Fourteen persons were killed in

the statement today after a pre-

see signal light in time to stop"
Woodruff said the ''investiga-

stopped behind passenger train at
Binghamton station, and after de-
parting from that point had passed
two signals indicating trains
ahead.
Both these signals are in an
automatic train control territory

gineer, before passing, has to
acknowledge them, which indicates
he was aware the track was not

o. K Says Miss Newton That Means
Your Gadget Has A Patent From Uncle Sam
By SIGRID ARNE
tBy Associated PressD


WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.-The
man who. for example, gets a
patent on his invention of a new
expansible, chamber-type motor
receives his government COX"
after the bright, brown eyes of a
young woman have gone over his
plans.
Elizabeth Jane Newton might
inspire jealousy in her famous
ancestor, Sir Isaac Newton, dis
coverer of the laws of gravity, if
he could see her at work.
Engines Faseinate Her
All day she pores over intricate
charts and engineers drawings at
the patent examiners office in the
commerce department. Each week
she passes on from 20 to 40 APP
plications for patents on inven-
tions in the motor world.
"They are complicated" Miss
Newton admits, "but engines, es-
pecially the internal combustion
type, are the most fascinating
things / know"
She began her training at Duke
university and then taught mathe-
MATES in a North Carolina high
school.
She appears anything but the
type of person who understands
just why an engine performs it's
mysterious functions. She speaks
with a soft southern accent. Her
auburn hair curls softly about her
face. But her desk is a business
like affair, where she presides
over blue-prints.
Gust what is my job? Why, /
interview applicants and attor-
neys," she says. 'sThen ! examine
and report on their claims.
Reared On Farm
'There have been cotton press
es, inventions for dairying, pre-
serving bee culture and tobacco
my first assignments" she says.
"But was brought up in the
midst of such things on a North
Carolina farm.
"Then / was moved to fire ex-
tinguishers, liquid heaters and
vaporizers, printed matter, book
making, curtains tents and UNI
brellas.
Some months ago / fell heir
to the motor art. But there's
nothing unusual about it. Women
have been inventing for CEN
turtles. and they are increasing
annually at the rate of three to
one, compared with men. Their
inventions deal mostly with in
dustrial arts and transportation,
rather than household contriv-
ances."
Miss Newton is irrepressible
about her enthusiasm for engines.
When she travels she usually
visits factories. where she is
readily admitted into rooms
marked, "Danger-Keep Out"
Patent examiners are barred
from inventing while in govern
ment service.
THAT doesn't stop me, though.
from doing things for myself, I"
