The Unprotected Emptor

Secretary Carter Glass desires ma
tlona Blue Sky Law. There is much to be
said for it; something, perhaps, to be said
for the law maxim, "Let the buyer look
out!' people who never got a chance to
cut their eyeteeth might in time lose the
instinct of vigilance-The World.
The World holds it is none of its
business, except absolute fraud is estab-
lished, how often readers are tricked.
The fool is destined to be separated
from his money, and it makes little diff
ference who gets it. So the banner Of
cauedt enaptor is raised and Secretary
Glass is sneered at for his sympathy
with Blue Sky legislation.
But, as Colonel Roosevelt declared
ciety to shackle cunning as it has
shackled force. The policeman is spe-
clally charged with the duty Of corporeal
protection, but the citizen when he trav-
eled with lantern and private guards
was supposed to better care for himself.
We have advanced so far as to post
the plainclothes man and stop the
hand of the pocket picker, though it
may dull, perhaps, personal vigilance.
But to some degree the opinion still
prevails that it serves the filched right
If he succumbs to the allurement of the
promoter who bangles his bait in ad-
vertlslng columns. When the victim
complains, when he says it is too much
to expect an average man to analyze
accurately complicated financial state
ments or to know at glance when the
report of an engineer is honest, he is
ha-ha~ed at as one of uncut eyeteeth
and long and fuzzy ears.

the preservation of a confidence that

should suppress fraud at its source.

ter of that the money that is left is not
of the same denomination. The Columbia
law school insists on at least three years
OF college work as prerequisite Of ad-
mission, while no other law school in
the State of New York demands even so
much as one year. Because of this high
entrance standard and as a result of
its large endowment, the law school of
Columbia University stands in a class
apart, and that women qualified to enter
should be excluded from it as penalty
of their sex is a real grievance
The next contention is that women are
not SO well adapted for the study of law
as Cor the study of architecture, etc
This seems to us a highly speculative
proposition on the part of men who have
presumably had very little experience in
teaching women either law, on the one
hand, or architecture, etc, on the other
hand. And the late Dean Ashley of
New York University is we'll known to
have held the opinion, after years of
teaching at a coeducational law school,
that the law is profession for the study
and practice of which women are par
ticularly we'll fitted. AS for the male
students who would go elsewhere if
women were admitted at Columbia, if
they exist at all, it is safe to say that
they are not of "the highest type Alto
gether, the law faculty's defence is so
weak that it seems to have been produced
as an afterthought. What is probably
at the bottom Of their minds is mere
unreasoning aversion to change, and
that is not an attitude which ought to
be indulged at Columbia University.
