Fir - Phone SP 2-4666 Threat1 of Gas Fires at Scene Of Temblors Reduced by Patent Washington Science Ser vice - The threat of gas fires and explosions is reduced by a new safety cut-off valve ac tivated by various abnormal conditions from pressure changes to earthquakes. The valve has earned for Timothy J. Sullivan, Butte, Mont., one of 937 patents awarded by the U.S. Patent Office here .this week. Sulli van assigned his patent, No 2,873,753, to the Sullivan Valve and Engineering com pany, also of Butte. Intended for use in press ure gas lines feeding home and industrial heaters and boilers, the valve cuts the gas supply automatically. Service can be restored only by man ually resetting the valve. Responsive to shocks due to earthquakes and explosions, the valve .immediately stops the gas flow which might oth erwise feed an uncontrolled fire or contaminate the envir onment. It is also activated by' electric power failure, excess ive heat and sudden increases and decreases in temperature. Electromagnetic Mining An electromagentic device for locating and determining the sizes of ore bodies has been invented by Arthur A. Brant and Allan W. Love, both of Clarkdale, Ariz. By impressing an alternat ing magnetic field through the ground, the device induc es a voltage in hidden ores ov er a wide volume of earth. A secondary coil, lowered and raised in a small-diameter drill hole as deep as 2,000 feet, enables geophysicists to de tect voltages set up by result ant eddy currents and thus lo cate the ore. While the original magnetic field and the voltage induced in the pickup coil are alternat ing at the same frequency, the waves as recorded on a graph may overlap. The amount of overlap, or phase angle, deter mines the size of the ore body. As the secondary coil is mov ed through the drill hole, , the distance between the - maxi mum and minimum values Of the phase angle serves as a measure of the distance from the hole to the ore. Brant and Love received patent No. 2,874,348, which they assigned to the Newmont Mining corporation of New York City. Space pilots may be kept alive and comfortable by an air-conditioning unit which has no moving parts. The system withdraws used air from the cabin, mixes it with oxygen and re-introduces it into the cabin. The cycle works this way: The liquid oxygen is headed and converted into a gas which through its own pres sure is forced into a vortex tube. , In whirling down through the tube, the pressure is lowered enough to draw in cabin air. The mixture flows out the bottom opening of the tube. The oxygen acts as a re frigerant, thus cooling the ca bin. Heat drawn off by the tube is recycled. and used to 4000 Children Die Of Cancer Yearly New York-Science Service Cancer takes the lives of about 4,000 children under 15 years of age each year. Within the age group of children from five to 14, this disease takes more lives in the U.S. than anj other dis ease. The highest death rate from cancer in childhood oc curs among the preschool youngsters, rising gradually to a peak between ages three and four, statisticians of the Met ropolitan Life Insurance Com pany pointed out. Leukemia, cancer of the blood, is the most common form of malignancy in chil dren. It is responsible for nearly half the cancer death toll at ages under.15. . Cancers of he nervous sys tem, chiefly the brain, consti tute the second most frequent category and account for about one-fifth of all deaths from cancer in childhood. Oth er - fairly frequent sites of childhood cancer are the kid ney and bone.

Va., received patent No. 2, 873,994 for the invention of a spring-backed car bumper in tended to take strong shocks without breaking. Shock absorbers connect the bumper to the chassis. When the bumper is hit, the shock is taken by fluid in a cylinder which drives a piston against a coil spring. Pleasant Odor Everett D. Morey, Louis ville, Ky., has invented a means of giving a pleasant odor to clothes running through automatic driers. A fragrant atomized spray is in troducer' in the warm air flow in the machine. To prevent loss of the fragrance, an air tight container is incorporated in the drier mechanism. Morey received and assign ed patent No. 2,873,539 to the General Electric company, Nev York. Heat From Slag Two Germans invented a method for recovering heat from molten slag and utilizing it to pre-heat the combustion air delivered to metallurgical furnaces. The molten slag is drawn off from the furnace and plac ed in contact with a granulat ed slag which picks up much of the heat. Incoming air is passed over the hot granulat ed material before introduc tion to the furnace. Andreas Sifrin and Her mann Hennecke, Oberhausen, Germany, were awarded pat ent No. 2,873,554 which they assigned to The Babcock & Wilcox company of New York City. Senate Approves Resolution For Oregon City Celebration Salem-0Pfl-By a unanimous' Sen. Melvin Goode (R-Al- vote, the Senate Thursday ap proved a resolution providing for participation by the Ore gon Legislature in a Centen nial celebration in Oregon City March 18. The resolution, introduced by the Clackamas county del egation provides for a recess of the Legislature March 18, after which the solons will proceed to the Thoro Gard iner junior high school in Ore gon City. - An unofficial session of the Legislature is scheduled to be held in the school to reenact and commemorate the early sessions of the Oregon Legisla ture in 1859 at Oregon City. Break for 'Little Fellow Two bills, which supporters declared "give the little fel low a break" were passed by unanimous vote. One would permit a taxpay er who has a tax deficiency to put up a bond or security guaranteeing payment of his deficit. By so doing, the Tax Commission would not be re quired to place a lien on his property and thus inform neighbors of his financial dif ficulties, according to Sen. Ben Musa (D-The Dalles). The other bill amends the present statute requiring a 25 per cent penalty on a gift, re ducing this amount to 5 per cent penalty added on each month the tax is unpaid, but in no case can the penalty ex ceed 25 per cent. Sen. Dan Dimick (D-Rose-burg) claimed on the floor of the Senate that his integrity had been questioned in a leg islative bulletin issued by the Associated Oregon Industries. The bulletin, placed on each senator's desk, carried brief outline? of various bills intro duced recently. The one ob jected to by Dimick read: "Senate bill 358 (Dimick and Skelton) would prohibit state or national chairmen of any political party from lob bying activities. This legisla tion is aimed at State Chair man Peter Gunnar, presently advocating passage of a bill in this Legislature." bany) declared that he could see nothing attacking the in tegrity of Dimick in the short bulletin item. Dimick attempted to answer Good, but Senate President Walter Pearson told Dimick he had spoken once and could not speak again. This ended the brief debate. The Senate State and Fed eral Affairs Committee ap proved a proposed legislative interim committee study of labor problems after both lab or and industry representa tives endorsed it. The study, designed to pro vide a code for labor relations, would be made by a seven-: member committee composed of two Republicans and two Democrats from the House and Senate, end three appoint ed by the governor from in dustry, labor and the public.

Los Angeles-Mrs. Eugenie Anderson, former U.S. ambas sador to Denmark, on United States responsibility for the present international impasse: "We have witnessed, indeed we are party to, a steady decline of Western influence in the Middle East ... we have witnessed, and we are a party to, the tragic erosion of Amer ican prestige throughout Asia." Melbourne, Australia-Evangelist Billy Graham, using the interruption of a fireworks display in his sermon at an out door rally: "Unless the hearts of men change the sounds you hear now will be nothing compared to what could come from an other war." Jessup, Ga.-Deputy Sheriff Otis Jones, acknowledging that Georgia has gained a reputation as a "speed trap": "These people come speeding down through here killing people and we have to arrest them, that's all."
