lawyers and clergymen were invited to
participate in the discussion. Messrs.
Rle3hardson, spillman: and nGallaghan
sponded. County Attorney Richardson
spoke for ideal citizenship and the en-
forcement of law, which will never be
attained until officials are sustained by
public sentiment.
Mr.. Spillman commended that commu.
mites cannot afford to wait for public
sentiment, and if officials fail to exc:
cute the laws, proceed to convict fol-
malfeasance in office. Mr.. Callaghan
took neutral ground, desiring an edu
of existing laws, but believed there
are too many on the statute books an0
too little care in enforcing them.
Rev. Mr.. Curtis discussed methods
for securing higher ideals of Christian
citizenship, citing a scriptural parable

wrongfully traduced and good, mora

criticized. "Stand by your honest mel
