CIVILIZATION HINGES UPON MORAL FORCE WASHINGTON, Sept. 24 — The hope of real progress in the future lies in the knowledge that civilization is coming to rely more and more upon "moral force" rather than armies and navies for the settlement of world problems. President Coolidge declared today in an address before the annual convention of the Red Cross in Continental Memorial hall. "The American Red Cross," the President said, "is a spiritual conception of human relationship. It is life in obedience to things that are seen." Throughout history men have been prone to put their trust in other things; and have failed. They have sought for power through material resources alone. They have thought it might be gained by the accumulation of great riches. They have attempted to rely upon naked force of armies and navies conquering by the might of the sword. They are necessary for the security, as police and criminal courts, and bolts and bars are necessary. They are adjuncts of peace, but they are negative forces. They do not create, they resist. They are not the ultimate force in the world. They do not make the final determinations among men. Over them is a high power. "Mankind has not yet, cannot yet, discard the use of these forces. It is significant, however, that the great nations have at last agreed upon their limitation. But it is even more significant that civilization is coming to rely more and more upon moral force." This was Mr. Coolidge's first public address since he became president. As president also of the Red Cross, Mr. Coolidge formally opened the convention, which was attended by more than a thousand delegates from all over the country. Forest Fires Burn over 115,665 Acres SACRAMENTO, Sept. 24 — The fires which swept over California last week burned over 115,665 acres of MRS.

Most of the refugees were destitute, but this was forgotten in the joy of their reunion with friends and relatives. That the destroyer Whipple of the American Aslatic fleet was the first American war vessel to enter the inner Tokio harbor for relief work was revealed by James I. Mills, Chicago engineer. Forest Fires Burn over 115,665 Acres SACRAMENTO, Sept. 24. The fires which swept over California last week burned over 115,665 acres of timber and grazing land and caused a loss, exclusive of homes and improvements, of approximately $2,000,000, according to an official report made public today by the state board of forestry.

She chose the Pacific Coast because of its freedom from hurricanes, tornadoes and other violent storms. She went far South, to get away from winter. She took the range of mountains which bordered the ocean, and buried in the ocean, to make a chain of islands—the meeting place for myriad schools of fish. From the mountain side Nature stripped the richest soil and spread it in long, smooth slopes. In canyon streams, in underground lakes in subterranean rivers, she provided the water to make these lands wonderful fertile. She took the cool, moist breath of the Pacific, the sparkling draughts of Alpine air from the snowcaps of the Sierra Madre and the San Bernardino ranges; and the sun-dried, crystal clear air of the deserts which lie beyond those ranges and blended them to make the wonderful CLIMATE of this region. Study the relief map of California and see the solid granite wall which borders the ocean all the way down—except for the sixty miles of open beaches of Los Angeles and Orange Counties. See how the high mountains rise as a barrier against an incubator to dry and warm the air of Southern California. See how high the mountains rise as a barrier against attacks from the North by old Winter and then you will realize what Nature did for Southern California—and did for no other similar area in the world. Every day of every month in the year is an out-of-doors day in Southern California. From April to November the climate is practically rainless. The ocean sends soft fogs in the early mornings to bathe the foliage in dew; and high fogs to shade the skies from the rising sun, but there is no rain, no interruption to the steady procession of day's cloudless afternoon. From November to April is the "rainy" season, but there is hardly a day when it rains all day. Warm sunshine gives the greening landscape itsers. But the finest climates Southern California aremers.

But the finest climatic conditions in Southern California are those of the summers. The summers are not hot, but cool. Through the day the breezes blow steadily from the Pacific. Through the night and in the early morning the dry air from the interior deserts, cooled by passing over Alpine heights, filters down upon Southern California. If occasional extreme temperatures are recorded, they are invariably drafts direct from the deserts and the air is so dry that the heat is not depressing. The variety of outdoor amusements ranges—on the same day and within three hours of travel—from snowballing and coasting on Mount Lowe to surf bathing in the warm waters of the Pacific. The rugged ranges to the North and East of Southern California abound in wild glens in deep lakes, in foaming streams well stocked with trout. Calm, settled and civilized as are City of Los Angeles and the orange groves and attendant towns, the eyes of hundreds of wild animals every night look down upon the gleaming lights. There is hunting for puma and wildcats, deer, bear, grouse and squirrels within half a day from Los Angeles. Quail and rabbit shooting in season are good. The "bolsas" or tidewater bays along the coast are visited by great flocks of ducks. So Los Angeles is a center for hunters and trout fishermen. Conditions along shore are ideal for yachtmen. Breezes are constant along Southern California's shores, but squalls and gales are absent. The waters of the sea abound in game fish, from amelts, to the great leaping tuna. The Channel Islands and the bays and harbors of the coast are pleasant objectives for cruises, long or short. Golf, tennis, polo baseball football and other field sports are always in season. And every day in the year the thousand miles of velvet boulevards leading to playgrounds on beaches and in the mountains, amid orange groves or green fields, in...
