Promotion Of Peace
 Needed By Country
Publisher in Address For Y M C. A. Opposes Fighting
 War-Peace Secretary For Cabinet Suggested

New York.-Proposal for a fed- eral department Of peace for definite promoting international friendship was made by Frank E. Gannett in an address here yester- day afternoon.
 Speaking for the international committee of the YMCA on a na- tional hookup from WEAF, the publisher of the IF Gannet news papers declared that talk against war, disarmament conferences, preparedness for war and even in- ternational treaties have proved futile in ending war.
 What we want then, he said, is not opposition to war, but def- initely planned and organized pro- motion of peace. "For years have argued that if the smallest frac- tion of the money spent in prepar- ation for war were used in the promotion of international peace, we soon could bring about actual disarmament of the world and take off the back of suffering mankind the unbearable burden imposed by martial preparations.
 No Peace Departments
 'Is it any wonder we have wars when we consider the government tai setup o afll nations? Every na- ton has it's department of war, the business of which is to prepare for war and make war. Has any na- tion a department of peace, whose business it is, not to make war, but to make peace?"
 MT Gannett said that he believed other nations would have to follow Americas lead if we should set up department of peace with a cab met officer at it's head Ion a par in authority and influence with other cabinet members"
 He said we could then develop an international peace conference entirely apart from other interna- tional bodies, but cooperating heartily with them. This council would be constantly striving not to prevent war, but to bring about better international relationships.
 MT Gannett said that such a de- partment and such an international conference could be helpful in set ting economic controversies which have been so prolific a cause of war.
 "Our present manner of dealing with an economic situation" he said, lis for the strongest nation to grab what it can get, thus breeding ill feeling and friction which lead inevitably to war;"

From present indications, he, stated, the affair will ring up it's curtain before a packed house.
 In honor of the great Irish holi- {. day Of the year, the hall will be especially decorated for Saturdays perfOrmance. Green and white streamers, the traditional shamrock and a specially decorated stage will give tho auditorium colorful appearance.
 Nor will the Irish aspect of the day be neglected in the minstrel show program. Many of the old favorites, and several new ones, will be offered in song and dance by the soloists and members of the chorus. It will be a traditional St Patrick's day entertainment but it will be one that will please the younger generation as well as the old.
 The work of the cast has been excellent In rehearsals, according to Director Joseph Lezotte. He predicts particularly fine recep- tion for the chorus of 40 male voices that will be heard as a back ground for the chorus as well as in several numbers of its own.
 The committee in charge is head ed by Thomas Fitzmaurice. Assist ing him are Rev William Wirkus, chaplain; Mago Sheehan, Michael Kitchen, William Dwyer, Francis Fitzgerald, Francis Mitchell, John German, Joseph Kerrigan, Cyril Dunphy, Patrick Garvey, James Kce, James Phelan, Otto Herman, . James Barnes, James Barrett and H. F. McGrath.

CT of legitimate publicity of all kinds through the printed word, through the radio and through the motion picture in promotion of peace and international friendship. He expressed his .disapproval of propaganda which he called "shod- dy publicity" since it suggests an adroit and under-cvoer manipula- ton of public opinion.
 "What a powerful medium would the secretary of peace find in these great agencies of the printed word, the radio and motion picture" he went on, "no longer would printed word and picture hold up national characteristics to ridicule and scorn. The men, women and chil- dren of the nations would come to know each other as they really are"
 Another opportunity for activi- ties of the secretary of peace would be arranging with Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, and similar or ganizations for visits of boys and girls to other nations where they could see how other boys and girls live.
 He paid a tribute to the work of the YMCA and Dr John R. Mott who, he said, "has accomplished more than can ever be measured in promoting friendly international relationships"

CHEVROLET factories arc breaking A records, trying to give America all the cars it wants. 4O00 units day are rolling off the assembly lines. February output was twice that of January. March output, according to present indications, will be three times that of January. More Chevrolets are now being produced than any other make of automobile in the world. And today, Chevrolet is happy to report that all its dealers will soon be in a posi- ton to make immediate deliveries.
 When you consider how short time tho new Chevrolet has been in production when you consider, also, that the 1884 car is not last years model improved, but a basically new automobile, with sweeping changes in design-this production record becomes somewhat of an accomplishment. But, still greater accomplishment, ip our opinion, is the soay that these cars haue au been produced!
 Despite continued nationwide pressure for more and more volume. every car that has left the factories has been built and tested to.meet Chevrolet's highest stand- ards of care, precision and quality. The result: When you place your order for . new Chevrolet, you'll not only get big, rugged sKnee.Action" car-you're also assured of getting typical Chevrolet car in economy, dependability and long life.

Atlanta suburb residents of Bolton, 5
miles from the heart Of the city, in

DEALER CONVICTED
UNDER AUTO CODE
New Yorker Found Guilty of
Selling New Car Below
List Price.
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, August 1.-Gordon S.
Harris, an automobile dealer, was con-
victed in General Sessions Court to-
day on a charge of violating the mo-
tor vehicle retail code. 1t was the
first conviction under the code in the
State.
Harris, who lives in Ridgewood,
N. j., and maintains Offices in New
York, was remanded to the Tombs
Prison for sentencing next Tuesday.
He was ordered held TO enable Dis
trict Attorney william c. Dodge 10
investigate evidence of forgery ad-
duced during the trial
$500 Fine Is Possible.
The penalty for violation of the
motor retail code is $500 fine.
Harris was charged with having
sold to Howard A. Boyd, code investi-
gator, a new automobile for $50 under
the list price. There were two counts
IN the complaint, one that Harris had
offered to sell, the other that he had
actually made the sale.
The defendants case was based on
his contention that he had turned
the transaction over to another auto
mobile salesman, william S. Willis,
part-time employe of a Haledon,
N. j., agency. He had done this, he
testified, after he had learned Boyd
was an investigator.
Deal M 1e In Winter.
Harris had Willis deliver the ear
to Boyd on February 5, this year. At
that time several papers covering the
transaction were signed, one of them
being a receipt for the machine.
The prosecution, through the testi-
mony of handwriting expert, at
tempted to show that on the receipt,
the name Of Harris as the seller had
been erased and Willis name substi-
tuted
The testimony of the handwriting
expert, who declared that several of
the papers covering the sale had been
altered. caused Chief Justice Frederic
Kernochan to order Harris remanded
for further investigation.
