Lautis Mellon. wais declared to be the of the Treasury Hamilton. Third- term talk |touching on President Coolidge Wwaé declared by Mr. Depew to be fooligh. « “The thifl term is a religious precedent, s¢t up by George Wash- ington, but having no foundation in 1aav,” he said “Roosevelt might have had a third term and several Presi- dents might have served three terms in the White House hadsthe prin- ciple not been so strong. But I do not hold_that Coolidge will be serv- ing'a third teérm if re-elected ‘in Depew recalled his first visit | Charlesto to Washington in 1863, when, as sec- retary, of state for New York, he came to the war-ringed Capital to secure the names and addresses of voters in New York State, “1 spent the Winter here that year, in the mud and squalor of an unlovely Capital,” Mr. Depew said. ‘“‘Pennsyl- vania avenue was little more than a mudhole. Down below where Potomac Park blooms and the Washington Monument stands. was then a morass of quagmires and marshes, partly cov- ered with water at high tide. There was little above K street in Civil War days, and Pennsylvania avenue was crowded with saloons and gambling Depew deelared that the City of vashington has the finest foundation of any world capital in the L'Enfant plan for its development. *“It should be carried out as drawn, adapted to modern conditions,” the “former Sena- tor said. Views Unbiased. A man of his age, Mr. Depew said, occupies an advantageous position as a mmentator on p ng events. “When you are in the 90s you have no bias, and you have no poli- tical ambition, Therefore you can take a elear view of any situation | Si and appraise it at its true value. You are on the shelf, politically speaking, and can_speak your mind without fear or favor. No one is afraid of you.” Returning to New York politics, the political school in which he was a student for so many years, Mr. De- yew declared that Al great dexterity and true leadership ng on the Marshall inquiry, i led to reveal deroghtory facts, and so utilized it that his position is stronger than ever. “I have known Al Smith since he * he said. “I watched him y struggles from to one v showed the true s gre atic convention will r stand on the religious is tainty that he can car v York State.’ iith entered the presidential race Compound Interest Paid on Savings Accounts B curtail it. mith has shown |/ great handicaps. He was a product of Tammany and he is a Catholic. On both thess matters he has come forth with a clear and con- cise declaratioh that leaves a favorable reaction to the man.” Favors Tariff Wall. Mr. Depew said that although Eu- rope is certain to go forward in an economic way with the new trend to- ward erasing international lines for the good of European business, the United States should retain its tariff all. “ve need a protective tariff to use as a club, but Europe should abolish high tariffs as between nations on that continent for their own good.” Mr. Depew has always been a hig ariff m: Never in the history of the United States have such business opportun- ities been opened and prosperity been so high, Mr. Depew said. Part of this, | he declared, is due to the absolute freedom of business intercourse be- tween 48 Stat nd part to the lesson of thrift the American people are learning. i Mr. Depew said the American girl is the same unspoiled girl her grandmother was 60 and 70 years ago, and any charge that she is wild |and immoral is untrue. “She has adapted herself to changed conditions and largely led them,” he d, “but she is essentially the same girl as her grandmather was.” Mr. Depew is well and vigorous for an of his ad od years.

Limits Are Defined. “A peace officer is a person desig- nated by public authority, whose duty it is to keep the peace and arrest per- sons guilty or suspected of crime,” the restatement of the law drafted by a committee of the institute declares. Beyond the legal exercise of these powers, the institute holds, the law officer shall not go. * The institute further defined the law as follows: “The use of force against another for the purpose of effecting an arrest or recapture of the other. or of maintaining the ac- tor's custody of him, is not privileged if the means employed are in excess of those which the actor reasonably believes to be necessary.” If the means employed by th2 aetor, with respect t) the foregoing, are in excess of those which he is privileged to use, it is further cCeclared: “(a) The actor is liable for only so much of the force as is exces..ve.; (b) the other’s liability for the use of any unprivileged force against the actor is not thereby afected; (c) the other has his normal privilege to de- and himself against such excessive force.” With respect to so-called “thir, degree” methods and other abuses G compel the admission of guilt, the comment in the prepared draft states: “Any person who has lawful cus- tody of anothep who has been law- fully arrested fay question the other as to the offense for which he is ar- rested or any other crime, but the other is privileged to refuse to answer. Such person may not compel the other against his will to anhswer such questions or to do any act for the purpose of showing his guilt or innocence. Thus, neither the person arresting the other or any person to whom the custody of the other if lawfully intrusted may for such pur- pose use force against the other o] unduly prolong the other’s imprisor ment or in any other way use the power which his custody gives him over the prisoner. This includes tor- ture, and physical and mental hard- ship imposed under the so-called ‘third degree.” . “On the other hand, one who has lawful custody of another who has been lawfully arrested is privileged to use such force as is reasonaBly necessary to search the other for the purpose of securing evidence of the crime for which the arrest is made or for the purpose of protecting him- self or third persons or to prevent the other’s escape as where he reasonably suspects that the other is in posses- sion of a concealed weapon or of some article which he might use to effect his escape.” The draft on the subject of torts, which included the restatement of the law on arrests, etc., was prepared by Prof. Francis H. Bohlen of Harvar@ University Law School, who had col- laborating with him Justice Rousseau A. Burch of the Supreme Court of Kansas; Prof. Herbert F. Goodrich of the University of Michigan Law School; Prof. James P. Hall of the Automobile lamps to be lighted one- half hour after sunset. * Condition of the Water.

The Calverton group showed the Civil War period, Gen, Turner Ashby and his men and the Black Horse Cavalry. The Remington group showed the recon- struction days, voters taking the iron- clad oath at the polls and trial of one who refuses, with other scenes. The Marshall group gave the modern period, a symbolic dance of chiliren, the World War service men and Cross work. In this section was the health pageant, after which the five- point children of the county, each wearing a star, marched by the Queen of Health and received the awards.
