NAYY DEPARTMENT ASKS AID
Secretary Daniels Urges That
Submarine Menace Be Met.
ADVISORY BUREAU CREATED
Great Inventor Agrees to Take
Cbarge of Civilian Board to Work
Out AVays of Perfecting
Fighting MacIUnery.
WEST ORANGE. N. J.. July 12.
Thomas A. Edison has accepted, an in
vitation from Secretary Daniels to
head an advisory board of civilian in
ventors for a bureau of invention and
development to be created in the Navy
Department.
His acceptance will go forward at
once to Washington, where the new
plans await word from the man "who
can turn dreams into realities."
Prominent Men to Aid.
Mr. Daniels" idea of utilizing the
Inventive genius of Americans in and
out of the military and naval service
to meet conditions of warfare shown
in the conflict on land and sea in Eu
rope is outlined in a letter written last
Wednesday asking Mr. Edison whether,
as a patriotic service to his country,
he would undertake the task of ad
vising the proposed bureau. The plan
is fo have several men prominent in
(pedal lines of inventive research as
sociated in the work.
Among the great problems to be
laid before the investigators the Sec
retary mentioned submarine warfare,
adding that he felt sure that with Mr.
Edison's wonderful brain to help them
the officers of the Navy would be able
"to meet this new danger with new
devices that will assure peace to our
country by their effectiveness."
Attitude Pleases Mr. Daniels.
"I have been - intending for some
time," Mr. Daniels said in his letter,
"to write to you expressing my admira
tion at the splendid and patriotic atti
tude you have taken, as reported in the
public press, in refusing to devote your
great Inventive genius to warlike sub
jects except at the call of your own
country. Such an attitude, in these all
too commercial times, is one that should
be an inspiration to our young men,
and a lesson in the pre-eminent right
of one's own country to the best that
its citizens have that will be of tre
mendous benefit to us all.
"I have deferred writing you, how
ever, because, at that time, I wanted
to take up with you another matter to
which I have given a great deal of
thought a matter in which I think
your ideas and mine coincide if an in
terview with you recently published in
the New York Times was correct. There
is a very great service that you can
render the Navy and the country at
larsre, and which I am encouraged to
believe you will consent to undertake,
as It seems to be in line with your own
thoughts.
Department of Invention Planned.
"One of the important needs of the
Navy, In my Judgment, is machinery
and facilities for utilizing the natural
inventive genius of Americans to meet
the new conditions of warfare as
shown abroad, and it is my intention, if
a practical way can be worked out. as
1 think it can be. to establish at th
earliest m n m n t a deno rt m -.e
vention and development to which all
i Ideas and suggestions, either from the
service or from civil Inventors, can be
referred for determination as to
whether they contain practical sugges
tions for us to take up and perfect.
"There are, unfortunately, no officers
now detailed who can take time from
ine mass 01 worK wnicn they are
called upon to do in order to devote it
fully to studying new suggestions and
Inventions.
"The department Is also unprovided
witn the best facilities for work of
pure experimentation and investiga
tion, with the exception of our testing
Fiauon at Annapolis, which Is, as yet.
a small affair. Most of all, as I have
said, there is no particular place or
particular body of men relieved of
other work, charged solely with th
duty of either devising new things
themselves or perfecting the crud
ideas that are submitted to the depart
ment by our naturally inventive people.
Edison Is Asked to Be Adviser,
'I have in mind a general plan of
organizing such a department which is
still hazy 'as to details, but which. In
a general way, meets, so far as th
r.avy is concerned, with your ideas o
such a department for the Governmen
in general. I want to use such faclli
ties for experimental and investigation
work as we have, under the direction of
men particularly selected for ability
shown In this direction, to whom would
be referred all suggestions of new de
vices sent into the department, and
would work out such ideas to a prac
tical point.
"What I want to ask is if you would
be willing, as a service to your coun
try, to act as an adviser to this de
partment, to take such things as seem
to you to be of value but which we
art not, at present, equipped to In
vestigate and use your own magnificent

LOVE TRIUMPHANT

PATH WHO TRIED MARK I AGE AT
SEA FINALLY WED DEO.
American Consul at Shanghai Per
forins Ceremony Delayed by
High Seas at Xevrport.
NEWPORT, Or., July 12. (Special)
Love at last has found a way in the
case of Dr. R. W. Donohoe and Mrs.
Cressey Warnock Hughes, both late
residents of Toledo, Or., who were mar
ried in Shanghai, China, a few days ago.
The young couple had tried In vain
to get married in this county, as Mrs.
Donohoe was the divorced wife of Allen
Hughes, of Astoria, and the legal in
terval had not elapsed. They chartered
the launch Ollte S. at Newport, intend
ing to go beyond the three-mile limit
at sea, where Captain Carner. master
of the vessel. would have officiated.
But fate was against them. The bar
was too rough to permit the launch to
pass out. and, as they intended to sail
a few days later for Shanghai, they
abandoned the attempt and went to
Seattle.
They sailed May 28 on a Japanese
steamer and would have been married
on board by the captain, but Mrs. Dono
hoe objected to a Japanese ceremony.
A letter received today by Mrs. Dono
hoe' s father, Robert Warnock. of To
ledo, said that they were in Japan and
soon would be in Shanghai, where they
would be married at the United States
Consulate upon their arrival.
Dr. Donohoe will practice dentistry
n Shanghai. He met his wife at Toledo
last Winter.

NORTHERN FRANCE. June 14.
(Special.) For at least a generation,
I suppose, no one will have the su
preme nerve to write romance about
the operations of this War. A few gen
erations hence, when time has made us
forget some of its plain slaughter and
Irt and horror, the romanticists may
be busy -with It, as they are busy now
with the Napoleonic wars. Some of the
brilliant young men now wallowing
about In the trenches, caring little at
present whether or no a bullet comes
to end their misery, may take their pens
in hand and turn It Into realistic fic
tion after the fashion of Zola's "La
Debacle. But not romance no, thank
you! It is Just about as romantic as
the pig-sticking room of the Chicago
Stockyards on a hot day.
On the other hand, there is enough
romance and to spare behind the lines.
All Europe, of course. Is In a state of
unprecedented upheaval. A good part
of Western Europe has run away to
find homes in parts of the world quite
strange and unknown to home-staying
people like the Belgians and the North
ern French. Families have become
hopelessly separated.
trusts; ! lew Appear.
Into this land of the little-traveled
have come bodies of stalwart young
men of breeds which the people of the
little villages have known only from
books before Turcos, Hindus, Sikhs,
Western Canadians. Americans, even
North American Indians. The peaceful
waters which surround France and
England have suddenly become seas of
monsters. Inhabited by steel fish
which shoot. The skies are peopled by
monstrous birds which drop death. A
little Journey across the channel now
adays or even a Journey by land In
the war zone has become an adven
ture, so that the "good luck" which
we customarily wish travelers upon
their departure really means something
nowadays. The romancer of the next
few years. If he only study his own
times, will not need much of an Imagi
nation.
Take the "missing heir" theme which
novelists used to love in the days of
the old three-decker. All over Europe
there are potential missing heirs, for

The situation was described In offi

High officials said the policy of the
American Government would be care

teat May He Avowed,
there was much Informal discussion
among officials of the content of the
German reply. The trend of their opla
lon was that the ration ot the Ameri

narrowed th field of negotiation so
that the next communication from the
United States must state to soma ex

further violated, and declare the posi

FROM what appeared to be a lull on
the western front has sprung sud
denly some of the moat severe fighting
in months, with the Germans the ag
gressors and victors.
The touches Cemetery, seven miles
north of Arras and hardly half that
distance southwest vf Lens, hss been
wrested from the French after a gr
man gas attack, followed by hand-to-hand
fighting with bomb and bayonet.
The French admit this loss and ar
fighting to regain the ground which
they had won at such heavy cost.
Slowly the French had been tlcbt

the strategic Importance of the Soucnea

Whether the British and French or
