CURRICULUM REPORT
AMENDED BY MEETING
~ Day Proceeds to Go. to
Students’ Building and
Music Fund
MAY DAY ASSESSMENT VOTED
2
May
Proceeds from May Day will go to the
‘Students’ Building and to the Music De-
partment, according to the vote of the
Graduate and Undergraduate Mass Meet-
ing itt Taylor last Wednesday, which also
voted a May Day assessment of $2. The
Undergraduate Association meeting, which
followed, © discussed recommendations in
“last year’s Curriculum Report, _ voting sev-
eral changés.
The reasons tit ged for dividing the May
Day proceeds were that this combination
would haye a wider appeal than either the
Students’ Building or the Music Depart-
ment alone, and that if an auditorium for
the latter could be begun this ‘summer a
great need would be met.
The Undergraduate Association voted
to amend Proposition IV-of the Curricu-
lum Report, which asks that one language
be required for gratluation, to read_ that
two languages be required, provided that
sufficient. time be allowed in the regular
school or college course for acquiring a
knowledge of the second language. This
is intended to do away with extra-curricu-
lar courses.. A motion that ‘the two lan-
guages be French’ and German was de-
feated, 69-45, as was also a motion that
German and any Romance*language be re-
_ quired, and the motion was passed that the
choice of languages be left to the indi-
vidual, The adherents of German said
that it is better training than another ro-
mance language, and is necessary in any
kind of advanced work. On the other hand
it was claimed that German is not useful to
everyone, and therefore a choice shotld be
allowed.
The “Newest New” type of examination
for these languages was approved by,a large
vote, contrary to the reading of Proposi-
tions be of the former.type. It was felt
that this kind of examination really*tests
one’s knowledge of a language, and. that
‘ having only two examinations makes less
work for the same end. It was voted 49-46
that these examinations be given in the
‘spring of the Junior year, the minority pre-
ferring the fall of the Junior year.
The amendment of Proposition B3 which
asks that Minor History be required in
preference to the present required five-|
hour Latin course, to read that the pro-
posed course in Classical Literature be
substituted for the required Latin course
was moved by V. Lomas, ’25, and passed,
92-7. She said that the Curriculum Com-
mittee felt that since seventy-five per cent.
of’ the college elected Minor History if
would be inadvisable to put the stigma of
a requirement upon it, and that while _his-
torical material is touched upon in other
subjects, Classical Literature is a subject

NO FREEDOM OF SPEECH IN
AMERICA, SAYS SPEAKER
Director of Civil. Liberties Union
Tells Liberal Club of His Work
That the agitation against radicals in the,
United States is “stirred up chiefly by pro-
fessiotial propagandists and detectives who
make money out of it,’ was charged by
Roger N. Baldwin, director of the er-
ica’ Civil Liberties Union of New York,
who spoke Thursday on the “Reds 4nd \the
Government” under the auspices of
Liberal Club in Denbigh. :
Recounting the stories of the ‘‘red scares”
immediately after the armistice in relation
to the coal,
he charged that agitation, against. radicals
was directed primarily “against militant
trade unionists in order to check the power
of organized labor.” He cited. the connec-
tion between the Federal Secret Service
under William J. Burns and the private
detective agencies, “whose interest lies in
making money: from employing corpora-
tions by their anti-labor and anti-radical
activities.”
Mr. Baldwin said in part:
“The red scares tirected by the Federal
Secret Service and professional anti-radi-
cal organizations are based. upon popular
fear of disturbance through the infection
of revolutionary ideas from Europe, par-
ticularly from Russia. When we consider
that the entire radical movement in the
United States reflecting from such con-

ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION
ADOPTS NEW CONSTITUTION
Sports Managers to Be Elected From
College; President Not to Be One
‘A new constitution, embodying impor-
tant changes in the duties of the President
and the selection of Sports Managers, was
adopted at a meeting of the Athletic Asso-
ciation in Taylor, last Wednésday. It was
also voted to give the extra water polo
cup to the person who wins first place in
dives in the- Swimming Meet, and> that a
B. M. shall also be awarded to her.
' According to the new constitution, the
officers of the Association will be a Presi-
dent, Vice-President, with the duties of
Treasurer, and Secretary, elected in the
spring from the Junior, Sophomore and
Freshman classes respectively and an As-
sistant Secretary elected from the Fresh-
after Thanksgiving. These
officers nominate managers for each sport,
who are elected by the whole Association.
Persons not nominated by the officers may
be added to the list by petition. The
Sports Managers and the officers shall con-
stitute the Executive Board.
The President will not be eligible for
the position of* Sports Manager, but her
main duties will be to be responsible for
the Athletic fields and grounds and to ex-
ercise. an advisory supervision over the
Sports Managers. Each Sport Manager
will supervise rulings dealing with her
sport only, arrange all game schedules, ‘etc.,
and keep a record of rulings and expenses.
There will be one manager for each sport
and the ‘same person may not be manager
for more,than one sport, with the excep-
tipn of, Water Polo or Track.
Freshmen will not be able to vote until
after the meeting in the fall when the
rules are read. This Constitution will take
effect immediately, with the exception of
the changes regarding officers and _elec-
tions, which will go into effect “at the time
of spring elections.

EXHIBITION AT ACADEMY
American Artists Are Years Behind
in Conception of Art
- Miss Georgiana Goddard King, Profes-
sor of History of Art, spoke in Chapel
last Wednesday and Friday mornings on
this year’s Exhibition at the Academy of
Fine Arts in Philadelphia.
In er first talk Miss King considered the
regfettable features of the Exhibition, while
n the second she discusseds the enjoyable
The greatest
disappoigffmht, said Miss King, was in the’
monotony and insignificance of the. work;
the artist seemed to have nothing to say.
The disposition of prizes..meant: nothing,
for the most unprejudiced of awards does
not indicate genius, but merely points out
excellence, while in this case—the prizes
were so hedged in,and limited as to their
disposal, that their value was completely
lost.’
Frequently, where the artist perceived
in himself a lack of style or insignificance,
he. borrowed from and imitated earlier
fashions. Thus Glackens imitated Renoir
in a prize-winning picture, and Miss Oak-
ley followed the style of Vedder. In Phila-
delphia, painters. seem to be about fifty}
years behind the times. Where they can-
not successfully imitate their predecessors
they do so to their contemporaries. “Gar-
ber, Hawthorne and others- apparently Have

CHAPEL SPEAKER EMPHASIZES
LOYALTY AS KEY TO RELIGION
We Should Feel Our Place in the
World, Says Mr. Erdman Harris
eee 4
Mr. Erdman Harris, assistant to Dr.
Henry Coffin, in Chapel last Sunday eve-
ning, said that reward should be incidental
to loyalty to ideals and not the cause of it.
Various philosophies have been developed
to account for human existence. The
Eastern mystics deny personal: existence
and insist that happiness comes from en-
tire absorption im the universe. Mark
Twain is fatalistic and sees no justification
at all for mart’s life. H. L. Mencken con-
ceives the universe as a gigantic fly-wheel,
man a sick fly taking a ride, and religion
as having designed the wheel to give him
a ride.. The whole New Testament, in its
“seek and you shall find,” understands an
active participation in religion or, accord-
ing to Mr. Harris, “The man will find
God who is willing to do what God would
want him to do, if there were a God.”
Character, influence, happiness’ and a
real. assurance that this is a spiritual and
motivated universe are the most desirable
out to gain them we come to grief. The,
result of purposeful character-building is A
Puritan ‘and a prig; character-4s “really a
by-product of doing the right thing. Sim-
ilarly, when attempting to secure influence
directly, one becomes a politician. Cer-
tainly gnly the people who do the kind and
unselfish thing can ever attain happiness,
and then it is’ not as the result of strain-
ing after it, It is a wholesome thing that
in thinking about God at all one is led to
believe in a presence outside, working in
and through one that must be divine. Nor-
ris Russell says that “a Being so intensely
felt, must be.” Atheists have been led to
a realization of God simply by having an
open mind and doing what they considered
right. The key-word of religion is not
necessarily love w is an uncertain emo-
tion that has long’ unproductive periads,
PRINCE CAETANI SPEAKS ~
: ¥
ON FASCISTI MOVEMENT
Entire Coilege Enjoys Music and
Talk of. Italian Ambassador at
Meeting of Italian Club ~~
NATIONALISM HOPE OF ITALY
“With~His~Excellency” Prince” Caétani,
Italian ‘Ambassador to the United States,
as a guest and speaker, the Italian. Club
held its first meeting in Taylor Hall on
Friday evening. a ,
Beneath “two resplendant Italian. ‘and
American: flags hung over the platform
from the balcony,. Dr: Maria Castellani, in-
produced by Mariquita Villard, Chairman
of the Club, first read*telegrams of good
wishes from the Magnificio Rettore of the
University of Rome, and from the Italy-
America Society.
After an introduction by President Park,
in which she stressed the particular debt
of the College to Italy for.its contributions
of training in the present as well as the
past, Prince Caetani spoke on the Fascisti
Movement.
The soul and. ideal of ndibuiii Italy, he
explained, are very different from what
people in this country think them to be. ‘In
their eyes Italy seems afflicted with a glorie
ous past. But the Italians of today are
Italian Renaissance and are the children
of a nation that, following historical tra-
ditions, has completed a cycle and is now
about to take up again an active part in
the affairs of the world. The Fascismo
has created the last chapter of the making
of Italy, which began with the leadership
of Mazzini.
Here Prince Caetani outlined the events
of the Risorgimento which led up to a
under the shock of. the World War. But,
he continued, the full result was not yet
possible, for the inevitable consequence of
"a war, moral feverishness, allowed Bolshe-
vism and Socialism to hold sway until the
young men of: the country took matters
into their own hands, uniting under the
name of Fascisti. ;
The Fascismo has become a spiritual
movement with the doctrine of National-
ism.. Under it care for public welfare is
all-important, the individual is to sacrifice
himself to the good of the community, dnd
‘discipline is the first ddty of the man who
fights for his ideal.
After the lecture Italian artists from
Philadelphia, including Mr. Scarduzzi and
Mr. Liuzzi, the violoncellist, played and
sang selections of Italian music.
A reception in honor of Prince Caetani
was then held in Rockefeller Hall.
The Poster Committee requests thit @

QUALITY FROM QUANTITY?
That.
large, and that the education sought from
them is too ‘much influenced by public
opinion ‘is the criticism of Dr. Bell, Presi-
dent of St. Stephen’s College on the Hud-
son, in the New York Herald.
To Dr. Bell these institutions are like
great mills, pouring out men and women
dazed from being. rushed through class
American Universities are too
rooms in the mass and unprepared to cope |
with life on its own terms. They urge
specialization on the student indiscrimi-.
nately, and discourage him from thinking
on the philosophical purpose of the world
and: of himself. They graduate ‘a group
of individuals lowered or raised to an
average of mediocrity.
Two remedies are suggested ; that’ out
of, for instance, a thousand entering stu-
dents nine hundred should be eliminated
before graduation; and that between every
‘ student and teacher intimate and intellec-
tually constructive relations should exist.
But this, shall we say, sweetening of
college life, advocated by D ell to the
advantage of a select few, would, it seems
to us, deprive the undergraduate of his
* most effectual preparation for life; an
obligation to stand on his own feet, meas-
uring his fellow students against “them-
selves and, himself against them, according
to standards that only trial will teach him
to adjust. Under the present conditions
his philosophical conclusions, though only
half-formed
promise a stronger basis to final convic-
tions, when corrected and fitted together
by the light-of later experience, than be-
liefs nursed into existence by favorable
surroundings and ready to melt at the first
contact of’ a world made of people bad,
and mediocre, as well as exceptional.

"Nine Ways to Kil] the Organization
1. Don’t go to the meetings.
2. If you do, go late.
3. If the weather doesn’t suit you, don’t
think of going.
4. If you do attend a meeting: find fault
with the work of the officers and members.
5. Never accept office, as it is easier to
criticize than to do things.
6. Get sore if you are not appointed on
a- committee, but if you are, do not attend
committee meetings, ;
7. If asked by the chairman to give your
opinion on some matter, tell him that you
have nothing to say. After the meeting
tell everyone how ony should have been
done.
8. Do nothing more than absolutely
necessary, but when members use their abil-
ity to help matters along, howl that the
organization is run by a clique.
9. Hold back your dues or do not pay
at all. Dione

NEWS FROM OTHER COLLEGES
At the last Student Council meeting it
was decided to have Barnard represented
by the Undergraduate: President. at a small
Student Government conference. of. about
six eastern colleges at Bryn Mawr.
At Hood College, for the purpose of
stimulating creative efforts toward goud
Hood songs, the“faculty offers annually, at
Campus Day, two prizes, one for words,\
one for music for an original college song!
Both prizes are given to one song—which
may be the work of one or. two -gtudenty.
While not class songs, the songs entered
are to come from the classes rather than
from individuals, the winning’ one count-
ing points for the class from which it

A course in love and marriage, one of
the most popular in the curriculum of Pine
Martor, according to-a recent copy of the
New York Tribune, is being given by Mrs.
Richard C, Cabot, wife of Boston’s famous
diagnostician and author. It is called a
course in “human relations.”
A survey of the Freshman class con-
ducted recently at Mount Holyoke, shows
that 15.2 per.cent. of the’ class have ‘rela-
tives who graduated from Mount Holyoke.
Further inquiries as to the preferences of
the members of the Freshman class brought
to light the fact that of the 315 Freshmen,
135 have already discovered a favorite. sub-
ject among the somewhat limited number
of courses open to Freshmen. Among the
most popular subjects dre: English, which
leads the list with 39 adherents; Mathe-
matics, with 18; the sciences, with 24; and
Languages, with 22. Athletics is most pop-
ular with Freshmen, and far more prefer
basketball and hockey than vote for tennis,

Some change will probably be made in
the seadicshay te the 1924 Honor Roll
at Baylor, College. It has been suggested
that the 1923 system be re-adopted. This
system fequires that everyone on_ the
Honor Roll be in good standing with the
student government, that she make at least
twenty-four literary points and that she
offer five student activity points.
Under the system now in force the girl
must be in good standing with student
government, make at least “C” on each
course, offer ten student activity points,
have no unexcused: absences from classes,
chapel, Sunday school or church, and not
more than six excused absences from:
classes or chapel and three excused ab-
sences from Sunday school and church.
As the result of a ballot, Wellesley Col-
lege has proclaimed itself overwhelmingly
in favor of intercollegiate athletics. It
is hoped that in the present plan the ob-
jectionable features of intercollegiate
competition will be done away with. The]
many will have the opportunity to~ play
and-there will be no “star” ‘system. By
keeping out the element. of rivalry between
the colleges as units, it is hoped that a
spirit of friendship. will grow up, and the
system will be the means to freer com-
munication. :
IN THE NEW BOOK. ROOM
Liluli; Romain Rolland. ; :
With this satire, published here four
years ‘ago as a translation, Mr. Rolland
tears away the veil that hides mankind
and its motives from the individual. He
finds his instances of men and motives in
the war between the easily-recogfiized races
of Gallipoulets and Hurluberloches.. These
people desiring Only to live and let live
in harmony, with the purpase of mutually
satisfying their appetites, are compelled by
forces. of their own creation, to under-
take against each other a war of. annihila-
tion.
Before. the eyes of Polichinello, the
aloof sceptic and scoffer, Liluli or Illusion,
leading lady of the drama, and the Master-
God, whose appearance changes to suit the
néed of any man, with Truth his captive -
servant, Llop’th or Opinion of thé Clamor-
ous escort, aided by their slaves, the Intel-
lectuals, the Fettered Brains the Diplomats,
drive both people, typified as groups or
individuals, to inter-destruction. They ~
fight unwillingly at. first, then ‘with blind
enthusiasm until only ruins and death re-
main. At the end, as.an ominous warning,
the ruins,. topped by Illusion triumphant,
crash down on Polichinello himself, de-
prived of his talismanic latigh in the hour
of need because he preferred his safety
to defense of Truth, when she had called
on him.
In the midst of his beseainhaaubibins 4 the
author suggests one remedy: Let the man
with the open eyes, the sceptic as seen by
the world, sacrifice his safety and tran-
quillity to the championing of Truth; he—
may survive the general destruction. He
may even prevent it, we are led to sup-~
pose, if, he gathers to his cause groups of
similar men sufficient i in determinatior and
force.
Before the play, as a key to his satire,
°
‘Mr. Rolland places this quotation from his
own Colas Breugnon:
“Breugnon, you rascal, you’re“laughing !
Aren’t you ashamed?—What’d you have,
my friend, I am what I am. , Laughter
does not prevent me from suffering; but
to_suffer will never prevent a real French--~
man from laughing and whether he laugh
or shed tears—first of all he’s got to see!
Long life to Janus Two-face with his
ever open eyes! .. .”

UNDERGRADUATE CONFERENCE TO
BE HELD HERE THIS WEEK-END
Curriculum Self-Government Rules and
_@ Point Systems to be Discussed
The Self-Government and Undergraduate
Association conferences will be held here
from Friday to Sunday evening of this
* week ‘with representatives from five East-
ern colleges.
This informal method of discussing prob-
® lems especially affecting these Eastern col-
leges grew out of the Intercollegiate Con-
ference, held at Oberlin this winter, to
which Bryn Mawr sent P. Coyne, ’24, and
E. ReQua, ’24. The conference aims to
recommend some questions to be-discussed
at the large conference to be held next
year at Vassar.
The Self-Government questions to be dis-
cussed include smoking, reporting on other
people, methods of explaining Self-Govern-
ment to Freshmen, and motoring rules.
The Curriculum Committee will meet the
delegates to discuss the following ques-
tions: the hours; type, and choice of major,
‘required, and elective work, general survey-
courses; the number and type of examina-
tions, either compreherisives, semester ex-
aminations, or reports; entrance require-
ments, and the application of college meth-
ods to school’ work; and the development
of one central idea throughout the indi-
vidual’s college course.
Point systems and budgets will also be
discussed, The delegates are Anne Halli-
day, Vassar; Annie Allen, Radcliffe ; Edna
Trull, Barnard; Gertrude Mensel, Smith,
and Carroll McCarty, Wellesley.

Another unpleasantly evident quality was
brutality, which ranged from refined vul-
garity to coarseness. Especially.to be con-
demned were the portraits of Mr. and Mrs.
Benjamin Rush, who felt obliged_to have
two different and famous artists to paint] —
them, Leopold Seyffert-and Wm. Paxton.
Even Lazar Raditz sometimes falls to a
low level of unreality in his portraits.
Fleshly carnaljty is noticeable in such as
Dewitt Lockman’s Silver Dress or in Pax-
ton’s Wife. At times. the artist becomes
purely and simply vulgar as in the por-
‘trait of Col. John R, M. Taylor, by ,Rich-
‘ard Meryman. Ps
Many men of justly good repute have
in this year’s Exhibition pulled down their
standards. Victor Higgin in The Widower,
and Hawthorne in Adoration of Mother
had too little to say. for the size of their
canvases. Becoming. superficial, some
painters lost the fire altogether; others
lost their effectiveness through lack of
careful technique. .

traits in feeling if not in name. Still’ life

AT BENEFIT FOR TSUDA SCHOOL
Contributions Are Necessary to Rebuild
Destroyed School
ca
Tamaki Mura, Japanese Soprano, spoken
of as the “incomparable Mme. Butterfly,”
will sing for the benefit of Miss Tsuda’s
School, Tokyo, on Friday evening, March
14; at the Academy of Music. Tickets are
on sale at the Alumnae Office in Taylor. ~
Miss Tsuda’s School*was destroyed by
the earthquake and is to be rebuilt as soon
as enough money has been raised. It has
never been self-supporting, but has been

and by a grant from the Japanese govern-
ment. It fas a place on the budget of the
Christian Association. The school was
founded in 1900 by Miss Tsuda, a graduate
of Bryn Mawr. It aims “to give Japanese
women higher education under the influ-
ence of a Christian home,” and it is the
only “international and interdenominational
educational institution in Japan, ,

Second Victory Over Sophomores
8 - 0 Wins Championship
Defeating the Sophomores 8-0: in the
final water-polo game last Tuesday, 1924's
first team won the water-polo champion-
ship, held last year by 1923, and hung their
banner on the gymnasium,
The Seniors played a more aggressive
game throughout, Reaching thé ball first
every time, they immediately carried it
down the. pool, skilfully avoiding the some-
what desultory attacks of the Sophomores,
only to lose a score through poor aim.
Frequently when they attempted goals from
the middle of the pool the ball -fell ,just
short of the Sophomore goal.
Deplorable fumbling and lack of alert-
ness characterized 1926’s playing. They
practically gave the ball to the Seniors,
even on free shots, especially in the second
half. Toward the end both teams’ play
grew completely wild and scrambling. R.
Fitzgerald, the Sophomore goal, however,
kept her head, and put up a good, if soli-
tary, defense.

SECOND TEAM
1925 vs. 1926
In the third game of the finals last Mon-
day night, the Sophomores went downto
defeat at the hands of 1925, by a score of
4-3,
Dark Blue having won the first game,
and the second being a_tie, the game was
hard fought and closel
way through. 1926 opened it by a goal at
the very start, followed by wild and pur-
poseless playing. 1925 got the ball at the
toss-up, but did not take advantage of its
. opportunities. After wild splashing and
ineffectual pushing of the ball by every-
one in the first half, the Juniors settled
down to organized team“pfay.. A long
throw for the goal by C. Cummings, ’25, i"
was successful, and 1925 \assumed the
offensive. Quick and accurate scoring by
G. Thomas, ’26, and good goal: defense by
M, M. Dunn, ’25, were the high points of
the game,

SECOND TEAM
1925 vs. 1926
The second game of the finals between
1925 and 1926 resulted in a tie, 1-1. The
first game was won by 1926.
Both teams played hard, but rather in-
effectually, and the shooting of the for-
wards was ‘very.-often wild, the passing,
too, especially that of the Juniors, seem-
ing uncertain and ill-considered; The at-
titude of both 1925 and 1926 tended.
towards..a._defensive.and not-_offensive
game. Alternately the teams struggled
desperately to keep the ball from _ their
goal, but once having done so, they failed
to follow up in an aggressive attack. For-'
wards. fumbled frequently; in fact the
most consistently good players were the
goals, who put up an excellent defense.

IN AMERICA, SAYS SPEAKER
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
ceptions, numbers well inside of 50,000,
these red scares are clearly absurd. Wil-
liam J. Burns, of the secret service, under-
stands this and therefore magnifies the
figures, claiming that there are 600,000/a
“reds” in the Unfted States committed to
an overthrow of the government by force
and violence. This is plain bunk, and Mr.
‘Burns knows it just as does» any person
informed about the radical movement. It
is an attempt to justify the propagandist
activities of the federal goverment, the
‘deportation of alien radicals, the incitement
to state prosecution of native-born radicals
and the appropriation of a huge sum by.
Congress for that purpose. Mr. Burns ap-
‘peared before a committee of Congress a
year ago for an increase in his appropria-
tion from two and one-quarter millions to
twosand one-half, basing it solely on the
need of combatting ‘Reds.’
“The United States government is in no
danger of being-overthrown by radicals.
It is, however, in danger of being under-
‘mined. by self-appointed saviors of the
country, whose lawlessness has become no-
torious among well-informed people in the
last few years. All the old guarantees of
civil liberty have broken, down before
them. Police, detectives and the K. K. K.
are no respectors of civil rights. Once
you admit the proposition that opinions in
themselves are ._proper cause for prosecu-
tion, you open the doors wide to profes-
sional persecutors who will construe any
militant language into violations of crimi-
nal syndicalism and sedition and anti-an-
archy laws.
“Even the courts themselves, together
with the legislatures, have responded to
the hysteria against radicals since the war.
Today there is more machinery for putting
men in jail for, their views than ever be-
fore in the history of the country. Every
decision of the United States Supreme
“*~Court in connection with civil liberty since
the war has been adverse} and the state
courts have followed’ suit with few ex-
ceptions, We can attain a condition of
freedom of opinion such as _ obtained
through a hundred years of our history
and such as obtains, for instance, in Eng-
land today, only’by a vigorous agitation
on the part of the advocates of free speech.
ne R .
Repressive laws will be a dead letter if
public opinion makes their enforcement
unpopular. Continued repression inevita-
bly brings violence and ultimately, where
great forces are in conflict, revolution, We
are out for orderly and peaceful progress.
We are therefore battling for the right of
every ‘red’ in the country to speak his
mind without restraint, feeling certain that
this is the only way to avoid the ultimate
overthrow of the government by force
and_ violence.”

AND SECOND TEAMS ON FRIDAY

The Senior third ‘team won the final

playing.
The Seniors’ strong poittt lay in their
forward line, rather than in their defense,
and they were able to keep the play al-
most entirely near the Sophomore’s goal, as
they outswam their opponents- both ‘in first

Dr. Fearn visited America in the fall, and
spoke, among other places, at Wellesley,
where he was considered so good that he
was asked to lead their “Weelé of Prayer”
this spring. Dr. Fearn believes that Chris-
tianity must be freed from the dust of
J orthodoxy, accepted tradition and custom
ms,
in order that its true value as a force ak
veying impetus ‘and power to life may be
realized. He is chiefly desirous that in-
dividuals should -be consistent, whole-
hearted Christians, and should not merely
assent to sentimental religious formulas
which have come down through the ages.

IN AMERICA, SAYS SPEAKER
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
ceptions, numbers well inside of 50,000,
these red scares are clearly absurd. Wil-
liam J. Burns, of the secret service, under-
stands this and therefore magnifies the
figures, claiming that there are 600,000/a
“reds” in the Unfted States committed to
an overthrow of the government by force
and violence. This is plain bunk, and Mr.
‘Burns knows it just as does» any person
informed about the radical movement. It
is an attempt to justify the propagandist
activities of the federal goverment, the
‘deportation of alien radicals, the incitement
to state prosecution of native-born radicals
and the appropriation of a huge sum by.
Congress for that purpose. Mr. Burns ap-
‘peared before a committee of Congress a
year ago for an increase in his appropria-
tion from two and one-quarter millions to
twosand one-half, basing it solely on the
need of combatting ‘Reds.’
“The United States government is in no
danger of being-overthrown by radicals.
It is, however, in danger of being under-
‘mined. by self-appointed saviors of the
country, whose lawlessness has become no-
torious among well-informed people in the
last few years. All the old guarantees of
civil liberty have broken, down before
them. Police, detectives and the K. K. K.
are no respectors of civil rights. Once
you admit the proposition that opinions in
themselves are ._proper cause for prosecu-
tion, you open the doors wide to profes-
sional persecutors who will construe any
militant language into violations of crimi-
nal syndicalism and sedition and anti-an-
archy laws.
“Even the courts themselves, together
with the legislatures, have responded to
the hysteria against radicals since the war.
Today there is more machinery for putting
men in jail for, their views than ever be-
fore in the history of the country. Every
decision of the United States Supreme
“*~Court in connection with civil liberty since
the war has been adverse} and the state
courts have followed’ suit with few ex-
ceptions, We can attain a condition of
freedom of opinion such as _ obtained
through a hundred years of our history
and such as obtains, for instance, in Eng-
land today, only’by a vigorous agitation
on the part of the advocates of free speech.
ne R .
Repressive laws will be a dead letter if
public opinion makes their enforcement
unpopular. Continued repression inevita-
bly brings violence and ultimately, where
great forces are in conflict, revolution, We
are out for orderly and peaceful progress.
We are therefore battling for the right of
every ‘red’ in the country to speak his
mind without restraint, feeling certain that
this is the only way to avoid the ultimate
overthrow of the government by force
and_ violence.”
APPARATUS MEET FOR FIRST
AND SECOND TEAMS ON FRIDAY

The Senior third ‘team won the final
game, 4-1, from the Sophomores last Tues-
day, through superior speed and offensive
playing.
The Seniors’ strong poittt lay in their
forward line, rather than in their defense,
and they were able to keep the play al-
most entirely near the Sophomore’s goal, as
they outswam their opponents- both ‘in first
reaching the ball and in play. O. Fountain,

OPPONENT OF ORTHODOXY TO

The Rev. L. W. Fearn, of St. Peter’s
Church, London, will speak under the aus-
pices of the Christian Association.in Room
F, Taylor Hall, at 7.30 o’clock Saturday,
March 8, and will lead the vesper service
Jin the chapel at half past five on Sunday,
March 9. me
Dr. Fearn visited America in the fall, and
spoke, among other places, at Wellesley,
where he was considered so good that he
was asked to lead their “Weelé of Prayer”
this spring. Dr. Fearn believes that Chris-
tianity must be freed from the dust of
J orthodoxy, accepted tradition and custom
ms,
in order that its true value as a force ak
veying impetus ‘and power to life may be
realized. He is chiefly desirous that in-
dividuals should -be consistent, whole-
hearted Christians, and should not merely
assent to sentimental religious formulas
which have come down through the ages.
