FINDS AMERICA TOO BIG
TO ENFORCE ITS LAWS

LONDON, Oct. 8.-Hugh WaIpoie.
novelist, who has just returned from
America, has been telling interview
ers how much America has improved
since his previous visit. He asserts,
however, that there is a great deal
of wrong administration of law and
much lawlessness in cities.
THE enormous size of America is
responsible for this" he says. THE
nation can hardly be blamed. /
think America and Britain are both
too much inclined to lecture each
other"

Speaking at a community meet
ing arranged by the Laymen' S
Service Association in the amphi-
theater at Mt. st. Adams yesterday
afternoon, Bishop James T.. Free
man sounded the call for great
religious revival in the churches OF
Washington.
-"I want to see a revival Of faith
ii this diocese" declared the new
Bishop, who was the central figure
q similar services the Sunday pre-
ceding, something deep that will
grip the souls of Westinghouse

christianity has not been tried
and found wanting, Bishop Free
man asserted; it has merely been
tried and found difficult.
''If yOur Christianity does not
cost YOU anything it is worthless"
he told the 10000 in his audience.
'Fhe man who attempts to save his
own soul alone, will ultimately find
It shriveled.
Grateful to Laymen.
e'I am greateful for the interest
OF the laymen and women of Wash
ington in the things we are trying
to do here. I know the civic life of
this city well. 1t expresses the new
note in modern civilization. so Well
given in the slogan of one of the
great organizations here: Not self,
but service which I feel is the
unspoken ambition OF all our civic
and lay bodies
"A great song service was led by
the army band, as on the previous
Sunday The cathedral clergy read
the peoples open-air evensong. The
scripture sentences and prayers
were read by the Rev. William DE-
Vries, cathedral Canon; the psalter
by the Rev. Charles Warner, rector
of st. Adams Church; the Bible
lesson by the Rev. George Fiske
Dudley, rector Of st. Stephens, and
the creed versicles and prayers were
recited by the Very Rev. George c..
+. Fratenahl, dean of the cathedral.
Lewis Speaks.
The other speaker of the after
noon was William Mather Lewis,
new president of George Washing
ton University who talked from the
laymen's point of view. IS.
mo city in the nation has body
Of citizens more responsive to the
call of ennobling civic enterprise
than has Washington" he declared
mo city has more men who carry
high ideals into their business oper-
atoms. In Dickens Christmas
Carol the ghost Of a dead miser,
when reminded by a friend that. he
had been a good business man, cried
out in anguish: Business? Man
kind was my business! The public
welfare was my business! The deal
ings Of my trade were but drop
in the limitless ocean Of my bust
ness
1--WE laymen Of Washington know
full well that mankind is our bust
ness, that the public welfare is our
business; but we are sometimes a
little puzzled as to how to go about
our business - sometimes a little
tinid to admit the thought that the
spirit Of Christianity voiced in the
Sermon on the Mount is the only
thing that will save a distraught
world from chaos"

CITY OFFICIALS
STILL SEEK TAX
TANGLE SOLUTION
Special Meeting Of Council
Discussed in Connection
With Difficulty,

City officials through investigation
by the legal department and the State
tax board today believed they had a
solution to the present tangled condi-
ton of city finances following the ac-
ton of the council in which it passed
a tax levy and refused a budget.
Investigation Of the 1919 tax law
disclosed that the levies do not have
to be certified until Sept 10 which
would enable the city council to pass
both tax levq and budget, and save
the administration program.
With the discovery. a special meet
ing of council for FRIDAY night was
discussed The meetinng of the coun-
ell may veto the present tax levy, and
pass both budget and levy again. Pres
ident John King, 1t is understood,
would favor such a meeting.
City officials until today believed
both the budget and tax levy OF this
year would have TO go into effect
according to 1913 State law The
levy of this year was 97.4 cents A
levy Of s1,O35 was passed by council
Monday night.

HIS SYMP ATHY
Former Illinois Governor
Writes to MCCray,

Governor McCray today received a
letter from Frank o. Dowden, former
Governor Of Illinois, in which the lat
ter expressed strong sympathy with
Indiana's executive In his present
financial plight and in which he de-
clared the last three years have been
exceedingly trying to farmers in gen.
eral. Former Governor Lowden's let
ter, in part. follows:
Il. myself as you know, have been
farming upon a large scale in recent
years. When I got out Of office two
years ago last January all of my farms
were losing money rapidly. This was
due to two things: First, like every
other man in office 1 had given abso
lutely no attention to my personal
affairs while 1 was Governor; second
not within my memory has the farmer
gone through as difficult years as the
last three have been to him"
