 The president reiterated that America's aim was "a policy of peace through reason rather than force," and declared that in It's dealings with the peoples of this and other nations, the navy must remember that the dominant traits of mankind are truth and justice and righteousness, and that the ap- peal to reason must ultimately pre- vail.

three years of pioneer work in Peekskill, N. Y. There, as in New Britain, the community had utterly neglected the younger elements of the congregation. The services in the synagogue. the religious schools and other activities took little or no cognizance of the newer generation that is growing up in an American atmosphere. a generation trained in colleges and universities, in constant contact with every new tide in American life and in no mood to accept the religion of the fathers without question,
 "The Christian world is just now witnessing a mighty struggle be- tween the liberals and the tunda- mentalists. The very same up heaval is going on in the syna- gogue. In the smaller Jewish com munities the struggle hardly exists. There are no liberals ready to un- dertake the task of reinterpreting the ancient religion. There are. in deed, less and less of the younger Jews who are at all interested ln that reinterpretation. Thus it has happened that the synagogue is to- day being ignored and its usefulness lost, both to the Jew as well as 70 the world outside.
 "Such has been the condition Tn the local Jewish congregation. Now and then the spirit of enlightened religious zeal showed itself. A few daring souls sought now and again 10 remedy the situation. However the task was hopeless without pro- per leadership. It was imperative that A leader be obtained who had been brought up in an American en- vironment, who knows the needs oi the youth of today, who has been trained in recognized universities and theological schools. Such a leader only, 1t was seen, would De ahle 10 restore harmony and strength to the life of the community. II was for that reason and with that hope that Rabbi Hadas has beer brought to New Britain. The con- gregation feels that Rabbi Hada' will be able to strengthen not onI! its own work but that he will also be wholesome factor in the llt' of the whole community
 The synagogue has been remod eled and completely redecorated 1T honor of Rabbi Hadas' coming Rev Rabbi Cantor will continue his serv ices as cantor of the congregation and a choir has been organized t' assist al the services. This choir | made up of the Misses Cantor, Nil

LIVELY TIME W HARTFORD
 AS 1925 LEGISLATURE El
 WINDING UP ITS BUSINESS
COUNCIL TO RESCUE
 .OF V.F. W. CONVENTION
Bristol Government Votes to Get Behind and
 Boost
Especial to the HeTaldJ

Bristol, June 3.-"That's not the way we raised money to send the boys across,' said Mayor John r, Wade at the council meeting last night, when in- formed by Commander Charles T. Blanchard of Harold r. Emmett post, Veterans of Foreign Wars, of the fruitless efforts of the post to raise funds to carry on the state convention in this city next week. As the result of the commanders appeal, the sum of $500 was voted from the contingent fund to meet expenses already incurred and the council and mayor united in de- cision to campaign the city for money to support the convention. Mayor Wade declared that he was willing to interview the manufac- turers and asked several counciimen to call upon merchants 10 assist the veterans In their laudable enter prise.
 The action of the council in com- ing solidly to the support of the veterans convention makes possible the holding of the big event. The veterans did not seem to be able to make progress and many intimations were passed about the city In the last few weeks that the convention had died a peaceful death and that the event would be transferred to another city.
 Only indomitable efforts on the part of the veterans kept the event alive and some strenuous work was necessary to make any kind of an impression about the city. Discour- agement met the former service men everywhere when the prospects of the convention were mentioned.
 Even the high school athletic field was denied for carnival but later was granted to the post. after efforts had been made by Mayor Wade and Judge Roger s. Newell. chairman of the recreation committee. connected with the new high school building and its grounds.
 It was the opinion Of the council last night that the loss of the con, vention would damage this city more than the sum asked for by Com- mander Blanchard, and the city board thought that solid support should be given at once. With but a few days intervening as the con- vention opens on June 15, the move of the city board came in the nick of time.
 In making his request, Command CT Blanchard said that the commit tee in charge of the event hat sliced the budget from s4,200 tc s1.500 and that the post anticipated the raising of about $l,O0o by it' carnival next week.

The Bozeman courier. (Bozeman, Mont.) 1919-1954, 1925-11-27

The opinion points out that the
state of Montana is the owner of all
land below the waters of a navigable
stream, below the low water mark.
In rowing his boat on the river and
fishing therein, Sutherland was with
in his rights. He also had the right
to shoot ducks on the surface Of the
stream, if he did not trespass en- the
river bank owned By the farmer.
Trospassed on Banks.
The court holds that in mOoring his
boat above the low water mark and
walking along the bank, Sutherland
the hunter, was a trespasseg. He like
wise trespassed when he walked up
and down the banks of Fan Greek,
reads the opinion, because the channel
of the creek belonged to the farmer.
While the farmer did not own the
fish, says the court, he had the ex-
elusive right to fish for them while
they were in the waters Of the creek
on his land.
ct would seem clear that a man
has no right to fish where he has no
right to be-" writes Justice Galloway,
$50 it is held uniformly that the pub
lie has no right to fish in a non
navigable body Of water, the bed of
which is owned privately.
ct must be held that when Suther-
land, although standing on the land
Of another, fired a shotgun over the
premises Of Herrin, his dwelling and
J cattle, he interfered with the quiet,
un~disturbed, peaceful enjoyment Of
the farmer and thus committed a
technical trespass, at least. Land,
says Blackstone, in its legal significa-
ton has an indefinite extent, upwards
as well as downwards. Whoever owns
the lands possesses the space upwards
to an indefinite extent"
The fact that all have the right to
hunt and take such game as is allowed
by statute upon the public domain,
does not warrant one in entering upon
privately enclosed lands for that pur-
pose, reads the opinion, and it follows
that the owner has a right to recover
damages from those who trespass. In
this state, when the me posts his
land, warning persons that they may
not hunt OF trespass thereon and they
do so, they are subject to criminal
prosecution.
