Four Thousand of Them Met
Last Week in Chicago;
Tulsans Attended.
BRITISHERs THRILLS THEM
Sir Berkeley Moynihan Talks
of Philosophy and War, as
Well as Science.

The American College OF Surgeons.
comprising a membership of about
four thousand surgeons, closed It's
sixth annual convocation last Friday
night In Chicago, and one of those in
attendance, DIR. Fred s. Clinton OF
Tulsa. has brought home wonderful
story of war surgery that he CLEANED
from the sessions.
"The crowning feature of the weeks
clinics and addresses" said DIR. Clin-
ton yesterday, "was the mastcrful pre-
sentation of the intellectual viewpoint
OF the present war, and a critical anal
ysis of the causes of the war, by Sir
Berkeley Moynhan, professor of surg

consulting surgeon to the British army,
who came as England's special repre-
sentative.
"Ic said that this is a moral war,
a holy war; II there ever was one. IT
was a war, he pointed out In which
real peace can come only in one way,
for you cannot compromise. with the
forces of evil. In success Is found the
most ample apology for the Prussian
creed. Against this is liberty. the in
alienable right of every man to live.
an inspiration derived from within"
Hampers Science.
DIR. Clinton quoted Sir Berkeley as
saying
Tyranny means every individual
unit must receive his imprint from the
state. 1t implies the capture by the
state of all the machinery OF educa-
tion. No scientist In Prussia can OBJ
tain promotion or decoration II per-
soma non grata with the government.
SO German education has been made a
master weapon In the hands of the
militarist party.
Tho German people seem to hold n
herd opinion on many problems.
There are too many ready-made opin-
ions among them, too much reliance
upon the judgment of experts, too
much effervescent consciousness OF
excellence.
Free nations are different. They
believe in team games as part Of edu-
cation. Germans think this is n
waste of time. The greatest praise
to an Englishman is that he played
the game, not that he won.
The issue for tho world of science
is ut stake. Tyranny cramps the In
tellect, atrophies mental independence,
and means at least intellectual decay
and death. Progression in science
depends upon the freedom of all pro-
cesseS OF tile 'uuhiuH hiiHu --upoi'

value can come from the absence OF
intellectual morality"
Many 60. Others Wanted. -
1t was stated by DR.. Franklin Mar
tin, secretary OF the college, accord
ing to Doctor Clinton, that about 25
per cent of the members had respond
ed to the call for army service, and
that a much greater number would
be pressed into line.
The one great task of the college
