CRITICS OF SPEECH.
Reaction Favors "Prohibi-

BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, April 21.-An ex
traordinary Generalization Of public
standards and private patriotism is
indicated when speech which mere
ly stands emphatically against nulli'
fication of the Constitution Of the
United States, and for its amendment
by lawful means only, should be crtti'
cized and denounced by some alleged
leaders of thought" says William G..
McAdoo, former Secretary of the
Treasury, in a letter to appear in the
Manufacturers Record, local publ
cation, today. This is a great issue,
and neither Of the major political
parties should be permitted to evade
it in 1925"
The speech referred to was delivered
by Mr.. McAdoo before the Ohio State
Bar Association at Toledo last Janu-
ary, on prohibition, notification and
lawlsssness." This address, Mr.. Nc
AdoOs said, was "a more considered
one than that delivered in Los An
geletss last Fall. His letter was in
reply to one from Richard H. Ed
monds, editor Of the Record, congratu-
lating him on both speeches.
The reaction in the country to the
Toledo speech, the former Secretary
said, has been unusually favorable.
The wet press condemned 1t and
abused me personally, but did not an
swer1@the argument"
Mira McAdoo, in setting forth also
his position on tariff legislation, de-
clared:
I'm any future tariff legislation ag
ticulture must, to the extent that it is
possible to give it an economic benefit,
get equal, or even greater, considera-
ton than industry. The maladjust-
ment between industry and agri-
culture, to which the present tariff
has contributed so greatly, is one of
the outstanding economic problems of
the country"

Love and Financial
Worries Disrupt
Sleep of Students
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PITTSBURG, April 21.-Love
and financial worries played hob
with the slumbers of two college
students during scientific study
of sleep at the Mellon Institute
of Industrial Research.
The two boys We're among
score of University of Pittsburgh
students who volunteered them
selves as subjects for the expert
ment and slept on specially con-
structed beds which recorded their
every movement.
Recounting some of his observa.
tions today, DIR. H. NJ. Johnson,
who made the study, said one of
his subjects became involved in
a very dangerous love affair"
which caused him to face a con-
stant threat of physical danger and
social ruin. The student tossed
and tumbled about in bed and
his average rest period diminished
a third.
Another boy, hard pressed for
cash. wrestled with his problem
for three months. Finally he made
up his mind to get along with
what he had. Forthwith his aver
age rest period was boosted third.

CUTS UNIFORM COSTS.
Japanese Emperor Orders Changes
to Reduce Heavy Expense.

TOXIC, April 81 CP).-The cost of
attending court functions and main.
tanning rank is so great in Japan that
many peers are never seen in public,
because of their inability to stand the
expense.
The Emperor, however. has sug-
gested that court institutions and GUS
toms be simplified, and the household
department will draw up new regula-
tions concerning court uniforms.
The uniforms have cost from 500
to 1000 yen each, and new ones had
to be purchased every time the own
er's rank was raised. The new rules
will make the cost less and the uni
forms so constructed that they can
be modified at small expense when
ever the wearer's rank is changed.

France.
d Hughes Reviews Career.
Reviewing the public career Of Mr.
Root for the past 20 years. Mr.. Hughes
said: "He has enhanced the prestige
of the American name more than
arms or battle fleets. He has been a
true apostle of good will"
Termng Mr. Root "the recognized
leader of the peace movement in the
United States" Mr.. Hughes credited
him with suggesting a practical plan
for the operation Of the Permanent
Court Of international Justice and
with guiding Americas s course wisely
while he served a. Secretary of State.
Roots battle as War Secretary

who served as chief Of the Insular

"Those of us who have passed
through the World War cannot but
look upon Mr.. Root as the guiding

PACT WITH FRANCE
Root Treaty Likely to Be Ex-
tended in Move to Avert
War Between Nations.
BY the Associated Press.

10y tNe ASSoflatth tIPSS'
Conversations here with relation to
the anti-war treaty proposals made
by France are tending toward the
view that the subject can be best
treated in extending or redraftirg the
Root arbitration treaty between the
two countries, which expires Febru-
AIRY -.
1t was said at the State Department
Yesterday that this appeared 10 be the
most logical" method Of insuring con
tinued peace between France and the
United States, but it was emphasized
that the American viewpoint did not
contemplate a blanket commitment to
arhitrate questions of every character
The Root treaty itself makes the
susual exception. diyorcing purely do
mestic matters. such as immigration,
taxation and like subjects, from the
field of arbitration. 1t also reserves
action on all issues involving national
honor.
The conversations here between
Secretary Kellogg and Paul Claudel,
the French Ambassador, in which Am
bassador Herrick and Chairman
Borah of the Senate foreign relations
committee have had a share were said
at the state Department not to have
app cached point where any definite
program for amendment Of the Root
treaty to widen its meaning had been
evolved. 1t was emphasized. however,
that the theory of arbitration was use
ful in solving international disputes
only so long as q distinction between
international and domestic questions
was drawn.
The state Department analysis of the
situation made it plain also that in
the event the Root treaty is revised
through the negotiations Ambassador
Herrick will undertake in Paris next
month. the form Of the revision was
expected to be such that treaties OF
a similar nature could he worked out
With all other countries.
