Why Harvey Goes
Still Unrebuked

'Tf Mr.. Harvey, Ambassador 10
the court Of st. James, represented
in his address at the Pilgrims din
ner the spirit and purposes Of Amer
lea in its entrance into the World
War correctly, then we have des-
cended to the vulgar standards Of a
nation Of shopkeepers. l cannot un-
derstand why it remains unrebuked
by the administration, by the Presi-
dent who promised repeatedly before
his election, that the United States
would enter some kind of an asso-
citation of nations."
In these words the Rev. DIR. e. l..
Powell, pastor Of the First Christian
Church, of Louisville, in an address
delivered at the weekly luncheon of
the Lions Club at the Hotel Henry
Watterson, expressed what he term
ed the views of a non-partisan on
Harvey's remarks, of a man "who
cares not fig for political parties,
but who cares everything in the
world for the ideals of the country"
DR.. Powell said ip beginning his
talk that he wanted to discuss what
was the matter with the country.
"There is something the matter" he
insisted. Fright now there can be no
denial that it is in discontented,
dissatisfied, querulous, complaining,
and in a very large way rebellions
mood" This mood, he continued, is
reflected in the wave of crime that
has swept over the United States.
Searching for the causes of this,
Doctor Powell gave as the first the
reaction from war regulations, from
military government and control.
Men of the country, he said in IL
Iustration. are like colt that has
been kept in the paddock. When
he is turned out he wants to kick
up his heels.
The Mt. Sterling advocate., 1921-06-23
Didn't Repudiate League

Second of the causes of this mood
mentioned was the disillusionment
that has come to the country and to
business over the end of the war. It
was under this head and just after
declaring that 1--WE fought, if we
fought for anything, for the main
tenance and preservation of moral
IDEALS" that Doctor Powell express
ed himself in such scathing terms
about Harvey.
He also took exception to Har-
vey's statement that 100000 Amer
leans voted against the League of
Nations last fall The Republican
majority was due to general de-
sire throughout the country for re-
turn to normal industrial and eco
nomic conditions, especially in con-
nection with a readjustment of labor
conditions, and in no sense was en-
tirely reputation of the League
of Nations, Doctor Powell insisted.
Too much paternal legislation was
the third cause enumerated by DR..
Powell for the country's mood. "Pa-
ternal legislation" he declared, SIS
doing more to destroy initiative and
resourcefulness in the United States
than any other influence" The best
thing that the government of the U.
S. and Congress could do for bus
mess would be "to let it CO." he con-
tinued, showing that this excess of
paternahsm surely is REFLECTED in
recklessness. "We don't want the
government to put US in baby car
riage and push US through the
street." he insisted.
"An excess of moral legislation"
was the fourth cause, enumerated by
DIR. Powell. "There isn't anything in
the field of personal responsibility
that isn't sought to be regulated"
he declared, "and every once in
while some new reformer jumps us
and tries to tell us what we should
do"
eff we don't cease trying to make
people good by law" he continued,
holding that such an effort could be
justified only when it was made for
the benefit of society in general, 1--WE
shall cease to be a republic. We"ll
have bureaucracy that will try to
regulate women's skirts and mems
trousers. We1l go back to the Puri-
tan regime. And I resent it,"
Coming more specifically to what
is the matter with Louisville, DIR.
Powell said that for efficient ad-
ministration of our criminal courts
we had to have good judges, good
Commonwealth Attorney and a good
Chief of Police. "For judges we've
got to have men like Judge Robin
son - absolutely unafraid, alive to
his responsibilities, faithful to his
duties.

"We've got to have a Common

Mirror or Window.

It appears that some time ago there
was invented mirror that can be
made translucent at will, so that when
placed In a show window it at first re-
fleets the faces Of persons looking IN,

ur,on the spectators see the contents
Of the window In place Of their own

of a thin film on the back of the glass,
