and obligations in the future, as patri-
otically it has done in the past"
Mr.. Harding spoke in part as fol-
lows:
''The memories Of war and of Prince
tons glorious part in the achievement
and maintenance of American liberties,
have ever been closely intertwined with
the traditions of her splendid gifts to
American scholarship, learning and in
tellectualism.
Proud to Receive Degree
Zone who possesses even general
familiarity with the contributions Of
Princeton to the establishment, the for

natlonel institutions must surely be
pardoned full measure of pride in be-
ing chosen to receive the distinction
you today are comforting upon me.
Stalfong here before the background of
those noble traditions and eminent ac-
complishments in which beats the
heart and lives the soul of the uniyer-
sity, one cannot but feel that to have
deserved this one ought to have served
well indeed. If there be misgivings as
to the merit of service in the past.
surely this distinction must inspire its
recipient TO redoubled effort to prove
worthy of it.
For me the real picture of Prince

one that conjectures itself around the
figure of old John Witherspoon. stout
divine scholar, teacher, author preach
er, president of Princeton, rebel by ma
ture. patriot by choice, member of the
continental congress. counsellor to the
fathers of state. signer of the decla-
ration and unrelenting fighter in the
cause of independence. Under such
leadership, small wonder that Prince
ton played a great and gallant part.

resourceful and uncompromising in field

which they claimed for Princeton in pa

through all the generations since.
For State Institutions

fine tradition to all its sons. Yet NAV
confess that l have always liked to

College of New Jersey. First of that
long list of the state colleges and uni

of Right to Strike;
Appeals to Congress.

Cincinnati, O., June 9.-Protests OF
organized labor, as voiced here Friday
at preliminaries for the annual con-
vention next week of the American
Federation of Labor, centered against
the supreme court, congress and state
legislatures in general.
Samuel GOmpers. president Of the
federation, in addressing club of busi-
ness men, interpreted the supreme court
decision in the celebrated Coronado
coal case as a negation Of the right to
strike, and declared that organized
labor would appeal to congress for new
legislation setting aside the decision.
In criticising the supreme court, Mr..
Gompers said that he expected to be
taken strictly to account" for his ut
terances, adding that II do not run
away from a fight"
But, it has come to pretty pass"
he continued, when an American citi-
zen can no longer discuss and criticize
the decision of the courts. Any one, if
he feels so disposed, can criticize even
the president of the United States or
the United States senate or the house
Pray of what flesh are the members
of the supreme court that they are
above criticism, beyond that of the
president of the United States?"
Delegates to the meeting of the metal
trades department of the federation. by
unanimous action, assailed congress and
state legislatures as enemies of labor
and declared for labors active partici-
patton in the fall campaigns in an
effort to elect it's friends regardless of
their politics.
In his speech. Mr.. Gompers said the
Coronado decision made international
unions indorsing strikes liable for dam
ages. He asserted this meant the unions
must withstand constant litigation or

NOT To SOAR,
b0RAH STATES

if Dealers Use Plan
of Hoover Unfairly.

Washington, June 9.-Congressional
investigation Of prices charged BY
bituminous coal operators and retailers
was promised Friday night by Senator
Borah of Idaho, chairman of the senate
labor committee. at a conference with
Secretary Hoover of the department
Of commerce, if the basic price scale
established at conferences between Mr..
Hoover with the committees Of pro-
ducing operators are made the basis
for profiteering.
Secretary Hoover was said to have
assured Senator Borah that in further
conferences with operators and deal
ers he would do his utmost to prevent
proflteering and to obtain price ad-
lustments to protect the public. and
Senator Borah was understood to have
agreed to withhold any investigation
pending the outcome of Mr.. Hoover's
action.
Ending Strike Not Talked
1t was said that at the conference.
which was held at Senator Borah's
residence at the instance of the COM
merce secretary. the question of gov
ernmental action for bringing about a
settlement of the strike was not dis
cussed.
The subjects discussed between
Secretary Hoover and Senator Borah
were said to have been the price agree
ments negotiated through Mr.. Hoover
and possible congressional action, in
Guiding legislation. It was said that
Senator Borah had no desire to inter-
fere with Mr.. Hoover's price negotia-
tions so long as they were not made
the means for charging excessive
prices. But it was said Senator Borah
had questioned the legality of the
Hoover price agreements.
The conference lasted an hour. II

would proceed forthwith to secure ad-
justment of prices based on a maxi
mum price of $3.50 a ton and also to
take steps to prevent operators from
charging unreasonable prices to re-
tailers. Following the conference.
Senator Borah made the following
Borah for Fair Deal
my position at the conference Fri
day night was simply this. If the
operators and retailers work together
and will cooperate to protect the pub
lie in the matter of prices, l should
not favor at this time any investiga-
tion and would let this price PROPOSE
ton work itself out If it will.
But if the maximum which has been
fixed by Mr.. Hoover is going to be
used by the operators as a minimum
price and thus pushed on to the re-
tailers and the operators and retailers
together take advantage of the situa-
ton to boost the price to the public
would favor an investigation to force
4 complete exposition with a view to
laying the foundation for public CON
trol."
