OPPOSES MOVE
TO PULL TEETH
OF JONES LAW
Mitchell Tells House Body
Time in Effect Is Not
Enough for Test.

Bv Tinted press
WASHINGTON, April 3.-Attor-
ney-General Mitchell opposed modi-
flcation Of the Jones five and ten"
prohibition law as provided by a
DILL row pending in the house, in a
letter to the house judiciary COM
mlttee made public today.
He urged adoption of the law en-
forcement commissions program
with minor amendments which, he
said, have been approved by Chair
man George Wickersham of the
commission. Mitchell's letter, which
was confidential, dated March 20,
was not made public until today.
The attorney general said sufh-
cient time has not elapsed to de-
termine the value Of the Jones law
and that the proposed bill, which
was introduced by Representative
Stobbs Rep) and now is pending
before the judiciary committee,
would "emasculate" the Jones law.
One Of Three Bills
The StObbs bill was for definition
OF casual and petty offenses,' be-
ing one Of three measures prepared
to carry out the commissions plan
to give United States commissioners
power to try minor cases as a means
Of clearing up court congestion.
However, Stobbs' bill goes further
than the commissions plan to
definitions. and gives too little dis
erection, in Mitchells opinion, to
prosecutors in the matter Of decid-
ing whether specific cases were to
be tried under the Jones law or
merely as casual offenders.
The bill would modify the Jones
law, in effect, by placing in the
minor class some violations which
now might come under the Jones
law thus drawing the higher penal
ties, the maximum being five years
in Jail and $4,000 fine.
Definition Inexact
"A serious objection to the bill is
the inexactnes5 Of definition"
Mitchell said. TO illustrate, a sim
gle sale includes a barrel as we'll
as a pint. The limits of small
quantities are impossible Of definite
ascertainment.
Assuming, however, that the
definition set forth is sufficient in
the law, the effect of the bill will
be to reduce the penalties for vio-
lations of the national prohibition
act fixed by congress only a year
ago.
Sufficient time has not elapsed
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1930-04-03

to determine the efficacy OF the in
creased penalties and no change
should be made until it appears they
are ineffective or that the judges
and United States attorneys have
not Disseminated fairly between
major and minor violations.

to which individuals in any and every
community are entitled.
1.-The rules of conduct governing In
dividual relations between citizens or
subjects of civilized State said Presi-
dent Cleveland, are equally applicable
as between enlightened nations.
ST venture to assert" said Mr.. scout,
after quoting from Mr.. Clevelands mes
sage to Congress, that Notwithstanding
our vast domain and well-nigh unlimlt-
ed power, we still are, and in the sense
which President Cleveland would nave
us be, an enlightened nation.
Mr.. Scott said that If law is to be
looked upon as IAN instrument OF mo-
rality conceived in the sense OF right
doing" then the law within the group
should be developed under the control
of morality. l. would follow, he said,
that 1.-THE morality of the individuals
within the group should be the morality
of the groups of states forming the IN
ternational community which, there
fore Is and necessarily must be interna-
tional morality in the sense that 1t Is
universal, applying to the individual, the
nation and the international community.
"This is perhaps a strange doctrine to
those who believe that the separation
of law from morality is one OF the tri-
umphs of the school of modern juris-
prudence" Mr.. Scott said. Personally,
think that no greater calamity could
befall us, whether as individuals or as
members of the state or Of the interna-
tional community, than to withdraw
law from morality and to refuse to con-
slider morality as a controlling element
in its development"

mittee, and DR.. George w. Kirchway,
former Columbia University Law School
dean, viii be the speakers at the annual
dinner Saturday evening.
Scott Speaks.
At the opening meeting of the So
ciety last evening the president, James
Brown Scott, delivered an address on
the subject 1.-THE Individual, the State,
the International Community"
Mr.. Scott endeavored to establish the
thesis that the individual inevitably Is
the primal unit of an international COM
munity; that the state is but a second
airy and intermediate unit, and that the
international community, representing
humanity in its relations with the in
dividuals and the union of states in its
relations with the states, possesses "at
one and the same time the right to I'M
pose its will alike upon individual and
state"
In support of his thesis. he commended
that international morality forms an
integral part Of international law and
should control international relations"
He said that, furthermore, "there Is
such a thing as public opinion of the
world to which individuals, nations and
the international community respond"
President Cleveland's famous pro-
nouncement in 1893, in which he set
forth the wrongs which the United
States had committed against the gov
eminent of Hawaii, was cited by Mr..
Scott as supporting the contention that
civilized nation which asserts that
its rights are greater than those of
weaker community violates the rights

COURT IS PRAISED
! !. AS PEACE FACTOR
Work of Permanent Tribunal
of international Justice
Is Explained.

The rendering of advisory opinions
by the Permanent Court of Interna-
. tional Justice, which is under attack
from those opposing this Nations par
ticipation in the tribunal, was described
today before the American Society OF
International Law as larger contri-
button to international peace than that
made by the court through its judg-
ments.
Addressing the society at its annual
meeting, Prof. Manley o. Hudson, in
ternational law professor in the Harvard
Law School, asserted that the advisory
opinions given by the court have had
rs subject matter questions which in
the past led to grave crises between ma
lions.
It is unfortunate, he said, that dis
cusstons of advisory opinions have
created confusion in this country. Prof
Hudson, frequent visitor to Geneva
where the court sits. expressed doubt
that the world can continue its many
agencies of international cooperation
unless 1t is possible to settle legal queS-
lions before such a tribunal.
I6 Decisions in 8 Years.
Pointing out that In years the court
has rendered Is advisory opinions, the
speaker said that at least half the time
OF the court has been given to con-
sideration of subject matter presented
by requests for the opinions and that
in his opinion the courts contribution
toward international peace has pro-
ceeded largely out of that work.
Several papers were presented before
the society in discussion of the con-
tributions of the Permanent Court of
International Justice to the development
Of international law. Wendell Berge
of the New York bar discussed con-
flicts in respect to the jurisdiction of
crime; Robert r. Wilson, professor of
political science, Duke University, dis
cussed the Interpretation of treaties,

NEW YORK, July 31.-Good
news for you who choose your
furs in August. Fashions IA
vorite furs for this fall and win
ter are certainly lovelier than
ever!
AS we see them, the fur
coats of 1890 to 1891 are as dis
tinctive in silhouette as the
cloth coats. They're cut, scanned
and manipulated much like
cloth. So good to look at!
The furs are supple and pill
able. All the old bulkiness has
disappeared. At last you can
be warm and still Look
slim-like you like to look
and not all wrapped up.
IS We said these new fur silhou-
cites are distinctive. SO $ they
are. Individual. Beautiful. But
not exaggerated or extreme.
These new fur coats are wear.
able! Make no mistake about
that.
There's a feeling Of length Of
line from shoulder to hem
as there is In dresses.
There's easy fullness at the bot
tom like dresses.
Some of the more informal
coats have belts to indicate the
waistline as dresses have.
But there are button closings,
too. Or none at all I" just
as you may prefer them.
