TO STOP HAzING.
Congressional Committee Makes
Its Report on West Point.

Washington. Feb. 9.-The report of the
special congressional committee which
investigated the hazing of Cadet Booz
and the general subject of hazing at
West Point today was submitted to the
house of representatives by the chair
man of the committees, Representative
Dick, together with a bill making string
ent regulations against hazing. fighting
and all brutal practices.
The report is an exhaustive review OF
the practice of hazing in all its forms
and while moderate in tone, is neverthe-
less a singing arraignment OF the many
alleged brutal practices enumerated. II
specified more than 100 distinct methods
Of annoying and haraSSing tourth-claSS
men and describes them In detail One
of he funny formations" described -
that practiced on Philip Sheridan, Jr,
who was compelled to ride q broomstick

achievement at Winchester"
The report states that a system or
fighting has grown UP which is shock
ing in its character The hgnts are De-
scribed and the committee states that
the West Point code is more vicious
than the Queensbury code.
The committee held that fighting IS
the worst form of hazing. The report
says that such fighting as that at West
Point is a felony according to the stat
utes in many Of the states and the time
has come when congress must decide
elsewhere shall continue at West Point
The committee finds that Cadets Mac
Arthur, Breth and Burton were hazed
into commissions, others were hazed I'M
til they tainted, while others were hazed
until they were sick.
The hazing Of Cadets BOOK and Breth
are deliberately treated but the commit
tee does not attribute their death direct
~ to hazing. The reports adds:
but while we cannot fix upon hazing
the responsibility for these two deaths.
possibility is that it FASTENED them and
the blot Is thrown on the otherwise fair

conflict with proper training and disci-
pline, and un6tness IN this new century,
urges the adoption of reasonable, yet we
believe effective measures for it's eradl-
cation and the promotion of discipline at
the acadany."
The bill submitted contains eleven sec

for its detection and punishment Dis

fight or a challenge, directly, or indi-
rect4y, or for any form Of annoying, har-
