1--WE are unaIterably opposed
to international war. The Hearst
press inceSsantly promotes in.
ternatiOnaI i'll will, suspicion
and hatred; it misrepresents the
plans and purposes of other
peoples; it daily defames the

Hearst press has assumed the
leadership of the drive of deS-
perate capitalism to keep going
for a while at the expense Of
those who toll.
"The Hearst press has pre-
tended to be a champion of the
American Constitution. In &C
G.On it has made scrap Of
paper of the guarantees of free
speech, free pres and free as
sembly. 1t has indOrSed violence

81 view Of these facts, we
call upon American students
and faculties to exert every
effort to boycott the Hearst
press. We call upon college
editors and sports writer's to
withdraw all support from the

solicit their families and friends
to cancel subscriptions to the

HEARST WRITER
FETESED|TORS

James T. Williams, Hearst edi-
torial writer, was host today at an
informal breakfast attended by
the 81 college editors who are
having their first annual meeting
in Washington.
The breakfast was held in the
Metropolitan Club at Seventeenth
and H Streets Northwest. Prior
to the breakfast the students dis
cussed radicalism in American
universities.
Following the breakfast there
was a discussion of the rights of
a college editor to demand COM
plete investigation before being re-
moved from office. The students
were scheduled to leave Washing
ton today for New York City
where they will be entertained to-
night at a dinner given by Arthur
Brisbane, noted columniSt.
John S. Radosta, of New York
University, declared radicals will
dominate American universities
within 10 or IS years after they
have been thoroughly organized.
New York University, in his
opinion, is one of the most radical
schools in the country, and at the
same time one of the most liberal.
Radicalism. according to Mr..
Radosta, manifests a healthy at
titude of students toward Govern
ment and politics in that they are
becoming force in American
leadership.
Afterward the young editors
visited Vice President John N.
Garner in his offices at the
Capitol and then made a pill
grimage to Mount Vernon, where
they laid a wreath on the tomb
of George Washington.
The first annual session of the
college editors will conclude to-
morrow morning in New York

floor of a hotel in Trenton, %
miles away, and the lawyers for
the State will commute during the
trial.
Counsel for both sides have be-
come cagy. The State, for exam
pie, refuses to reveal whether it
will accept the offer from Norfolk,
Va, of John Hughes Curtis to tes-
tify as a prosecution witness.
Curtis is the shipbuilder who was
convicted of perpetrating a hoax
while acting as an intermediary in
dealing with the supposed 'kid-
naperS." Curtis was tried in Flem-
ington, sentenced to one year in
Jail and fined $1,000. Sentence
was suspended. but he paid the
fine.
Curtis Offer Weighed
Attorney General David T.
Wilentz said the offer of Curtis
to testify has been taken. under
advisement." He made it plain
the State would take its time in
reaching a decision. He declined
to say whether the State placed
credence in Curtis story. Curtis
is now quoted as saying he con-
tacted Hauptmann while conduct
ing his negotiations and that he
saw some Of the Lindbergh ran
som money prior to the finding Of
the baby's body.
When Curtis was tried here he
was defended by Lloyd Fisher,
who is now one of Hauptmann'S
lawyers. The fact Mr.. Fisher
knows Curtis so we'll is said to be
a factor which may deter the
prosecution from calling Curtis as
a witness.
Hauptmann Restless
Hauptmann, meanwhile, PAGES
his cell in the Jail just back Of
the courthouse. He is as aloof
and communicative as ever.
Now and then he is visited by
Fisher and his wife.
Mrs. Hauptmann and her baby
son, Mannfried, are living in a
home two blocks from the court
house. The sight of her wheeling
her baby along Main Street no
longer attracts undue attention.
She has become accepted by ma
tives as part of all this strange
whirlpool Of excitement.

The student delegates at the

affiliation only with the Socialist

much progress in enrolling the
students in the revolutionary
organizations the coming year."
OPPOSED TO WAR
Leaders of the convention de-
voted much time to pledging the
students to oppose preparedness
and to refuse to fight for this
country if it should become in
volved in war.
When told the convention was
being held on the campus of his
university, President Walter Dill
Scott expressed much surprise,
but explained his attitude toward
the radical students as follows:
eve are not paying much at
tentiOn to these youths. As a
matter of fact, the soil is not
conducive to their healthy
growth here-it'S too sandy. So
long, however, as the students
have something they want to tell
