Sir Herbert Richmond Says
Next. Naval Conference
Must Meet Issue Fairly

NEW YORK, March 19.-One
Of England's most distinguished
naval officers, Admiral Sir Her
bert Richmond, former president
Of the Royal Naval War College
and often referred to as "the
British Mahan." believes the Lon
don Naval Conference lost sight
Of the fundamental problems of
limitation in a maze of arithmet-
ical ratios.
Looks Toward 1885
He expresses his frank opinion
In the April issue of Foreign
Affairs" published here today.
Looking ahead to the conference
scheduled for 1885, he asks why
no investigation has been set
afoot in any country, to examine
scientifically all the matters
which must then come up for
settlement. He writes:
"Are we again to postpone
consideration until the last mo-
ment, then once more to wit
ness the delegations assembling
with neither common nor clear
ideas, pursuing totally differ.
ent ObjectS-SOme aiming at
security, some at proportions,
some at nothing at alI-and
finally producing an ad hoe
agreement, costly to all, and
satisfactory to few, if any?
Are we then to resume the
construction of ships of the i'm
mense size at which they were
left?
"And if we are not to do
these things, is it not the duty
of all who have any care for
economy or common sense to
study the problem of size in
stead of Shirking it,"
Cites Versailles Treaty
Admiral Richmond finds the
true and original starting point
for allocating naval force in the
strength of the weakest power.
The difficulty is to find a quanti-
tative criterion.
The writer believes that such
standard happens to be available
today in the Naval Clauses of the
Treaty of Versailles, by which
Germany was limited to a battle
ship force of eight ships of 10000
tons each. and while the German
battleship of 10000 tons might
constitute a standard of size,
Admiral Richmond sees no real
reason for warships larger than
$500 tons.

 Make Criminals Woman Police Officials Tells How Young People Go
 Wrong

1 law, so that just before she came to New York she had travelled to various cities of the country to make surveys on their juvenile de- | linquency problems.
 Depression Increases Crime
 Her present position offers her the widest possible scope for her activities, and gives her staff of more than 200 trained workers, mostly men, including policemen, sergeants and lieutenants, and gives her an opportunity to try out her own theories.
 "The depression which has ef- fected all our social fabric for the past year, has had and is having tremendous effect on crime and delinquency" she pointed out. Home life is suffering as well as industrial. Unemployment among parents and the older children of large families increases the nerv- ousness, tension, idleness and pow erty that make home life less se- cure and makes children more dis satisfied. We must recognize this. and meet it intelligcntly.
 Naturally we cannot prevent all crime, any more than health work can prevent all disease. But we can wage intelligent warfare against juvenile delinquence, just as we have against contagious dis eases, and ultimately that will mean a reduction in crime"

SPAIN REMOVES REGAL RELICS

Madrid, (UP)-Many regal rel ics of the monarchy have been removed from the palace of the "Congreso de los Diputados" where the Cortes Constituyentes is in ses- sion, yet other remain.
 The big statue of Isabel IT., which was in the conference room, has been removed, even though it was Isabel herself who ordered the building of the palace now used to draw up a republican constitu- ton in. She was the grandmother of Don Alfonso XIII.
 But the statutes of Their Most Catholic Majesties Ferdinand and Isabella, who laid the foun- dation for united Spain look down upon the deputies ts they discuss the constitHtoin for the nation. And the mace bearers, on both sides of the presidential rostrum, still wear the red velvet jackets and other regalia with the insig- nas of the Kingdoms of Castillo and Leon exactly as mace bearers dressed in the 18th Cen tury, when Isabella ruled.
