Called TO Aid Navy,
Edison Accepts Task,
Heads Advisory Board

West Orange, N. j., July IA
Thomas A. Edison has accepted an
invitation from Secretary Daniels to
head an advisory board OF civilian in
ventors for bureau of invention and
development to be created In the ma
Wy department. His acceptance will
go forward at once to Washington,
where the new plans await word from
the man "who can turn dreams into
realities"
Mr.. Daniels idea of utilizing the
inventive genius of Americans in and
out of the military and laval service
to meet conditions of warfare shown
in the conflict on land and sea in
Europe is outlined in letter written
last Wednesday asking Mr.. Edison
whether as a patriotic service to his
country he would undertake the task
of advising the proposed bureau.
The plan Is to have several men prom.
inent in special lines of inventive re-
search associated in the work.,
Among the great problems, to be
laid before the investigators, the Sec
Rotary mentioned submarine warfare,
adding that he felt sure that with
Mr.. Edisons wonderful brain to help
them the officers of the navy would
be able to meet this new danger with
new devices that will assure peace to
our country by their effectiveness.
In announcing tonight that he would
gladly accept Secretary Daniels invi-
tation, Mr.. Edison said he believed
the proposal so important that 1t
should be attended to now, when the
war in Europe was bringing before
the public the importance of encour.
