AY OVER BORDER FIRS DEAD mm YORK DF NATIONS YOUTH President Tells Y. M. C. A. That There Is Too Much Shifting of Responsibility Onto Juvenile Court.

LACK DIRECTS TO CRIMINAL CLASS Hope of Future Lies in Correct Rearing of Rising Generation, He Declares in Speech to Convention. Washington, Oct. 24. (P) The present day need of the American youth is "more home control through parental action," President Coolidge declared today In addressing the 42nd International convention of the Young Men's Christian associations of the United States and Canada, Mr. Coolidge praised the work of the associations as "an effort in that direction" at a time when "there are too many indications that the functions of parenthood are bearing down." Pe.scribing the home as the "cornerstone of the nation," the president declared that control of the nation's youth from this source is pref erable "to attempt in rome way" constantly to increase "the govern ment's responsibility for the rearing of children." "To many people," he continued "are neglecting the real well-being of their children, shifting the responsi bility for their actions, and turning over supervision of their discipline and conducts to juvenle Source of Criminality.

"It is stated on high authority, that a very large proportion of the outcasts and, criminals Come from the ranks of those who lost the advantages of normal parental control in their youth. They are refugees from broken homes who were denied the necessary benefits of parental love and direction." Reviewing the founding and work of the Y. M. C. the president asserted recognizes that "wherever there are young men, there Is a field" for Its activities, adding that "probably no other lay force exerts so large an influence upon the young people." It is "Increasingly true that the hope of the future lies in the youth of the present," he said, and, serving this truth, the associations through "countless study circles and in open forums," prepare the youth both for personal betterment and a wiser dis charge of public obligations.

"One of the chief characteristics of Christianity is that it is a militant and crusading faith." the president continued, i "Those who have become partakers of its inspirations and its consolations have been con stantly speaking its truths among their associates. If that faith is to maintain Its vitality that work must go on. Reaction in Pews Needed. "It is not enough that there should be action In pulpits there must be reaction in the pews. It will not be sufficient to have! exalted preaching by the clergy unless there is exalted living by the laity.

Your, Christian associations represents a practical effort to organize and augment In every field the lay forces and to translate the, truths of religion into the life of the people." The president praised the work of the missionary departments of the associations, declaring their volunteers were volunteers who contribute a "most vrHctlral part" of the missionary effort In foreign fields." "Perhaps oue of the most significant results," he continued, "that is flowing from all these activities Is the unifying influence which they arc (ContinneS on Fag Kin.)

UP) "The present year is showing Montana forging steadily ahead and the indications all point to a better year for 1926," said Governor J. E. Erick-on, who arrived from Helena today to receive the Odin degree in the Scandinavian fraternity in Butte.

Arizona Solon Reports on Committee Investigation of Public Lands. Washington, Oct.

24. UP) -Unless the cattle Industry is to be driven from the United States, congress must pass remedial legislation next session, Senator Cameron, Republican, Arizona, declared todayin a summary of his nnmngs as tne result of the senate committee investigation of public lands. Virtually all cattlemen of the west are on the verge of bankruptcy, he said, adding that if something is not done within the next year they will fe forced out of business.

Traced to Restrictions.

The cattlemen's difficulty, he said, can be traced to government restric tions on grazing lands on the public domain and in the national forests. At the next session he declared he intend ed making an effort to get legislation enacted which would give cattlemen the right to lease land on the public domain for at least ten years with the privilege of fencing the property. The legislation also would include the establishment of nominal grazing fees in forests, which would prevent the government from charging 75 cents a head one year and Jl.uO a head the next. "Drift" Fences Championed. The cattle Industry would be in even worse condition, but for Secretary Work yielding to his plea to postpone enforcement of the law requiring abo lition of "drift" fences in the cattle country until the senate committee ihad submitted Its report.

Senator Cameron said. "Drift" fences, he ex plained, were constructed coopera tively by ranchers to prevent herds from wandering over wide areas and to eliminate the necessity of employing large number of herders. If the fences are removed, he said, many 'ranchers will be forced to gn out of business. As measure to safeguard the rights nf cattlemen, Seniitm' Cameron said he would strive to have congress abolish the office of district forest commis sioner and substitute a district commission consist lug of representatives of the cuttle and sheep Industries and the forest service, l'lirtliennoie, he proposed to have the law provide for ii ramher to appeal his case to the courts If he Is not satisfied with the commission's ruling, Instead of having the secretary of agriculture as his last source of appeal as at present.

OP) The Mnetv-sixth article of war under which Colonel William Mitchell of the army sir service has been indicted for court-martial by the war department may itself be brought to trial.

This possibility developed tonight when Representative Reid of Illoins, counsel for the air officer, made public two statements challenging the constitutionality of the article, although he failed to reveal any indication of the procedure he would follow when the trial "The right of freedom of speech 'Is undoubtedly guaranteed by the constitution," Mr. Reid said, "and if the Ninety-sixth article of war abridges that right, it is unconstitutional and void." Truthfulness Not Questioned. In the second statement; Reid invited attention to the that although his client had been charged with conduct prejudicial to good or der and military discipline by Issuing dertain statements In violation of the, Ninety-sixth article of war, the truth of such statements were not questioned, in the "If the construction attempted to be put upon the article by the war department is allowed to prevail," he added, "it will set at naught the constitution of the United States and the army and the war department will become a law unto themselves, which will never be permitted under our form of government." I Mr. Reid asserted further that the war and navy departments had previously, been subjected to vigorous criticism from within and that the statements made by Colonel Mitchell 'are mild, compared to those of Gen eral Hooker, General McClellan, Col onel Theodore Roosevelt and Admiral Sims, which were published broad cast, but no disciplinary action was ever Vikea against them." "Rome endured as long as there were Romans; America win endure as long as there are Mitchells," the Illinois member said.
