pass it trans
ferred its contract to the Federal
Government, the transfer including
the Haupt plan. He claims the
private company had no right to
transfer his plan, which had been
patented to him, hence the suit.
He asks for an injunction until
Congress appropriates a sum of
money to pay him for use of his
patent.
