Edison, in hie labora- tory in West Orange, N. 1., on Wednesday expressed confidence in the success of his latest invention, practical storage battery for power -propelled cars, which is de - reined to solve the'traffic problem in large cities. His scheme is to place these batteries under the seats of ears, and he says they can be sufficiently obarged at the ex- isting power house to run lin en- tire day continuously. "No addi- tional tracks, poles or power houses will be required," added. Mr. Edison, "and the needs of fu- ture transit facilities can be eco- nomically eared for by the new battery ear& 'They will run one bemired melee without reeharging and will even utilize the roachinery which -brings the ear to a stop for the recharging. The oars will run on any rail, the present street car tracks or steam rails, and if they sump the tracks can get back on the rails with their own power."
