Journalists speaking for the public opinion in Great Britain and France last evening asserted before President Hoover and the American Society of Newspaper Editors that success of the world peace movement depends upon the co-operation of the United States. H. Wickham Steed, formerly editor of the London Times; Andre (Pertinax) Geraud, political editor of the Echo de Paris, and Rollo Ogden, editor of the New York Times, were speakers before the annualsanquet of the society whose remarks were available for publication. Hoover Hears Forelgn Views. President Hoover heard Mr. Steed de- clare that Great Britain still does not know whether the Kellogg pact is “worth the paper it is written on,” that Great Britain is asking for a re- sponsible person in the United States w say that this Nation will not count as friend “any nation” that resorts to War unless and until every means for amicable settlement of differences is exhausted. President Hoover also listened as Geraud, prominent as a spokesman for the nationalistic viewpoint, asserted that in the past France has been led by her friends in this country to ex- pect things not delivered. Mr. Hoover delivered an address. He spoke extemporaneously and in com- pliance with the policy of the society his remarks were regarded as confl- dential. Mr. Steed, who was an observer at the London Five-Power Conference and left London to attend the editors’ meet- ing, declared that peace has not been established because the nations llwlyl ed, non-war, “a minus quantity.” Scientific Mass Murder. “You cannot argue a minus quantity,” he asserted. “War in the future, that next war you hear talked about, will be a scientific method of mass murder. Cities like London, Berlin and Paris probably would be destroyed in the first few days of hostilities. It is the in- herent stupidity of war that arouses horror of mankind. “If we dethrone this thing,” he said, “we must put peace, not non-war, in its place.” This will not be possible he added, unless economic citizenship is established along with political cm- zenship, so that the citizen has a stak in his government. “The one question on which the Lon- don conference was nearly wrecked was, workmanship is and see that nothing but the best materials and workman- ship are put into the structure. If you are an outstanding man and have served an employer faithfully and intelligently you will not be allowed to leave the concern unless you get an op- portunity which promises €0 much that your employer cannot afford to match it his own business. The natural course is for the employer to give or sell you an interest or partnership in the business. ‘The next article in this series will appear tomorrow, it being a discussion of social welfare by Lillian Wald.

By the Associated Press. DAYTON, Ohio, April 19.—Attempts were being made here tonight to verify mysterjous reports of the deaths of Maj. Robert C.

For his work in exposing in connee- tion with tariff lobbying activities the presence in Senator Hiram Bingham’s office of Charles L. Eyanson, paid em- ploye of the Connecticut Manufacturers’ Association, John A. Kennedy of Uni- versal Service, was awarded the 1929 Pugsley prize for the most noteworthy work by a Washington correspondent, it was announced today. Norman W. Baxter, president of the National Press Club, made the an- nouncement at the closing meeting of the American Society of Newspaper Edi- tors yesterday in presenting the report of the club’s committee on journalistic awards. ¢ The award carries a prize of $1,000. It was offered by Chester D. Pugsley of Peekskill, N. Y., former Representative, and was administered by a jury of five whose members were Marlen E. Pugh, editor of Editor and Publisher; Theo- dore P. Noyes, editor of The Evening Star; Roy P. Roberts, mana ing editor of the Kansas City Sta Grafton Wilcox, assistant managing ed! tor of the New York Herald Tribune, and Dr. Henry Grattan Doyle, dean of the law division, Columbian College, George Washington University. Several Get Honorable Mention. “The committée's announcement said that factors which led to the award to Mr. Kennedy included the “definite public service” rendered in bringing about the general inquiry into lobbying, and the repertorial resourcefulness shown by Mr. Kennedy in that he per- sistently followed up the original “tip” concerning Eyanson's presence at Capitol. The result of Mr. Kennedy's work was that Senator Bingham, Republican of Connecticut, received the formal cen- sure of the Senate for his conduct. Several correspondents were flven honorable mention after consideration by the jury of such factors as public service, repertorial resourceft , clar- ity of presentation to the reader, liter- ary quality and the nature of conditions under which the work was done. ‘The jury commended the work of Wilbur Forrest of the New York Herald Tribune on the basis of his day-by-day o The report ol the fatal accident came | work In bringing out facts on the’ low al [ehaffie, v tariff lobbying side of the Senate situa- tion, which one of the judges pointed ‘Miss_Mehaffe said she and | out was a task made more dimeult by Maj.

What are navies for? Mr. Steed said. He said that it seemed inconsistent that nations urging world peace should con- cern themselves with the size of navies except as to insure the protection of sea-bound commerce. “You have claimed parity of s'.ru: '.h" he said, “and on that day you parity of responsibility no one will clul- lenge you.” In that connection he as- serted that the United States is en- tangled in European affairs, through financial considerations and the in- terests of foundations such as the Car- negie and Rockefeller Foundations. But the desire of the British people for the co-operation of the United States in an active prosecution of peace does not mean, he said, that it is hoped to drag this Nation into the World Court or League of Nations through the back door. “We are not certain we want you in the World Court,” he said, amusedly. The community of nations, of peoples rather than governments, has as a foundation stone responsibilities similar to community of citizens, he ull. “No nation shall have a right to judge its own acts in an interna- tional community,” he said. Asks Definite Stand. “That is the true basis of peace,” Mr. Steed said. “The clearing away of war is only a preliminary step. Before that day comes we should know where the nations stand; where the United States stands. How soon can we know that any nation, whether in the League of Nations or not, will be told by the United States that it cannot claim it for a friend unless it adopts every means of settling disputes before resorting to ‘war?” Mr. Geraud paid tribute to the Amer- ican press and said that the journalist must present the facts, despite hard- ship and harsh treatment. It is his function, he said, “to perfect the path the statesman of the day may not be able to take”; his duty to show the way. The P‘rench Jjournalist, commenting on the difficulties enco\mgred I:gml:; ropean newspapermen g8 g official news, paid tribute to President Hoover for his statements to the press and lauded the bi-weekly press con- ferences the President has with press Tepresentatives. Mr. Ogden discussed the affiliation of the press with the government. He said that in his'time there has been a great emancipation from partisan con- trol. “A free press in a free country is essential,” he said, "both independent and interdependent.” The whole sub- Ject of the relation of the two might be summed up, he said, in the statement that Government without newspapers is intolerable; government with newspa- pers is endurable and government by newspapers would be worse than futile.” Held in New York by Fog.

EDITORS T PAY HOMAGE TO STONE Pilgrimage to Washington Cathedral Will Be Made by Directors Today. ‘Today was set aside by the American Society of Newspaper Editors for a solemn piigrimage to honor one of ‘the foremost men in the profession—the late Melville E. Stone, founder and former general manager of the Asso- ciated Press. Headed by Walter M. Harrison, presi- dent/of the society, the board of direc- tors of the society will journey to the Washington Cathedral, accompanied by two distinguished foreign journalists, Andre Geraud, political editor of the Echo de Parls, and H. Wickham Steed, former editor of the London Times. Yesterday Mrs. Stone and her daugh- ter, Miss Elizabeth Stone, viewed the memorial tablet in Bethlehem Chapel to the great American newspaper man, near where his ashes rest in the chapel's crypt. In loving memory they placed flowers beneath it. Today the editors, many of whom he knew per- sonally, will place a floral tribute at the last resting place of Mr. Stone. The society’s original program called for the pilgrimage to take place yes- terday, but as fog prevented the ship of Mr. Geraud and Mr. Steed from dockmz in time in New York, the event as postponed until today. The dis- nngumhed foreign editors arrived in Washington last night. The bronze tablet to Mr. Stone’s memory, located in the west wall of Bethlehem Chapel, bears the inscription “1848-1929. Melville Elijah Stone. A Great Journalist. ‘The Truth Shall Make You Free’' St. John 8:32." neath the tablet is a pedestal a permanent wreath. President Hoover and other high offi- clals of the Government and those of foreign nations participated in the cere- mony, at which the ashes of Mr. Stone were committed to the erypt of Bethle- hem Chapel last March. SENATOR COLLAPSES ST. HYACINTHE, Quebec, April 19 () —Senator Georges Casimer Des- saulles, 102 years old, died today from shock resulting from the loss of his home by fire Thursday. The senator collapsed during the ex- citement and physicians said the strain was_too much for his advanced years. He had been in good health before the | fire. the noble experiment again was sh tered.” President Joins in Laughter. President Hoover joined in the laugh- ter and in & moment the editors and their guests raised glasses of water in a toast to Mr. Hoover. Senators Capper of Kansas, Allen of Kansas, Vandenberg of Michigan and Robinson of Indiana, all publish- ers, attended the dinner. The society made known it had hoped to have a German journalist present and in the absence of a newspaper man the Ger- man press was represented by the Am- bassador, Friedrich W. von Prittwitz und Gaffron. The audience applauded vigorously when he was introduced. Fred Fuller Shedd of the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin was elected president of the society by the board of directors at the closing business meeting. Paul Bellamy, Clevellnd Plain Dealer, was chosen first vice president and Grove Patterson, Toledo Blade, second vice president. E. 8. Back, Chicago Tribune, was re-elected treasure and Marvin H. Creager, Milwaukee Journal, re-elected Mr. Steed and Mr. Geraud were held | secrta: in New York more than 12 hours on ac- count of fog in the harbor, not being able to leave the boat, and they arrived barely in time to appear on the pro~ gram. Whfle Mr. Geraud was speaking of the hopes France had entertained in re- sponse to earlier expressions of Amer- ican opinion and referring to France's’ disappointments, the editors and their guests suddenly heard the group singing of 'My Country, "Tis of Thee.” Almost at the moment the Frenchman touched on the nationalism of his countrymen, the delegates to the National Society, Daughters of the American Revolution, who were holding their annual dinner in an ldjoinin! room in the Willard Hotel, sang the patriotic song, not g, o course, what was progress elsewhere. The. !dl'nl"l drank a toast to Presi- dent Hoover. Before proposing “the only toast we drink” Walter M. Har- rison, the society's .retiring president, related an anecdote told earlier in the week by Willlam Allen White, Kansas publisher, who was one of the commis- sion appointed by President Hoover to investigate conditions in Haiti. Mrr~Harrison said the commission had agreed not to drink intoxicating liquor while abroad and that the ple was kept to the letter until the commission arrived at the palace of President Borno to be his guests at a state dinner. There each was served a glass of cham- pagne and Mr. Harrison said that when President Borno proposed a toast to “the President of Qhe llnited States” of | Federal and State courts be mads ry. David Lawrence told the society that seven months of investigation had re- vealed “archaic conditions in relation” between the press and the judiciary. He said he was “amazed at petty graft at the very door of our courts” through which n!w!plaer seeking to get coples of judicial decisions were com- pelled to purchase them from some minor official who pockets the money. This official usually was the clerk of the court, who either depended upon this source of revenue for all of his income or used it as a source of additional revenue, Lawrence added. ‘The soclety adopted a resolution urging that State and Federal Govern- ments move to see that decisions of all le avail- able to the press without charge. ‘The editors also adopted resolutions reaffirming _“our opposition to all statutes such as the Minnesota gag law and in prosecution of such laws we fa- vor carrying opposition to the Supreme Court of the United States.

Gen. Lytle Brown, chief of Army Engineers. Officials of the Sun Oil Co. recently requested Maj. Brehon Somervell, the District Engineer for the War Depart- ment for the Washington area, to with- hold action on the application permit. Now, it was learned today, it has been decided to go forward with the hearing on May 9. When the notice of the application was first made public it raised a storm of protest from interested civic organi- zations in Arlington County, Va., from the Fine Aris Commission and other groups. The Sun Oil Co., however, had its defenders, and they insisted that the application should be granted and con- struction of the wharf bequn forthwith. Officials of the National Capital Park and Planning Commission took excep- tion fo the construction of oil tanks be- hind’ the wharf, inasinuch as it was deemed detrimental to the proposed riverside drive in thr. vicinity of Ross- lyn, coming down (rom Great Falls.

Automobile production, based on deal- ers' requirements, was described Jast night by Alfred Reeves, general man- ager of the National Automobile Cham- ber of Commerce, as having just “gone into high after having traveled in second for the past four or five months.” He held that automobile pro- duction was a measure of business, in a radio address over the National Broad- casting Co. system. “We have always sold motor cars best in the Spring,” Mr. Reeves said, “while the truck business steps up with the new construction and increased activi- tles that come with good weather. April Output Higher. “Our radio listeners will really decide the immediate future of the motor in- dustry and general business conditions. If they continue to buy-cars as they are doing now our industry will prosper and s0 will others. April production is well ahead of March. ““Good weather is the real springboard for our business, because then the|y, American citizen thinks of good-looking cars, just as he thinks of good-looking clothes and good-looking homes. The American Nation has always responded to the offering of meritdrious products when coupled with style and beauty. “We do not expect to approach the record production of last year, but the 1,045,000 vehicles made in the first three months compares favorably with 1928. which might be considered a normal year, Seek Uniform Production. “We are trying to have a more uni- form production this year than last, so as to keep labor steadily emplom rather than having nine full months and three slack ones.” Pointing out that more than 4,000,000 people get their living from making or sel motor vehicles, Mr. Reeves de- clared it “when the pioneers of our industry started to ‘put America on wheels’ they certainly developed a great job maker and a most important in- fluence in the creation and distribution of national prosperity.” o ALLEGED “REDS” J_AILED AFTER CLASH WITH POLICE Four Men and Woman Held in Demonstration at U. 8.
