In newer fields, however, such as chemistry and plastics every new discovery is a stepping stone to dozens of others with no limit in sight in the expanding horizon of science.

4. The trend Is from the amateur to thi professional, from the Individual to the organized Inventive group. More and more Inventions result from planned attack by large Industrial laboratories. Despite the shift from individual to group workers in laboratories, the free lance inventor still tops the list a patent recipient. Of the patents issued in a year.

WORK CENTERED ON FINANCE PLAN Legislature Sifts Scheme To Raise $27,000,003 (By Associated Press) Trenton, April 8 New Jersey lawmakers, starting what appears to be their last week of action until after the May 21 Primary Election, focused attention today on a controversial $27,000,000 financing plan. Acting Senate President Charles E. Loizeaux Union), said measures to effect the $27,000,000 -plan would be put to a vote tonight in the Senate, where the plan originated.

If approved there, the bills would be shunted to the Assembly for action, possibly tonight but probably at a daytime meeting later in the week. Assembly Speaker Roscoe P. Mc-Clave Bergen), hesitated to predict how the Assembly would treat the plan. He has conceded merit to several of its provisions, but he also has expressed belief its enactment might result in a need for new taxes next year. The plan scrapes together currently available funds, principally by diversions from the highway budget, to provide $12,500,000 for 19 iO relief, allot $2,100,000 for aiding local schools, and to meet an impending $4,600,000 State deficit.

In addition, the plan contemplates a change In the formula under which municipalities receive State aid for unemployment relief and provides funds to meet an unpaid balance on the State's 1939 relief bill. Some legislators expressed belief consideration of the plan should be deferred until sessions were resumed after the election. Still others held the view that a recess should be delayed until the plan, or In substitute, was enacted. McClave expressed belief, however, that a recess would be begun later this week despite the passage or rejection of the Senate financing plan. FELLOWSHIP SOCIAL The Men's Fellowship of the First Reformed Church of Ridgewood will have a social meeting tonight at 8 o'clock when they will entertain the younger men of the church as their guests.

A varied program including musical entertainment, games, and contests has been planned by the program committee which consists of Herman Terhune, William Boote. nd R. Edward Dickinson.

INQUEST TOMORROW The girl's father, grocery market manager Barton Davis, was to receive a hearing on his demand for a writ of habeas corpus, to remove the girl from Juvenile Hall where she has been held on suspicion of murder since the quadruple slayings last Thursday. But Deputy Police Chief Homer Cross said the Police Department would file a petition asking that she be made a Juvenile Court ward. Such a step would delay a hearing on the writ, he added. Chloe was taken in custody after her mother, Lolita Davis, 36, her sisters. Daphne, 10, and Deborah Ann, 7, and her brother, Marquis, 3 were found bludgeoned in their home.

Calmly, she told questioners her mother had struck the three children, then had ordered Chloe to hit her with the hammer. The girl added that she struck Marquis, who was groaning, and gave her mother a razor to slash her wrists. Mrs. David died of loss of blood, the children of skull injuries. An inquest is set for tomorrow.

Davis's attorney, Mitchel Moi-del, criticized police with the statement, "The United States Supreme Court has held that relentless hours of questioning even on an adult con stitute one form of third To which Dr. Paul De River, police psychiatrist, replied: "She was treated with utmost consideration.
