ASCR|BES SUCCESS
TO BELIEF IN GOD
Giuseppe Motta, Noted Swiss
Leader, Rose From Hum
bile Origin to Power.
Br the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
BERN, Switzerland. october 27.-
Son of an inn keeper in the st. Goth
ard Pass, Giuseppe Motta, thrice Pres
ident of Switzerland and for 10 years
its foreign minister. ascrihes his sue
cess in life to his belief in divine power.
He Is one OF the best known and most
respected statesmen of Europe and is
a living example of the truism that the
possession of wealth is not essential
to success in the higher forms Of po-
litical life.
Mr. Motta is poor man. his salary
is less than $4,000 a year That means
a good deal of calculation when you
realize that Mr. Motta is the father of
10 children and that he has no con-
siderable private income
For about 10 years practically the
same men have made up the Federal
Council Of Switzerland which conducts
the affairs of the land. Although Mr..
Motta has served three times as Presi-
dent. he has never relinquiShed his post
as chief Of the political department.
which corresponds in other countries
to the position of foreign minister. or
secretary of state. In Switzerland may
be said to reign the dictatorship of the
people as expressed in the constant re-
election Of men in whom the people
have found they can place their entire
confidence.
Once Obscure Country Lawyer.
From an obscure country lawyer, Mr..
Motta has become a great juriSt. BY
his unfaltering belief in the greatness of
his country and in the justice of its
cause, he has fashioned as 1t were,
its destiny throughout the trying years
of the war and In the ensuing days of
reconstruction, so that Switzerland
stands out today a sturdy figure among
the nations of Euorpe. nesting secure
ly In her mountain peaks, proclaimed
neutral nation by the great powers
in case war again ravages Europe.
AS for Mr.. Motta. who leads the
simple life he certainly incarnates the
doctrine that a nation may happily
and prosperously exist even If composed
of people of widely different nations.
There are two ruling passions in the
life Of MFR. Motta. The first is his deep
religious sense. The second is his pro-
found conviction that under a just and
equitable form Of government, where
the voice of all the people may be
heard, all nationalitieS may live to-
gether in peace and harmony
Mr.. Motta Is a Roman Catholic and
devout chuTchgoer. One Of his daugh-
tiers recently entered a convent.
Says Service Brings Happiness.
Like the late Dr. Eliot, president
emeritus of Harvard University, Mr.
Motta believes that service is the Surest
road to happiness. To him man that
believes in religion and all that it i'm
plies cannot fail to become a glowing
disciple of service He believes in the
supernatural He also believes in what
he calls the "perfectibility" of man.
Mr.. Motta said to me: II believe
there is world around us which we
cannot either touch or see. Yet we may
find it BY seeking Divine assistance.
We may 60 upward and onward to it.
provided We reach out for truth and
have faith in the efficacy of spiritual
guidance"
He went on earnestly: I'm my polit-
ical career have always sought to see
