L. $. PROPOSAL CHEERED.
British House Receives Coolidge's
Suggestion of Naval Limitation.

LONDON, March l P.-~Foreign
Secretary Chamberlain announce
ment in the House of Commons yes
terday that Great Britain had accept
ed President Coolidge's invitation to
discuss further naval limitation was
briskly cheered by the House.
The announcement itself containing
an expression Of Britain's desire 10
assure success of President Coolidge's
proposal was rather a formal Incl
dent. AS things happened. the mem
bers were chiefly occupied with the
governments intentions concerning
the reply of Soviet Russia TO the
British protest against Soviet propa.
gauda. Hence when former Premier
Ramsay Macdonald, by arrangement.
put question giving the foreign sec
rotary an opening to read the text of
the British acceptance of President
CoOlidge's invitation, the House was
not greatly moved. but did give ex-
preston of approval.

Courts I'nanimity Cited.

The decision is all the more striking
because it was unanimous.
Justice Harlan Stone, who was At
torney General when the prosecution
Of the oil cases was begun, did not, of
course, take part in the decision,
which was rendered by eight Justices.
Politically the cases will have far
reaching effect. The fact that the SUI
preme Court accuses two cabinet of
ficers Of blundering~-they hold Secre-
tary DENLY responsible, too-will be
used by stump speakers who wish to
attack Republican rule. The fact, how
ever, that a Republican administra-
ton relentlessly prosecuted the cases
and fought them successfully to the
highest court of the United States
will be offered by Republicans as evil
dence that they do not permit politi
cal considerations to interfere with
the administration of justice.

Supplements Text of Note.

The foreign secretary supplemented
the brief text of the note by stating
that all of the dominions, except the
Irish Free State, which has not vet
replied, had approved the terms of the
governments acceptance.
The reply itself seemed rather to
surprise the members of the House
by its brevity, but no questions were
asked. Foreign Secretary Chamber
lain made no attempt to further en-
tighten the House concerning the gov
ernment's views on the Washington
proposal and the House immediately
turned to other business.
In lobby talk among the members
later there was general agreement
that the government had taken the
only proper course in acceptance of
the invitation. In the face of the

Form Of Invitation Cited

The suggestion made by the Pres
ident to the powers was confined
strictly to Limitation of armament"
and was not intended by Mr.. Cool
idge to imply plans for reduction of
armament. The President attaches
significance to this in view of the
form of some of the replies.

PRESIDENT HOPES
FOR 5-POWER PACT
Adverse Replies for Farley on
Navy Limitation Not AC-
copied as Final Word.

BY the Associated Press.
President Coolidge still hopes for a
five-power agreement further TO limit
naval armament.
While he has not had opportunity
to examine carefully the favorable re-
plies to his suggestion received from
Great Britain and Japan, and the un-
favorable answers from France and
Italy, it was said at the White House
today that he did not regard those
communications as foreclosing any
possibility of such agreements between
the naval powers as he has in mind.
Three-POwer Pact Doubted.
The President doubts the practica.
bility of a three-poWer agreement be-
tween Great Britain, Japan and the
United States, should it prove impos.
sible to obtain a five-poWer treaty
1t was recalled that at the time of
the Washington conference, Great
Britain took the position that it could
not agree to limitation on cruisers
unless France was prepared to under.
take limitation of submarine tonnage.
1t Is felt that there may be posi-
bilities in the three-poWer suggestion
despite this circumstances. but for the
present the Washington Government,
still is pursuing the five.power plan
and is not without hope of ultimate re-

this are somewhat hard to de-
velop except in this general way
and with application to modern
problems. 1t is almost impossible
to reproduce in our own minds
the exact historical situation, but
it is not difficult to sense the re-
ligious realities and the princi-
pies of wise policy and good gov
eminent as they apply to the in
ternal foundations of the nation
and to dealings with others.
In America at the present hour
no problem is more acute than
that of our relationship to other.
nations and peoples. What is our
attitude and our policy going to
be? In one sense it might well be
that of the avoidance of entan-
Cling alliances.
We ought to be doing all in
our power, not'only for the pres
ervation of world peace and for
the attaining of conditions that
would assure world peace for the
future. but also in every possible
way for the making of goodness
righteonsnces effective
against evil, error, and injustice
among men.

Sixteen Years of Horror
For Innocent Man Ends

A FTER sixteen years of hardship
a and horror, Camille Eugene
Dieudonne is now back with his
family in Paris, his freedom and
his honor restored. His family is
somewhat strange to him, for until
he arrived in France from Brazil
recently he never had seen his son,
now a youth taller than himself.
The Dieudonne case is one of the
most glazing m~iscarriages of JUS
tice that ever has been brought to
light.
Seventeen years ago the notorious
Bonnet gang of automobile bandits
was t%errorizing Paris and the
neighborhood. Public feeling ran
high and when the men were finally
trapped the extreme penalty vas
demanded
Condemned to Die
Dieudonne became implicated
with the gang on the evidence of
n of the men who had been at
tackled. He s~toutly maintained HIS
innocence, and from the first the
evidence was doubted by many.
Dieudonne was sentenced to be ex-
ecuted with three members of the
gang, Bonnet, GARNER and Gale
min, but Raymond Poincare, then
president of the republic, exercised
the prerogative of clemency in the
case of Dieudonne, and the SEN
tence was altered to life in prison.
Bonnet and GARNER died in des-
perate attempts to escape. Gale
min died on the guillotine, but until
the very last he insisted that Dieu-
dome was innocent and had not
been involved with the gang at all.
Dieudonne was sent to the con
vict prison where he spent fifteen
years. His son was born shortly
after he was taken away, He kept
In touch with his family and friends
as best he could and never ceased
his fight to establish his innocence.
Newspapers, lawyers, writers and
public men became interested in
his case, but still the years went on
and Dieudonne remained in the
prison camp.

Next Sunday mornings sermon
topic Shall We Pray?" In these
days when we have become so
familiar with a world governed
by seemingly invariable laws, is
it rational to engage in prayer?
Does prayer have an effect upon
ourselves only or does it really
change things outside of us? Does
prayer cause God to do something
He would not have done if we
had not prayed? If prayer is not
rational, how shall we explain the
natural desire to pray, in the
souls of all races, if it is true that
natural tendencies of this kind
point to an answering reality, as
scientists say they do?
Sunday evening Following Jes-
us" will be the sermon topic.

"a century ago." says DR.. John
R. Aohler of the U. S. Department
of Agriculture, "the British Isles
were prominent in agriculture,
particularly in livestock growing.
For many years this has been sub
ordinated to industrial develop
ment. The United States is I'M
dergoing a similar change. In the
last rs years the population has
increased $4,000 O0, but there are
j, 1000, 900 fewer beef cattle, 9,OOO,-

and he managed to escape at great
risk and under intense hardships.
He made his way to Brazil. where
he found work. But he did not
enjoy his freedom because he want
ed to return to his own country and
clear his name.
One of the leaders of the Dieu.
dome cause was Albert Londres,
brilliant journalist of the Petit
Parisien, who was convinced of the
mans innocence and worked untir-
ingly to establish it. He repeatedly
brought the case to public attention
and at last the minister of justice
was persuaded to review it thor
oughly. This investigation satisfied
the authorities that Dieudonne was
innocent. He was given permission
to return home and a full pardon
has now been granted him.
Today Dieudonne bears no Ill.
will. He says he is happier with
his family than he had ever
dreamed of being and he is content
with the ultimate justice of his ma.
tive land. His health is good and
he shows little trace Of his painful
experiences.

THIS lesson cannot be adequate
ly understood unless one has
an appreciation of the position of
Israel among he E2tions in an
cient times. This position has
been compared TO that of such
countries as Belgium in modern
.Europe-the position of a buffer
state between great rival and con-
tending powers. Palestine. in its
very situation. vas naturally the
battle ground between warning
empires, and much of the history
of Israel must be read i'll the
light OF these riyalries.
Wisdom as well as sound pol
icy. inclined Israel to take the
high-mInded and noble position
of attending to her W affairs
and developing sound ideals of
government within her borders. Il
was. of course very difficult to do
this. for ever high-minded people
are not always let alone in the
managing OF their own affairs.
Hezckiah High-A.indcd
Hezekiah, king of Judah, was
a high-minded and able ruler. In
the early part of his reign he was
not disposed to listen to the coun-
sci of Isaiah. and he allowed him
self to become involved in d hos
tile attitude toward Assyria.
Later. however, he inclined to
listen to the advice of Isaiah. and
when he and his advisers had got
ten in difficulties, Hczekiah sent
to Isaiah.
Isaiah's message was reassur-
ing. that God is the true master
of the fate OF men and nations,
and that strength and power, ar
rogant in blasphemy, have in
them the seeds of weakness de-
spite all appearance of force.
