Separation of the brilliant students

means Of elevating the academic

That such Il separation was already
taking place in some of the more ad-
vanced colleges in America was noted

trend. 1t is moving in the direction
that will be productive of better
graduates and that will in the end
he pointed out, serve to replenish the
colleges with more resourceful teach

advantage eventually Of releasing en-
dowments for higher education for

Confederation of Italian Industries.
The secretary Of that organizati ton
declares that conditions in Italian

ing reduced hours. He asserts that
state Intervention in industry is al

dftion Of the railroads, which are run

The secretary attributes the ever
increasing cost Of living not to the
protection Of industries, but to the
growing expense Of manufacture and
to political speculation. Owners, he
says. must reduce wages not to strike
at the working classes. but to coun-
terbalance the increase in general ex-
penses. The confederation warns the
government that the owners must de-
fend their own interests.
Labor leaders declare that the, own.
