COLBY COLLEGE
Colby Students Not to
Strikebreak Saws President

President Arthur J. Roberts stated
in his address at chapel this morning
that the men of the college will not
go strikebreaking In this nationwide
railway strike. II shall not offer the
services of the students of Colby to
the Maine Central railroad" he said
in addressing. the student body at the
chapel exercises yesterday morning.
Many of the students are not of age.
for one reason, and the other principle
one was the fact that there are men
inH this world that need the work more
than the average college student. tta
also stated that it might be good
thing TO have nationwide strike
that will cause real disaster. He DO
clared that the strike would rot be
real strike but rather a conspiracy
against the public.
But" he also added II think there
is enough patriotism in this country
today to fix the thing so that we need
not be continually threatened by rail-
way strikes
President Roberts gave as his chief
reason for not sending the Colby mln
to the railways the fact that there
are many men now without VI ork IN
the country. He said that these men
can step in and run the trains. and If
they are not enough, the college will
then do its duty. Meanwhile the men
of the college will stick to the job IN
hand and work toward devising a plan
by which such "intolerable conspira-
cies against the public welfare" may
be in the future averted.

ously near tonight to losing hi,
weeks fight in the chamber of depu-

But between now and tomorrow aft
ernoon when the debate on the gov

is admitted much may happen.
Nj. BRAND asked for the floor at
the conclusion o: NJ. Tardieu's
speech, but the chamber voted to adj

full of anxious moments that visibly
strained the nerves of the members.
M. Tardieus assault was based on
domestic political questions.
If the premier falls it will be be-
cause the entente republicaine" the
largest party in the chamber will
have gained the support of enough
adherents to form a majority on the
simple point that the biggest party
in the chamber must govern.

Lovejoy Printing
Press Discovery

The patron saint of Colby College
is Elijah Parish Lovejoy, graduate of
old Waterville College in 1926, ma
tive of Albion, Maine, and a martyr
to the cause of the freedom of the
press in the stirring pre-Civil War
lays. Readers of this paper doubt
less know. well the story of Lovejoy
how he left the college walls to
preach the ca spell. how he later en-
tered intJ the printing business in
Illinois, hos lie suffered the destruc-
ton Of three presses, and finally died
at the hands of Il mob when defend
irg his property. His heroic words
uttered before a council Of his fellow
citizens, Il have sworn eternal oppo-
sition to slavery, alid by the blessing
of God I will never go back" have
been chiseled into marble on a giant
shalt that towers above his grave in
Alton, Illinois, and appear on a
bronze tablet that adorns the wall of
| Memorial Hall at Colby, a building
erected to the memory Of those who
fell in ct OF 1ovejoy's martydom,
Lincoln wrote, TT is the most i'm
portant single event that ever hap
pcned in t,lc New World" and in
Faneul Hall it w3s Wendell Phillips
who rctuEed The Attorney General
for declaring that "Lovejoy died as
the fool Gitth," by declaring in fiery
tongue, Il thought those pictured
lips tporntng to the mural paintings
Of famous Americans) would have
/ broken INTO speech 20 rebuke this re-
crcant American, this slanderer Of
tie dead"
Another most interesting chapter
is now added TO the Lovejoy story in
the announcement contained in
Chicago dispatch that the printing
press, supposedly destroyed, had,
after its rescue, been securely packed
i'll boxes, and had found a perma-
nent guardian in the person of G. +.
Gunther, OF Chicago; and that with
the passing of Mr.. Gunther, the Chi
into possession of it. Loveioy was
killed in 1887, hence the press is
nearly 100 years old. Had it been
| known that the press was extant, eff
forts would have been made by the
State or by the College to have OBJ
tanned possession Of it. But wher-
ever it is, it will be a constant re-
mindcr OF the sacred principles of
free speech through free press, now
guaranteed by the Constitution, but
only gained after long and bitter
struggle by the press of our country.
