STOCK QUOTATIONS

Noon Quotations from J. r. Williston
& Co. to Bennington Security Co.
The following noon quotations were
received today by the Bennington Sc
curity company from R. Williston &
company Of New York by special
wire:
New-York tribune., 1909-06-20

then the subject has been dropped until this
snring. when Lord Curzon renewed IT.
II the chancellor urges the granting OF de-
grees to women very gently and cautiously, and
after many other plans for the university. he
nevertheless does urge it, and his prestige is
sure to count great deal on the women's side
even If they do not win the bartle at once. The
reasons Lord Curzon puts forth to persuade the
governing bodies TO grant degrees TO women are,
first that IT would give to the university
valuable power of control over movement that
might otherwise deyelop LAX or inexpedi-
ent' lines; second, that women teachers who re-
ceive their education at Oxford suffer in com
petition with the women who have degrees
say, from London University-because schools
prefer those who have degrees; and, third, the
university itself would profit. As long as women
are allowed to live in Oxford for study's sake
and to share the teaching and examinations Of
men, it is desirable that the best of women stu
dents should be encouraged to come. instead of
being driven elsewhere.
New-York tribune., 1909-06-20
REASON FOR OPPOSITION.

This is certainly Just and wise. when one
considers that there would be no apparent
change in the present situation to which nobody
seems to object. Since the women live in their
very well disciplined halls take high rank in the
a tactful quiet and dgnifed manner. there
seems to be little to prevent the mere formaIity
of giving sheepskns to the women as well to
the men on cOmmemOration day. Co-education
exists roughly speaking. but degrees for
women Why should the university in Lord
Curzons words yield the reality while with
holding the name?
The greatest reason probably lies In the pc
culiar way in which oxford is governed by it's
graduates. oxford is ruled in the last resort
hv wide and scattered democracy composed CO
all the masters of arts and doctors of the uni
yersity. and any graduate. few years after he
has left college, may become master of arts
by the payment Of fee So II amounts TO this:
that the university in any great matter is di-
rected by the votes of the alumni. IT. therefore
women were granted degrees they would log
ically have a much greater voice in the policy OF
the university than they have in American col
leges. where it is we'll known the alumni do not
a small body of trustees; in some cases men
Iege
This singularly democratic constitution Of Ok
ford is. then. one of the greatest stumbling
blocks in the way of the granting of degrees to
women 1t would not be easy-to persuade Har-
ward graduates to allow the alumne OF Rad
cline voice IN the policy of Harvard An

makes the subtle explanation that "tn some or

1t remains to be seen whether the women win

II may be asked whether Lord Curzon has
