is the means by which a society guarantees financial reward to its creators — and
thus encourages them to devote their lives to authorship as a profession. Contents :

ning the Compétition ; National First Prize : The USSR joins the Universal

through Twenty-Two ; (3) Law Schools contributing papers to previous Copyright
Law Symposia ; References : (1) Statutes and Cases ; (2) Works cited (some 90 en-
tries). Index : Descriptors : Copyright.
