Adams Says College System is Wrong.

That there is urgent need of radical re-
form In the great universities of America
is the opinion of Charles Francis Adams.
as expressed In an address before the Phi
Beta Kappa Chapter of Columbia Uniyer.
sity at New York yesterday, This opin-
ion. he says. is based upon his ebserva-
lions during half century. since he grad
uated from Harvard. He believes that the
great colleges and universities have out
grown the methods of long ago prescribed
for their conduct. that they have become
unwieldly and that there is too little per-
sonal contact between student and In
structors In his address Mr. Adams de-
voted himself almost entirely to condi-
lions at Harvard. He contended, however,
that the same conditions prevail at nearly
all the other colleges and universities.

HELPING RAILROAD MEN
SENATOR ELKINs MAKING STIFF
FIGHT FOR EMPLOYEES.
Wants to Retain Provision In Rate Ban
For Passes For Employees
and Families.
Special Dlspat,b 10 The World.

Washington, June BIT is definitely
known that the biggest fight made i'll
the conference on the rate bill wa
shat of Senator Elkins TO prevent the
agreement on an anti-psss amendment
which would result in eliminating
railroad employees from the privilege
of being given free transportation.
The conference committee voted to
cut off all passes. Senator Elkins took
the ground that the amendment adopt
ed in the senate should be retained.
HE thinks that all the classes excepted
from the ope ration of the amendment
should be accepted. From first TO last.
he stood out for it.
Particularly did he fight for the
railroad employees. He holds that
transportation for employees and their
families is a part of their compensa
tion and that to prohibit them from
receiving it is an act of the Tankest
injustice. There are some /, 200, 900
families of railroad employees 10 the
country and all of them will be SER
iously affected by the action of the
COnferees
Senator Elkins will continue to
light against the final passage of the
amendment. He has some hope of
succeeding yet in having the agree
ment so modified as to allow railroad
men and their families free transpor-
tstion. He regards it as the greatest
piece Of injustice done to railroad
employees in the history Of congress,
