Judge Urges Missionary Werk by Church DELAY CHANGE DECISIONS The conversion of saloon loungers by, missionaries was recommended by Judge Stnnke in the License Court to day when he dismissed a remonstrance filed by the Rev. A. J. Creek, pastor of the Twelfth United Presbyterian Church. Soen after Judges Stnalte and Mc Cullcn had dismissed nineteen remon remen strances filed by the Law Enforcement League,. Mr. Creek objected te the sa loon of .Tames P. Dlskan. who Inst Jan uary ebtnincd a transfer from 2801 Kensington avenue te Somerset and Ruth streets, opposite his old place. The changed location moved the saloon about fifty feet nearer le Mr. Creek's church and the saloon entrance faces the church deer. The pastor told the court the saloon might be a uuisancc en Sundays. "Toe Late," Says Judge Judge Stankc advised the minister that the remonstrance was tee late. He snld the saloon would be closed Sun days anyhow, and thut the property might hjvu been acquired ' for some ether business Which would have ic malncd open Sundays. "Yes, but there are men hanging nreund the saloon corner," Mr. Creek asserted. He said his congregation lias mere than 400 members. "In view of the strength of 'your church," JiidgeStaakc commented, "it would be a geed plan te send mission aries ever te the saloon. Maybe the could induce seme of the loungers te join the church." Judge Stanke'H curiosity was aroused when Herman N. Sachs nsked for n bottler's license for 805 North Twenty eighth street. The applicant explained he was in the trucking business, but that business was peer and his ten trucks were ldin most of the time. He added he thought he would make money by bot tling, ni be had many friends. "What are you going te bottle!" the Judct asked. "Nrnr-becr," Sachs replied. VHew about mineral waters and sar saparlllaV" the Judge persisted. Sachs looked indlffecnt, even bored. "Yes, I might bottle these, tee." he sold. His application was held under advisement. Drys Didn't Fellow Law The opinion dismissing the Law En forcement League remenstrances held that no satisfactory objections had been given, that they were improperly drawn, that no signatures were attached and that the pretests had net been filed within the time required by law.

By the Associated Press Washington. Maicli 13. Assailing the Four-Power Tiealv as a "quad ruple alliance." Senater Jehnsen told the Senate today that its ratification would mean net only a recession! from American tradition, but n national sur render under threat of foreign Powers. If the statements of the treaty's friends nrc te be accepted, Senater Jehnsen declared, nnd ubrngitlen of rtic Angle-Japanese Alliance is te be regarded as the chief purpose of the four-Power agreement, then the only conclusion In that the United States must enter the "new alliance" te escape a threat of danger because of the old. "The argument for this present sur render of our ancient policy of inde pendent nntlennl action," snid tSennter Jehnsen, "Is nothing in the end but that one word, 'danger.' The Anglo Angle Japanese Alliance, thi4gentlemcn en the ether side say, exposes us te danger. Therefore, we have no choice. We must accept this treaty. Will Vete Against Treaty "I shall vote against this treaty be cause if any foreign alliance can ever speak te this country with the word, 'must,' then the spirit which made this country safe when It was feeble will have departed from it nnd our record In history will be that in striving te barter our heritage for safety we lest snfety itself." Mr. Jehnsen quoted many uttetance of Japanese and British statesmen, giv ing assurance that I he Aiiele-.Tniiniie-e Alliance nevcr'Tvrnrdlfrcferi against the United States, und asserted if these solemn declarations were net te be be lieved, then this Geverdnmcnt was fol lowing a foolish policy by establishing n paitnership with Powers which hnd deliberately deceived the American peo ple. The piesent conflict in the Senate, asserted Senater Jehnsen, is net unlike that which was ptcclpitated by the League of Nations. "Fer the second time," he said, "the Sennte is nsked te change the foreign policy which has prevailed in the repub lic since p became a nation. "The old familiar nrguments ling out again that we may be forced today te accept what ycterdny we rejected.
