C9LLECE OFFICES OF
 BAY STATE ALARMED
BILL INTRODUCED FOR THE TAXATION OF THEIR
 RESIDENCES.

Conference Hurriedly Called by Presi-
 dent Eliot of Harvard-Cancels En-
 gagement to Give One of tile Princi-
 pal Addresses at the Peace Congress
 10 Make Necessary Arrangements--
 Fundamental Question at Stake
 Whether State VIII Abandon Its Ira
 ditional Policy in Support of Higher
 Education.
 Boston, April 16.-Alarmed by bill introduced in the legislature for the taxation of the residence of college of ficers, the presidents and other repre- sentatives of all the high educational institutions of the state are hastening to a conference hurriedly called by President Charles w. Eliot, of Har- yard, to be held in Boston tomorrow. President Eliot cancelled an engage ment to give one of the principal ad- addresses at the peace congress in New York to-day in order to make the nec- essary preparations for the conference. In a statement issued tonight Presi- dent Eliot said:
 "rhe fact that Harvard university may have less to lose from the imme- diate effects of the present bill than Boston college or Wellesley college is not relevant. The interest of Harvard university is inseparable from that of all other colleges and universities in Massachusetts on the fundamental question whether the commonwealth snail abandon it's traditional policy in support of higher education.
 "The general fact that every town or city that harbors a college receives a material compensation for the exemp- tion of the college taxation in the form of higher neighborlng valuations, hard ly needs further argument. It was proved beyond the shadow of doubt by mittee on taxation and to the commit- tee of the present legislature. If there was any evidence that college owned houses used as residences for professors menaced the operation of this rule of compensation, there might be some jus tification for the present bill. Tn the absence of such evidence, the bill can be regarded only in one light, namely, as an attempt to weaken the founda- tions of the exemption policy. The fact that the bill works but slight harm to certain institutions is no argument in it's favor. It attacks the vitals of other institutions and as an entering wedge it threatens the serviceableness of every endowed college, university and scien- tiflc institution in th state"
