Noted Engineer Breakfasts
Address Urging Aid for Un-
derpriviIeged Class.

An appeal for the "underprivileged
boys" Of the country was made by John
Hays Hammond, noted engineer and
adventurer. In radio talk last night
broadcast over station WRC. His talk
was made in connection with the work
OF the boys clubs throughout the coun-
try, in which Mr.. Hammond is deeply
interested and to which he has con-
tributed much time.
During half Of a boys adolescent
years he has the opportunity to go
bad" Mr.. Hammond said. but it re-
quires five years to develop him into
a criminal"
In the category of the "underpriv-
ileged," he declared, "are the boys who
are deprived of proper parental super
vision. 1t constitutes about two-thirds
of the entire boy population Of this
country and particularly those boys
whose parents are aliens, with no ade-
quate conception of the political and
social institutions of our Nation"
Need Of Recreation Cited.
sowing to the congested condition
of their homes, underprivileged boys
must find recreation in their hours Of
leisure upon the streets of the COM
munity in which they live. The hours
Of leisure, which are nearly one-half
Of the hours of early adolescence, is
the dangerous period in the boys life.
THE boy in the street is detached
and unless some other motive, such as
a boys club. prevails, the gang gets
him and he is exposed to the evil in
fluence of gang leaders, usually older
and Of the pronounced criminal type,
who divert his youthful energy and
love of adventure to pranks that soon
lead to misdemeanors.
Manhattan Conditions Outlined.
"In the borough of Manhattan there
are 100000 boys whose average age Is
10 years. The boys that go wrong will
not all become criminals in day but
during five-year period. AS the tend
ency toward crime develops in boys of
the underprivileged class. at least one
half Of that number will have been
registered in police blotters for some
offense against law and order"

HARDY IMPEACHME
HEARING GOES OVER
Prosecution and Defense Given
Until Tuesday to Prepare
for Final Stages.
~ the Associated Press.


\ SACRAMENTO, Calf, April 22-
Adjournment until Tuesday OF the
Impeachment Court trying Superior
Judge Carlos S. Hardy has given de-
tense and prosecution forces an oppor-
tunity to prepare for the final stages OF
the case.
Several witnesses on the defense list
had not been called when the court adj
iourned for the week end. Whether
Asa Keyes, former district attorney Of
Los Angeles County and now under SEN
tence on bribery conviction, would
be called here to take the stand was
raised just before adjournment.
The defense obtained permission to
read Keyes' testimony before q legis--
lative committee which investigated
Judge Hardy'S connection with the legal
affairs of Aimee Semple Mcpherson,
evangelist. This was granted over the
objection of prosecuting officials, who
limited that Reyes might be called be-
fore the Impeachment Court as a re-
buttal witness.
Keyes testified at the legislative hear
ing that Judge Hardy had not Influenced
him during the district attorneys inves-
tigation of Mrs. McPherson's kidnapping
story. The testimony was read into the
Impeachment Court record. The i'm
parchment case was the outgrowth OF
>sthe legislative hearing, Judge Harding
having been charged with misconduct In
accepting $4,000 from the evangelist
about the time her story was being In
vestigated.

HICHLICHTS OF SPEECH

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 22.-Here are
some pungent expressions used by Presi-
dent Hoover in his law enforcement adj
dress today at the annual luncheon Of
the Associated Press:
If a law is wrong, its rigid enforce
ment Is the sureSt guaranty Of its re-
peal. If a law is right. its enforce
ment is the quickest method for COM
polling respect for 1t. 81
No individual has the right to de-
termine what law shall be obeyed and
what law shall be enforced.
Respect for law and obedience to law
does not distinguish between Federal
and State lawS-it is a common con-
science.
In our desire to be merciful the pen
dulum has swung in favor of the pris-
oner and far away from the protection
of society.
The sympathetic mind of the Ameri-
can people in its overconcern about
those who are in difficulties has swung
too far from the family of the MUIR
dered to the family of the murderer.
If, instead Of the glamour of romance
and heroism which our American mag
NATIVE minds too frequently throw
around those who break the law, we
would invest with little romance and
heroism those thousands of officers who
are endeavoring to enforce the law it
would teelf decrease crime.
If law can be upheld only by enforce
ment officers, then our scheme of gov
eminent Is at an end.
I am wondering whether the time
has not come to realize that we
are not suffering from an ephemeral
crime wave, but from subsistence Of
our foundations.
1t is unnecessary for me to argue the
fact that the very essence of freedom is
obedience to law; that liberty itself has
but one foundation, and that Is In the
law.
A surprising number of our people,
otherwise Of responsibility in the COM
munity. have drifted into the extraor-
binary notion that laws are made for
those who choose to obey them.
Our law-enforcement machinery is
suffering from many inf1rmities arising
out of its technicalities, its circumlo-
cutionS, its involved procedures, and,
too often, regret, from inefficient and
| delinquent officials
Twenty times as many people in pro-
portion to population are lawlessly killed
IN the United States as in Great Britain.
In many of our great cities murder
apparently can be committed with i'm
punity.
What We are facing today is the DOS
sibility that respect for law as law is
fading from the sensibilities Of our peo-
pie. ~
The duty to enforce the law rests
upon every public official and the duty
to obey 1t rests upon every citizen.
After all, the processes of criminal
law enforcement are simply methods of
Installing respect and fear into the
minds of those who have not the intel
ligence and moral instinct to obey the
law as matter of conscience.
The real problem Is to awaken this
consciousness, this moral sense, and If
necessary to segregate such degenerate
minds where they can do no future
harm.
Such commission Con law enforce
ment) can perform the greatest service
to our generation.

Everyday Psychology
BIZ DIR. JESSE ". srRowLs.
The Value Of Repressions.

One cannot read much of the So
called new psychology choanaly-
s.s--without getting the notion that hui
man. beings are poor, miserable creatures
going about the world loaded down with
completes and repressions. The aver
age human being Is pictured as Wasting
away under the burden of his unsatis-
fed wishes" and uncivilized impulses.
This individual is advised to seek the
services OF q psychoanalyst and there
confess his unholy desires and find out
what they look like. 1t is contended
that these repressed desires are SO
frightful that when once their real ma
ture is seen, they are forever put aside;
the individual energies from the Office
OF the psychoanalyst a new person.
There he has been invested with new
sense OF freedom, which will guarantee
health, wealth and happiness.
Let us assume that all this talk about
repressions is true And it Is true in
lots OF cases. But ere not repressions
the very things lot Of people like to
have? Do not some people take pride in
their illnesses? And may not some form
OF illness seem at times to be q benefit
to them? And, finally, may not the
p$ychtcal repressions serve them good
purpose?
There are indeed, sick people and peo-
pie sick. A person sick is one who wants
to be sick. The fact is that if some
people were relieved Of their self-begot-
ten repressions, they would be forced to
go to work-an appalling prospect?
Their friends would quit inquiring about
how they feel from day to day, and their
employers would require that they do a
full days work.
During the late war we found out
what this sort of behavior meant. And
in everyday life there is still good
deal of soldering" going on. People
that is, lots of people-like to soldier"
That is why they resist treatment de-
signed to cure them.

the fragrance that is waited into the
open windows is delicate and delicious.
A fan trellis covered with wistaria or
any plant with stocky trunk and Dark
covered branches suggests the Old World
| trees that grow lattened against walls
where the sunshine plays about them
unhindered. Fruit grown on such trees
is supposed to be particularly sweet and
full favored.
These wall trees require more tend
| ing to train and festen them firmly
| gripping the wall than do the plants on
| a trellis, for the natural tendency OF
climbing plants is to cling to the sup
port.
Trellised arbors can give fine effects,
and in these we find Old World styles
emphasized. To gain such an effect
the trellis should have sections pref
erably round or oval cut away and
edged with wood like frame. Vines
should be trained so that the spaces
are left free The object of these in
terstices is to afford glinpses of beau
tiful gardens or scenery and to enhance
the attractions by coming upon the
views unexpectedly at points OF van
tage. There are charming pleached ar
bors in the famous gardens Of Ken
sington Palace, Londoi., and Hampton

TrelliseS are used to diminish the
