RISES ID DEFEND
 YOUNGER ELEMENT
Mrs. Pinchot Says They Are No Worse Than Their Elders

Buffalo. April sS.-Truth of asser- tions that the ties that bind society are loosened after every great war and that general social disintegration in- yariably follows, is proved fin these days. Mrs. Clifford Pinchot declared today before the convention of the National League of Women Voters. Mrs. Pinchot defended the younger generation, asserting, however, that both in the young and in the old the War had worked many destructive changes. and that the growing gen. eration was softer and possessed of less stamina than generations of the past.
 'Moralists are telling us that there is a greater laAity in the manners and morals of the rising generation than there has been at any time in the past, and although I believe we can discount practically. the whole indiet- mcnt the older generation brings against the younger-for the same sort of things have been said for the past ten thousand years. our mothers and fathers despaired of us exactly in the same terms as theirs did of them. and as We shall probably of our own young-still there is certain basis of truth in some Of these charges she said.
 "Now the demoralization takes many forms" she continues "one of the most subversive and dangerous of which is the open violation of the eighteenth amendment that we see around us on every side. dangerous and subversive because cynical con- tempt for law by any group, whether large or small. is bound to bring evil consequences in its train to the en- tire community"
 Mrs. Pinchot said her husband s election as governor of Pennsylvania was essentially a referendum on tho liquor question. She then turned to
 New York state and the repeal of the Mullan-GaGe law. Governor Smith. she ayowed, "novcr lifted a finger to
 help it through the legislature, and it is even said that he prayed earnest ly for the demise of this, his fayorite child"
 "T don't mean 10 attack Governor Smith for in many ways I think he has been fine outstanding governor. I am merely trying 10 show that the terror of being dry is gradually ahat- ing in the minds of politicians as the! hear from their country"

MINISTER EXPLAINS WHY HE RESIGNED
ReV. MT. Hazen Says He Thought
 Some Wanted a Change

Rev. Carleton Hazen, retiring pas tor Of the Kensington Congrega- tional church. in his farewell sermon at the church yesterday morning. stated that the minister is leader among. rather than an autocrat over, his flock. He stated that his resigna- tion, although written in the vein that his salary was not large enough. was really handed in because he believed the people of the church were rest less and desired a change. He stated that the resignation was written for the sake of the future Of the church.
 His text was taken from Cor. 5:1S-20, The Ministry of Reeoncilia- tion." and was in part as follows:
 You may regard the text as chosen to express my conception of the great purpose of the Christian ministry. The minister has mes ssge that comes, not from himself, but from God through Christ; for we preach not ourselves. but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your ser wants for Jesus sake But it is a message that must be made our own in real sense, by q personal cXper- fence of reconciliation, so that in the phrase of Paul, one may properly speak Of my gospel as the personal interpretation of the gospel of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed 10 my trust
 There are many things that might bo said, were there a longer period for the sermon. l cannot make re- view of the years. For more than l5 years l have continued until this day, by the help of God, In my letter of acceptance, of which no copy is at hand, l expressed the sentiment that the success of my ministry as far as human conditions are concerned, was dependent upon the hearty coopera- ton of the members of the church Whatever success has followed has resulted from that fellowship in serr- ice. And by whatever degree unity of spirit has been lacking, the fruitagC has been diminished. So when it came

to my knowledge that some were resi- less. desiring change. or another type of minister, resignation was the natural consequence.
 T have believed that the church is a spiritual fellowship, and the min ister q leader among. rather than an autocrat over. the brethren. I have sought not yours but you. Though my resignation made reference 10 the inadequate salary. which notwith- standing largely increased figures has never been adequate for the support of a family, that was not the real rt ason for the resignation. but was written for the sake of the future Of the church."

CHAMBER TO HAVE
AVIATION PROGRAM
Film And Talks To Feature
Monday Meeting

Aviation and Its Importance to
Our National Welfare" is the subject
of a meeting to be held at the Chamber
Of Commerce Monday evening under the
direction of the National Aeronautic
association and sponsored by a number
of civic clubs.
A feature of the program arranged
is a four reel film depicting the his
tory of air machines and the progress
this country and foreign nations are
making with the invention. During
this picture John Ahlers of Dayton,
will explain the various steps.
The purpose of the meeting is to
bring more wildly before citizens the
Importance of airships, both for com
mercialized and war use. This has
been much neglected, according to All
lers, and the country is being rapidly
left behind by other nations.
It is also felt that the program will
stimulate enough interest in aviation
for the organization in Birmingham of
a chapter of the Aeronautical associa-
ton which are located in all of the
leading cities.
