FRATERNAL SPIRIT
LAUDED BY DAVIS
Labor Secretary, at College
Convention, Advises Way
of Hard Work.
BY the Associated Press.


PITTSBURGH, December 31.-A
defense of the young people Of today;
a caution to tho college student on
the threshold of graduation to take
things slowly and by hard work
make their success in the world: and
condemnation of "brotherhoOd" as
IL is conceived in "bolshevik" Russia,
were contained in an address delivered
by Secretary of Labor James j. Davis
here today.
The Secretary. addressing the clos
ing session of the Delta Sigma Phi In
ternational College Fraternity con-
vention, told the young delegates that
most important of all they must not
seek an easy and quick path to success,
NUT must take the slow and sure way of
hard work. AS an example he pointed
to CALIFORNIA; recent murder sensa-
ton. saying that the youth involved
an honor pupil in schOol--sought the
easy" way and now. when his mind
should be filed with the brightest
before him the hangman's moose"
Refers to Lindbergh Grind.
AS an example of the success com.
ing to the hard worker, he pointed to
Col. Lindbergh. Americas ambassador
of the air. He told of the hard strug-
gle of the young aviator to gain edu-
cation: of his constant application to
his study Of aeronautics: of the slow
and arduous work in the air mail
service, and his untiring preparation
for transatlantic flight. MANY a
young fellow would have cried out
against the hard grind" he said. but
not Lindbergh. The truth is, his rise
lo 10 "a
slowly and was prepared"
The Secretary had much praise for
college fraternities and the brand of
brotherhood they teach--a brotherhood
unlike that of "bolshevik" Russia.
The fraternity brotherhood he termed
brotherhood of love. equality,
charitable and generous. The Rus
sian brotherhood he termed nothing
but an attempt of a band to stab the
brain. a million men. under
control of a half a dozen leaders, die.
tating to the remaining 10000, 900
what they shall do. how many hours
they shall work. what they can read.
what they are To think. and they call
that brotherhood
idea OF Brotherhood.
He labeled fraternal organizations
as tHe u ue Iufd VI DTOInefnOOu-tO be
mutually helpful to one another and
TO exemplify the concept of one for
all and all for one.
College fraternities are criticized
today. he added. mostly because.
when men get TO he so old that they
no longer are able to set bad exam

today are as good as their fathers
were at the same age and l think
they Will compare favorably with
their fathers. even IL their respective
