significance of such special learning
as the college courses have poured
into the student.
Such revision Of the university
point Of view is welcome. 1t is un-
doubtedly step in the right direc-
tion and certain to give high rank
at college an increased respect. But
the American point of view changes
slowly, and with reason. Initiative,
energy, imagination - the qualities
that we as a nation rate most highly
are not the least measured by col
lege marks as they have been award
ed in the past. Participation in other
college activities - athletics, COL
lege periodicals and 80 on - has
been much truer test as rule.
Until the whole attitude of college
students is overturned there can
scarcely be great change in the
popular attitude; and such an over
turn, involving an end Of the ma
tional distrust of sheer theory and
the professional point of view, seems
still afar.
New-York tribune., 1921-01-18

Importance, while similar figure for
Poland (40.5 per cent? plays decisive
role, especially as, thanks to the disas-
.rous results of the German occupation,
military operations and the Bolshevik
INVASION, Poland has no means Of pay
ng for this coal in foreign currency.
AS to the iron industry, l will men
tion only that hardly 10 per cent of the
ron ore was received by Upper Silesia
frsnl Germany. Poland, on the other
hand, possesses enormous beds of iron
ore, reserves roughly calculated to
amount to 300,000,0o0 tons, which would
enable Upper Silesia, in the event Of its
incorporation with Poland, to cover it's
entire yearly consumption of iron ore
(in 1913, 100000 tons). The Ton pro-
duced in Upper Silesia was consumed in
Poznania and on Silesian territory out
side of Upper Silesia, so that the sepa-
ration Of Upper Silesia from Germany is
OF no consequence and at the same time
opens up market for the rest of
Poland, which was unable to cover its
needs by local production.
With regard to zinc, I may point to
the fact that in 1913 the present terri
tory of Poland consumed SO per cent of
the zinc produced in Upper Silesia.
Upper Silesia's supplies of aeri-
cultural products before the war de-
pended on territories of present Poland
as may be seen from the following table
of 1912:

Anti-Sernitisrn

The formal condemnation of anti
Semitic propaganda in the United
States by President Wilson, ex-Presi-
dent Taft, President-elect Harding
and many others representative of
every phase Of American life is
timely. Let US kill at the beginning
the attempt to introduce another
kind Of race prejudice into the
country.
But harm rather than good, it
will seem to many, will be done by
overemphasizing the liveliness of
the menace. Henry Ford has dis
played great ability in the quantity
production of motor cars, but the re-
suit Of his various attempts to in
trude into public affairs has scarcely
shown he is to be taken seriously in
other respects. Since the first ship
load of Jews came to this country
from Brazil they and their success
sors have found America land of
freedom and opportunity. They have
prospered and they have taken a
great part in the making of the Re-
public. There is no reason to appre-
hend a change.
If recently there has been any
thing to complain of, let every in
telligent Jew consider whether this
is due to race prejudice or to the
fact that the Trotzkys have brought
in their baggage ideas as much op-
posed to Judaism as to Americanism.
Americas Jewry clearly has double
reasons for centering it's efforts
against the revolutionaries. The
Red Jew is as anti-Jewish as he is
anti-American.

The Dry High Seas

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: If vessel flying the American
flag is under the jurisdiction Of the
United States while on the high seas,
why should it be immune from the pro-
visions of the Volstead act? If the
Edmonds bill excludes American vessels
on the high seas from the operation of
the Volstead act, why can't any state in
the Union be excluded from its pro-
visions?
Your statement as to the effect this
ruling will have on the progress and
development of the merchant marine is
obvious; but the Volstead act is a fact,
and while such an exemption would be
advantageous to the people of the
United States beyond question, yet it
seems to the writer it would be highly
inconsistent. We cannot upset the ira
ditional and accepted forms Of govern
ment in order to make exceptions to
laws for particular interests-they
ought to operate the same for all.
The writer has always been of the
opinion that the proper way to handle
the prohibition question was local op-
tion and the smaller the unit of ter
rtory affected tho better.

An Ancient Authority

10 the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Ellen MCGOWAN Biddle in her
letter printed in to-day's Tribune is
right, and she is backed by a very high
authority:
Wine is as good as life to man. if
1t be drunk moderately; what is life
then to man that is without wine? for
1T was made to make men glad.
Wine measurably drunk and in sea-
son bringeth gladness of the heart and
cheerfulness of the mind:
But wine drunken with excess
maketh bitterness Of the mind, with
brawling and quarrelling.
Drunkenness increaseth tho rage of
fool till he offend: it diminisheth
strength and maketh wounds.
"Rebuke not thy neighbor at the
wine and despise him not in his ,nirth:
give him no despiteful words, neither
press upon him urging him to drink"
Ih's Is as wise and sensible state
ment as any that have ever seen. It
occurs in the 31st chapter of the Book
OF Eccelesiasticus. the 9th to the 3lst
verse. inclusive.
1t would be very interesting to know
what the prohibition fanatics, those Of
them who are Christians. think about
when they read in ancient books Of wis.
dom such passages as have quoted.
CHAuNCEY HACKETT.
Washington. D. c., Jan. z, 1921.
New-York tribune., 1921-01-18
A Citizen of America.

1t is easy for young man to be-
come confused in these days of great
monetary rewards easily won. But
there can scarcely be any permanent
doubt for any mind of imagination
as to what the great goals of achieve
ment really are. If there is hesita-
tion, such report as that of the
international honors planned for the
memory of General Gorgas brings
the truth back sharply for all Amer
leans to see and heed.
1t has always been and it is still
the great creators, working in the
mind and the imagination, who are
the great servants of man. To them
belong and inevitably come the glory
and love of many generations. Flo
quent and appealing words were
spoken at the Washington gathering
in honor of General Gorgas. Rep
resentatives of many nations united
in his praise. He was spoken of as
"a typical American n"-he, a scien-
tist, discoverer, passing by hope of
great monetary reward to take his
place in the unending war of civili-
zation against disease.
There is an infinite store of the
spirit Of General Gorgas in Amer
ican youth. To cherish it, to hold up
before our nation the ideals which
inspire it, are the first duty of every
leader of American thought. Money
in itself can buy nothing worth a
strong mans notice. There should
be national scorn Of the mere
money grubber, of money in itself.
The highest honors and respect
should go to the creator. whether he
be doctor saving his fellows from
disease OF the inventor placing
new machine at the service of the
world or the organizer Of a great
industry adding new economies to
the wealth of the world.
New-York tribune., 1921-01-18
High Marks

The most interesting portion of
President Lowell's annual report was
that passage in which he sought to
find out why high marks in college
courses are so poorly rated by the
world in general. This is not true
of the law school, he notes. Nor is
it true Of technical or professional
schools generally. 1t is universally
true of the popular attitude toward
high rank in college. The 'grind"
stands as low in the estimate of bank
presidents and factory superintend-
ents as he does among his class
mates.
President Lowell considers that
there has been some improvement
in this condition at Harvard; but
he comedies that great shift in
public outlook remains to be accom-
plished. He debates frankly how
much of the blame rests upon the
university and how much upon pop
ular error. In England, he notes,
a mans career at the bar or in
public life is greatly assisted by tax
ing high class of honors at Oxford
or at Cambridge. In France, like
wise, the gateway to success in
many careers is opened only by a
series Of rigorous competitive ex-
aminations.
The general examination is the
most interesting effort Harvard is
making to restore respect for col
lege ranking. 1t is given at the end
of the senior year and makes a
double demand upon the student.
He is obliged to review at the end
Of his last year the entire ground
covered by him in his chosen field.
Also he is obliged to do some outside
reading and study in order to corrc-
late the courses which he has taken
and fill up, to some extent, the in
tervals between them. This is not
parallel to the general information
examination which has been given
for some years at Bryn Mawr, for
example; therein the everyday
knowledge Of the student is tested
by questions similar to those which
gave Henry Ford such an uncom-
Portable day on the witness stand.
The Harvard examination tests
rather the broader bearings and

435 Are Enough

If the Republican steering COM
mittee can prevent it the House of
Representatives will not pass a re-
apportionment bill creating forty
eight new seats. The Census Com
mittee's bill, providing for such an
increase, was based on a theory of
comfy similar to Senatorial
courtesy" No state was to have it's
quota reduced, however unreason-
ably the quotas of other states
might be swollen.
The steering committee has fig
ured that this little concession to
state sensitiveness would cost the
government 100000 year. The
rty-eight new members would
draw, besides their salaries, mile
age, secretarial and stationery al
lowances, and Office quarters would
have to be provided for each Of
them. The extra charge might
easily run over $1,000,000.
ECONOMY has now, at last, some
Mold on the country and per-
haps the economical argument will
checkmate the expansionists. on
whom other arguments equally
sound have made no impression.
The steering committee says truly
that there is no service demanded Of
the lower branch Of Congress which
cannot efficiently be rendered by a
body OF 435 members. 1t might
have said with exactly az much jus
tafcation that a House Of 345 men,
hsrs, for instance, would be as eff
Gent as one Of 43E. 1t would prob
ably be more 30, for the history Of
the House thoroughly disproves the
claim that increased membership has
brought increased efficiency.

Alone IN a Great City

Mr.. Hylan's bosom palpitates with
love Of the people night and day.
But he has queer way Of dissem-
bling his affection. No hated despot,
afraid of his life and cherishing
only scorn Of the populace, could
hold himself more aloof from the
public, could keep himself more
carefully safeguarded against con-
tact with the rude representatives
of the multitude. Hidden and Sc
questered sits His Honor in his Of
flee.
A Hearst reporter can get to
him at will. So, apparently, can
an Office boy Of Mr.. Hettrick with
letter to be signed by the Mayor.
Other interviewers are there none.
Lately even the political intimates
of Mr.. Hylan have dropped away.
That subpoena issued at the request
of the grand jury and expressing
the will of the people Of the State
of New York was served on the
Mayors secretary, we believe. 1t
brought the Mayor to time, to be
sure; but the sacred inviolability of
His Honor's privacy was preserved.
What sad transformation is this
gloomy figure alone in New York
(save for such consolation as can be
CLEANED from the company of the
sputterlng Enright) by comparison
with that CHEEKY citizen who trudged
the bridge in his first flush of office
holding as an object lesson of sim
plicity and friendly mingling with
the mere public!
New-York tribune., 1921-01-18
Off His High Horse

Mayor Hylan has had change
Of heart. No longer he arrogantly
denies the necessity Of any investi-
cation into his administration or
the right of any department of the
state or county government to make
such an investigation.
s Yesterday, taking Police Com
missioner Enright with him, he
visited Mr.. Whitman and offered
belated assistance to ths grand jury
which, under Mr.. Whitman's direc-
tion, 10 inquiring into the conduct of
the city government.
Mr.. Hylan went even further. He
offered to abrogate police Rule 1874,
which requires all policemen assist
ing in the investigation by the grand
jury to report to the Commissioner
all that happens to come to their
knowledge.
1t is gratifying to discover that
even Mr.. Hylan's thick hide can be
penetrated. 1t is especially crafty
ing to The Tribune, which first di-
rected public attention to the neces-
sity Of investigating the city admin
istraSion, and which brought to
light the fact that Rule 1S4 barred
the way to searching investigation
Of the Police Department.
IF Mr.. Hylan keeps his promise to
Mr.. Whitman we believe that the
grand jury will be able to convince
even Mr.. Hylan that under Mr.. En-
right the police force is utterly in
competent to deal with the present
crime situation. We believe also
that the grand jury will make dis
closures which will bring about a
thorough legislative investigation,
which is the only way in which all
the facts can be brought out.
AS to Mr.. Enright's reported
resignation, that is secondary mat
ter at this particular time. Mr.. En-
right ought to be removed. His very
denial of the existence Of a crime
wave in the face Of such an epidemic
OF violence as the city has never
known is sufficient proof of that.
If Mr.. Hylan intends to remove
him, well and good. If he intends
to allow him to resign, that is less
to Mr.. Hylan's credit, but it will
still dispose Of Mr.. Enright.
The Tribune's concern and the
concern Of the citizens is to get
competent and honest police admin
istration. That was the purpose of
the exposure of the, Police Depart
ment. That is the object of The
Tribune in demanding legislative
investigation.
One thing is certain. Mr.. Hylan
has discovered that even with the
backing Of Hearst and Tammany he
cannot stand against public opinion.
And The Tribune rejoices that it has
been largely instrumental in assist
ing him to make this discovery.
New-York tribune., 1921-01-18
A Modern Church Convention

The Rev. DR.. Percy Stickney
Grant, of the Church of the Ascen-
sion, an excellent gentleman whose
clerical garments do not always seem
to fit him, has some. ideas in connec-
tion with the election Of successor
to Bishop Burch of the Protestant
Episcopal Diocese of New York.
One idea is that he would rather
have Chairman Hays Of the Repub-
lican National Committee manage
the election than have the campaign
"run the way it is now" Another
is that the various candidates have
platforms" to be advocated on the
church hustings. DR.. Grant says
his platform would be to relegate the
Apostles and Nicene creeds to the
appendix Of the Prayer Book, acces-
siblc but not emphasized as a part of
the church service. Furthermore,
he would repeal the church laws
against divorce. Besides, he would
have what he regards as a more
advanced" social and economic
spirit in the church. Finally, he
takes a slam at a $15,O00,00O ca
thedral, apparently being Of the
mind of the Germans in front of
Rheims, that piety in stone is nom
sense.
No wonder one brother clergyman
cries out in pain, "That isn't plat
form; it is an indictment" One can
picture the diocesan convention un-
der the new dispensation. On ap-
propriate soapboxes the leather
lunged would shout for their favor
ties. Placards would read: "Vote
for Grant and Easy Religion!"
"Down with Manning and Patriot
ism!" Remember Whom Comrade
Lenine Wants."
But on reflection it does not seem
as if the worthy doctor went far
enough. He speaks as if a majority
should rule. Let him remember that
the truly advanced doctrine now is
that it is only self-conscious mi
nority which is entitled to mastery.
Let him organize his crowd and go
and club all those who disagree. 1t
may be surmised that nothing short
Of complete acceptance Of the new
truths will satisfy the orators Of the
Ascension Forum.

ployees in order to ease the strain
on the Treasury. 1t would stultify
itself by enlarging it's own estab-
lishment. States have often seen
their delegations reduced in size.
The law of relative growth controls
in such matters. Virginia had
twcnty-three members from 1910 to
1920. Now she has only ten. New
York had forty members from 1910
to 1920 and thirty years later had
only thirty-one. Maine had eight
members between 1880 and 1910
and now has only four.
An apportionmcnt with no in
crease in membership would
measure satisfactorily the excess of
growth in some states in the last
decade and the shortage in others.
California would gain three seats !;
Michigan and Ohio two apiece
Connecticut, New Jersey, North
Carolina, Texas and Washington
one apiece; Missouri would lose two
seats, and Indiana, Iowa, Kansas,
Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Mis-
sissippi, Nebraska, Rhode Island and
Vermont one each. The census fig
ures play no favorites. It is foolish
to try to mitigate the effects Of the
count on state pride. 1t is still
more foolish to do so when it in
creases the cost of government and
dilutes the Houses working power
