Are any boards of trustees, whether of
public or private institutions, exempt
from responsibility to the public? Is
any university, even if partly or who'll
! ly supported by private endowment, a
private institution Does the measure
of its accountability to the public differ
from that of the state university?
Cases of alleged breach Of academic
4 freedom during the past is months, af
fecting Lafayette college, the uniyersi-
4 ty Of Utah, and the University of Penn
sylvania, are reviewed by DR.. Capen, to-
gether with the findings in each case as
determined by organizations of scholars
who have investigated. With regard to
the Nearing case at the University of
Pennsylvania, DIR. Capen says;
Because of DR.. Meanings advocacy of
child labor laws and his indictment of
various other forms of industrial injus-

ly criticised in the past by certain of
the more conservative elements among

groups OF alumni, faculty, and students
have assumed that these activities con-
stitute the grounds for his dismissal. The
issue has been interpreted as one of free

ACADEMIC FREEDOM.
There are Always Agencies at Work to
Destroy 1t.

Is there real academic freedom in
American colleges and universities Are
professors allowed to speak their minds
freely, or are they merely "hired men
to be engaged and discharged without
assigned cause at the pleasure of the
university trustees These and other
questions affecting free speech in Amer.
lean institutions Of higher learning are
discussed by DR.. S. p. Capen, specialist
in higher education of the bureau of ed
ueation in his current review of the
year made to the secretary of the in
terror.
THAT there is always some pressure
exerted in academic communities, as
elsewhere, to keep radical propagandists
quiet and to discourage destructive crit
icism of the existing order none will
deny" declares DR.. Capen. Its extent
varies with the institution. As rule,
it il exorted subtly, often unconsciously,
in large universities which are supposed
ly free. Generally il 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
OF disciplinary action direct
ed by trustees and presidents of promi-
nent institutions against professors re-
puted to hold unorthodox political, eco
nomie, or religious views that the ques-
ton of academic freedom has become
one of the foremost issues
in university administration. Upon its
settlement depends not only the
integrity of the universities, but, more
the whole welfare of Amer
can education.
"The question is particularly acute in
private foundations. Are the trustees

Brattleboro Militia Company to Be
Mustered Out in Forenoon
VIII Leave at 1870 by Special Train
Col. j. Gray Estey Mentioned to
Head One Of New Regiments.
FORT ETHAN ALLEN, Oct. 5.


Beginning Saturday morning, the
various companies of the Vermont Nat
ional Guard will be mustered out. 1t
was expected that the muster out
would begin earlier, but change in
plans was made by the war depart
ment with a view to furnishing trains
for transporting the companies home
as units instead Of allowing the mon
three and half cents a mile. This
will mean that some of the companies
will have to be kept two or three days
more, which will offset at least a part
of the saving.
Companies, /, X and l. will be mus
tered out Saturday morning and Com
pany l will leave by special train at
100 p. m. 1t should reach Brattleboro
between and 8 o'clock Saturday
night.
The work on muster out papers has
proceeded rapidly during the past few
days. The physical examinations of the
men and officers have been completed,
first draft of pay rolls made, clothing
allowances figured, checks taken for in
dividual accountability for property
lost since the regiment came into the
federal service, transfers of ordance and
other property prepared, strength re-
ports submitted and returns of property
of the government tabulated.
