HARVARD AL00FNESS IS
ON WANE, SAYS LOWELL
Democratic Spirit Growing Into
Actual Fact, PreSi-
dent Ayers.
DORMIT0RIES AID TREND
Committee Representative Also
Deprecates Prevalence
of Superiority
Idea.

ST. Louis. May 23.-Harvard University
is becoming more democratic, declared its
president. Professor Abbott Lawrence
Lowell, speaking this afternoon to 800
members Of the Associated Harvard Clubs
at their seventeenth annual convention.
The democratic spirit which we have
all wanted to see more prevalent at Har-
ward and the lack OF which has been a
cause Of criticism is growing into an
actual fact" Professor Lowell said.
This development has been aided by
the erection of four or five dormitories on
the campus for the special use of fresh
men. who are thus brought into closer
contact with one another, to the end that
there shall be no distinction of Norther-
ner, Southerner, Fastener or Westerner"
Professor Lowell incidentally admitted
that certain criticism of Harvard clubs
was to some extent just.
THE clubs need big, open windows in
stead Of transoms," he said. "and in
few years | believe this will be thoroughly
recognized. AT the same time, much OF
the criticism has come from those who
infer there is something wrong with the
clubs because they cannot see what Is in
side"
The presidents statement relative TO the
growing democratic spirit was in meas
ure an answer to Fl. Allen, of Cincinnati,
who in addressing the convention as the
representative OF the committee on rela-
tions, recommended that Harvard Uni
versity be popularized and that the public
impression OF its exclusiveness be counter
acted in every way possible.
In the public mind" he said, Harvard
has come to stand for exclusiveness, and
the idea seems TO prevail that Harvard
men think themselves A superior class OF
persons. The Associated Harvard Clubs
should try TO do away with this feeling
Mr. Allen suggested that the clubs in
vite Harvard men Of distinction 10 ad-
dress civic business organizations in their
cities. and that publicity be given TO the
research work OF Harvard scientific men.
Frederick Birmingham, Of Chicago. de-
clared that Western students were leaders
in Harvard in three times the proportion
Of the Eastern ones, and that one-half the
students spending more than $1,000 year
were paying their own way. The self
supporting students. he said. made their
large incomes by tutoring and by liter
airy and drafting work and in other lines
requiring special skill and ability
Plans for fifty new Harvard scholar
ships to be given by Harvard clubs were
reported by J. ID. Phillips, OF Boston, and
adopted by the associated clubs. These
scholarships will supply their holders with
money for tuition and expenses for year
or longer
In honor OF tho visiting Harvard men

night at a prominent cafe
