T 00 MUCH GOUGING ASSERTS MARSHALL (Continued From Pac Oim is utter folly to believe that it can 'be changed by law. We must seek the peace Of America; seek the prosperity of America and seek the fulfillment of the ideals of America and make a real broth erhood of men. 1 - "But with each individual trying to see how much money he can gouge out of the other gouger, and the gouger trying to: see .bow much he can gouge out of the gougee, we will not attain our real position. "I lam for all kinds of remedial leg islation, but law cannot reshape the policy of America ; the duty rests on the ghcmlders of - every citlien. "It is more for us to care about get ting down to the real basis of democ racy. What we need is men working with their hearts. Anybody with money can hire a man to work with his hands or brain, but the man who works with r the heart is 'the kind of a man most needed today. "America is destined ; to rule this world, but rule with , a rod of peace, not a rod of military power. . and this can be attained only by reaching an understanding of the responsibility that rests on the shoulders of each Individ' u'al and by seeing the light of Chris tianity. "Through the last four years the prob lem of securing rights has' occupied the minds of Americans. We secured our last rights on the battlefield of France. Sow we must aim not to secure rights, but to discharge; duties." i " ; ,; In conclusion Marshall said lhat with his retirement from public; life close at hand be hoped that his name would .be remembered because he was a faithful American, and Christian, who. during his term of office, made every; effort to dis charge faithfully every duty assigned him.i l Barbers on Strike, But Shop Keeps on With New Employes Mike Rogaway, proprietor of the Vista Barber shop in the lobby of 'the Yeon building, assured visitors Friday that he was runaing with a full sirew and with out trouble.
