BY POST CRADUATE WORK
New Course Will BE Offered at
Union Theological Seminary
at Next Session.
HOPES TO END EMPTY HONOR
President Moore Favors Scheme So
That Title Will Not Bc Chcapencd

tcrs Without Actual Study for 1t.

Under a new course TO be offered
by Union Theological Seminary at tho
opening OF tho mex session, ministers.
10y a thrcc-ycar post-Sraduatc course
may earn the dcErcc Of doctor OF di-
vinity. The seminary has never made
a practice of comforting honorary de-
Erccs. but a number OF colleges
throughout the South have at each an
nual commencement conferred the dc
gree Of D., -. on one or more clergy
men. giving them in many instances
to men who were MOI even graduates
OF that college. so that the degree has
been threatened and 10 some extent
been rendered meaningless.
AZ tn" recent meeting of the board
Of trustees Of Union Seminary "a plan
was adopted on recommendation OF
President w. w. Moore, inauSuratinS
with the opening of the next session
+" threc-ycar correspondence course,
open only tn ministers III active re
!iEiGus work. with carefully safeguard
ed examinations and with the provision
that the last three months of tho course
must he taken IN residence at the sem
mary.
NEW COURSE OPEN
TO ACTIVE MINISTER'S
inc seminary now grant the degree
of bachelor OF divinity to full-Srad-
yates OF the thrce-ycar course in the
ology, who have matriculatad at Union
seminary with the degree of y. Is. o.
IT'S equivalent, from some STANDARD
college. The new course will be open
TO any clergyman who has been eight
years in active ministry. whether Il
graduate OF Union Seminary or not.
or to 4 minister holding a bachelor
OF divinity degree from Union Sem
mary who has been III the active min
istry for five years.
The new course j. understood to
have the individual approval OF the
trustees Of MANI colleges in this sec
ton, who. at or about the time of the
annual commencement have been i'm
portuned. by the friends Of various
ministers TO award them honorary de-
Rrees. of course the seminary board
Is not in "A position TO stop the Civ
inE OF purely honorary degrees By
colleges. The seminary. il, is stated,
has never followed this practice. nor
has the University of Virginia, and
the hope is expressed that when tho
new system has been fully naugu-
rated the giving OF meaningless de-
Erces will he checked, and those who
get such honors will have 10 work for
them.

LONDON, Nov. 21.-Elintherios Veni-

vigorous letter to the Times, makes clear
for the first time what his future atti
tude toward King Constantine will be
and how he hopes, with the aid OF the
entente force, to guarantee that the
crown never again will be able to EEK
coed strict constitutional limits of a linz
tied monarchy" similar to that of Great
Britain.
I'VE cannot be accused" says NJ. Vent

We come into conflict with the crown Oh

up at Athens and on account of our re-
solve to claim in the name vL the people

are entitled 10 decide their own destinies.
Even II 1t be this conflict which has
provoked our movement, L state emphat-
ically that our movement has not been
organized with the object of achieving
a settlement OF that conflict. We have
no intention OF settling it by force OF
ars. nor OF dealing with it at all while
the war lasts. For the present our at
tention is absorbed by our country's en-
envy.
After the war has terminated, how.
ever, and we are ensured as far as pos
sible the safeguarding of our national
interests and have raised Greece from
the position to which she has sunk
through her Violation Of the Serb-Greek
treaty-then we vii SEQ what guarantees

the possibility of a limited number Of
persons around the king, imposing on the
crown opinions which are in direct rom
tradiction to the will of the people and
of forcing on the people against their

try TO national suicide.
'SThe conflict to which I refer can oily
be decided in one way-namely. by the
free verdict Of the people. We shall
ask to be assured Of this freedom in a
practical manner and are convinced tina:
the allies OF the entente will assist US
to this end. 1t is only in the event of the
Greek people being prevented after the
war from expressing their decisions free
Iy that the danger OF civil warswill arise.
A settlement Of the Greek constitutional
problem will doubtless interest the en-
tente from the political as well as the
moral point Of view.
Nothing but the establishment of
the constitutional regime which has been
violated and the restitution to the peo-
pie of the right to decide their own des-
TIMES can offer any guarantee that
Greece will continue in close and cordial
relations with the entente. A continual
ton OF the absolutist rule from which
We have been suffering the past twenty
months would always make necessary
the departure Of Greece from her natural
path and rapprochement with the CEN
trail powers. We wish to ensure our
right to be a free people. masters OF our
own destinies; wherefore, we are conf
dent that the entente will grant us that
material and moral support needed to
bring our struggle to a successful con-
clusion."
