That is why these trustees starved out young

the Wharton School of Finance the principle OF
liberty of teaching.

He long was refused that advancement which
a man always gets in the school if his work is

of the Wharton School of Finance; but the self

They wanted a man who will not see that in labor
matters as well as in tariff it is the world, and
not the sun which moves.
