MANY PROMINENT
men MENTIONED.
May Join 7. A. Edison on Naval
Advisory Board.
DETAILS NOT YET COMPLETE

M utilization of the Inventive Genius
Of the Country to Cope With Prob
lens Of Warfare Meet With Approx
al by Officials of Both the Army and
Navy.
Washington, July Rehabilitation
of the inventive genius of the country
to aid in working out naval problems,
as proposed by Secretary Daniels, was
widely discussed by officials both of
the army and navy and the selection
of Thomas A. Edison as head of the
civilian advisory board met with unan-
imous approval. $50
Mr.. Edison, having consented to
take up the task presented to him as
a patriotic duty, Secretary Daniels
now is preparing to invite others
among noted inventors and technical
experts to join in the work. He would
not say yes or no to dozen names
submitted to him, declaring he would
make known the other members of
the advisory board only after their
acceptance had been received.
A statement Issued by Secretary
Daniels said:
-"I am not as yet prepared to an
nounce the full details of the plan.
These must be worked out in confer.
ence and the details perfected so as
to insure successful operation.
"An informal conference with the
chiefs of the bureaus of ordnance,
steam engineering and the construc-
ton and repair was held and expect
to be able to announce the organiza-
ton in a more definite way IN a very
short time. --.-
Numerous Names Suggested.
Among the names submitted to Mr..
Daniels as possible members of the
new board were those of Charles P.
Steinmetz, one of the worlds authori-
ties in electrical engineering; Hudson
Maxim, inventor and maker of guns
and explosives; Orville Wright, one
of two brothers who led the world in
aeroplane flights; Simon Lake, SUBJ
marine inventor; Lewis Nixon, ship
builder and former naval officer;
Alexander Graham Bell, inventor OF
the telephone; John Hays Hammond,
Jr., and R. A. Fessenden, radio COM
munication experts; J. B. Walker, edi-
tor of a scientific magazine and an in
ventor of note, and score of others,
many of them former navy officers
now in private life. ....-
Attention was called to an act of
congress prohibiting the acceptance
by the government of voluntary serv-
ices. AS there is no provision for
remuneration for the proposed board
it was suggested that law might prove
an obstacle and require a specific au-
thorization by congress. Mr.. Daniels
said he had not examined the law,
but he thought it would be possible
to avoid conflict with it. ~
II can ask advice of whom I
please he said. 1T is not necessary
that there should be definite and legal
objection.'' --.-.

FIVE ARE HURT IN WRECK
Broken Wheel Causes Derailment of
Seven Cars on Fast Train Near
Milwaukee.

Milwaukee.-Se cars were de-
rallied and five persons injured when
a front wheel on the baggage car on
the Milwaukee road Chicago to Mil
waukee flyer, No. 5, broke near the
lakewood station
Although going sixty miles an
hour when the wreck occurred the
train was brought to stop miracu-
lousy quick. The baggage car turn
ed half over and across the tracks
and the steel coaches, all clear of the
tracks, were at an angle of about
sixty degrees. One car turned over
and one remained upright 1t was
in the car that turned over that the
injuries occurred.
Steel coaches and hard, frozen
ground, were responsible for the
minor number of injuries and the
fact that no lives were lost.

troll his son, Albert, IL years old, the
boys father, Albert Hartmann, ST..

lam Milo, a neighbor, he found the

prevent chafng. Manacled in this
manner, and with the thermometer 26
degrees below zero, the boy had been
obliged to trudge considerable dis
lance to school, carrying the weight
in his hand
To remove the chain, it was neces-
