Heinz of Atlanta, president of Kiwanis, will address the convention tonight. The principal speaker Monday night at a religious musical attended by 10,000 delegates and Seattle citizens was John H. Moss of Milwaukee. “Each nation possesses its problems and ours of the present period are especially perplexing due to a wide variety of causes,” Moss said. Says World Is Better "Contributing factors to the problems are the greed for gold, increase, of human wants, excess excitement, lessening of parental control, loosening of moral restraints, advocacy of companionate marriage, distribution of indecent literature, superabundance of legislation, lack of reflective meditation, wholesale dissemination of crime news, and the disregard for law. “Nature constantly is preaching and teaching us the wholesomeness of life but we lose its message amidst the deafening noises of a restless world.” Moss added however that retrogression was not one of his accented theories. “I maintain that the world is better today than ever before,” he said, “The most casual analysis of the advance in learning, the development of inventive genius, and the progress in the arts and sciences provides positive proof of progression.”

PUSH WEBSTER CASE Indictment Sought After Court Discharge. Charge of failure to stop after an accident, one of three on which Irving Webster, 1130 W.

Carl Vandiver, deputy prosecutor, said today. Under the Indiana law, failure to stop after an accident is a felony and penitentiary offense. Webster also was freed of charges of drunkeness and driving while intoxicated. Webster testified to striking the car of J. E. Ryles, 73 S. Sherman Dr., and said he heard the scraping noise, stopped his car and seeing no damage drove on. He later was arrested by Ryles and Policeman Bertram Walker at Pleasant Run Blva. and Butler Ave., after a long chase. Judge Whallon said he did not consider the damage to the hub cap and fender of the other car serious enough to be classed as a felony.
