THE EVENING ROME PAPER HITS DRY LAW EFFEC Hoover Speech Opens Wide Field for Reflection, Says Osservatore. By the Associated Press. ROME. May 11.—The newspaper Osservatore Romano, frequently used by says that the recent speech of Pres {dent Hoover before the Associated Press appealing for respect for law opens a wide field for reflnction. Discussing the growth of law violation through prohi- bition, the newspaper says: B “Therefore, the prohibition of wine and elcohol, which, according to i supporters ought to have a decisive moral influence, has instead augmented | greatly the number of crimes. Not that the provision is bad in itself, but the ostentatious disrespect for law to which it gives rise is bad. The problem is of capital importance to civil soclety. De- spoiled of its sacred character, the law, for certain very numerous groups of pecple, appears to be only of the | stronger, who, jealous of their own strength, put themselves above the code. “On the other hand all the stage setting in which the press, the theater and especially the movies circulate the worst acts of perversion and banditry. tend to exalt certain imaginations as to the glory to be acquired in violating the law. President Hoover has well under- stood that in asking the journalists who heard him to divorce from their writings the atmosphere of romantic heroism in relation to violation of the laws. “It is not good to give to crime or- ganized publicity. time when moral debilit; goes hand in hand with decadence of faith, to weaken the power of punitive justice. In every society the powers on inhibition are confided always to religion and the civil authority; if one is lacking. the other must come to the fore. Laxity demands balance for public security.

This committee, through its chaiman, L. M. McVearry, in a lengthy report recommended that every property owner file protest against the assessments with the District Supreme Court. All objec- | tions and exceptions must be filed be- fore May 15. “The committee found that the Com- missioners, representing the administra- tive branch of the District government, would not entertain a protest from the Trinidad Citizens' Association against | the action of the Supreme Court, repre- | senting the judicial branch,” the re- | port states. “The different branches of | the District government are very careful | not to criticize each other,” it adds. | _In addition to considering the | Benning road case, the citizens briefly debated the traction situation and | passed a resolution requesting the Public Utilities Commission to reroute | streei cars on both lines pending a merger agreement. + Thirty-eight new members were ad- | mitted.

Disabled Veterans Would Bar Germans In Chicago Parade By the Assoclated Préss. CHICAGO, May 11.—Declaring that it is still “too soon after the war” for former German soldiers to march with American veterans, representatives of the disabled American veterans have requested the League of German World ‘War Veterans to abandon plans for participation in thé Memorial day parade. The request was made at a meeting of the Germans. The latter intimated they would ap- peal to the Memorial day parade committee, since they already had received an invitation to participate. They also were rep- resented in last year's parade. CIVIL SERVIGE ACT Trade Union League Adopts Several Resolutions at Concluding Session.
