The' President's speech was the third major one' in Ins tour, extending from Texas to Washington, and ending to-morruw.' It resembled more a sermon on morality than a politi-

cal exposition. H e said: “Our modern civilisation must constantly protect itself against he moral defectives, whose objectives are the same, but whose methods are more subtle, than those of their protetvpes of 150 years ago. "We do not change from a free Government Iwhen we aim new weapons against the new deviee s of prune and cupidity.”
