AIDINVENTORS, PROFESSOR' PLEA Thinks Stimulation Lies in Better Selections : 8t. Louls, Dec. 28 (P~—"Probably the greatest opportunity for improv- ing our present technique of stimu- lating invention lies in earlier and Dbetter selection of potential inven- tors,” Hornell Hart, profegsor of sociology at Bryn Mawr college, sald in an address prepared for d livery today at the opening session of the annual convention of the American sociological soclety. The soclety, with seven economic and political organizations, opened a four day joint program here to- day. Harts' speech was based on an analysis of data relating to 171 in- ventors, “The young people given the best opportunities for resegrch are often selected in & quite casual, or at'least unscientitic way," he said. “Much of our best potential inventive ea- pacity is miseducated in atereotyped schools and brow-beaten intq psy= chopathic conditions by resistence and resentment againat their at- tempts at innovation in childhood." Hart sald the analysis ahowa that inventors “have had a very marked tendency to tenacity, persistency and even obatinacy,” and that ingen- ulty, keen intelligence and insight take second place compared to those qualities, “About a third of the iventors were either self-taught or had only a grammer school education,” he sald, “but the tendency in recent years has been toward the higher education of a larger and larger proportion.” Among circumstances that serve as deterrents to inventors, Hart list- ed poverty, ridicule, lack of equip- ment, initial failure, infringement of patents, family opposition and de- struction of models, with poverty leading the list. He placed ridicule next. Fllen Deborah Ellis of Mt. Holy- | oke college, holds that during recent years political theory has been so | increasingly “under bondage to the | lawyers” that it is little wonder that | a great reaction has come gnd that | in thelr determination to find the | reality behind the formal Juristic conception, thinkers are now repu- | dlating not only the legal but even | the political character of the state. Her opinions were expressed before the American political science asso- | lation. ? “Political acience is at the parting | of theways,’ she said. “Its founda- tions have been undermined by the claims of law and jurisprudence, in- to whose hands it has been deliber- ately surrendering itself for the past Jialt century er more, and now its chief strongholds are under fire from the neighboring flelds of so- ciology, economics and ethics. “So severs and 8o persistent have these attacks become that the time | has arrived when the political scien- tist must decide whether he will give the fight and allow his subject to be absorbed in any one or all of these Various flelds, or attempt fo roes'; tablish 1t as a distinctive discipline.” | ‘Annie Oakley Left Estate | Valued at Half Million Newark, N. J., Dec. 28 (A—Annle Oakley, internationally famoua markswoman, and Frank E. Butler, her husband, who died within 18 days of each other in Ohio last month, left more than $500,000 to relatives and charitable insfltu!i?ns!, under the provisions of their wills filed for probate yesterday. They for- merly lived here. Mrs. Butler's will provided for be- quests ranging from $1,000 to $3,- 000 to 26 relatives scattered about the United States. The residuary es- tate went to her husband who sur- vived her for 18 days. He gave from $1,000 to $5,000 to each of eight im- mediate relatives and the residue of his wife's estate to her brother, sis- ter and half-sister, to be divided equally. The residue of Butler's es-| tate went to three nieces of his wife.

VERY SATISFACTORY ‘White House Statement Agrees That Country Is Fundamentally Sound. Washington, Dec. 28 (®—Without, discussing the future, the white house today pronounced America in a fundamentally sound condition, President Coolidge is well pleased with the situation at the end of the old year, although he is making no forecasts. Secretary Davis of the labor de- partment today informed him that the opportunities for employment seem to be increasing notably in the east. The president feels that the coun- try is well supplied with capital, with skilled labor, with natural re- sources and with raw materials. Manufacturing is golng on at more than the ordinary rate, he under- stands, and transportation is moving rapidly. Mr. Coolidge feels no one can tell when these conditions will change. It was recalled at the white house today that before the present year began many experta belleved a de- pression likely, but that on the con- trary ‘tho year proved one of the most prosperous in history. Mr. Coolidge realizes that some farm commodity prices are not so high as a year ago, but he belleves that this is an offset in part for the gains in the previous three years.
