Japan Stands OF Allies in China.

A strong belief is abroad, says the
matte interview. the foreign minister
informed the ambassadors Of Great
willingly disposed as Japan was to do
it's utmost to be Of help to the cause of
the Allies, the imperial government
did not see it's way clear to be party
to a proposal to bring China into the
war on their side. Officially the
strictest silence is maintained but
that very silence is thought to
strengthen the belief, which well fits
in with the wishes Of the nation.
The three powers proposal avowed-
ly has for its object the total eradica-
ton Of German influence in China, and
free access to China's resources for
the Allies benefit in the war and after.
AS to the first point. the Germans are
not so much in evidence in China as
they are in the United States; but the
Picking government bears no COMPARE
son with the Washington government
in the matter of having affairs under
cotrol, and its breaking of neutrality
for one side or the other will only add
to the causes that threaten disturb
ances in the country. In the second
place. as we have already said, the
Allies, if they would arrange it, can
have similar facilities in China to fill
their needs as in America. The i'm
perial government will spare no effort
to see that China does not abuse her
neutrality, SO as to keep down the
pernicious effect of German intrigues
and plotting and be we'll in accord
with the main aim of the entent pro-
posal. With that point assured, we
see no pressing need for forcing the
proposal on China, in which there is,
moreover, a danger of developing an
unfortunate situation.

Academic Freedom.

USoNVUbS V'SSNO's
Is there real academic freedom in
American colleges and universities?
Are professors allowed to speak their
minds freely, OF are they merely
hired men" to be engaged and dis
charged without assigned cause at the
pleasure of the university trustees?
These and other questions affecting
free speech in American institutions
Of higher learning are discussed by
DR.. S. P. Capen, specialist in higher
education Of the Bureau of Education
in his current review of the year made
to the Secretary of the Interior.
That there is always some pres
sure exerted in academic communi
ties, as elsewhere, to keep radical
propagandists quiet and to discourage
destructive criticism of the existing
order none will deny" declares. DIR.
Capen. Its extent varies with the
institution. AS rule. it is exerted
subtly, often unconsciously, in large
universities which are supposedly
free. Generally it vanishes as soon as
the right Of free speech is publicly
preached. Within the past two or
three years. however, there have been
so many occurrences of disciplinary
action directed by trustees and presi-
&c ne ont ING ipS<
professors reputed to hold unorthodox
political. economic, or religious views
that the question of academic free
dom has become temporarily one of
the foremost issues in university adj
ministration. Upon its correct settle
ment depends not only the integrity
Of the universities, but. more remote
ly, the whole welfare of American edu-
cation.
The question is particularly acute
in private foundations. Are the trus-
tees the employers Of all persons con-
nected with the university. the own
ers Of the business. as it we're. whose
will is law and not subject to ques-
ton? Has the faculty moral if not
a legal. right to be heard in matters
relating to appointments and dis
missals? In State universities the
trustees are less likely to resort to
starchamber tactics because the pub
lie has the power to force an account
ing. Still, instances are not I'M
known where the governing boards Of
State institutions have behaved as II
the institutions under their control
belonged to them. and neither the
educational officers nor the public had
the right to demand reasons for their
acts. Are any boards Of trustees,
whether Of public or private institu-
tons, exempt from responsibility to
the public? Is any university. even II
partly or wholly supported by private
endowment, a private institution?
Does the measure Of its accountable
ity to the public differ from that Of
the State university"

freedom during the past Is months.

Giving no heed to the winds that blow,

Cozy and warm lies the mother-fox,
And her three little foxes are cozy, too.
