EVANGELIST TALKS ON
 "CAUSE OF LA WLESSNESS"
Disregard Tor Law Of God Reflected In Disregard For Law of
 Man, He says

Evangelist r.. l., cardey gave the seventh Of his series of lectures in the Iyceum thcatcr yesterday. The sub 5ect discussed was "The Cause of Law l.ssness." Among other things Mir. Cardey said:
 "Thc oil scandal which has revealed corruption in high places Is. a plain symptom Of the spirit of disregard for law that is nation wide, and world wide. Premier Macdonald recently said, Never was ominous writing on the wall more plain than the events and tcmpcrs of today Justice Grain of the New York supreme court said . few weeks ago; The tnits I states deserves the reputation 1t has of be- Ing the most lawless country in the civilized world Anarchy seems 10 be the pit whence all civilization is trenhing. EnUurhifnla men sec tbc condition: but fail to find the remedy Hs n rule. Disregard for the law of God has brought this disregard for the law Of man. What more can we expect of tho riHng generation when from tho pulpit and class room is coming flood of teaching that grrks To set God aslhr, and sct np monkey in his stead. That doubts the Bible, and. seeks Co overthrow the ten com mandmcnts, and in their place sets up the law Of social service, and amusc- menis in the church.
 Jesus declared that Co1's law would last for all time. Matt i: l1-19. Solomon said that to fear God and keen His commandments VAS thu whole duty Of l1an. Ec"l. 12:13. Paul wrote that obedience tp Gods Jaw was the very essence of lie. 1 Cor. 7:Ig.

FIND INTERFERENCE IN
 LOCAL RADIO RECEPTION
Transformer Near SmalIcy School Re. spOnsiblc For Part of Trouble
 Says Operator

J. Grobstein, of Amherst street, a licensed radio operator and a mem ber of the American Radio Relay, succeeded yesterday in locating one of the sources of interference with radio reception in New Britain by the use of a portable set which he had .in- stalled in motor car. By stopping at various points about the city and tuning in he finally decided that the noise was greatest in the vicinity of the Smalley school. To-day one Qf the officials of the Connecticut Light and Power company went out with him and it was found that a loose wire to a transformer near the school had been sway!ng in the wind and that the insulation had become rubbed off. The result was that there was an arc between the wire and the transformer, q condition which causes considerable commotion on the sensitive receiving sets. The power company has prom ised to remedy the defect today so that at least one disturbance should be eliminated by tuning in" time to- night.
 It has been the policy of members of the league to assist the amatuer receiver as much as possible. MT.

Composers Permit BrOadcastlDg Oi Works During Festival Week
 New York, March S1.-The society of Composers, Authors and Publish CTS will permit broadcasting stations to perform copyrighted musical con- positions in its repertory during Ma tional Music Week, May 4 to 10. Such performances must be given, however under the auspices or with approval of the National Music Week commit tee. C. N. Tremaine, committee sec retary, announced last night.
 The privilege, Mir. Tremaine said, was accorded in answer to a request previously made by his committee, and carried with it felicitations of the society on the prospective success of the May observance. This success, he added, was assured by 300 cities and nearly 200 of the communities which already had enlisted in the move ment, not to mention scores of others with which, Ee said, the committee was in communication. President Coolidge was given as chairman of the Honorary Music Week committee. which was also composed of 40 state and territorial governors.

There are tricksters at the top as we'll as at the bottom of the profession. Character is even@ more essential than technical knowledge in improving the situation. A serious obstruction to the changes is that the law is made so complicated, involved and technical that scarcely anybody out side of the legal profession, knows any thing about it. Until that evil is re- moved public suspicion of4the law will continue. The American Bar Associa- tion and other bar associations have a solemn duty in bringing about a mod ernization of court procedure. Despite criticisms of newspapers from time to time in, publishing what some lawyers claim they know nothing about, the press will cooperate fully in any practical means of removing the present obstruc- tions to the administration of justice.

PROPOSED CONVICT INQUIRY

The proposed examination into the conduct of the county prison camps and the treatment of the convicts is amply warranted by the low rumblings of abuses which have been heard from time to time. When there are suspicious and intimations of wrong administration in any department of public affairs, the only right course for the responsible of ficials to take is that of full and frank inquiry. There has often been shown a tendency on the part of public officials to get on the defensive as soon as there is any criticism regarding the conduct of public affairs in any particular That, of course, IS a very improper reaction.
 The public is more concerned with having public abuses corrected than it is with attaching blame to officials, unless officials persist in an attitude of indif- ference to such real or suspected abuses Abuses might very well creep into the handling of county convicts, for exam- pie, without any member of the county board being directly blamable for such abuses. But if such abuses are suspected and the proper officials would refuse or fail to look into the matter, then the blame would properly attach to the board. When, however, the public body ot OuCS pSCOIileS Ol1ASSHC III the 0IIOTC to remedy the abuses and to make measures calculated to prevent their recurrence, then the people will properly and justly credit the board with due zeal in the dis charge of its official obligations.
 If convicts are improperly treated be- cause of the failure of the county ade- quately to supply the necessary equip ment to their comfort and health, then the board is guilty of the consequent in jury. If convicts are improperly treated because of the carelessness, brutality or mismanagement on the part of the guards and wardens, then the removal of such offenders would appear to be the only course likely to cure the situation. When the board does discover the cause of any abuse or ill-treatment of convicts, let it apply the remedy without fear or favor, with an eye single to the cure. For that course the board would receive de- served public approval.

Brief Nature Studies
By ,. OTIS SWIFT

In little frog ponds in old Dutch fields along headwaters of the Bozenkill, in Duanes- burg, Albany county, where agents of the rich New Amsterdam patroOns collected rent from the simple farmer folk and receiving also 4the ancient Masonic sign" the placing of the thumb on the end of the nose and the wagging of the fingers to the mystification of wise proprietors in Manhattan, according to Irving, the placid surface is white with the floating blossoms of the sweet-scented water lily or water nymph.
 This lovely pond lily grows from the Gulf of Mexico to Nova Scotia and westward to the Mississippi. Related to the mystic lotus of the East, the queen of the damsel and dragon-fly, haunted frog ponds opens it's per fumed and golden-scented heart to the sun after 6 o'clock ip the morning when the day. light flies and bees are winging.
 Many of the lily ponds in Albany county, says Will w. Christman, were established by early nature-loving farmers who secured a root or two, tied them to a rock and threw them into the centers of lagoons, where they have multiplied in loveliness since.

cents, thus restoring the previous differ ential status.
 Under the system of rate differentials rate schedules from North Atlantic ports Ito Europe are less than from Gulf ports to the same ports. The difficulty at pres ent appears to be that North Atlantic lines have reduced their rates, to Euro pean ports without at the same time there being any corresponding reduction in rates from Gulf ports to the same points. Such reduction is necessary to keep the differentials on the same scale, The result of reducing the North Atlantic rates without proportionately reducing the Gulf rates is to invite export tonnage to North Atlantic ports and away from Gulf ports. Such a result is contrary to the policy of equal oppor- tunity to all ports. This equality the shipping board Seeks to maintain insofar as compatible with it's authority and op- portunity. Alabama is directly interested in the outcome of the inquiry, for it is to Alabama's advantage to have all the tonnage possible exported through the seaport at Mobile.
