AMERICA’S PREMIER INVENTOR CONTENT: Edison Betrays Courage as Rare as His Genius in Ad- dressing Festival ‘HENRY FORD IS MY FRIEND’ Hoover, Wales, Hindenburg, Byrd, and Einstein Dearborn, Mich., Oct. 22.—(%)}— Having put behind him one of the most thrilling days of his life Thomas A. Edison was resting at “Fairlane,” the country estate of Henry Ford, today, preparing to return to his home in East Orange, N. J. When he leaves he will carry with ». him the memory of a tribute voiced “not only on behalf of the nation by President Hoover but literally from the far corners of the carth. It was a tribute paid in the pres- ence last night of some 600 notable guests invited by Henry Ford to join in honoring Edison on the fiftieth anniversary of his perfection of the incandescent ‘ight. It had as its general setting the early American village Ford has constructed on his Dearborn property. To Edison, given the scat of honor at the speakers’ table despite the presence of the president of the president of the United States—an honor rarely accorded a citizen—it was an hour of supreme happiness. It required all the genius of Edison to stand up in the flood of light of his own making and acknowledge the tribute. Several times during the brief acknowledgment Edison came near the breaking point. But he started in bravely, wavered a bit and carried on, and with a resounding “good night” betrayed a courage as rare as his inventive genius. Edison Is Contented Edison is content if he has widened t the horizon of men’s understanding and given a measure of happiness to the world. At a dinner in his honor attended by President Hoover last night the inventor said: Mr. President, ladies and gentle- men: I am told that tonight my voice will reach out to the four cor- ners of the world. It is an unusual opportunity for me to express my deep appreciation and thans to you all for the countless evidences of your goodwill. I thank you from the bot- tom of my heart. “I would be embarrassed at the honors that are being heaped on me on this unforgettable night were it not for the fact that in honoring me you are also honoring that vast army ot thinkers and workers of the past, and those who are carrying on, with- out whom my work would have gone for nothing. “If I have spurred men to great efforts and if our work has widened the horizon of man’s understanding even a little and given him a meas- ure of happiness in the world, I am content. Americans Are Sentimental “This experience makes me realize as never before that Americans are sentimental, and this crowning event of light’s golden jubilee fills me with gratitude. “As to Henry Ford, words are in- adequate to express my feelings. I can only say to you that, in the full- est and richest meaning of the term he is my friend. “Good night.” , Having led a nation in paying trib- ute to tue genius of s A. son on the golden jubilee of the in- vention of the incandescent lamp, President Hoover movec-on today to Cincinnati to participate in the dedi- cation of a monument commemorat- ing the reopening to navigation of an improved Ohio river. To all appearances, the President pnd Mrs. Hoover were none the worse for the drenching they received yes- terday as they mo‘ored from Dear- born to Detroit and return in an open automobile through a driving rain to be acclaimed by hundreds of thousands and to receive the formal welcome of the State of Michigan from Governor Fred Green.

Those words were at the conclusion of his short address, when he said, addressing himself to Mr. Edison, ia | Whose honor he was on the air: “Good night, my American friend.’ The famous scientist's speech, very poorly heard in America, dhe to faulty jreception, follows in part: “Your construction of the electric incandescent lamp has to a great cx- tent made the development of a great electrical industry possible. “The great technical creators of which you are one of the most suc- cessful have produced in the course of a century an entirely new situa- tion to which mankind has not yet adapted himself. The great creators of future generations probably will be organizers whose task will be to see that such technical powers no longer serve the purposes of war but of economic security and the libera- tion of mankind.” Dr. Einstein's speech was received Monday evening shorfly after nine p. m., E. S. T. in America, but duc to the six hours difference in time between Berlin and Eastern America it was not delivered here until 3 o'clock this morning. 29 OF NEW NURSES ' TOOK COURSES HERE St. Alexius and Bismarck Hos- pital Graduates Pass the State Examinations Numbered among the 140 who passed the recent state nurses’ exam- inations at Bismarck and Fargo were 29 graduates of the nursing schools of two Bismarck hospitals.

STUTSMAN SEEN AS CHAIRMAN OF BOARD Precedent Set by Davis Ap- pointment May Be Followed in Recent Naming Political rumors are afloat that & precedent, established when J. E. Davis was made chairman of the state board of administration shortly after he took office, will be followed when W. H. itutsman becomes a member of the state workmen's compensation bureau next month. Stutsman succeeds J. E. Kiley who resigned recently to accept another . Kiley was chairman pro tem of the beard and Stutsman is expected in some quarters to fill that place also. Under the law the state commis- stoner of agriculture and labor is chairman of the board and he pre- sides at its formal sessions, To ex- pedite the business, however, the board is in continuous session, the three appointive members taking care of the detailed work coming before the body. It is this board which does most of the actual work and the chairmanship of it has been the sub- ject of some argument in the past. Although one of the veteran ap- pointive members of the board is an Independent, it is expected that the members will turn to Stutsman to serve in the post of chairman pro tem.

He pointed to the Land O° Lakes Creamery association and the Cen- ltral Cooperative Livestock associa- {tion as examples of successful co operatives and said plan similar association embra growers woul be offered the jboard. The $6,000,009 coopera- tive organization, he said, would provide farmers with a central selling organization and a credit for financing the crop can be built up if a revolving fund is pro- vided by the federal farm board. “Under the federal farm board's plan,” he said, “the farmers’ elevators are called on to put up the money through purchase of stock in the na- tional marketing agency, but have lit- tle voice in the operations. if we are forced to ship to cooperative pools or selling agen like the Farmers Union Terminal association we will oppose that pian. ‘Therefore we a sired to set up our own cooperative organization and to place ourselves in a position to market through our own organization.” Corn Husking Crown Sought in Minnesota .
