CLEVELAND, August 5.--An address
picturing the youth of the world as in
revolt against many of the age-old Gus
toms of society marked the opening
session here last night of the World
Conference of the Young Mems Chris
tan Association. The speaker was DR..
John A. Mackay, professor at the Uni
versity Of Peru.
DR.. Mackay said that since the war,
youth has passed from being a "biologi-

cal stage" to Q definite social. class
which has refused to follow its elders
or to accept their world.
Various Aims Traced.
In some countries youth conscious
ness led to passion for self-expres-
sion, especially in the realm OF sex.
LIS some cases nausea was the result.
Or. Maclsay said In other countries
the state Is the new god which de-
mands the absolute loyalty OF youth
Religion is either rejected as o rival
loyalty or tolerated as a useful means
of furthering the national purpose.
The speaker found the anti-religious
attitude of some parts of the world was
caused by falsely associating God with
the unethical attitudes, out-worn the
ologies and hateful economic systems
of many so-called religious people.
4S Nations Represented.
More than 1000 delegates were
present from AZ nations, many of them
in native costumes. Five languages
were used in various parts of the pro-
gram. There we're announcements in
German, French and English, a prayer
in Japanese, and songs in Russian by
church choir.
The principal speaker at today's ses-
sion was to be DR.. w. r. Maltby of
England His subject was HAS Life a
Meaning?"

XWASHINGTQN. Sept. ?. P-An
Exchange OF confidence between the
tankers and the public was declared
Imperative today BY Sen. Fess. re-
publican, Ohio. for a restoration of
business stability.
The senator cited a recent ex-
perience of his own in seeking un-
successfully to obtain money to build
a home. lie expressed his views 10
an Ohio constituent IN commenting
upon complaints of heavy increases
In postal savings.
Must Work Self Out.
1T Is a situation most difficult
to decipher," wrote Sen. Fess. The
country has all the assets it ever
has posed with the single excep-
ton OF confidence. There has been
no great calamity since the world
war involving destruction Of property
or loss OF resources. We have al
the basic elements Of a sound pros
peTity. including managerial ability.
The one thing lacking is confidence
in our financial institutions. How
TO insure this is our problem. X X X
for the life of me / do not see how
you can cure this lack Of confidence
but like the mumps 1t must work it.
sklf out.
vLaSt week I asked a banker 20
ksfn me $4,000 to be applied on the
Behlding of a new house. The banker
threw UP his hands and said: on,
senator. we cannot make any loans
at present. While we are sound We
must remain in a liquid condition
Deposits Continue.
II informed him that it would be
necessary for me to take out my de-
posts in the loan associations. APP
plicationS 10 the three associations
in which / have deposits sufficient
TO build the house met the same
response. This meant that / could
not use my own money. not because
they didn't have il. That is n case
OF several in a small town. That case
is typical throughout the u. S. That
spells the ~depressiCl under which
we are suffering"
The person, who wrote Sen. FeSs,
had called attention that in his Ohio
town since the middle of March a
total of S357.02 had been deposited
in postal savings there.
