Young Stokes {8 an exceptionally bright boy and is considered something of an expert in wirele: When only twelve he appeared before a ongressional committee and electrified @ number of elderly statesmen by his lucid and precocious plea for the rights of amateur wireless experimenters. At the time a bill prohibiting amateur in- veatigators from setting up and opera- ting wireless stations was under consid- eration. ‘The lad has had a complete wireless plant on the roof of the Ansonia for several years and when only twelve perfected a wireless telephone system which experts belleve may yet have some practical value.
