COURT RULING AIDS BAR
Columbia Law School Dean
Praises New Questions.

Harlan T.. stone dean OF the Columbia
University Law School, In his annual re-
port to President Nicholas Murray But
Ter. issued yesterday, says that the ruling
OF the Court of Appeals directing the
board of bar examiners to frame ques-
tons put to candidates for the bar in such
manner as TO bring out the ability or
the candidate to apply his knowledge Of
legal principles will have salutary ef-
feet on the bar of this state.
"A matter of vital Importance TO all
law schools and TO the development or
legal education in this country is the in
vestigation OF the law schools and instru-
mentalIties of legal education being UNI
dertaken by the Carnegie Foundation for
the Advancement OF Teaching. OF espe-
cial importance is the study TO be made
by the Foundation OF the methods OF eN-
animation for the bar throughout the
United States" the report states.
The report takes UP the question Of en-
trance examinations and finds that, al
though the trustees ruled that students
who had taken a college course Tor three
years could be admitted TO the SCHOOL
few had taken advantage of the oppor-
tunity. and suggests that the time mas
arrived now for limiting the membership
of the school absolutely to graduates oil
approved colleges and universities.
The development OF moot courts, Which
last year claimed 80 Of the 80 students
IS responsible, Dean Stone thinks, Tor inc
keen interest which students in the CO.
Iumbia school take in the active "ork oil
members OF the bar.

DISCUSS SAFETY At SEA
Delegates of Twelve Nations in
Conference in London.
KING GEORGES MESSAGE

Work of the Delegates-Lord
Mersey Chosen President.

London. Nov. r. The delegates to the
international Conference on Safety at

the British Foreign Office under the presi.
dency of Lord Mersey. the noted British
jurist. The Right Hon. Sydney Buxton
president of the Board OF Trade, in wei.
| coming the delegates on behalf Of the
British government. expressed the ferven,
hope that their labors might be fruitful OF
success.
Lord Mersey. who was chosen unani-
mousy as permanent chairman OF the
conference, warned the delegates that
Trey must discard the idea OF attaining
perfection. While the aims OF the confer
ence were simple. the means by which
they were TO be secured were far from
easy. Many Of them, he said could be
dealt with only by men of long experience
and expert knowledge.
While striving to reduce sea risks to a
minimum. Lord Mersey said the means
taken must not be such as would prevent
the reasonable handling OF a ship nor Of
such an extravagant kind as to destroy
the shipping trade. At the same time he
suggested that wherever doubt existed
the tendency should be always to lean
l,, lf,,a af Tot, \, ~,
toward the line Of economy. The In
creased cost incurred In the true interests
of safety would. the chairman said. be
met cheerfully by the public, who, after
all, were those who had TO pay.
A message from King George was read
10 the conference most cordially welcom-
ing the delegates. His majesty said:
The question the delegates are about to
consider is one In which I take a special
Interest, for IT affects closely the lives and
welfare of vast numbers OF my subjects,
and as a sailor have had personal expe-
rlence OF many of the matters which will
come up for consideration by the confer
ence. An international agreement on the
measures necessary 10 remove or 10 de-
crease the perils of the sea would confer
untold benefit on humanity throughout
the world. ! earnestly trust the labors of
the conference TO achieve this end may be
CT owned with success"
A luncheon in honor of the delegates
was subsequently given by Mr.. Buxton at
the Foreign Office. Sir Edward Grey, Sec
rotary of state for Foreign Affairs, was
among those present.
No fewer than twelve nations are rep
resented at the conference. These are
