new ARCHBISHOP
IS INTERVIEWED
He Talks on Disarmament,
Religion, Styles and
Prohibition
SHOULD RESPECT
THE DRY LAW

ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla.-Bishop NJ.
J. Curley, who. as the new Arch
bishop Of Baltimore, will take over
a part Of the duties Of the late Car
dinal Gibbons. in the first interview
given since his appointment, hit
straight from the shoulder on topics
Of national Importance.
Here's what he said:
Disarmament relieving h e
shoulders of the people of the tax
load now being placed upon them
by the preparations for another war,
lis an excellent thing. II arranged
for by mutual agreement among the
great nations it will be a great bless
ing. do not think, however, that
America should set an example Of
disarmament, hoping for other ma
tlons TO follow.
1T pleaSes me to see that the lead
in settlement Of the worlds peace is
being taken by our president. It
will be remembered, however, that
almost this same proposition was
suggested by the pope three years
ago"
immortality always has been and
always will be. Possibly II has been
intensified following the last war.
Evils are not to be condoned or made
light of, but are to be combatted to
the best OF the nations ability. AS a
remedy. the rising generation should
be taught religious and moral prt o.
ciples. Religious teaching is the
R greatest need of the present day"
with a humorous twinkle in his
eye. the archbishop-elect said:
The present day styles are toe
+ sHORT-lived for me to bother with. '
Prohibition.
Its the lawl The people made
it and now they must abide by and
respect it,"

BALL rent Law
KEPT in FORCE
Congress Adopts Bill to
Continue Regulation OF
Gouging Landlords
is NOT SOCIALISM,
SENATOR BALL SAYS
specIal % rhe EveninE journal.

Special to The Evening Journal.
WASHINGTON. d. c.. Aug. IT,
Senator Ball. OF Delaware. has re-
received hundreds of letters and
messages congratulating him on the
adoption OF his bill extending the
life Of the rent commission for the
District OF Columbia. An elderly
woman who has twice been saved
from eviction through invoking the
provisions OF the Ball law thought
she owed the Senator a kiss. but
Senator Ball blushingly waived pay
ment OF the debt.
The Senator had a hard fight to
save his bill He watched II con-
tinuously from the time il was given
right OF way. the latter part OF last
v eek, until the vote was taken. He
made a number OF converts during
the progress OF the debate.
Some Senators intimated that the
bill was socialistic and declared that
they were surprised to see Della
warean fostering such a measure.
Senator Bails reply to this kind Of
criticism was that he was opposed
to interference by the Government in
private business, but the landlords
had chosen TO take advantage OF a
famine in houses to gouge the poor
and the helpless and had thus
created an emergency which justi-
fed Congress in taking drastic mea-
sures
IF this Is socialism, then make
the most OF IT," Senator Ball said
I want the Government divorced
from business, but think when
business Of any kind becomes op-
pressive II is time for the Govern
ment to step in and say so far shalt
thou go and no farther The people
are entitled to protection. Moreover,
the Supreme Court, a great tribunal
which nobody would have the tenn
Gritty TO say is either socialistic in its
personnel or its rulings. has declared
my bills to be constitutional"

King Peter was rs years old,
white e-haired, deaf. I'll from inirmi-
ties OF age and suffering from the
wounds OF three or more wars, re-
linquished the cares of state in 1919
when his second son, Crown Prince
Alexander, succeeded him and be-
came the ruler OF the new state of
Jugo-Slavia- He then declared:
my beloved Serbia Is now free,
and its future, believe. will be
great one. My work is over 1
desire only the continued affection
finally, a grave on Serbian soil"
Despite his age, King Peter pre-
sented one of the most courageous
figures of the war. On the day that
Serbia rejected the Austrian de-
mands, Peter renounced his tenn
porary abdication Of the throne, and
placed himself once more at the
head OF the country. He was even
then almost sightless and hard of
hearing, and was under the constant
care OF a physician.
When the fortunes OF war turned
against the Serbians he remained
with his armies until practically the
last units had been driven from the
country. He then effected an escape
through Albania and went to So
loniki where he presided over the
reorganization of his forces. After

active part in the direction of his
nomadic government.
Early in 1919 the aged King was
removed to a quiet retreat near
Athens. Greece, where he lived in a
small six-room house overlooking
the Bay of Phaeleron. A personal
secretary and his physician were
his only companions. He had only
one diversion. an occasional early
morning ride around the Greek
capital in the side car OF a motor
cycle driven by Serbian soldier.
To avoid the gaze of crowds he dis
gused himself with a mask and a
pair OF goggles. Later his health
became 30 feeble that he passed
most OF his time in bed or a wheel
chair.
When a correspondent called to sec
him in May. 1919. the King consented
10 carry on conversation only through
the person Of the Serbian Minister TO
Greece. II was the last interview
granted by the former ruler Of the
Serbs. Croats and Slovenes. To meet
his long cherished wish that he
might die on his native soil, the
Serbian authorities in 1920 brought
the invalid King back to his be-
loved Belgrade. He avoided society,
however. and kept aloof from all
court and public functions.
King Peter was tall. erect and
muscular. and in spite Of his age. had
the appearance OF a much younger
man. HE had all the rugged quail
tiles OF one sprung from the soil,
wrote one biographer. He took
pride in referring to his humble
origin. and throughout his life lived
modestly and unostentauously. He
was extremely democratic and ar.

lUnlted Press Stan correspondent }
TOKYO-When the Crown Prince
returns from his visit in Europe
he will be appointed regent Of
Japan.
This was the belief today Of the
best informed public men and jour
nalists, but as yet no whisper even
has been allowed TO filter through
into print. No newspaper would dare
to discuss the matter. as II would
mean certain and instant suppress
sion.
The Crown Prince is now OF age.
according TO japanese count. over
a year ago, when the III hearth OF the
Emperor reached the stage where he
could no longer attend public func-
tions. and when II became necessary
TO have the Empress or the Crown
Prince receive ambassadors and per-
form similar duties in his place
there was some talk about appoint
ment OF regent, but the Crown
Prince was not mentioned at tn,
time. and the Imperial Household
i Department promptly denied tn,
story.
Now, It is pointed out. the Crow
|. Prince is receiving the finishing
touches in his training as a futur
sovereign by his visit in Europe, an
there will be every reason for plac
, ing him in the position as reger
when he returns
In the meantime the press satishs
itself with elaborate speculation
with regard to the movements OF n
Elder Statesmen. particularly a Ion
conference which Prince Yamagat
and Prince Saionji recently had wit
the Emperor. Most OF the pane
confined themselves 90 rne suppos
tion that the talk concerning itso

Whether the Crown Prince is.

his return to Japan or not. the pu
lie looks forward towards gre
e changes. owing to his experien
abroad. Great satisfaction has be-
expressed at his rubbing elbows wi
ordinary mortals in England. Fran

And Shabby Quarters

ALLOWANCE

BUENOS AIRES-Refusal OF the
state Department at Washington to
authorize sufficient funds to lease
new embassy headquarters suitable
10 the dignity OF the United States,
in the opinion OF Frederic Jesup
stimson, recently retired ambassa-
dor has forced the American En-
hassy TO take quarters in a building
whose ground floor is occupied by
a mattress factory, a carpenter shop
and a ladies' tailoring establishment
The embassy was obliged to give
up the building which has been the
Office OF American diplomatic rep
resentatives for the last twelve
wears owing to the desire OF the
owner to occupy It himself. This
was a two-story residence OF pleas
ing exterior facing the Plaza San
Martin, and although far from pre-
tentious as compared with the le-
cations Of most other countries, was
we'll arranged, well appointed and
entirely occupied by the embassy.
II was obtained when rents in Bue-
nos Aires were comparatively low,
for $50 pesos month, or a little
over $500, and this figure, on ac-
count Of the friendship OF the owner
for Ambassador Stimson, was not
raised when rents went soaring dur
ing the war.
When It became necessary re-
Gently to give up the place, neither
Mr.. Stimson nor Francis White, now
Charge d'Affaires, could find a build
ing comparable to it for less than
1890 pesos month. The State De-
partment set a limit OF $50 pesos and
strangers looking for the American
Embassy find a building on a side
street whose shabby entrance is

quarters by a dark spiral staircase,
set in a well to small "sala" or
waiting room, which in winter Is
heated by an oil stove. There are
ten other rooms which visitors agree
are shabbily decorated and. with the
exception OF two with freplaces,
they have no heating apparatus.
Recently there was a fire in the
carpenters shop. Had the FIRE de-
stroyed the building complete arch
ives dating from the days Of Caesar
Minister to Argentine. a century age
probably would have been lost.
Only one other nation has an en-
hassy in Argentina and that is Spain
which will soon house its Ambassa
dor in a palace costing nearly tw
million pesos. The Chilean legatio
already has a veritable palace. Will
