EDISON IN MYSTERY
FIGHT ON KAISER

! Orange, N. Y, Aug. s.-Thomas A.
Edison versus Germany.
This Is the battle that Is being
silently fought here today. A little
red brick building covered with ivy.
is the famous inventors laboratory.
II have no right to talk about it
ask the secretary of the navy" was
the message that came from the
closely guarded sanctum today In re-
Spouse to an inquiry on Edison's
work.
Edison is guarded like the presi-
dent. An iron fence. crowned with
menacing barbed wire, separates HIS
laboratory from the rest OF the place.
When Edison appears, a secret ser
vice agent dogs him.
"The old man." as he is known 70
his associates, has started out to beat
the Kaiser Just as methodically as
he started out to perfect electric
lights and monographs. Today when
he climbed from his dusty oliver"
and punched his time card-No. l.
IL registered $3.50 a. m. Yesterday
he plugged in at S:45 and out at
1890 a. m.-nearly sixteen hours
later.
War seemed distant from the little
red brick building today. 1t Is sur
rounded by fifty modern industrial
structures, crowded with $500 men
and women. making such peaceful
devices as motion picture machines
and storage batteries. But quiet
men with sharp eyes stood in every
doorway. Signs glared from every
side, warning employees against
leaking"
Inside the barbed rail with Edi-
son were a few confidential associ-
dressed, unshaven men
with deeply lined faces. Outsiders
had fleeing glimpses of them as they
darted past windows all in a tearing
hurry. The Kaiser would probably
give an army division for what these
men know.
Edison was in the greatest rush
Of all The detective at his heels had
to half trot at times to keep pace
with the man he was set to watch.

officially announced.

officially announced. ~
| President Wilson has informed the
new war Industries board that the
allies are to buy war materials in
this country on the same terms as
the United States. Blood profits"
are not to be tolerated.
The federal trade commission an
nounced today its report on copper
prices will be before the President in
two weeks.
The cut in steel prices will be from
500 ton and more, now paid by
the allies, to approximately $50 a
ton.
All purchases will soon be in the
hands of b. NJ. Baruch, as official
representative Of the allies. He is
now revising all contracts made in
this country to insure against blood
profits"
American efficiency, versus Ger

ton of allied money resources as we'll
as food and other supplies, will
bring an end to the great war by
December. 1918, military men today
predicted.
The American embargo will be fur

alien plans to secretly send a huge
loving cup-the gift OF pro-Germans

Washington, Aug. 7.--Germany
will make big peace move this fall,
officials here believe.
But they caution It probably will
be, as previously, made-in-Germany
peace which would place the Kaiser
in the light OF victory before his peo-
pie.
They admit this nation would lis
ten to serious bano fide peace pro-
posal now or any time, but from in
formation in government possession,
Germany has no intention of making
any such proffer and any she now
makes will have a joker somewhere
in It.
President Wilson discourages peace
talk at this time. He has let 1t be
known that America is in the war up
to the hilt and that even congression-
al peace debate now would only serve
to becloud the issue and hamper war
preparations.
Despite the apparent almost impos-
sible task Of crushing through the
west front with present tactics, war
department heads maintain conf
dence in the outcome. indicating to
observers that they probably have
some new tricks" in store for turn
ing that vast front. Some say the
end will come before 1919.
The government is about to lay
strong hand on war profiteering."
Prices on steel and copper are to be
fixed to insure reasonable profit"
to producers and fair bargain" for
this government and her allies. 1t is

Bye, CATALOGUE
Is OUT

Yesterday the Brigham Young col
lege catalogue was mailed to the
students and alumni of the school.
The bulletin announces a number of
new and interesting things in regard
TO the coming school year. A school
year of thirty-six weeks Is outlined,
commencing with the registration Of
students. September 20, and closing
with the Alumni reunion, June g..
Provision is made for only two sec
tions in first year work, and these
sections are to be kept small. One Is
10 provide for the large class OF train
ing school graduates put out last
spring, and the other for the students
who otherwise would not be able to
attend high school because of living
in districts far removed from these
advantages.
Then great improvement is to
be made by commencing the days
work at $3.50 instead of o'clock. as
previously This prevents any handi-
cap that used to be experienced be-
cause of the arrival of the interurban
ears. II shortens the day by one
hour period, giving only three labora-
tory periods. one in the morning and
two in the afternoon. Devotional is
10 commence at 9:25 and Is to pre-
sede theology. which is listed at 9:45.
The afternoon schedule Is to be as
usual.
A number of new teachers are list
cd for next year-just as many as
are leaving. When we consider that
more than a dozen first year classes
have been eliminated, we see that this
gives big strength in the teaching
force. Professor Willard Gardner, n
Pm. d. man, who has had wide expert
ence as a student and teacher both
at the A. C. and the University of
California, is to take the department
Of physics as left open through the
resignation of Prof F. A. Hinckley.
Prof. Geo. d. Casio comes from the
Agricultural college. He will teach |
in the field of economics, sociology
and public expression. Prof. Farley
A. Christensen comes from the Box
Elder High school. Mr. Christensen
n a graduate of the B. Y. c., and a
U. of u. man. J. f. Palmer comes
fresh from the University Of Utah.
He and Christensen are to occupy the
places left vacant upon the resigna-
ton OF Ellen r. Hinckley and Lottie
II. Kunz. A. Ladru Jensen is from
the Agricultural college, graduate
Of this year. He is scheduled in the
history department. Mary Carlisle.
Who expected to teach elsewhere, has
decided to remain and is scheduled |
IN the domestic science and English.
In the training school, three new
teachers are employed. j. E. Erick-
sen, Barbara Vaughan, and Aurilla |
Watkins are those selected. Venice
McAlister takes Lydia Hansen's |
place as private secretary to the pres
tdent. A number of new college |
courses have been added, not only In |
the normal department, but in other
as well. This will per-
NIT students to get as substantial
work for the first two college years
a. they can get anywhere.
