The interests of the motoring public
and the motor dealers jointly, the di-

organization. Truth in dealing with
prospective purchasers and truth in
advertising are among the keynotes of
the new code organization. In some
few cases, the directors reported there

more than willing to make the neces-
sary adjustments

part of the code" Paul B. Lum, presi-

provisions sometimes violate certain
sections, but since there have been no
conscious violations so far, we believe
there will be none in the future ad-

ADVISES AGAINST
'BEDEv|L|NG' DRYS
Deets Pickett Warns Political
Parties to Do So "SpeIIs
Disaster"

Advising both Democrats and Repub-
licans to "iet the wet and dry issue take
care of ITSELF" Deets Pickett, research
secretary Of the Board Of Temperance,
Prohibition and Public Morals Of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, warns that
"bedeviling of the drys by a political
party spells disaster"
Pickett's views were contained in a
statement addressed to The Star. under
date Of September %, in which he said
he holds the same opinion expressed by
w. L. Bragg. until recently chairman of
the Arlington County Democratic Com
mittee, that wet Democrats have no
, more right to kick drys out of the party
than the dryS have to try to dismiss the
vets.
His communication reads as follows
II see by the papers that Mr.. w. l..
Bragg, until recently chairman of the
Arlington County Democratic Commit
tee, yesterday demonstrated at meet
ing of that committee q type of plain
horse sense which has been very infre-
| quent lately.
Mr. Bragg, it seems, holds an opin-
ion, which I also hold-that the wet
members of the Democratic party have
| no more right to try to kick out the dry
| members of that party than the dry
members have to try to dismiss the vets.
| 1t is theory which might be applied
| without discrimination to both of the
parties
The simple truth is that year in and
year out the bedeviling Of the drys by
political party spells disaster. There
are not dozen States in this Union
where the Democrats will stand any
show whatever to carry an election if
they have succeeded in making the drys
mad enough to stay at home, and the
same thing goes for the. Republicans.
These are abnormal times and pa
triotic dry Democrats are sticking by
the President and the administration as
patriotic Republicans could be counted
upon to do if that party were in power
and attempting the present program
But, like Cousin Egbert. they can be
pushed just about so far, and the best
advice to all political committees just
now is to let the wet and dry issue take
care Of itself and save the headaches
that any other policy may cause in fu-
ture years. rather think that the
| smartest men in both the Democratic
and Republican parties realize this. and
when the time comes that they need Mr.
Bragg and his kind. they ought to re-
member where to find him"

tyrs Is the seed of the church, suggests
that in times of persecution and con-
f1ict the kingdom of Christ has made
its greatest advances My contacts
with men of science, educators, leaders
in the professions and in the industrial
world. lead me to the inevitable conclu-
sion that there is nothing that our age
has disclosed that is worthy to displace
the high claims of the supremest Of
all teachers, Jesus Christ.
Praises Osborn Perspective.
"I am constantly reminded in these
days. of the affirmation of one Of our
greatest scientists, an affirmation made
in my presence by Henry Fairfield Os-
born. What modern education needs,
he said. is a reaffirmation of the ele-
mental imperatives of religion 1t was
a fine sentence, but it contained still
finer germ of truth. The great scnolar
and scientist, with his wide field OF
observation and profound knowledge,
recognized that. indispensable as educa-
tion is. it needs to be tempered and
stabilized by an unfailing recognition OF
the great imperatives of religion"
Il say without hesitancy and my OBJ
servation leads me to the. conviction
that the young men with whom I have
sen1inaries, who are today entering the
ministry. are better equipped than those
with whom I consorted 40 years
ago. I could cite instance after in
stance of comparatively young men
who today, by reason of their intelli-
gent and well-directed zeal, are occu-
pying places of distinct power and
usefulness in the ministry of the
church. One thing that makes them
more fit than those of another period
is their generous knowledge of what is
commonly called the social implica-
tions of the Gospel. BY that I mean,
they are better equipped, by reason OF
a closer study of the meaning of our
Lords great words, to relate the gospel
to the common, everyday needs of the
young men recognize clearly the new
Pulpit Is Not Timid.
"Let me say right here that the pull
pit, as I see it today, is not character
lied by timidity in its frank and bold
attack upon problems that bear imme-
diately upon the life and practical
concerns of the people I am by no
means an irrational optimist, nor, on
the other hand, do I yield to the
characteristic and prevalent pessimism
that has marked this latter period.
Standing at this vantage point in my
life and surveying field that is CO.
extensive with the country as a whole,
I have greater confidence in the sta
bility, efficiency and indispensableness
of the Christian church than I have
ever had in the long years that are
past. If I have any genius Of prophecy,
I predict that a new kind of Christian

sented from its pulpit. Where some
100000 visitors each year visit it in the
spirit Of reverence, they must CLEAN
from its majestic and symmetrical pro-
portions that which speaks of the faith
by which we live. We have attempted,
in its administration. to make it broad
ly comprehensive, and the words OF
commentator that I have heard from
the leaders of Christian thought, repre-
sentative of the Church generally, leads
me to believe that the purpose tor
surely being effected. It's great College

ton of its kind in this country, is plac-

conferences from every diocese in the
land In some three years. over 1,600,
approximately one-third of the clergy
of our Church. have been stimulated,
refreshed and inspired by the ministry
Of this great institution.
Praises School Results.
"Along with this, we have our Cathe-
dral schools for boys and young men,
girls and young women. which are
making their distinct contribution to
the religious character of our youth.
The libraries. with their thousands Of
volumes. are being used by the clergy
and laity alike, from coast to coast. 1t
is a comprehensive, widely embracing
scheme which the Cathedral and its
allied institutions represent"
The bishop spoke with deep affection
of the superb loyalty given him By
clergy. and laity alike of the diocese
over which he presides. He commented
feelingly on the generosity of the clergy
of other communions and the citizens
generally of Washington. and the fine
and generous spirit they have disclosed
in their practical interest and helpful
ness during the 10 years Of his Episco-
pate.
In conclusion he said: "I do not
deceive myself by thinking that at this
period of my life have those capacities
or enthusiasms that belong to youth.
On the other hand, 1 am as ready to
face hard situation. or to tackle diff
ficult problem. and hope with more
intelligence, than was 10, 20 or 80
years ago"
