Mie is the only woman who ever ;Son a case ' before the aupreme court ot the United States, and the n the only woman member of the ((American Association of Engineers, laving" just been elected a vice presi dent of the Chicago chapter. This membership is extended only to those vho have completed at least one course in engineering and have been engaged in the profession for seven jears. She' No Faddist .Having spent 25 years in patent Jv, Miss King i no feminine fad ui;t by any means, yet' slic often addresses women's clubs and civic societies. , "Among other things," says Miss King, "that attempted enforcement f ,1... r1ti Kit rt l-jtu lis. ,rt f-lno frrftd the wheel of justice' in the federal courts that it has become imperative lor congress to speedily enact legis lation providing for additional fed eral judges. ' -' "More than three . years have passed since the war ended, and the profiteers are still doing business at wartime prices; secure in the knowl edge that an attempted prosecution means long delays. Speedy trials would do more to put an end to the high cost of living than all the in vestigating committees, boycotts and 1 other suggested methods can ever trl,-," . ' Would Stifle ' Competition.' The case "to come -up for argu mcnt before the supreme court is, in the opinion of Miss King, simply one of a big concern trying to put a smaller one out of business. ,Un this case Miss King says:-'' "In mv case for the Crown Dye and Tool company, in which- the Nye Tool and Machine company is the respondent, the wye concern has no patents of its own upon which it can bring suit. So it purchased from a third party the right to pro mote litigation. -Upholding of such a right by the highest court would create a new weapon by which a large company would stifle free com petition. It is" against this that I am fighting, for such a decision would place a prohibitive premium on the '.Man who had inventive genius start ing in business for himself. Neither w-)uld an honest concern feel like putting money in a new patent with the flood gates open to litigation rights simply by purchase. In other words, the whole issue is: What pro tection docs the law afford the own er of a patent?" Man, Discovers Mixture to - Start Frozen Auto Eugiue Edmonston,Alta., Feb. . 23. Prof. Charles A.
