Princeton, n. j., June 1.-The forces
Of American culture rallied here to-day
in an assault upon the position of those
who would Danish the study Of Latin
and Greek from American colleges.
The champions Of ancient lore came as
delegates to the convention of the Con-
ference on Classical Studies in Liberal
Education.
Representatives Of law, business, lit
crature, economies, art, medicine and
statecraft, as well as education, were
among their number. Those who could
not come telegraphed their views on
the value Of classical study. Among
these were President Wilson and for
mer Presidents Roosevelt and Taft.
The convention was held at the in
stance Of Princeton University. When
DR.. Abraham Flexner, Of the General
Education Board, criticised the value
Of classical as compared with utlll-
tartan studies, Dean Andrew Fleming
West, with the assent of his fellow
professors, called to-day's conference
in an effort to gather the best opinion
Wilson Defends Classics
"What you cannot find a substitute
for" wrote President Wilson, sis the
classics as literature; and there can be
no first hand contact with that litera-
ture if you will not master the gram
mer and the syntax which convey ITS
subtle power. You do not know the
world until you know the men who
have possessed it and tried its ware be-
fore you were ever given your brle1
run upon it,"
"A cultural education must include
the classics" declared Colonel Roose-
welt in his message to the conference.
Every liberal course should also IN
clude a wide sweep Of general history
and pre-history, for liberal scholar
should certainly have wildly in mind
the tremendous drama of mans prog
ress through the ages"
Mr.. Taft wrote that he strongly IA
vored the continuance of the classics
in academic education. 81 consider"
he continued, that addition to the
mental discipline which the study of
them affords. they are most helpful in
the matter of correct English style"
Opinions also were read from ten
other men prominent in American pub
lie life. twenty educators. including sew
eral college presidents, twelve success
full business men. ten lawyers, nine
physicians, ten engineers, sixteen other
scientists, nine historians and three
essayists and nine newspaper writers.
