Fisher, Boy Scout Executive, A brilliant authority on the youth of America. George J. Fisher. presi- dent of the New York City Kiwanis club and deputy chiee executive of the Boy Soduts of America. delivered one of the most forceful and inter- esting after-luncheon addresses of the year. at the meeting of the Nor- walk Kiwanis club at the Hotel hia- hackomo. yesterday noon. "The Present. Day World in Which tho Youth Lives." was his sublect. lio said in part to the Klwauians: "The present day world in which the American youth livel. is not the world you lived in when you were a boy. or that your father lived in. It is as different as the city is from tho pountry; tho Occidont from tho orient: night and day; and to miss that point of view would be to Ini- sll the needs of modern youth. "It is an increasingly artificial world. it is a narrowing world. The old appeal of tho boy was to tho muscles. The present day appeal is to tho nervous system and to the brain." At this Juncturo of his address. .Dr. Fisher stated that he was urg- ing men all over tho country to buy up tho old swimming holes to hold them in perpetuity. "that we may not lose in future boyhood. contact with nature and tho out of doors." Luxury For Everybody. Wis continued: “It is an increasing- ly luxurious world. Relatively the poor boy spends as much money as the rich boy. It is a made-up world for them. not one in the making."_ Here the speaker caused laughter by his ironic remarks concerning the very excellent English used by Ann erlcan youths today. mentioning sev- eral expressions and words. including “fur lined bathtubs" and “dumbells.” "It is an increasingly impersonal world. Everything must be done in a crowd. We have mass education. mass production and mass play. The world in which the boy lives today gives him more time than ever before to use as he pleases. These leisure periods are the crisis hours 9! youth. We must thrust into these leisure hours. character. romance and adventure. The youths are constantly looking to others for amusement. We must bring up the youth to find beau- ty and adventure in the great out doors whore nature furnishes amuse. meat." Incidentally Mr. Fisher added that he disagreed with those persons who say that crime is on the increase among the American youth. Investi- gations. made recently in New York City by the Kiwanis ‘organisation. have proven that it is only a certain kindmtrorime that, adenoéiold stage coach type," that. is on the in- crease. Youth finds adventure in such crime. "We must be strategic. " he said. We must find a moral sub- 'wvu, I" . stituta for crime." ~ At Yesterday’s Luncheon. Slain Jurist The shotgun murder of Judge Lamar ..O Smith at Wetumpks. Als., was spired by Alabama authorities when they arrested Clyde! Reese Bachelor, the wealthy. inrist's son- in-lsw, and a negro farm hand, Hayes Leonard. The negro said Bachelor agreed to pay him .400 for the killing. Bachelor admitted his part in the crime. "There are an increasing number of governmental disloyalties. There is cheap talk about the democracy. It takes practical methods to teach the youth of today citizenship. The Gettysburg address. excellent as it is. Declarations and Fourth of July ad- dresses. are excelled by practical training' 'he said. He and Mr. Fisher told of many instances in which Boy Scouts are learning citizenship though perform- ance of tasks that will help the gov- ernment. specificly mentioning re- forestation work in the West. in which Boy Scouts are the prime workers. . Restless World Concluding he said: "The world in which the youth lives is a. restless. pulsating world. The youth needs a large conception of God. lite. country and duty. 1: it would be possible to get the best men in America. the best leaders. and placethem among the youths. then the problem would be solved." Mr.‘Flsher urged the Kiwanians to cooperate with those interested in the Boy Scout movement in this ,, . . . There were 82 members present at the luncheon yesterday noon. Judge Joh -.

Sept. 9..—That the New Haven Road is planning to build additional railway shops here on the waterfront for the construc- tion of railway cars and the repair of old ones and to do more general repair work than has been done in the local shops, were assurances given out last night by 'Edwin P. Lyon. of 10 ‘Pnrk street, special rop- resentstive of the road. For the increased volume df Work the additional buildings are needed and will be under construction with- in a few months. said Mr. Lyon. He was unable to say. definitely wheth- er or not a‘ site for those new build- ings had been selected although ex- plaining that they would be on the waterfront where the New Haven road owns much land and where several of its shops are at present. None of the heavier work on loco- motives will be undertaken. he said. nor will locomotives be constructed hero in his opinion. Although the local work involves the building of new cars and the re- pair of old ones. besides general work in connection with the upkeep of the road's property. Mr. Lyon believed that none of the new shops would take over the work of the Iteadville. Mesa, shops where the road maintains a large plant for the construction of locomothes and for general repairs. For years the New Haven Road has maintained shops here in when work of varying nature has been done although the road has not un- dertsken the building of railway can: but has conilnod itself to the repair and maintenance of its equip- meni. The new work to bo.done here. it Is thought. will involve the transference of expert workmen at the Readvllle plant to the local shops. Nothing definite concerning the rumor that the road was con- templating tho abandonment of its Readrillc plant and the shifting of the men hero, and the purchase of land near the Seamless Rubber com- pany. in llallock avenue. for the new buildings. could be ascertained last night.
