"Lawyer's Life Is Acting for Others," Says H. F. Mason
Supreme Court Justice Gives Vocational Talk for University Students
"The lawyer's whole professional life is given over to acting for others —representing their interests, handling their property," said Justice Henry F. Mason, of the Kansas Supreme Court, in the third of a series of lectures given on vocational guidance for the benefit of men of the University last night. "He needs trustworthy, trustful and reputable for trustworthiness he could nct in the long run do con siderable business."
"It is a familiar saying among lawyers that the only thing that will justify any one in entering the prosecution is to enjoy it. There is a fateful good fellowship among lawyers not found between the members of other calls," said Mr. Ames, and quickly get out of their system all rangers."
Two Traits Are Necessary
In speaking of the requirements necessary for the law profession, Justice Mason said: "There are two traits that are of peculiar value to the legal practition—the power to judge and the argument and a knowledge of the law.
The orator has ever been the kind of lawyer that attracts the greatest public attention, while the less prominent practitioner may possibly serve his client well after being guided him timely advice, steering him away from litigation.
Opportunity for Service Great
"But most important is the opportunity for the lawyer to perform a public service. That is an aspect in which the profession is little regarded by the public. The representative, every man, is a paediatr. Lawyers in America exercise an influence in legislation and in governmental matters generally out of all proportion to their numbers. The responsibility of the law firm insurance dialect defects in our job description system is largely theirs."
English Credit Arranged
"Lawyers have, as a body, committed themselves to the work of making law and justice as nearly as possible. Any man nature will permit. To labor as one of them in hopes of attaining that result gives opportunity that should satisfy the keenest ambition to serve humanity," said Justice Mason in conclusion.

Hindenburg Seeks World-Wide Peace and Safety Pact
Chancellor Luther Voice Desire for Peaceful Understanding in Europe
(United Press)
Berlin, April 23—President-elect Hindemur hinders defense's a safety伞 among European nations, continued fulfillment of the Dawes plan, and
His views were made known today by Chancellor Luther with whom the field marshal conferred Tuesday. Luther, addressing a big industrial convention, was recognized as acting as Hindenburg's mouthpiece, and as expressing the policies of the president-elect.
The chancellor expressed his hope for a peaceful understanding through out Europe. Germany, he declared, is entitled to protection against attack. She will not and cannot conduct war.
The hope that the safety pact with France and other allies would be consummated speedily and that the Ruhr and Cologne areas would soon be evacuated war expressed by the chancellor.
"Let us banish uncertainty and lack of clarity in the European situation," Luther pleaded.
Without qualification he announced the continuance of Germany's previous foreign policy. Behind the words of the speaker all Germany recognized that his purpose was to convey Hindenburg's policy to the world.
A "show down" with the allies on the subject of Germany's disarmament was demanded and fulfillment of the Dawes plan was promised.
Berlin, April 29—Police guards were increased today around President-elect Hindenberg's villa at Hamov, giving rise to the rumor of an attempt made to assassinate the field marshal.
Emphatic denial of knowledge of any plot was made at police headquarters, where it was said that the additional guards were to assist in keeping off enthusiastic demonstrators.
Berlin, April 29 — Chancellor Luther, in so many words, demanded that the allies produce the evidence on which they are accused of lying. His speech before the industrial convention was accepted as evidence that Hindenburg will exert his influence to force the allied hand on the matter of non-aggression.
"An injustice done Germany by the allies still exists," Luther told the industrialists and business men who formed his audience.
we have waited vainly for more than three and a half months for justification of the allies' failure to evacuate. They promised to produce this justification, but so far have failed to do so. Instead, we will fail, and the allies will not hesitate longer, but will terminate this state of affairs."
Luther said that a solution of the problem raised by non-evacuation was essential to all Europe. Non-evacuation was a factor of a security严, he pointed out.
