HOOVER PROTESTS
MEMORIAL PHRASE
EmphaticaIIy Disapproves In
scription Proposed for Uni
versity of Louvain.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
President Hoover is emphatically op-
posed to placing the inscription, De
stroyed by German Fury, Restored by
American Generosity" upon the new
library of the University of Louvain, Bel
GUM, built by American subscriptions
obtained largely through the efforts of
the Chief Executive,
Since Whitney Warren, the architect
of the building, proposed and insisted
upon this inscription more than three
years ago, it has been the center of a
controversy that has even caused riot
ing in the little Belgian town and has
extended on several occasions to Amer
lea.
President Hoover Quoted.
at and those associated with me, in
the American gift of a library to the
University of LouYain," the President
said late yesterday in answer to the
inquiry of newspaper correspondent,
wish to emphatically disclaim any ap-
prevail of the action of Mr.. Whitney
Warren in insisting upon an offensive
inscription upon the building"
The library, he continued, was erect
ed at a cost of approximately 32,000,-
600 francs, all of which was provided
by American citizens, with more than
10 per cent coming through a commit
tee of which he was chairman and the
remainder through a second commit
tee headed by DR.. Nicholas Murray
Butler of Columbia University.
Prior Action Recalled.
The Chief Executive also called to
mind three years ago the authorities of
the university, with his approval, re-
fused to permit the inscription and
said that to the best of his recollec-
ton, DR.. Butler also opposed it.
Although protesting against the in
scription, Mr. Hoover said that Warren
had produced most notable building
of great credit to himself and the
nation
After the Luvain rioting, in the course
of which the police refused to allow the
erection of that portion of the building
that was to bear the inscription, War
rem took the case before the author
tiles and recently they decided in his
favor.
