Woodward, is a method of extracting the in exhaustible electrical energy of the earth and distributing it among all civilized ' nations. "When my method of extracting electricity from the mineral veins of the earth is perfected." Woodward said, "all the wheels of industry, all the light and heat required to pro vide the luxuries required l>y a bil lion persons, will be furnished by storage batteries perpetually charged from beneath the earth's surface.” , Although an angle Woodward has not studied in his 25 years of ex- perimentation with harnessing the earth's untold electrical energy. he said he believed transmission of the power would be carried out by wire less. "I have no doubt,” the inventor of the electrical storage battery pro cess declared, "that within a few decades—possibly by tho time my Idea is developed to the practical stage — all long distance electrical transmission will be done by wire- less." At the present, Woodward believes hi» process has become practical for individual home use.

Although Woodward still guards closely the secret of his process, he said that several electrical engineers are familiar with his experiments and can testify to the reliability of his statements. W.oodward has for .18 years work ed iu mines of Colorado. Twenty- five years ago. he said, an accidental discovery of electrical energy emit ted by a rich vein of gold and sil ver ore. started him on the path of research which has led to his present announcement. "I am not at liberty at this time to tell much of my experiments," Woodward said. "Nor can I give the location of the ground where I have carried on my experiments and where I still am working. "Electrical energy conies from the rays of the sun, and is distributed throughout the earth. Naturally, the energy follows tile path of least resistance, and this path Is mineral iz'd. "Gold, silver and copper are natur al conductors of electricity, and therefore carry the largest charges. I have been successful in taking the electricity from such veins and stor ing It iu a battery. The earth offers an Inexhaustible supply of electrical energy—a supply that never cun fail."
