To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The world, and particularly the American world, has never secured sufficient advantage from the centuries of experience which lie behind. It is, however, particularly in the United States that the Congressmen and the Execu- tive are subject to the charge of undue cockiness, based upon substantial ignorance of the matter in train. It is on this ground that the law of 1909, like that of 1891, is defective, inconsistent, and inadequate. It fails to secure the reasonable protection for the property... rights of producers, literary, artistic, and musical, which is given in all the states of Europe as a matter of routine and for the interests not only of the producers but of the whole community. It is only in the United States that a law does not seem to be absurd which, while giving with one hand the right to control a copyright protection, under- mines that right with the other. The present statute, for instance, provides in its earlier sections as before stated that in the United States, as elsewhere, the producer of the copyrighted article shall have the full control for himself and through his business representative of all property rights in the same; while later sections express the hesitancy of the lawmakers in confirming what they call a "monopoly" in the thing produced, and leave this copyright market of the United States open in the case of books to the invasion of editions of the same books pro- duced on the other side of the Atlantic.
