Dwight F. Davis, Assistant Secretary :
of War. speaking Itefore the N'ationa!
Defense Division of the American So
cietv of Mechanical Kngineers at a ;
dinner here last night, said:
“We believe the power which will !
more effectively check the main cause j
of war in this hemisphere is for
America to stand prepared."
“Let me stress the fact,” he said,
“that our acts for sane preparedness
do not run counter to any other sound
plans of the Council of Churches, the
► League of Nations, the World Court,
the Council of the American Society
of International Law, nor any other
j* learned bodies to educate the world

toward world peace is one of evolu- j
lion.
Know Kesult of War.
“America will be tlie last nation to
abandon the idea of world peace. We
know the horrors of war; we know, j
on the other hand, that sonte wars!
have preserved nations. While indus- j
irial plans and other sound plans for!
peace are developing along converg
ing lines, we believe that, the power
which, will most effectively check the
main cause of war in this hemi- \
sphere is for America to stand pre- ;
pared.
“It should be emphasized that no j
aggressive action is anywhere con-|
templated in our plans. They are 'pa-j
per plans' in every sense of the word, I
which will not. be put into effect until j
our country is in danger and cannot !
he put into operation until the Ameri
ran people speak through their duly

U. S. TO INSIST COAST
SHIPPING LAWS STAND
Delegates to Brussels Parley Told
to Oppose Move to
Revise Code.
A resolution was adopted by the I
Shipping Board yesterday requesting I
American delegates to the meeting of j
the Inter tational Chamber of Com j
merce, at Brussels next month, to
oppose any discussions looking to •
changing American coastwise laws so
as to admit foreign vessels to the
coastwise trade of this country.
The resolution declared continuance
and effective enforcement of the coast
wise laws is "essential to the exist
ence of an American merchant ma
rine and for our national defense."
and added that the question was a
domestic one, “the discussion of which !
is not within the jurisdiction of the
proposed Brussels conference."
The Brussels meeting, the resolu
tion said, has as its purpose two reso
lutions dealing with flag discrimina
tions, which might open the door to
consideration of coastwise laws unless
steps were taken to prevent it.

HIGH COURT UPHOLDS
PAVING ASSESSMENT
Hoehling Rejects Contention ;
Northeast Improvement Is No
Real Estate Aid.
i
j Justice Hoehling of the District Su- |
| prenie Court yesterday refused a re
i quest of William G. Johnson and othei
j trustees, who hold title to a tract of 4h
j acres on Rhode Island avenue north
teast, to set aside an assessment of
.$6,112.52 laid under the Borland
I amendment by the District Commis
sioners against the property for the
Improvement of the roadway with as
! phalt.
j The court held that tnc assessment
j was properly laid and overruled the
j contention of counsel for tlm trustees
j that Rhode Island avenue at that point
is not a street, hut a suburban road,
j and that the improvement has been of j
' no actual value to the real estate, bqt
| has merely shortened the automobile
route between Baltimore and Wash
ington and has benefited the general
public.
The court refers to the decision of
the Court of Appeals in the Knox
case, where an assessment under the
Borland amendment was vacated, but
points out that was a tract on the
Naylor road, in the Southeastern sec
tion, which passed through an area
rough, hilly and cut by deep ravines.
