After she talked with severa, members
OF the Banking Committee II was decided
that Miss Taylor would not appear. as she
had made a full disclosure OF the cir
cumstances and as to the work she was
performing IN the Treasury Department
when she was ordered out by Secretary
McAdoo and Assistant Secretary WILL
Jams.
In his testimony before the committee
Mr.. Allies referred to this incident as
an illustration OF the unfair treatment
accorded by the Treasury Department
to the National City Bank and himself
as the representative of that institution.
He said that II either Secretary Nc
Adoo or Assistant Secretary Williams
had intimated to him that Miss Tay-
lors presence at a desk In the Treasury
Department was not agreeable to them
she would have been taken away at once.
He said that evidently this method or
dealing with a refined woman did not
serve the purposes Of the Treasury ON

I'VE have now = supreme opportu-

intellectual leadership. Whether the
war continues three months or three
years. our opportunities and obliga'

America should respond by offering
the best opportunity in the world for
her own students and for those who
may come from other countries.
In the case Of South America this
student migration will Be facilitated
BY the opp0rtune opening Of the Pan

within tho last two decades the
increase in opportunity for graduate

very remarkable much greater than
most people even in America realize.
The recent raising of standards and
the better equipment Of medical
schools, the large endowments and ap.
preparations for all forms of engineer
ing, the marvellous growth Of our col.
