Summary
The Court stated "To us it indicates the contrary, in so far as patentability refers to the right of different persons to take patents on the same compound are concerned. It may very well be that the two counts are so distinct as that the holder of a patent on the generic ‘composition of matter’ is entitled to state separately in the same patent a claim to specified uses of the same substance; and, in that sense, the two claims may be patentably distinct. But it does not follow that they are so distinct as to authorize the issuance of separate patents to separate persons. No discussion whatever appears in the record as to the patentability of the counts titled ‘lubricant’, ‘lubricating oil’, or ‘method’ over those titled ‘composition of matter’ or ‘metal cutting composition’."
