THE HOWARD UNIVERSITY CoNTROvER-
SYM. Fred. Douglass has written letter
10 the New York Post in reply to an inquiry
rs 10 whether Howard University is To be
conducted ON the same basis in the future "a
II the past, or whether il has passed under
The control OF the American Missionary As.
Soeiation OF of the COngregatiOnaIists. Mr.,
douglass states that, as he understands il,
mo organic change has taken place in the
institution. O>teusibly. at least. il is the
same institution il ever was. There have
been no changes in the board of trustees. Its
members are the same when Gen. Howard
was The president Of the University. At the
recent meeting of the board OF trustees there
was nOdeclaratiOn OF purpose To manage the
University. neither in the interest of the
American Missionary Association. nor in
mat of tine COrgregationalIsts. There was a
purpose declared 10 cuTtail the expenses of
The Institution. and power was given TO the
executive COmmittce To bring these expenses
within the income of the institution. This
executive committee * imposed of two
white gentlemen and one cOlOred. The board
of trustees also elected the Rev. Geo. WhfD-
pie, the veteran secretary Of the American
ard University. This was done IN the face OF
The earnestly expressed desire OF the cOlOred
members Of the bOarl that the position
should be given 20 a COlored man.
