HOOVER SPEECHES
LAUDED BY YEAGER
Practive of Citing Specific
Instances Rather Than
GeneraIitieS Is Praised.

Praise for President Hoover for his
practice of citing specific instances
rather than generalizations in his
speeches was voiced by DR.. Willard H.
Yeager, professor of public speaking at
George Washington University, at
meeting of the speakers unit of the
Community Chest organization Friday
at the Y. w. G. A.
All makers of public statements should
emulate this notable example in public
speaking, if speakers desire to be more
effective in their discussions of public
matters, DR.. Yeager said.
He referred to one instance in which
the President, in discussing the high
wages obtained by the American work.
ingman, cited the number of pounds
of bread and butter that American
wages would buy as compared with the
buying power of foreign wages for posi-
tons Of the same class.
Tell of Relief Work.
DR.. Yeager was preceded on the pro-
gram by addresses by E. Claude Bah
cock. department commander of the
Disabled American Veterans of the

department. commander OF the Ameri-
can Legion.

done by the d. A. v. for eX-SerV1ce men
in Washington, stating that SO per
cent of the disabled in Washington are
unemployed and that the average COM
penSation from the Government Is SAT
per month. He declared that his or
ganization was helping these men to
get increased compensation, TO find
Jobs and, in other words, to hold their
positions of self-respecting citizens.
LESS than IS per cent of the funds
received from the Community Chest
are dispersed to the men in actual
cash." he said. Our men do not want
charity They merely want chance
to make place for themselves, the
same as their unwounded brothers do"
He decried the sale of magazines, pen
ellis and other forms o. polite begging"
stating that in nearly every instance
such disabled men" are found 10 be
impostors.
Outlines Legion's Efforts.
Mr.. Wood outlined the work Of the
American Legion for ex-service men,
telling how the entrance I'll the Legion
into the Community Chest had taken
the relief work out of the hands of
scattered posts and had centralized 1t
under one head. He told of the help
given in finding work for 1urmer SOL
diers and of help given the families Of
those unable to work

declared the great war was the acid test
of whether or not international law was
to be upheld.

FARLEY ON NAVY
POLICY URGED
'Gentlemen'S Agreement by
Diplomats Suggested by
EngIiShman.
BY HENRY T. RUSSELL
United Press STAFF Correspondent

h@ppJAA6lAts lSSot W CAlAbrd EACSSf
LONDON, Feb. 2i.-The Hon.
Joseph M. Kenworthy, labor mem
Der of parliament and consistent
advocate of closer Anglo American
relations, urged an early naval
agreement between the two coUn-
tries in an interview with the Unit
eel Press today.
KenWorthy, himself an expert on
naval affairs, dismissed the idea OF
having naval men attempt the
agreement, however.
"You might as well call a confer
ence Of bookmakers and jockeys to
abolish horse racing as to ask adj
mirals to abolish battleshipS and
reduce cruisers" Kenworthy said.
"Gentlemen's" Agreement Urged
He urged. instead. an early gen
tlemen's agreement" between such
statesmen as Lord Balfour, Ram
say Macdonald, Lord Cecil and Sir
John Simon and men of correspond
ing caliber from the United States
men whose verdict neither country
would challenge.
1--WE should realize that the fu-
ture of world peace is greatly de-
pendent on Anglo-American accord
because we are the only two nations
able to afford great navies," said
KenWorthy.
obviously, if England and Amer
lea disagree on naval affairs, the re-
suit, will be that both will pile up
ornaments. On the contrary, if they
agree, then they can limit, if not
abolish them.
Repeatedly I have insisted that
American ships are not a menace
but on the contrary a safeguard to
world peace because they defend the
freedom of the seas which consti-
tute both British and United States
interest.
No Reason for Big Navy
Indeed, if statesmen instead OF
admiralS conferred, we would find,
firstly, the real cause of Anglo
American differences on this ques-
ton of freedom Of the seas, in
which piratical nations must not be
allowed to run amuck through our
shipping.
Furthermore, secondly, if they
argued the point, they eventually
would be bound to ask themselves
against which 'piratical nations
they would require such formidable
ornaments. Likewise, am con-
WINGED they would be unable to
name this mysterious anonymous
future enemy.
Thirdly, they would be bound to
conclude that since the Kellogg
pact, navieS must be regarded
merely as police forces"

TO Be MADE BY
new FILM FIRM
Miniature Hollywood to Be
Established Close
to Paris.

BIZ United Press
PARIS, Dec. 10.-Robert T. Kane,
Hollywood motion picture producer
announced today the oganization of
a Franco American film company,
capitalized at 250,000,000 francs
(s10Y000,000) TO produce al-French
talking pictures.
The new company will start pro-
duction in March and plans to re-
lease its first picture before April
Is. All actors will be French. The
company's studios will be located at
Joinville, outside Paris, where it is
planned to establish a miniature
Hollywood.
Kane's announcement follows
closely repeated protests in the
chamber of deputies against the
preponderance of United States
films and the frequent kissing OF
American talkies in French moving
picture theaters, because audiences
do not understand English.
In a discussion of the budget in
the chamber late Monday, Deputy
Yvon Delbos attacked the pre-
ponderance Of American films in
France, especially the talking films
which he characterized as a
tmenace to French art"
He urged that since the United
States had refused entry of good
French wines that I'VE show our
selves equally hospitable to Amer
ican films"
