Inventor, Proud of Appar-
ent Success in Safeguard
ing Crews from Deadly
Chlorine, Urges Device
Be Given Hard Trial in
Actual Service.

West Orange, y. j.. Aug. % Re-
joicing over the confidence expressed
by naval officers that his new storage
batteries would make United States
submarines the most efficient in the
world, Thomas A. Edison nevertheless
expressed the wish to-day that final
judgment be withheld pending the out
come of practical tests in the U. s. S
Ed.
As a result of tests in laboratory
apparatus Stimulating the rocking &C
tion Of a boat at the Now York Navy
Yard the technical officers there have
expressed the conviction that the dan
ger from the deadly chlorine gas peril
which now prevails in submarines, will
be obviated.
They also believe that on account OF
the superior compactness and hghtness
of the new battery, combined with
greater capacity. it will be possible to
increase materially the undersea cruis-
ing range of Uncle Sans submarines
In addition to this. they look for great
or speed. counting on an all-around in
crease of 40 per cent in the strategical
efficiency of the boats.
Wants Actual Service Test.
"Of course, that is very good news
Edison said when he was told OF the
naval experts enthusiasm over his bat
terv. after thirteen months laboratory
test; but let no judgment be passed
until the battery has actually been
placed and used on submarine. Then
f il proves successful and adds to the
bcalthfulness OF our crews below the
sea and Is an asset to the navy. my
work on it shall not have been IN vain.
The first intimation to the public
that Edison had turned his genius to
solving the problem of submarine
navigation came at visit he made with
Secretary of the Navy Josephus Daniels
% the New York Navy Yard several
months ago. The battery tests were
then in progress.
At that time Edison made an even
more startling prediction. He said that
10 his mind there was no reason why
the undersea boats should not be sup
plied with a fish-gill-like apparatus, so
that they could draw their supply of
air directly from the water, instead OF
the lives Of their crews being de-
nendent upon the compressed air sup
rlv or on the ability of the boat 10
reach the surface.
II this was perfected, he pointed out
the danger of submarine navigation
would be reduced to a minimum. There
have been reports since that time that
he was making progress on such de-
vice. but no definite announcement has
been made yet.
Made $1,000 Experiments.

sad respects to their deceased friend.
The body remained at the Pou under

at the familiar features. At o'clock
in the afternoon, Rev. John H. Brown
in charge, the funeral services were
conducted.
In this connection, friends who were
present at the time of Capt. Slo-
cumb's death, desire that it be made
known he was not found dead in bed,
as the police report made out. Mrs.
Katy Mitchell who. was present when
the last fatal spell seized him, said
that he died with his head on her
breast, and that it was not true the
coroner had viewed the remains at
her home. She asked that the above
be mentioned out of sympathy for
Capt Slocumb.

Captain Buzukiz has been in Mont

likes the city and the people, and
should he be successful in passing
through the European conflict unin-

he served in many of the largest bat
ties of that conflict, including the fall
of Saloniki, Jannani and in Mace

GREEK OFFICERS
WILL Be CALLED
HOME TO COLORS
ACCORDING TO NEWS PRINTED
IN MONTGOMERY PAPER,
KING CONSTANTINE HAS IS
SUED EXPECTED CALL.

According to the Advertiser of
Montgomery, certain Greeks are to
called to the colors. At least one is
to go from Montgomery, but as far as
can now be ascertained, none in PEN
sacola are affected by the order. The
Advertiser yesterday printed the fol-
lowing:
Greeks Are Called.
King Constantine, of Greece, has
issued the long expected call for
veterans of the Balkan wars for serv-
ice with their country in the great
European conflict now waging. The
first call came several days ago for
officers with experience in the Balkan
wars. Eighteen of these are to meet
in New York the latter part of this
week, and sail for their native land.
Nick Buzuliz, one of the chefs at
the B. and B. cafe, a captain in the
army in the second Balkan war, is the
only Montgomery Greek affected by
the call for officers. Captain Buzukiz
stated last NIGHT that he has made
every preparation to leave Montgom-
cry this evening at o'clock, although
his employers are endeavoring to
have him delay day or two. The
captain says that eighteen other of
ficers viii sail with him from New
York for Greece ready for active
service.
According to members of the local
Greek colony, King Constantine
claims to have an army of 100000
men under arms, and that his call at
this time is merely for a quota of
officers to handle this army. Some
time ago Greece issued call for her
soldiers of the class of 1915, but this
call did not reach any of the local
Greeks. When the class of 1916 is
called, and local Greeks are expecting
