DR.. Nearing at Clark.

ITO LIBERAL university circles throughout the
i United States the recent experience of Dr.
Scott Nearing at Clark University came as shock
DIR. Nearing in the midst of lecture on
the control OF newspapers pupits and universities
by vested interests Suddenly the president of the
university. the first institution established for grad
study in the United States, came into the
and turned out the lights
Only last week group OF George Washington
University students which undertakes sympathetic

in other educational centcrs.
President Atwood's act was rude and childish.
IL was hindrancc to higher education in the
United States-a justification of the European con-
tcntion that American universities arc not capable
oi abstract devotion science.
What DIR. Nearing said or did not say makes
Ettc difference. He has built up somewhat of a
reputation for drawing unjusti6able conclusions
from undigcstcd facts Newspaper men, with more
--iacts concerning the business at their command
know that part in the control of their journals
Is played by predatory wealth. Clergymen know
their pulpits not subject outside control Dr.
Nearing has just enough facts at hand to prove
his contention to his satisfaction. All needed
to dsprove them is to marshal few more facts
The president of Clark University by his
actions, admits that he has not these facts at his
command.
1t makes scant difference what Dr. Nearing
said. II there is place in the world where he
is entitled to say what he pleases long as anyosc
will listen to him, it is in the halls Of great
university before men supposedly capable of sift-
ing the wheat from the chaf
There is scant sympathy to be wasted on Dr.
Nearing. We must sympathize with Clark Uni
versity, which seems to have forsaken its mission
OF mining for facts, whether they be gold or clay.
We are forced rather into the suspicion that they
would have turned out the lights Darwin, hung
Thomas Jefferson. or burned Sir Isaac Newton.

Freud and Jung.
the Editor. The Washington Herald

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
I have been much interested in
the discussion conducted in your
columns on the subject OF medical
treatment I take the view set
forth by one of your contributors.
Mr.. II. Ronnell. as to the great
number of medical errors. cite
the following corroboration by a
medical doctor:

an article. "Credulity and Cures"
published in the journal of the
American Medical Association. De-
cember 6. 1919. ARE temporary.
self-limited. and tend to recovery
by nature unassisted."
Referring to the medical profess
sion. he says: Il am afraid. how
ever. that we too-just because daz-
zled by the effulgence of so many
new discoveries-share. in a meas
ure. the credulity OF the public in
remedial agencies. The same psy-
chologic factors are at work in us
as in the general public for the
creation of faith in the new drug
or in the new method. We do not
know enough about il to be suffi-
ciently critical. This ignorance of
ours prepares the ground for the
new belief. the new conviction. Its
value is asserted by authority
Then. again. there are the mar
velous mysteries behind all the new
names-hermones. opsonins. ehdo-
crimes. amboceptors. etc.
1T has interested me to go over
in this connection some of the
therapeutic measures, heralded to
the profession with more or less
vehemence OF assertion during my
own day. Some OF these have al
ready passed into oblivion.
Our past experience should lead
us to be extremely cautious and
skeptical in the presence of many
of the therapeutic measures before
us now. Leaders. despite their
great intelligence. and high posi-
ton, often stampede the rank and
file of US like sheep. Our leaders
are very human and subject to the
sway Of the personal equation

U. S. CERTIFICATES
CARRY WIDE APPEAL
TO MONEY SAVERS

More money was invested in the
new Offering Of Treasury Savings Ger
tificates in the Fifth Federal Reserve
District in March than in either Janu-
airy or February. as a result of the
nationwide campaign on the part OF
the Postoffice and Treasury Depart
ments to protect the savings of the
American people from unsafes invest
ments." says Postmaster T. j. Linthi-
cum, of this city.
A letter to the postmaster from
Howard T. Cree. Government director
of savings in this district, states that
the recent advance in the prices of
Liberty Bonds is making government
securities more popular and the de-
cline in interest rates generally is
making Treasury Savings Certificates
particularly attractive. The demand
for government securities has result
ed in larger sales of these certificates
than at any time since they were
placed on the market. Treasury Saw
ings Certificates to the amount of
S566,219, maturity value, were pur-
chased in this district in March, large
ly through the efforts of the post
masters.
The local postmaster expects great
ly increased sales here since a num-
Der OF letters have been distributed to
the patrons of this office, making
known to them the desirable features
of Treasury Savings Certificates.
