persons to make the tortuous jour

KY. where Floyd Collins died, is
in washington comforting with the
experts at the Bureau of Mines in
an effort to lessen the hazards OF

Larnbie refused to make more
than a passing remark on the Col.

.sHe is dead and the facts in the
case are too well known to do any
good by raking them up again" he
declared.
AS chief of mining operations in
his State, Lambie Is devoting all OF
his time and energy to teaching
operators to overcome the hazards
that occur in the mines.
In West Virginia there has been
recently instituted under Lambie's
guidance a bureau of five men who

ALIEN LAW

A meeting of protest Of Knights
of Columbus of the District against
treatment of Catholics in Mexico
shortly will be called in accordance
with action taken at the second
annual Hget together" dinner OF
the order at the New Willard last
night. following a denunciation or
Mexico's attitude by the Most Rev
Michael J.6 Curley, archbishop OF
Baltimore.
The welfare Of the nation. Arch
bishop Curley told more than 400
knights, depends on an honest
attitude in dealing with national
and international problems. In
connection with national problems,
the archbishop called attention to
sumptuary legislation and the exist
ing immigration law. The latter,
he said. was based on most
idiotic fallacy," the alleged super
iority of the Nordic races.
There are both superior and
inferior Nor0ics and Latins, he de-
clared, and the Italians have con-
tributed as much to the culture OF
this country as the Nordlcs nave
in commerce and science.
Criticizing the tendency to de-
mand obedience to law without pro-
test, Archbishop Curley asserted
that no more foolish theory or
government was ever advanced.
I'VE make laws and they are
the safeguards and should not be
the destroyers OF liberty" he said.
Law is essential to society; but it
does not follow that every law IS
just: that every law is right. It
does not follow in America that we
as American citizens have no right
to speak our minds and work Tor
modification or change OF un-
just ones.
A bit later the archbishop re-
marked: You may imagine that
am going to speak to you about q
certain law. but am not. Some
ann

does not believe In saving souls by
civil law.

Poor street lighting in Washing
ton is an invitation to thugs and
highwaymens to practice their trade
with perfect safety. the police and
fire protection committee OF the
Chamber of Commerce reported last
night when 1t requested that more
and brighter street lamps be in
stalled here at once.
The board Of directors approved
the report, which asked for I'M
mediate action.
Charles W. Day, chairman, said
his committee did not feel the time
ripe for prohibiting all.nighs auto.
mobile parking in the District, but
felt some restriction regulating the
parking should be made within a
year.
The committee renewed its In
tiorsement of any move to get Con-
Eress to restrict the sale Of fire
arms here, but added that unless
Congress also took steps to enforce
the ruling 1t would be useless.
Night watchmen, private patrol
men and those employed to guard
property SHOULD be required to turn
n \ report from the police box in
their section at certain hours, the
committee believes.
