lessor was threatened with the loss
OF his position because, in the lecture
room, he happened to class as non
1uristic question the doctrine of
monarchy by divine decree.
That circumstance is illustrative
for in Germany every professor, be-
fore he takes office, is pledged under
oath to say or do nothing that will
reflect upon king or emperor. In
other lines of criticism, some free
dom is allowed, and in some fields
Germany has become the home of
higher criticism. A large amount of
freedom is allowed with respect to
morality on the part of German
teachings-the professor may teach
the morality of the barnyard, if he
chooses. But the 'staat, that is, the
emperor, is above criticism, and woe
to the teacher in Germany who
makes a mistake"
DR.. Howerth said that in the pub
lie schools in Germany there was in
common use, a map showing North
America in three strips of colors.
One strip of color represented the
negroes in the south. Another rep
resented the Indians in the west The
third strip included everything else,
represented as German; SO that
school children were taught to be-
lieve that North America was popu-
lated by negroes, Indians and Ger
mans. A little German girl, in the
old country, talking to small Amer
lean girl visiting in Germany, had be
fore the war insisted that the Amer
lean girl must be either negro or In
dian, since she was not German.
1T is with such a people," said
Dr. Howerth, trained in these be
liefs from the cradle up, that Amer.
lea is now at war to say whether ma
tions conceived in liberty and dedi-
Gated to the proposition that all mer
are created equal, shall continue tc
exist"

The feature of the evening was the
forceful address to the classes by
/ President f. o. Holland, who con-
trasted the methods and aims of edu-
cation in a democracy and an autoc-
racy. He showed how education in
| Germany has been modelled and used
| to foster a spirit of hatred and jeal-
ousy against rival powers and to pre-
pare the people for war. He traced
the results of this education in the
ruthless diplomacy of German states
men and the forcing of the present
war by Germany. He contrasted the
noble ideals of Lincoln, the product
of education in dem ocracy with the
selfish standards of the Kaiser, the
product of education in an autocracy.
His message was telling one and
made a deep impression on his au-
dience.

Big short Interest.

From the erratlc action OF some OF
the specialties 1t is apparent a large
short interest still exists In a number
OF issues, for Investment buying would
not account for tho wide movements in
ordinarily inactive stocks like Central
Leather and American International
which Jumped from half a point to a
point between sales. Canadian Pacific
also gave evidence of hurried buying
and In some quarters It was said that
the further rise>in Texas Oil and Mexi.
can Petroleum was partly due to cover
Ing operations of bears. In the case OF
Industrial Alcohol the bears do not
seem In as great hurry to cover. and I'M
der moderate trading 1t receded after
having advanced slightly. Good judges OF
the market believe the whole list Is still
alive with shorts. and that unless some
unforeseen event In connection with the
money situation should bring about an
other liquidating wave prices might ex-
perience another bulge.

Texas Company's Growth.

Just how much OF the buying of Texas
Company's stock is for investment or
FOR trading purposes is difficult to de-
termine, but 1t Is an open secret that i'm
portant oil men in the financial district
consider II one of the best of the oil
group. Its market position is similar
to a number OF other issues of big cor
porations whose remarkable earnings
are not fully reflected by their securi-
ties because OF money and other tech
meal conditions. Texas Company's Do
sition is interesting because OF the rad
ical change In its business In the last
few years. For instance. in the period
from the end OF the 1918 fiscal year.
June 80. to that date in 1918, gross
earnings increased from s25,sS2,000 to
$75,000,O0O. These dates are used for
comparative purposes. though Texas
Company's fiscal year Is now the CAL
endar year. In that same time net for
dividends grew from s6,663, 900 to about
$2b, 100000. an increase of some 900 per
cent. How wonderful Is the growth In
the four years referred to can be seen
by the fact that though the company,s
capital has been increased $44, 900, 900
or about 40 per cent. since 1913, the
earnings per share are now greater
than they were on the smaller capItali-
cation.

Employees Of railroads earned much
commentator for their liberality in sub
scribing to the first, second and third
Liberty boan bond issues. In the sec
ond loan they doubled their subscrip-
lions OF the first, and In the third more
than doubled those of the second. Are
they going to keep up this enviable rec
ord and double their third totals In the
next ioan?' asks the RGilway Age. tIt
looks easy. The Liberty Loan Commit
tee for the Seventh Federal Reserve dis
trict (Chicago) has made a detailed
compilation showing the Liberty Bond

In that district. In the first loan IL per

An average of Ss2.50 per subscriber :
In the second. 20 per cent. for an aver
age OF $3.50; in the third. 81 per cent.
FOR an average OF $72. On this basis
there should be for the fourth loan lao

More Money offered.

A slight improvement in the money
supply was reported by some firms,
thoy4h there was no easing of rates
Thesb was no Change In time funds, but
cay loans were more easily obtained, 1t
wfp said. due to some banks temporarily
having a surplus OF cash. This does not
alter the strict regulation of brokers'
loans, however. for until the financial
operations connected with the approach
ing Liberty loan are completed there IL
no likelihood Of money conditions show
Ing decided betterment. It was pointed
out that few houses would probably
show some expansion in their loans in
this mornings reports. but as the banks
were In a position to offer additional
money 1t would not be considered a vio-
lation of the existing restrictions.
