Father of automatic block signaling credited at 1872 test

The article notes William Robinson as the father of automatic block signaling for railways. His 1872 trial on the Philadelphia & Erie line near Kinzua is hailed as foundational to modern systems and safety in railway operations. It cites an Interstate Commerce Commission report praising the invention as key to safety and dispatch. Also mentioned are a Southern Pacific train of 20 locomotives and early radio telegraph gear on a Goliath biplane with 35 watts and 180 mile range.

Lengthening Life The Public Health View on 75 by 1972

The American Public Health Association backs a 75 year life expectancy by 1972 with roots in Dr. Stephen Smith’s century vision. They note historical averages have risen from about 30 to 55 and discuss factors like infant mortality, migration, and actuarial data. Emphasis shifts to health maintenance across lifespans and keeping older workers productive.
