Young inventors ease travel; receive U.S. patent and offer
By United Press International
NASHUA, N.H.—Two boys may be among the youngest in the nation to apply for a patent for two inventions that make life easier for long distance drivers.
Lewis Barton, 1 and Curtis Lawson,
9 invented a collapsible tray and
non-spillable cup holder for autos. The
attention attracted the attention of
two firms.
The boys were notified recently that their application for a patent on the two inventions has been accepted by the U.S. Patent Office.
Not bad for openers, but the youngsters improved the design to make their invention useful for those in their own age bracket.
dashboard of a car or truck and provides the driver and passenger with a place to put their food and beverage while traveling.
They made the tray retractable and height adjustable so children could use it. It has a small air lip around the edges to prevent scalding. They also steamed steadily as the car bumps, and away from the fire.
A spokesman for the family said yesterday the boys had signed a "confidential agreement" with one manufacturer to market the inventions.
If that doesn't work out, a fast food chain is interested, he said.

A RESPONSE TO DAVID ROBIN
In a letter to the October 4th University Daily Kansan, an assistant instructor in Western Civilization, one David仁博, wonders "Who is William Dann?'" and "What point is Danni making?" Mr. Robin feels that neither *n* nor 'anyone else' understands what it means for someone to be complaining about few efforts about which he is complaining aren't all designed to make one "point."
Mr. Robin is puzzled about my being "apparently upset that someone can support both Reaganomics and local government expenditures for downtown renewal." Mr. Robin obviously knows not that Reaganomics is supposed to liberate from governmental trammails, in supply-side surge George Gilmer's words, "the crucial source of creativity and initiative in any economic system... the individual investor." While Mr. Glider concedes the existence of "widespread belief that capitalist societies, perverted by corporate power, show a persistent bias in favor of business goods and against public services," he rejects this thesis and asserts that "Economies do not grow of their own or by dint of government influence. They grow in response to the enterprise of men willing to take risks."
Thomas Jefferson said the same thing when he defined a "wise and tidal government" as one "which shall leave men (...) free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned." This viewpoint—that it is private funds which should fuel activity in the country — would be applied to public funds and used to protect privately-owned businesses, as is the case in the Downtown Plan, the result is something other than traditional free enterprise.
At this point in his letter Mr. Robin says
However, Dann turns around and advocates that the federal government pursue a policy of full employment. He advocates that government should not nudge in the affairs of private industry and that government should middle in the affairs of private industry.
What I had actually done was refer to the Downtown Plan as a "homegrown heredity" worthy of a "broader application." (A hersey, Mr. Robin, is an "opinion or doctrine contrary to the truth or to generally accepted beliefs"). The Downtown Plan, which I support for other reasons, is heretical because it uses public and private funds to support a group of privately-owned businesses. Although Mr. Robin is an assistant instructor in Western Civilization, he is apparently unaware that all the important advocates of capitalism, from Adam Smith to George Gilder, have held that government should not mediate in the affairs of private industry."
Despite my having pointed out that "The Employment Act of 1946 commits our government to pursuing full employment," Mr. Robin considers my reference to this laudable goal a unilateral declaration. When Mr. Robin attributes to me the opinion that it is the duty of private industry, he ignores the following few sentences from my advertisal:
the vital work in this country—that is the work without which we cannot remain free—is in the public sector. As taxpayers we support public schools that often fail to inform; nursing homes that often fail to care a judicial system that, when confronted with wrongdoing, often fails to take legal action against law enforcement units that on occasion to apprehend. Even as our government ignores these responsibilities in the public sector . . ."
Mr. Robin concludes his descent by assuring us that he "doesn't object to Dann's expressing his opinions" but just feels that they shouldn't be "infiltrated on the public day after day." While Mr. Robin mercilessly rests his case with this contradictory explanation, I find myself wondering what kind of education institution would hire to teach Western Civilization a man who knows nothing about either free enterprise or free speech.
