Letter

West Orange, N. j., July 14-Thom.
as A. Edison has accepted an invita-
ton from Secretary Daniels to head
an advisory board of civilian inventors
for bureau of invention and develop
ment to be created in the department.
His acceptance will go forward at
once to Washington where the new
plans await word from the man "who
can turn dreamg into realities"
Mr.. Daniels idea of utilizing in
ventive genius of Americans in and
out of the military and naval service
to meet conditions of warfare shown
in the conflict on land and sea in Eu-
rope is outlined in a letter written
last Wednesday, asking Mr.. Edison
whether, as patriotic service to his
country, he would undertake the task
of advising the proposed bureau.
The plan is to have several men
prominent in special lines of invent
i've research 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..
Edison's wonderful brain to help them
the officers of the navy would be able
Ito meet this new danger with new
devices that will assure peace to our
country by their effectiveness"

on, and the bandits, realizing that the
sound of the shot would act as an
alarm, fed into the woods.
COL L. M. Brett, superintendent of
the park, said it was impossible at
that hour to estimate the amount
taken from the tourists. Names of
the victims had not been obtained
Soldiers from all parts of the park
were ordered by telephone to the scene
of the robbery and two suspects were
put underground. The bandits, after
holding up the stage, went into the
woods and are believed to be heading

GOVERNMENT CONSTRUCTION.

There is a good deal to be said for
the government construction of naval
vessels. and of munitions Of war gen.
orally on the ground that If this busi-
ness were entirely in the hands Of
the government the element Of private
profit would be eliminated from It,
and individuals would not be tempted
to stir up trouble in order that they
might benefit by reaping the profits
on the fighting equipment. 1t has
been shown that sinister influence
ofthis kind emanated from the Krupp
works in Germany, and 1T II quite
probable that there are to be found
men in all countries who are willing
to embroil their own and other ceun-
tries in war if it will only bring work
to their shop. If all the work Of this
class were to be performed directly
by the government this element would
be removed.
The United States government now
! carries on a considerable business IN
naval construction, and its bids are in
competition with those of private
concerns for the construction of the
two battleahips authorized by congress
at its last session. There ts to be
considered the question of what effect
the turning Of all this construction
over to the government would have

TWO BILLIoNs IN CORN.

Pittsburgh Dispatch: Thanks to
the exceptional october weather,
which reversed the pessimists. this
years corn crop is the most valua BILE
the United States ever grew, practical
ly a $2.O00,o0o,00o crop. Only once
has it been exceeded In size. three
years ago. but 1t IL 1s per cent larger
than last years and IA per cent larger
than the five-year average. Despite
its size and value. however, the quail
ity leaves much to be desired. owing
to unfavorable weather during the
year in many sections. That from the
surplus states and the northern states
is of inferior quality, but from the
south OF average goodness.
Perhaps the most striking feature
is the fact that this $4,000, 600, 900
crop Is due to the south's turning
from cotton to diversified agriculture.
That section increased its production
35 per cent and contributed 27 per
cent Of the whole crop. With the
derived from the fin-
ancial result of the change this year
the south may be looked to turn more
and more to other crops than cotton,
stabilizing the cotton situation and in
creasing our national production Of
foodstuffs. At the same time it will
bring the south into closer touch with
the rest Of the country in trade and
Industrial conditions and hasten its
fuller development.
