GERMAN PROFESSOR
ANGRY AT HARVARD

New York. April 2s.-Prof. kuno
Meyer, Of the University of Berlin. am
nounces in a letter to the Times that
he has resigned his candidacy as ex-
change professor at Harvard univer-
sity because of an anti-German poem
called "Gott Nit Uns" printed in one
of the student publications:
Professor Meyer announces that he
sent his resignation to President A.
Lawrence Lowell, of Harvard, inform-
ing him that he considers the poem
the crowning incident of a series of
acts from Harvard offensive to the
Germans and that he indorses the
hope expressed by my brother an
honorary graduate of your university,
that no German will again be found to
accept the post of exchange professor
at Harvard"
The poem won the prize in a com
petition instituted by the publication
of poems on the war. Professor Meyer
was to have filled his term as eN-
change professor during the next COL

B|LKED John BULL
Definite Accusation Made on
Floor of Parliament BY House
Member-Case Passed
In Silence.

London. April 29.-The definite accu-
sation was made on the floor of the
house of commons and passed over by
the government PRACTICAL, in si,encp,
that the firm of J. p. Morgan s. Co,
purchasing agents i'm America for the
British admiralty and war Office. had
not only misused their position by
placing important contracts with firms
with which they are themselves affil-
lated. but also by refusing to purchase
the same goods themselves at the ten
der prices and by selling them to the
British government at a higher rate.
The accusation was put in the form
of a series of questions to David Lloyd
George. chancellor OF the eXchequer. by
j. j. Mooney. Irish nationalist member
from Newry. Mooney will not be con-
tent with the cavalier dismissal of his
accusations. but declares he will, i.
necessary. either force an official in
vestigation OF the relations of the Nor
gan firm With the government or a re-
adjustment of their contract.

office. yesterday. proprietors Of 20 OF
the leading restaurants and informed
them that shows with scenery would be
permitted only in buildings designed es
pecially for theatrical performances.

ton to give costly cabarets. and hinted
that they would welcome an enforce.
ment of the law that would compel q
return to simpler and less expensive en-.
tertainments.
