Federation Urges All Citizens to Affiliate With Same Party. NEW YORK, December 14 (#).— Resolutions urging every citizen to en- roll with a political party, that he may participate in the maintenance and control of the Government, were adopted yesterday by the women's de- partment of the National Civic Federa- tion at its annual meeting. The apathy of the average citizen toward politics was deplored by Miss Maude Wetmore, chairman, in her an- nual report. Party government is Jjeopardized and minority rule made inescapable, she said, by the failure of half the citizens to vote at elections and abstinénce of more than half from aiding in the choice of candidates at the primaries.

Cooper Discusses “Character Building” at Y. M. C. A. Dinner. Character-building, which begins in the home, may result in ultimate fail- ure unless it is continued after the young man leaves home influences, it was declared last night by Wade H. Cooper, bank president, at the second “membership week” dinner of the Y. M. C. A. in.the association’s assem- bly hall at 1736 G street. Mr. Cooper declared thai the Y. M. C. A. has proved to be a “helping hand” to young men thrown on their own resources and forced to assume full responsibility for the character- molding process. He attributed much of his success in life to the early train- ing he received as a member of the Y. M. C. A. in Chattanooga. Mr. Cooper is a member of the ex- ecutive committee of the Washington association. He was introduced by Leonard DeGast, associate general sec- retary of the “Y.” Sixty-three new members were on the rolls of the association at the end of thefi rst full day's canvass last night. Inclement weather yesterday impeded the work of the 13 teams en- gaged in the observance of ‘“‘Merber- ship week.” Ojcials are optimistic that the goal of 600 new members will have been attained by Monday night, when the week closes. The team headed by Ramond F. Crist, commissioner of naturalization of the Department of Labor, again brought in the largest number of members yesterday—14. E. M. Willis, vice chairman of the membership committee, presided. The dinner was served by young women of Foundry Methodist Episcopal Church. RABBI TO BE WELCOMED.

Va., December 14 (#).—Ross Wells, State prohibition commisgioner, last night made a state- ment in which he said the recent raid on the home of C. W. Ozenton, Demo- cratic national committeemanat Kana- waha Falls, was made after a prohibi- tion agent “had received what seemed to him to be reliable information from trustworthy persons that a large quan- tity of intoxicants was stored in the Ozenton home.” No violation of the law was found, the commissioner continued, adding there was no connection between the ral” and a statement made by Ozenton in which he said the Volstead act was unjust and also that he favored Al Smith for President.
