The war department has taken the
right course with the insubordlnate ca
diets at West Point. Its stern decision,
by which five cadets are dismissed from
the service, was fully justified by the
needs Of the case. After the recent haZ-
ing scandals the cadets promised 20 alb
stain from the practice IN future, but
Il was soon found that they had their
own definition OF hazing. All manner
OF minor persecution OF under-class men
continued, and the upper-class men, un-
der pressure from the authorities,
finally published a description OF what
In the cadets eyes was hazing and what
was not The commandant refused
90 accept the definition as laid down
by the cadets, and his efforts to sup
press the practice led to such open in
subordinatlon as had perhaps never
been seen at West Point.
