ing practically nothing to run, and
lurnishing any and all purposes—a
power which would win the war and
revolutionize civilization—is the mod
est claim pul forth by the inventor, an
Armenian, Garibed Garrigossian.
There is nothing novel in the id*
; vent of crank persons claiming the
solution of perpetual motion and sim
ilar problems. The patent office hac
its bars up against them continuosly.
If it were merely a man claiming tc
have gathered in Dow'er like moonshine
the incident w'ould not be worth re
cording.
Hut the remarkable thing about this
! case is that the inventor is able to
1 make people believe him—people who
ordinarily would detect a crank at 40
rods. The inventor of the “Garibed/'
as he calls it, has convinced the House
Committee on Patents, securing from
this committee unanimous recommen
dation for legislation which is to place
l his invention on trial. Not only this,
but the House of Representatives has
passed the bill; the Senate has passed
the bill; and then after the President
had given it a pocket veto, forgetting
it in the press of other impoitant af
fairs, the House and Senate have
passed the bill a second time, and the
legislation is now in conference with
every prospect that it will presently
be in form to go again to the Presi

dent for his signature.
The inventor asks no funds from
the government, either for experimen
tal or other purposes. The invention
is to placed at the disposal of the
government for use without charge.
He does ask, however, that the gov
ernment protect him for the usual
penod of 17 years in his rights to
control the commercial use of his in
vention.
It is stipulated in the proposed leg
islation that a committee of five emi
nent scientists be appointed by the
President to witness the test. If the
scientists are not satisfied with the
demonstration, the legislation is to be
come null aud void. Nobody has lost
anything except the inventor.
The claims of the inventor sound
like the tales of The Arabian Nights.
What he has is as new, he says, as
wireless telegraphy was new before
it was discovered, or electricity itself
before it was mastered.
It is a power equally marvelo is.
equally powerful, and much more
simple to use. It will run ships, air
planes, automobiles, factories, or sub
marines. The winning of the war
would be easy by a nation equipped
with this new force against armies not
so equipped.
Foreign nations have been curious
about the matter, and when President
Wilson forgot to sign the bill passed
last session, it is recorded that the
inventor received offers from repre
sentabvts o1 the aHies in. Washington.

give the government another chance
