"The dlanibnd disc and chemicals." he quickly replied. He amplified this by saying.that he now has nine plants turning out car bolic acid and Its biproducts, with prospects of a tenth in the near future. Allle Will Win Wax. Referring to th European war, Mr. Edison said: The allies will win, but the war will last two years longer.

"Man isn't perfect yet, and you can not take alcohol away from him all at once," he said. "If you do he will re sent the act.

" The cigarette, of all things material, has th Edison stamp of disapproval. , JH: Xs"Por Suffrage. "I'd hav law enacted and prosecute everyone under 21 years of age smok ing them." he declared. "I would just as soon, see a man with a revolver as aT boy with a cigarette." Mr. Edison is an ardent advocate Of suffrage for women. "Women will vote," he said. "I favor a national law on th subject. Th instincts of women are good and. they will have their voice in government. Mr, Edison's eyes twinkled as he smilingly added: ' ; - "Theyll have their way.
