An Interesting
Legal Question
Apropos Of lawyers, the CITY
has been vastly entertained re-
Gently by the duel of wits
between two great lawyers who
are extraordinarily clever, Max
Steuer and ISidor KreSel.
The former was cross-exam-
ining the latter in the case of
the Bank of United States. Both
men are fascinating figures of
the bar, and it was interesting
to note Mr.. Steuer'S advantage
over Mr.. KreSel in the matter
Of memory.
The former has a freak mem
ory, which so retains all the de.
tails Of a complicated case and
all the testimony, that in cross
examinations he does not have
recourse to notes. That is re.
markable.
Mr.. KreSel is not so fortu-
nate. Questioned as to his own
actions, his memory failed so
frequently that the recurring
phrase. Il do not recall" is

But it is a rare thing to have
a freak memory like Mr..
Steuer'S.

Precedent
The case promises to create
a very important precedent as
to the value Of official court
records.

Kresel's testimony before the
grand jury is met in the trial

that he did not say what he
was officially reported to have

Father
I need your quietness today.
My heart is like a noisy
thoroughfare,
Filled with the rushing racket
Of my work,
The rasp of worry and the
whine of fear,
The snarl of hate and moan
ing of grief,
Until there is no place within
my soul
Where may steal away and
rest and pray.
I need your calm.
Your whirling stars are hung
Within the endless solitude Of
space
Your stiffness rings the forest
with a wall
And, far above the tumult Of
the storm,
Above the oceans restless ebb
and flow,
Above the muffled clamor Of
the soil,
Your silence spreads forever,
like a wing;
For so you build-within a
brooding peace
And work your wonders in
tranquility.
Then take my life
And hush its fretful din,
And fill me with your strong
serenity.

LISTEN, WORLD!
BY Elsie Robinson,

Let love flow from me, gently
as the light
That spreads its brightness
without haste or strain
And let my grief fall nat
uralty as rain
That leaves green wonder
when the storm is past.
Help me work easily, as in
the spring
The urgent sap moves softly
on it's way
And builds the quiet miracle
Of leaves.
So let there be
Such calmness in my life
That fear and hate shall find
no place to bide,
And anger, greed and envy
drop away
And leave my soul as cool as
the sweet dawn,
AS orderly as some still sum-
mer noon.
AS peaceful as the night,
hung white with stars.
Great Source Of Life--which
gave me brain to think.
And hands to work and heart
to love and grieve,
Give now the one gift every
worker needs
without which gift all life is
waste and void
HELP ME BE STILL!

I WASHINGTON, Oct. l. The
navy plans TO lay up approximately
one-fifth of the fleet and reduce
its enlisted force by several thous-

demand for a s60,000,0O0 cut in
naval expenditures, the United Press

Under this program, some naval
vessels of all classes from battle
ships to submarines would be with
drawn from active service and left
with only care-taking crews. After
a period as yet undetermined, these
ships would be returned to active
duty and others would be laid up.
1t was learned also that the army,
profting from the navy's example,
will trim its budget for the next
year before rather than after sub
hitting it to the President. The
amount of the contemplated reduc-
ton could not be learned.
