 Equally as crisp and straight forward were his other answers, presented in the accompanying box.
 In his opposition to public power development and revision cf the constitution to make 1t more flexible, he was, take It, ex. pressing the orthodox viewpoint oi 6 regular.
 But if you want to touch the real passion of the man just men. ton farming. He's dirt farmer and proud of 1t. Among the sev- en or eight men most prominent lv mentioned for the Republican nofnination he is the only one who actually lives on the coil and worries about whether they get the hay in or not.
 Prophets and political soothsay- ers hold rather unanimously that the farm states of the middle west will decide the election this No- yenber. This almost automatically calls, they claim, for the Republican l1ore to come from this log-cabin beit. He must be at least somewhat of N corn-and-hogger.
 LAndon, vandenberg, Knox and Dickinson all pass this test-with Borah and Keynoter Steiwer Tar westerners passing with a ven- he Ance. But Dark Horse Wadsworth, according to these vote-counters, comes from the wrong side of the Allegheny Mountains.
 Anyway he is the one genuine present-day farmer of the bunch. in the rich Geneseo Valley in New York he runs his l4,00O an- cestral acres, fattens his thousand head of steers each year, and con- cerns himself with every detail of his large operations.

 At 27 he started his political career as an Assemblyman at AL bany. Three years later he was elected speaker of the assembly, and after serving for four years left politics to become Texas rancher. In 1914 he returned to New York state and was elected to the U. s. Senate. Reelected, he became in- volved in the bitter anti-prohibiton fight, and in 1926 the drys ran Republican independent against him, enabling Robert F. Wagner, a Democrat to grab the prize.
 For the next six years Wads- worth retired from active politics, but four years ago he was elected to the Lower House.

 Listening to Wadsworth, one caught the feeling that here was a man who unconsciously accepted his own inherent superiority. He was se- cure in family, wealth and position. He was to the manor born. He re- presented the last dying gasp of our true landed gentry.
 In the English Parliament he would have been at home with scores of other Tory gentlemen of large acres. Here in our rough- and-tumble House of Representa- tives he is one of the comparative ly few non-lawyers.
 He has had splendid time throughout his 58 years. Tn the late spring days of '98 he played first base for Yale against Har- yard and Princeton. On the day he was graduated, when he still lacked three months of being 2l, he hurried south and enlisted as a private in Battery A, Pennsyl- vania Field Artillery, bound for Porto Rico and action in the tail- end of the Spanish American war. Mustered out of service, he took over the management of the family farms.

ACADEMIC FREEDOM
and The CRISIS

it is being curtailed even in the
United States.
At the present time there are 10y
atty oath laws which pick out
teachers as a special target in 20
states of the Union and in the Dis
trict of Columbia. Some of these
laws call for fines or Imprisonment.
Chief of the reactionary or Fas-
cist forces that seek to abrogate aca-
demic freedom is William Randolph
Hearst, who is responsible for the
McNabee Resolution ~(recently
adopted by the New York State
Legislature) to investigate Com
munist activities in the schools.
Hearst, through his chain of news
papers, magazines, motion pictures
and radio stations, inspired some of
the most repressive laws placed on
the statute books during the past
few years. -
At the national convention of the
National Education Association, in
Portland, Oregon, a spokesman for
National Commander Ray Murphy
of the American Legion repudiated
the teachers oath campaign that is
still going on in many states. The
New York County organization of
the Legion also condemned efforts
to interfere with freedom of con-
science or to restrict the liberties
guaranteed by the Constitution at
a recent convention.
The intimidation of students has
gone forward at the same rate as the
intimidation of teachers. Students
who have participated in anti-war
demonstrations and other activities
frowned upon by school administra-
tons and donors have been the chief
victims.
Robert Burke, an honor man and
outstanding athlete Columbia Uni
versity, has been suspended for pro-
testing against the University's par
ticipation in the Heidelberg ami
versary in Nazi Germany. School
children belonging to a religious
sect, Jehovah's Witnesses, have been
refused admission to schools in nine
states, and a court judgment to send
three Belchertown, Mass, children
to the county reform school is now
awaiting appeal. Over 100 children
of this sect have refused to salute
the American flag because it is &
man-made symbol.
The first attempt by Congress tc
censor education in advance was
made in 1885 when the red rider
was attached to a District of Column
bia school appropriation bill just
before it received final action in the
House. 1t read as follows:
Hereafter no part of any appro'
priatiorr for the public schools shall
be available for the payment of the
salary of any person teaching Oh
advocating Communism"
This has been interpreted to NEAR
any discussion of the Soviet Union
There were protests not only
among teachers, but also among the
general public. Members of Con.
gress attacked the red rider" anC
Representative Sisson of New Yorl
early this year introduced a bill
calling for its repeal, but it was de
feated. The N. E. A. in 1885 re
solved "that teachers shall have full
opportunity to present differen
points of view in order to aid stu
dents to adjust themselves to theil
environment and to changing socia
conditions"
