idge, perhaps Is an ideal that car
come only to future generations which
are more perfect than our own"
Writing In the April number of the
Ladies Home Journal on promoting
peace through preparation for de.
fense," the former president says the
nation should take every prccautiou
to prevent war. "of which ADEQUATE
defense is one," and that it also
should take every precaution to pro-
tect itself to the fullest possible extent
from the ravages Of war, IL It does
come" He says the army and navy
serves the double purpose Of preven-
ton and defense.
Strength Should Threaten
Mr.. Coolidge declares the forces re-
qutrcd for adequate national defense
should be large enough SO that others
would see that there would be Z
great deal Of peril involved in attack
ing u.s." and not 50 large that the
United States would feel It would
undergo no peril in attacking others. !"
= mo sure way has ever been found
to prevent war" the former president
declares. Opinions may differ as 10
whether nations with military forces
are more likely to enjoy peace than
those which neglect their defense. In
the last analysis. this is q question OF
dealing with human nature.
Il very strongly suspect that II
there were but one nation In the
world supplied with an army and
navy and, to make the supposition as
strong as possible, II that nation we e
our own, it would not be long before
the other nations had been overrun.
1t seems to me that 1t is almost 4
moral certainty that we should find
some excuse for taking that action.
But KNen We know chit other sc6lliS-
trics liave q considerable ability To
defend themselves. It is human ma
ture for us to regard them with .
more wholesome respect and be more
careful about violating their rights.
u We reverse this picture we can
likewise conclude that If others know
that we are prepared to defend our
selves they will be less likely to com.
NIT offenses against us.
U. s.. Has Advantages
Our army can be small because
We are peaceful at home and far re-
moved from attack by land. Also an
army can be assembled quickly. Our
navy Is more extensive because our
shores, our great commerce and our
distant possessions must be protected,
and 1t takes years to build war

Reform Program ls Offspring Of
Special interests, Veteran
Lawyer Ayers

Springfield, H., March 28.-m-
Clarence Darrow came here YESTERDAY
to lead the attack against proposed
bills for court reforms In Illinois. and
found himself the center OF one Of
the bitterest attacks to be directed
against hi-:a since he attained prom
inencc In the Loeb-Leopold, the
Scopes. and the DR.. Sweet trials.
Darrow was appearing before q
joint meeting of the senate and house
judiciary committees, opposing bills
for criminal court procedure changes.
The bills are sponsored by the Chi
cago Bar association and the judicial
advisory council Of Cook county (Chi-
cago).
The veteran lawyer expressed dis
trust Of courts. He was Of the opinion
that the reform program is the off,
spring Of special interests. The pro-
gram, he said, Is - long step on q
trail started years ago to enlarge the
power Of the judiciary"
1T has been favored" he said, by
special interests, which always are
willing to trust to the judiciary in
preference to some other body. It is
. violation Of the principles Of our
government"
Would Not Allow Time
Darrow said the courts would not
now allow sufficient time for the trial
Of ordinary cases because they had
TO hurry into the hearing Of $780,
100000 cases."
But the courts allowed you enough
time In the Franks boy case, didn't
