Edison has from time to time issued questionnaires. Now, he has consented to become the interrogated has BCTeed to lay bare his half-century of effort to give the world perfect Recreation of music. In plain, untechnical words, Mr. Edison here tell3 how he ha3 made a marvelous musical instrument with all the painstaking care and individual detail of a Stradivarius Violin.

The questions asked Mr. Edison were: Ques. Do you take advantage of the economies of mass production in tho making of your phonograph? Ans. I consider the New Edison Phonograph a musical instrument, and not a machine to be made in the-manner of automobiles, cheap furniture or other things in which uni--form quality is not a prime Ques. Isn't it possible to make instruments of Edison quality by mass" production? Ans.

No greater proof of the fallacy of this, as far as phonographs and other musical instruments are concerned, can be offered than the vain, efforts of violin manufacturers to make violins of Stradivarius quality by mass production. For although every part of the instrument may be exactly alike as to size, unless there -is the individual human touch, there, is bound to be a variation in tone quality. Ques. How can the layman tell the difference between a phonograph made by mass production and one made by craftsmen? Ans. Anyone is apt to be satisfied with existing conditions until he hears something better; may excuse distorted tone for want of a superior instrument.

But when an ordinary phonograph turned out in quantity is compared side by side with one in which human hand work has played its part, the glaring difference instantly is apparent. Ques. What do you consider the truest test of phonograph quality? Ans. There is no measure of tone Suality like the human ear. For lis reason I urge comparison between the New tdison and other-phonographs.

To this end, I have, advised every Edison dealer to place without obligation to the prospec--tive buyer the New Edin in any home where comparison with other-types of phonographs is desired. Quts. How would you describe the; tone of the New Edison Phone, graph? Ans. It is sheer nonsense to speak of the tone of a phonograph or of ita resonance. A phonograph should have no tone ot its own.

The in? strument should be only a medium of Re-Creation. Obviously you should be unconscious of it and hear only the beautiful music it Re- Creates. I worked for five years and spent more than $3,090,000 in experimental work to remove any false tone from the New Edison. Even when" myself, was satisfied with the results I did not stop there. I insisted that the New Edison be submitted nnhlirlv to the test of side bv side' sent into China, adding that the outlook at Shanghai was MRS.

Federal search for him had been in vain until about a week ago, when he walked into the Ignited States Marshal's office in Milwaukee and surrendered. EN ROUTE TO S. F.

When he escaped he was being brought to San Francisco by Deputy United States Marshal George Hay-den and Roy Johnson, a guard, of Milwaukee. He had been given permission to go into the smoking compartment of the Pullman car. Johnson said he watched the door, believing Schybinger could not escape from the moving train. When he failed to return after some minutes, however, Johnson went to investigate, and found that the prisoner was prone. He had slipped to the vestibule of the car, lifted the floor board and swung from the train as it entered Berkeley.

The Federal officers, aided by police, searched for Schybinger, but could find no trace of bin). Hayden and Johnson then came to San Francisco, empty-handed, and reported the escape to United State Marshal Fred Esola. WAS UNNERVED. Schybinger, according to his guards, had become unnerved when he learned en route that Attorney Kenneth M. Greene, whom he had depended upon to defend him, died last August.

Schybinger was an engineer's helper on the Shawnee when the Quadra was Beized near here about two and a half years ago. In the extensive litigation which followed, Schybinger, then out of the Coast Guard, testified for the defense. In describing the position of the Shawnee at the time, his testimony so differed from that of other witnesses that his indictment for perjury was obtained.
