Of New Yorkers to Committee.
Says Exceptions Were Taken 20
Some Things, but No Unjust
Criticisms Were Made.

Representative Charles F. Scott. chair

tlemen great injustice.

DR.. JordOn. with MS colleagues. consti-
tuting the executive committee OF the
National Agricultural Colleges. came be
fore the committee for the purpose Of ad-
vOcating larger appropriation for some
Of the bureaus Of the department. After
having discussed this matter, they were
about TO retire. when several members OF
the committee began asking them aues-
tons about the work OF certain other bu-
reaus Of the department, especially the
bureau OF soils. as they had seen II In
their respective States.
The answers 10 these questions were
given reluctantly. evidently only because
the committee insisted upon il. and while
dissent was expressed from the views en-
tertHned by certain scientists connected
with the department, this dissent was &C
companied By every polite qualification
that could be used consistent with ar
honest expression OF an adverse opinion.
1t was entirely clear 20 the COMMITTEES
that Dr. Jordon and the gentlemen who
accompanied him came with no intent OF
expectation OF saving q single word de.
