ment that might be harbored against
the modern theatre and the modern

"Wien the makers and producers

NE“? YORK, Oct. 20.—Thomas A.
Edison. electrical wizard. in one of
the first interviews he has ever
granted newspaper men, spoke
Thursday of the presidential possibili-
ties of his friend Henry Ford and de-
clared that it would "spoiln good
man" if the nation sent him to the
White House.
Mr. Edison expressed the opinion
that the automobile manufacture
was more valuable to thenation as
a private citizen. and then turned
to the prediction made recently by
Charles P. Steinmetz. invent-3r 'con-
ced with the General Electric
company. that electricity" eventual-
ly would reduce the "wroking day to
four hours. “fun this opinl): Mr.
Edison agreed. .
Mr. Edison however, was not
sure that the four ‘hour day would
be a. good thing for the nation. He
expressed fearvthat too large a lei-
sure class would be created and that
this would have a bad effect. rattl-
cularily on the young.
The interview. an important af-
fair held after Mr. Edison had ap-
peared as guest of honor at a ‘l‘nch-
eon by offical of the Edison

surrounded by a. group of barrage of
questions which he answered smil-
ingly.
Commenting on the unpopularity
of new ideas. Mr. Edison declared
that it took from seven to forty
years from the initial demonstration
of a beneficial device to its ulti-
mate acceptance.

writers." he said. laughing, "and
it took me seven years to convince

"'Why I have been advocating
