Westinghouse sought and found capi,
tai elsewhere, manufactured his inven-
tion and made high speed possible on
railroads, revolutionizing traffic sys-
tens and inaugurating q notable era
of railway development.
Mr.. Westinghouse did not confine his
genius to railroading. For half a CEN
tury he continued TO mako other con-
tributions to electrical as we'll as en-.
gineering advancement. His inventions
and improvements had to do with rail
way signaling, the development Of the
alternating current system for electric
lighting and power, devices for safety
and for econ nomically conveying natural
gas over long distances and using it for
industrial and domestic fuel, mir springs
for motor vehicles, and geared turbine

Given High Honors.


In return for his many achievements
the highest honors in the gift of the
technical societies and institutions of
Europe and America were bestowed up
on him, European sovereigns comforting
distinguished orders. AS recently as last
December he received from the princi-
pal engineering society of Germany the
celebrated Grashof gold medal.
Mr.. Westinghouse founded many
manufacturing companies in this coun'
try and abroad. In these plants some
many companies have a capitalization
aggregating s2oo,0o0,00o.
Mr.. Westinghouse s mental alertness
impaired. The final few years of life
were among the most productive. For
several months he had, however, linn
tied his activities, placing. greater
responsibilities on his associates: Tt

Suffered by Panic.
Mr.. Westinghouse and his various
ventures suffered severely in the panic
of 1907. In October Of that year the
Westing ghouse Electric & Manufacturing
company went into bankruptcy, from
which 1t was released year later,
after the creditors had accepted n plnn
of reorganization. After that episode
the control of the Westinghouse COM
pany and some of its subsidiaries rested

Pittsburg banking interests. Westing-

cent yearly from 1904 to 1907. sus.
pended dividends altogether from the
latter part Of 1907 until 1912, when
they were resumed on q per cent
basis, and last year per cent was
paid. According TO some of his bust
ness associates Mr.. Westinghouse mover
recovered from the shock he received
when control Of his numerous enter
prises was taken out Of his hands.
The reorganization plan was con-
ceived by Mr.. Westinghouse. who urged
it's adoption in preference to plans
submitted from other quarters by emf

Charles L. Quinn, pastor of the Re-
formed Episcopal church in Leonard
street Greenpoint spent today pre-
pairing his "valedictory" sermon in

Quinn today again explained that he
did not say either. He explained that
he did say there are lots of things
damned sight worse than dancing"
He explained thus: But | used
damned in the past tense which the
dictionary tells you means condemned,
detestable. Therefore | did not use
damn" as a swear word. There was
no profanity"
Scores of Rev. Quinn's parishioners
fought the action Of certain church

from resigning, declaring he has great

Portsmouth, Ohio
Gentlemen:
wish to give you 'one concrete case
of a boy from this section of the city,
who had been cigarette fiend for five
years. His growth was stunted, and
his complexion from the effects of
nicotine was as yellow as a pumpkin.
He was conceded by all to be one of
the toughest boys in this section of the
city. He became interested i'll the Boy
Scout work; joined one of our Troops,
gave up his cigarette smoking; in
fact, all other bad habits, and today is
living as clean a life as any boy in
Portsmouth He never misses a Scout
meeting, and through the work has
been led into one of our local Sunday
Schools.
| would not exaggerate if | were to
say that believe | could give you fifty
more such cases in our own city.
