PEOPLE ARE GROWING BETTER SAYS OFFICIAL Secretary Wilbur Sees Improvement from a Religious Standpoint, He Tells Conference Annapolis. Md., April 3.-The peoples of the world as a whole are getting better from a religious stand point, Secretary of the Navy uurtis D. Wilbur declared here tonight in an address before the laymen's asso ciation of the Baltimore annual con ference of the Methodist Episcopal church. Secretary Wilbur said the relig ious aspect could not be judged ade quately without some standard of measurement, yet, he said, tne clamor about barbarism that marked the beginning of the world, gradual ly abated as the people realized that each of the nations involved was struggling for some ideal regarded as great. . Mr. Wilbur gave it as his opinion that the people of the present gene ration do not have the reading of the Bible as in the old day3; that long prayers that made for a standard of goodness have been much shortened and home work is almost abolished. Yet, on the other hand, he said, peo ple of all countries are steadily gain ing a wider knowledge of God; that there' is something more significant in the fundamental attitude of love of God and man is showing a more loving affection for the infinite. VON HINDENBUEG DE CLINES TO MAKE EACE Berlin, April 5. General Von Hin- denburg tonight definitely declined to run for president, according to re ports received from Hanover, where the former commander-in-chief now lives in retirement. Theaged field marshal, national hero of the world war, had been ask ed to become the presidential can didate of the parties of the right, or nationalist bloc, against former Chancellor Marx, choice of the con stitutional parties. His "no" was given to a national ist committee which called on him today. Efforts to induce Von Hin- denburg to change his mind con tinued but if these fail it is believed that the right bloc will nominate jaires who led the nationalist votes in the recent election who would run with the strong endorsement of the field marshal. Miss Mary Wehrbein was a visi tor in Omaha today to spend a few hours at that city visiting with Mrs. Ida Tritsch at the St. Catherine's hospital where she is taking treat ment.
