Getting Younger,
Says Edison; Discusses
Problems Oh The World

WEST ORANGE, Feb. 12. -
Thomas A. Edison, the young man"
of the electrical world, kicked over
his head today for the group of
newspaper men assembled for his
birthday interview, just to show
them that he is still a youngster.
II am doing more work than
ever" Mr.. Edison said. ''I am in
teresting myself in business theories
as well as mechanical and electrical
construction. But 1 am not spend
ing fortune on bum ideas. AS
| soon as I see a scheme is no good, !
! discard it,
| Mr.. Edison's answers to the news
paper mems questions were bold and
straight from the shoulder. In no
uncertain terms, he characterized
the navy as a "closed corporation"
During my years as president of
the Naval Consulting Board" he
said, II have offered forty-five in
ventions which would increase the
efficiency of the navy but no action
was taken on them. Naval officers
seem to resent ideas for the better
ment of the navy rather than well
come them"
What about the Ku Klux KIan,"
1.-THE Ku Klux Klan is entirely IN
American and should be wiped out"
he returned. 81 am confident it will
be-"
The electrical wizard approves the
British debt refunding scheme. How
ever, he laments the additional one
half per cent. upon which the United
States insisted.
THAT half per cent was the diff
ference between hard business and
sentiment" he said. ST am sorry we
chose business. but haven't any
complaint to make"
Are the French right in occup1
ing the Ruhr." asked his inquisitors.
Certainly. It is a simple matter
of business there is no need for
worry. The Germans are obviously
bad losers. My idea of a good loser
is England. The English are pretty
good sports"

GERALDINE FARRAR TAKES
STAND IN DIVORCE suit

NEW YORK, Feb. 12.-Geraldine
Farrar, former Metropolitan opera
star, took the witness stand today
in her suit for divorce from he1
actor-husband, Lou Tellegen, anG
testified that she had personally
verified the charges of misconduct
alleged in her petition.
The diva testified less than two
minutes, most of which she spent il
saying "yes" and mo" to technica'
questions put by her lawyer and the
referee. The high spots of her testi'
nony were the unelaborated state
ment that she had personally veri.
fed" Tellegen's intidelity and crisI
mo" to question whether she hac
condoned his acts.
Arthur Schwartz, counsel for Tel
legen, who is playing in the
West, did not cross-examine her. He
told reporters after the hearing that
it was Tellegen's wish.
"You know what Tellegen said
he commented, Quoting the actors
published attitude:
"Let the lady get her divorce"
