Opinion

[562]*562MEMORANDUM BY THE COURT

The court increased the allowance per barrel over the royalty of- $0.25 per barrel fixed by plaintiff, as appears in the findings. This increase we think is supported by the fact that the lesser royalty fixed by plaintiff was so fixed to avoid the expense of litigation and other factors involved in the same. The plaintiff’s patent was a narrow one and did not extend to a patented barrel. See the court’s original opinion in 74 C. Cls. 428.
