No traction official has made any
promises which are not included in

INVENTOR s
/. ILLNESS A
MYSTERY

Mystery continues TO surround
the Illness which overlook Lester
J. Hendershot OF Pittsburgh, in
ventor of the so-called fuelless
motor, who was removed from q
patent attorneys office late Tues
day afternoon to the Emergency
Hospital.
Emphatic denial Of rumors that
"2, 900 volts of electricity had
passed through his body during an
accident" were made today by the
management of the Washington
Loan and Trust Building where the
accident is supposed to have Oc-
CURED.
There is no such voltage avail
able in the building" the superin-
tendent declared, land besides /

and he appeared i'll. DIR. William
B. Marbury, the police surgeon,
and a man whom / took to be j.
Barr Peat, the Pittsburgh million
aire who is backing Hendershot's
invention. were supporting him on
either side"
Why there is so much mystery
about the affair is the biggest mys-
terry of all, according to those who
have investigated it. The patent
attorney in whose office it has been
definitely established that Hender-
shot collapsed shortly after
o'clock Tuesday afternoon, refused
to either confirm or deny rumors
that Henderson, became i'll at q
party in his office.
His condition today at Emergency
Hospital was reported unchanged.
Since arriving in Washington last
week both Henderson, and Peat
have clothed their movements with
the utmost secrecy.
1t is reported that the Guggen.
helm Foundation for the Promotion
of Aviation has turned down
MEMBERSHIPS invention. The GuR-
genheim group is the one with
which Col Charles Lindbergh. who
has been investigating Memberships
claims, is associated.
Hendershot claims to have In
vented a motor which derives its
power from the same force which
pulls the magnetic needle OF
compass to the north. He declared
that he made the discovery while
trying to perfect a perfect earth
inductor compass.
Information from West Elizabeth,
Pa. suburb of Pittsburgh where
the wife and mother of Hendersho
live, indicated that they had heard
nothing of his illness. They only
knew that he was in Washington
in connection with his invention.
