it harder and harder to enforce the
national law elsewhere. One thous-
and policemen who have been de-
tailed to see that the Mullan- Gage
law was enforced in New York City
will be withdrawn and only the Fed
eral agents, and they are few, will
be left to enforce the Volstead act.
'sThis story shows you marked
contrast between the sincere efforts
Of the PepubTican administration to
see that this law is enforced as ALL

forts of the Democrats of New York

AMERICA HAS
PEACE ASSURANCE
Secretary of State Hughes Points to
Friendly Accord in the Pacific

Washington, May To- America
has "every assurance of abiding
peace" so far as sour relations with
other peoples are concerned" Sec
rotary Hughes said tonight, in an
address before the National Confer
ence of Social Work.
'sThe clouds which two years ago
darkened the Far Eastern sky have
been dissipated," he said, land to the
disappointment of those who make
bitterness the test of patriotism we
have been able to associate the great
powers of the Pacific in a friendly
accord, supported by mutual conf
dence, while at the same time we
have carefully preserved the sound
American tradition of freedom from
alliance and the principle of equality
of opportunity"
Mr. Hughes said this had been ac-
complished by achieving "a disarma-
mentment of thought" and that the
Washington arms conference had
managed to scrap distrust as well
a sthe vessels of war, = and to the
wasteful competition, (which spelled
not security but suspicion"
To-day, Notwithstanding the
gravity of unsettled issues he con-
tinued, 1--WE find throughout the
world ample reason for encourage
ment in the earnest efforts to remove
the economic evils following the
great war in the exhibition of en-
HANGED industrial capacity, in the
swift repair of damaged areas, in
the extraordinary extent of recovery
despite all difficulties.
$50 great has been the progress
that it is not too much to say that
the while aspect of affairs would in
stantly change if only means could
be found to dispel the fear and APP
prehension which is the barrier to
accord and to give sound basis for
the confidence which all desire"

URGES MORE RELIGION.

Europe needs religion more than
reparations. Roger W. Babson asserted
yesterday afternoon. during the course
of an address at the Mount Vernon
Methodist Church. in which he urged
business men to get behind the churches,
saying they alone provide the only solu-
ton to the great problems before us.
THE security of everybody and every
thing worth while depends not upon
Congress or courts. but upon the philos-
ophy and principles actuating our peo-
pie. in short, upon our religion" said
Mr.. Babson. THE security of your
family depends on the priests rather
than on the policemen. and the security
of your property depends on the preach
ers rather than the bankers. The Sc
curity Of the world depends upon the
philosophy of the nations rather than
upon the agreements of nations.
I'VE look upon stock certificates.
mortgages, etc, as If they were of real
value. They have absolutely no value
of themselves. Their value depends
wholly on the honesty of the lawyers
who draw the papers. on the integrity
of the clerks who copy the records, on
the honor of the officials who sign the
documents. on the courage Of the courts
which must enforce the claim and. final
lY. on the righteousness of the COM
