KEEP RELIGION OUT OF 1928 RACE Cites Tolerance of Europe in Picking Executives Says Gov. Smith Is Acceptable. Washington, Feb. 17 -As the nation's voters cast inquisitive glances at the field of candidates for President, those of Democratic persuasion are receiving a good deal of counsel and some concrete demonstrations of harmony and tolerance to guide them in the November winnowing at the ballot boxes. The Democratic party's 1924 nominee, John W.

Davis, points to past and present European executives to support his plea that: religion should not be a major issue in the forthcoming race for the White House. Speaking at Columbia, S. last night before the convention of the State Bar Association, Mr. Davis reminded the audience that gentile England had in Disraeli a Jewish Prime Minister, Protestant Canada Catholic Premier in Laurier and Catholic France a Protestant Presi- dent in Doumergue. Says Smith Is Acceptable.

Earlier in his speech he had said that Governor Smith of New York, Democratic candidate, would be "highly acceptable" to him. More counsel for the Democratic party to accept the challenge of issues and not "again fall a victim to its own folly and blither about nonessentials" came from Representative Finis Garrett of Tennessee, minority leader in the House, speaking at Indianapolis before the Indiana Democratic Editorial Association. Senator Reed. Democrat, of Missouri is to be the first candidate of either party to take the stump. He will leave Washington tomorrow to present himself to voters in at least nine States, all of them in the West.

N. Y. SLEIGH WINNER OF OLYMPIC RACE Jack Heaton Beats 5 Nations. First Official U. S.

Victor. St. Moritz, Switzerland, Feb. 17 (P) -The United States captured first ana second place in the single bobsleigh race of the winter Olympic games this morning. Jack Heaton of New York was first; J.

R. Heaton, second, and the Earl of Northesk, Great Britain, third. Jack Heaton's best time was 60 2-10 seconds for one turn of the three on the course, two seconds slower than the world's record, held by the Earl of Northesk. France. Austria, Italy and Switzerland also competed.

Heaton's was the first official American victory, since the awarding of the speed-skating to Irving Jaffee of New York was overruled by the International SkatFederation because of soggy ice after Jaffee and five other contestants had finished. The races were staged over a yard course down the famous, Cresta run. Each pilot made three times. The standing at the conclusion of the race was: Jack Heaton, 3 minutes 1 8-10 seconds; J. R.

Heaton, 3 minutes 2 8-10 seconds, and Lord Northcsk. 3 minutes 5 1-10 seconds. Switzerland today defeated England in the semi-finals of the Olympic hockey championships by a score of 4 to 0. Canada beat Sweden, 11 to 0. Two Cut by Glass When Car Hits Tree Near Park James H.

Lafayette at Fort Greene Place WRITE FOR ILLUSTRATED BOOKLET English Woman Preacher Barred for Liberal Views Fails to Shock Kalamazoo No Casualties Are Reported as Maude Royden Addresses at Y. W. C. Against Companionate Marriages and Birth Control, Though Tolerant of Socialism.

Special Kalamazoo, certain club ladies and tolerance of socialism, London's famed woman By ZOE BECKLEY. Correspondence of The Eagle. Feb. 17-Despite the horrified flutters of high power patriots over Maude Royden's cigarettes and companionate marriage, preacher today addressed a big audience of the Y. W.

C. A. without contami-4 nating or even shocking it. At least, no casualties have been reported. You couldn't imagine Miss Royden an shocking anybody, not even those who are so good that they can think only evil.

Nor replying to them except in kindly regret that they had so little understanding of her and so fauity a Christian spirit. Opposed Lindsey's View. She must have been misunderstood in her stand on companionate marriage. It might surprise the club 1 ladies who barred her as speaker to know that as long ago as Jan. 24, 1927, Miss Royden delivered a sermon at her London church where she is preacher, the Guildhouse, which very much against Judge Ben Lindsey's solution of the mating problem.

"There is practically no scientific evidence," Miss Royden said, "but a great weight of opinion among doctors that there is grave risk that a couple who began by avoiding conception of children cannot have them later when they want them. I think that those who advise young people to enter into such a companionate relationship on the understanding that they can have babies when they want them take a very grave responsibility. Doubts Birth Control Methods. "Moreover, no method of birth control has yet been invented which is certain in its effects." We touched upon the modern religion dispensed at her famous Guildhouse. "I believe Christianity," said Miss Royden, "is the solution of the world's problems, and that it should be proclaimed.

when possible, in a place where the unbeliever may freely express his doubt and the believer discuss his failures. We try to receive and to communicate all the knowledge we can get from modern thought. We offer ourselves to God to be of service to our fellows." Lame Since Childhood. One can hardly express the sweetness of personality which Miss Royden quite unconsciously puts into those last 12 words. She is a little woman, almost tiny, with deep-set dark eyes and hair, with a few threads of white.

She has been lame from childhood and walks with a cane. One might throw a little light on this work by calling her the Addams of England, this same Jane Addams who has been lately discovered upon the blacklist sent out by a military organization as being most dangerous woman in America" and likely "to orate against national defense!" Toiled in Liverpool Slums. She is a deep student of history, literatur, religions and politics and a at Lady scholar with Margaret four Hall, years Oxford. of honors Followed a year of hardest toil in the Liverpool slums as a member of the University Settlement, for which work she paid with a serious illness. Then an old friend, Rev.

W. Hudson Shaw, dragged her to his rectory in a tiny village to recuperate and act as a sort of quasi-curate. For three years she held classes in everything from Shakespeare to scullery work, schooling the farmers' wives in baby care, beauty, literature, poetry, history and even politics. Lectures at Oxford. Her old friend, the Rev.

Mr. Shaw, who had been extension lecturer at Oxford University, proposed re that Miss Royden do a series of addresses there. After talking himself red in the face Mr. Shaw beat down the opposition to the effect that woman's place was and got Miss Maude a trial. She took with the students like wildfire, and worked there with greatest success for four years, becoming known throughout England.

She soon gave her talents and wonderful personality to the cause of suffrage, then became an editor and later pastor of the City Temple. Now she has the Guildhouse. "It exactly suits me." says Miss Royden. "We work there all the week through, and the place just hums. We have guilds for children, Boy and Girl Scouts, the Woman Citizens Society, the Guildhouse Players, a League of Arts, and classes, socials, courses and lectures by many distinguished people.

It is part of our creed that all art that is beautiful and true is religious." Has Faith in After- Life. Miss Royden definitely harmonizes religion with evolution, and holds faith in the soul and the after-life. "It seems extraordinary to me," she says, "that religion should fear science. Don't let us fear knowledge. "Colonel Lindbergh has said he will not give up experimental flights.

Don't let us, either." New Haven Hearing Set for Feb. 29 by P. S. C. There will be a hearing before the Public Service Commission at 120 Broadway, Manhattan, on Wednesday, Feb.

Newark, N. Feb. 17-Mysterious circumstances surrounding the death of Mrs. Rose Mac, 119 Clifford caused police today to question her husband, Joseph, after he had crawled from their apartment, covered with blood, and fallen at the feet of a worker in the National Box and Lumber Company, nearby, muttering: "My wife is dead." Fred Marks, a workman for the lumber company, by which Mac also is employed, called the police. It was found that Mac had a deep cut in the back of his neck.

His hands, face and hair were smeared with blood. He spoke incoherently. Mac's story as pieced together by the police, was that he met a stranger in the street last night and asked that he help him carry home a large bundle of kindling wood. The stranger complied, and when they reached the Mac apartment they started to drink wine. That was all Mac could remember, he said today, until he awok? with a severe headache and found his pillow and his wife's covered with blood.

Detectives found Mrs. Mac lying dead in bed. On the floor beside the bed was a length of strong bundle cord stained with blood. Girl in Poison Pen Case Silent on Future Plans Ridgewood, N. Feb.

Officers of the institution were noncommittal, but it was generally I believed that the young woman would not return. Miss Mowell has worked at the place since her arrest last August, although at that time bank officials came to her defense.

Darwin R. James, chairman of the State Housing Board and a member of the temporary commission to revise the Tenement House Law, in a letter today to Lewis H.

Pounds, president of the Brooklyn Real Estate Board, replies to Mr. Pounds' criticism of the Dwellings Bill, as published in The Eagle last Sunday. With reference to one-family and two-family dwellings, Mr. James points out that the bill requires no change in existing dwellings of that type; that sanitary and safety requirements for such future dwellings, unless they are wooden houses, are moderate and that the regulations for requirements and strength of important structural members in wooden houses do not interfere with current practice of builders. Complains of Inactivity.

"You say that the prevention of further mushroom wooden development is a local writes Mr. James. "If it is a local matter it has been so for five or six years and nothing effective has been done about it. "The architects retained by Commission have satisfied us that the requirements of the Dwellings Bill do effect economies in construction not possible under the Tenement House Law. Your architects disagree.

Our technical advisers have satisfied us that the requirements of the Dwellings Bill afford greater flexibility in floor plan and design. Again your architects disagree. Asks Available Information. "We have had data and plans supporting our conclusions. If those upon which you rely indicate the basis of our conclusions is erroneous, would it not be well to make your information available us? We have received a number of helpful suggestions.

Some since the Dwellings Bill was introduced. Such contributions are welcome and are sure of sympathetic study. "You are not right when you that when the official charged with the enforcement of the Dwellings Law makes an arbitrary or unreasonable ruling, there is no appeal. The courts have heretofore afforded adequate relief against arbitrary and unreasonable rulings of an administrative official. The courts will continue to afford such relief should authority under the Dwellings Law be abused.

Sees Peril in Wider Power, "You indicate you would like to see the administrator of the Dwellings Law given wider discretion. Why? The Dwellings Bill does not set up average standards, but minimum standards. If discretion is given to waive any of them, it can only work reduce standards already deemed to be the lowest consistent with public interest. "I can add but little to my earlier letter to you regarding the wisdom of preserving the unspoiled areas of the city from congestion and overbuilding. This is neither novel nor radical, but a perfectly normal application of the zoning principle to dwelling structures.

I regard this as one the most valuable and beneficent features of the Dwellings Bill, especially from the point of view of Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Richmond."
