EdiSOn's Latest.

ONE TIME ago it was said in
the newspapers that Thomas
~ \, Edison had invented Il
light weight storage battery
which promised to r"volutioniHc the
propcllnG of vehicles and boats. Then
came reports that this announcement
was premature and that while Mr.. :di-
son had been working on the storage
battery problem he had encountered in
supcrabe difficulties. Now in an uu-
thori2cd interview printed in the New
York sun the West Orange wizard con-
firms the original statement. He SAYS:
THE present types of storage bat
ferries dcteriorate very rapidly. In the
experiments have made with the new
battery there has been no evident de-
torioration. Another advantage is. tech
nically speaking, its large storage
capacity per unit of mass. In other
