HARDEN AT STRAND

Hardeen. who a few years ago, was known throughout the world as a great performer and amateur snowman. returned to the stage in response to a public demand that has steadily increased since the passing away of his famous brother. the great Houdini.
 The fact that Houdini and Har- deen were not only of the closest blood relationship, but more than that. they began the careers that were to bring them both to the top most rung of fame's ladder. as the Houdini Brothers. This was when Hardeen was but seventeen years of age
 The lifelong understanding and sympathy that existed between two men of such unique and spectacular endowments. makes it particularly fitting that Hardeen should carry on the work of Houdini. a work that has brought and will continue to bring. boundless enjoyment to mil lions of people.

termine on the rules of action before anything could be done about the real controversy. To be compelled to stop to go through that process would probably result in having not one dispute, but many differences Of opinion. An implement becomes manifoldly more valuable if it is al- ready at hand when needed. But in discussing ways and means of procedure we should not overlook the tremendous significance that at taches 10 this conference. It has come into existence because the gov ernments and the people which it represents want peace and justice with each other.

 Promises Success
 II is in this part of the world that this movement has the greatest promise of success. The people Of the Western Hemisphere have been to ,rJ, animosities, but deep and abiding friendship for each other. There is not a nation among us that can not point to a long list Of friendly Of tices that have been bestowed upon it by it's neighbors. We have no historic and inbred hatreds. As we look across the boundard lines Of each other we do not behold any great array of ornaments deClara- tive of d hostile intent, but rather the peaceful occupations of people preparing to benefit each other by the mutual exchanges of benign commerce. Happily. all the advan- tages of development and trade lie

 These present prospects and these inspiring records of the past place upon us of this generation heavy responsibility. We must not only maintain the traditional policy es- tablished by the founders of our re- publics, but we must also carry the procedure of conciliation and arbi- tration to a new and higher sphere The world has the right to expect that the mission undertaken by the early statesmen of this continent shall be carried to completion. Our history. our national ideals. and the standards of our international inter- course make this a solemn obliga- ton.

| In the domain of inNeetigation, ton. a long series of bilateral and multllateral treaties represent the 1 milcstoneS which mark the way to l future progress. The importance and significance of your work is en- | hanced by the recent movement for the renunciation of war as princi- l pie of national policy, which by necessary implication involves re- course to the orderly processes lead i ing up to arbitration.
 It is by the adherence to such methods that nations as well as men develop a peaceful character. In a civilized community functioning un- der an established government the individual has no necessity for talk ing the law into his own hands Tribunals have been established for the purpose of doing justice between man and man, so that when some one feels he has suffered wrong he has process by which those who have wronged him can be summoned to the bar of justice and ordered to make reparation. When this prin- clple has been well established when if has had the benefit of eXnerience IT becomes so much a habit of thought that the people feel no in clination to resort to some method of direct and personal action. To do so would be to stamp thenSsclves as dangerus persons. and they would feel active disapprobation probably inflicted with the penalties which or sanized society bestows upon viola tors of the public will.
 Furnishes Knowledge
 The great value of the plan for arbitration lies in the fact that it both furnishes knowledge and as surance that differences will be ad- justed and also adjusts them. This has very large influence on the public temper. Nations do not cx- plode all at once without any pre- vious warning and begin to attack each other. Such action comes as the continuation of a long series of irritating incidents. If these are ad- justed as they arise, there is no fuel to feed the explosive elements when some difference of larger importance may occur. Two nations which have adjusted all their disputes except the one which has arisen in the inn mediate past will be on such friendly terms that war between them is al- most impossible.
 Slowly but surely modern thought is bringing the different nations of the world to corresponding stand ards. Governments are coming to see that it is by no means in dero- gation of their dignity to submit their differences with each other to the decision of an impartial tribunal The disposition to pursue nasty ac- ton is disappearing. The desire to bring differences to mutual accord and satisfaction by negotiation. rather than by conflict, is more and more apparent.
 Promote Spirit
 We shall greatly promote this spirit if we provide ourselves before the event with the necessary judi cial machinery and promulgate rules of procedure to govern the compos- ing of differences. Neither indi- viduals nor nations could make much progress in the direction if when a dispute arose, it was neces- sary to establish a tribunal and de-
