Internationalisn, Rampant

America is victim Of internatonalism in gov
ernrnent Never before have the policies Of fed
eral government been SO completely dominated by the
internationalsts
We have president who is a consistent and ar
dent internationalist He appears to be
in providing employment for millions of idle Ameri-
can citizens. His administration shows great energy
in putting over moratorium on debts for the
benefit Of Germany and at the same time the plight
of multitudes of hungry and jobess Americans caus
es small concern.
The president appointed man to solve the I'M
employment problem in America, and Immediately
dispatched him to Germany to find out what was
wrong over there
Charity should begin at home The first concern
Of any administration, national or state, should be
for the welfare of it's own people,
The brotherhood of nations is all right in theory,
but it will not fill the empty bellies of millions of job
less Americans and their families.

The preent economic condition of the country

Too Much Patriotism?

The way of the patriot is sometimes difficult. A
decatessen owner who draped his window display of
bologna with the American flag was promptly drag
ged to court charge of disrespect for the stars
and stripes All his explanations that he thought the
flag would enhance the worth of the sausages avaed
him nothing but fine Judging from the courts ru-
ing sausages have more power to degrade the Amer
can flag than the flag has power to sublimate sau-
Sages.

school rose when the strains of "The Star Spanged

One finds it rather hard to en-
visage exactly what is the Ameri-
can position in regards to partici-
pating in the affairs of the out
side world. The theory of isolation"
seems about to fade from the pic
ture, even in the face of discreet
utterances around Washington that
our representatives in Europe have
been instructed to deal with the
economic side of the grave problems
affecting Europe. The fallacy here.
if one is interested, lies in the faGt
that much of the trouble in Europe
has been caused by political inter
ference with the economic side.

McEvoy Advises
 Young Lawyers
Tells Them That Dignity of Court and Justice Depends
 on Their FunctiOning

In courtroom well filled with friends and relatives of the appli- cants, Judge Frank r. McEvoy of | the supreme court at Hartford on Tuesday admitted to the practice of law in Connecticut, 20 young men, who were formally qualified last Saturday by the state bar examining committee. Judge Newell Jennings and Judge Edwin c. Dickenson sat on the bench with Judge McEvoy during the ceremonies and the mo- tion for the admission of the attor- reys was presented by Allan K Smith of the bar committee.
 New Attorneys Hear Judge
 In a half hour address. Judge Me Evoy advised the new members o1 the bar as to their duties. the stand ards they should strive to maintain and the dangers they should beware of.
 "One of the peculiar things about i the practice of law" said the court in part, "is that the lawyer can not always understand when the client first comes to him, about the im- portance or lack of importance of the business at hand. There Is phase of human nature with which you are not probably yet familiar but with which you will become familiar as you go along. and that is the apparent reluctance to meet facts as they are, to state facts suuarely and accurately; and unless you make up your minds at the be- ginning, regardless of the feelings of your clients, to get at the real facts, YOU are really powerless to give ad- vice. It may be that the matter about which you are consulted would be an unimportant matter, but in that apparently unimportant matter there may lie great responsibilities upon you.
 Tt has been said to the new law years many times by experienced judges that many cases are won or lost before the pleadings are ever drawn: and that is true. No case was ever over-prepared. Occasion ally case is over-tried. but there is no such thing, gentlemen. whether in litigation or in other matters as too much preparation and care. Your duties as officers of this court are at all times to do your parts in upholding the integrity of the courts of justice, and if you, its officers, willingly or by neglect, de-
  posed upon you, then to whom shall we look for the upholding of the re- spect and the dignity of the courts? If there is any place in the world where we should have order and compliance with the orders of the court it is in our high courts.
 Cites Court Rule
 "Some years ago the supreme l,iI a which had to do with the conduct of an attorney in court respecting or ders issued by the court, and with reference to that our court of last resort says. referring to the attor- ney:
 It is not for him to refuse obe- 'dience to such an order because

Keller of 'The Case-Book of the Science of Society"

such exception will not suspend the course of justice. The order will still remain in force and must be obeyed or the suit dismissed, if the authority of the court and the dignity of the state which it represents are to be maintained.
 "A most salutary rule, an easy rule to comply with, because the rights of counsel and litigant are at all times preserved. The only thing insisted upon is order of basic and fundamental rules.
 'In laying your foundation for your practice remember that it rests largely in your hands. It is for you to establish your reputation. Your character, of course, is within your own control. Your reputation de- bends upon a great many things But as you go along bear in mind that your service to your client is limited not by a mere investigation of principles of law, to statutes or legal decisions, but it requires you, in so far as you possibly can, to ac-' quire all of the general knowledge possible. Knowledge is not difficult to carry but very difficult to acquire, and whatever else you may have in
 
 That a man who undertakes the practice of law upon the theory that it is something which requires him merely to do certain perfunctory things is making a dreadful mis- take, and unless this morning, as I speak 70 you, you are prepared to give every last ounce of your strength and of your ability to every matter which you undertake, no matter how seemingly unimportant it is. then please do not begin the practice of law. AS you go along questions will be presented to you which may perplex you; certain things may come up which will raise serious doubts in your minds as to course of action, propriety of action. You will always find the alder members of the bar and the judges and ready to help you."
