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.

Calif., received patent No. 2,
873,582, which he assigned
to The Garrett Corporation,
Los Angeles.
Absorbing Car Bumpers
James Ray Omps, Elkins,
W. 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

and commemorate the early
sessions of the Oregon Legisla

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.
