Washington's interest in the con-
ference is further augmented by the
fact that 1t is revolving about the
forceful personality of. the brilliant
president of Williams College,
Harry Augustus Garfield. The son
OF the twentieth Presiden. of the z
United States, Mr.. Garfield is one
of the very best of our organizing
and administrative college presi-
dents. The work which he did with
the Fuel Administration is well
known, and while he was at the
head Of this agency he lived in
Washington and naturally he and
his family made many warm
friends. Another monument to his
get.to-it spirit. which is less gen.
orally known is the work which lie
did in getting stranded Americans
out OF Munich in the hectic days
of 1914. They would probably be
there yet II 1t had not been for the
fact that Mr.. Garfield took control
or the situation and the local con-
suls office, organizing the Ameri-
cans into mutual benefit and pro-
tective association and obtained
therefor special transportation
from the Bavarian government
through the active zone of opera
tons to Holland.
