Degree of Ph. ID.
Sought for Cain in
U. S., Survey States

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, October 10.--Less
than 25 per cent of the holders of
Il Ph. D. degree are productive
scholars, the American Historical
Association said today in the report
on national survey conducted to
discover the best means of expend-
ing income from it's $1,000,000 en-
dowment fund. Most holders of the
Ph. ID. degree seek to trade in
the degree for material success
rather than pursue scholarship and
research, the association said.
D2ploring the lack of research in
the social sciences, particularly his
tory. the summary divided the
blame widely. College presidents
were criticized for seeking to ac-
quire doctors of philosophy for
their faculties for advertising pur-
poses. Americas comparatively
low cultural level, measuring sue.
cess in dollars. and the opinion that
research does not pay adequate re-
turn, also were blamed in part for
slow progress in the social sciences.

Progressive Republicans of the
Senate will continue their fight against
the seating of Senators-elect Smith of
Illinois and Ware of Pennsylvania.
Senator Norris of Nebraska said
today.
Democratic Senators now in Wash
ington also indicated that they had
not changed their position and would
vote against seating Smith and Ware
Senator Reed of Missouri, chairman
of the slush fund committee, two
weeks ago in Kansas City stated that
lie had not changed his position and
would do his utmost to prevent the
temporary seating of Smith and Ware.
Senator Norris, commenting upon
published reports that Democratic
Senators had decided to permit the
seating of Smith and Ware when the
Senate meets with the purpose of un-
seating them later, said that he knew
of no such change on the part of the
Democratic Senators. He added such
a change would be qualification.
when the Senate by a vote de-
clined to permit Frank l.. Smith of
Illinois to be sworn when he pre-
sented himself during the last session

ernor." said Senator Norris, "it took
a definite stand on this question
There was less argument against the
seating of Smith at that time than
there will be against his being seated
when he comes here in December.
do not see how ny Senator who voted
against seating Smith in the last ses-
sion can vote to seat Smith or Ware
in the coming session.
Senator Norris said that he sup
posed Senator Reed of Missouri. as
chairman of the investigating commit
tee, would make the motion to refer
the Smith and Ware cases to the COM
mittee or to refuse to seat them at the
opening Of the next session. He added
however, that if such motion was
not made by Senator Reed, he was
prepared to make it himself.
Il know half dozen other Senators
who also would be ready to make
such a notion" said Senator Norris.
