Government Seeking
Control OF Education
Privately Operated Colleges Must Be on Alert, De-
cIares President Of NIIanova College in Address

Very Rev. Edward v. Stanford,
president Of VilIanova college and
Of the American Association Of Coli
leges, told Waterbury alumni Of
Villanova last night that unless the
legion Of friends Of privately con-
trolIed colleges are on the alert,"
private colleges may be put out Of
existence "by the noticeable trend
toward government control In high-
er education"
{ Father Stanford, whose topic was
college Education and the Crisis in
Democracy" was the guest of honor
at q testimonial dinner sponsored
by the Waterbury alumni at the
Hotel Elton. Other speakers were
Mayor Vincent A. Scully, Rev. Fran
els M. O'Shea, permanent rector Of
the Immaculate Conception church,
and Rev. DR.. Andrew Plunkett,
pastor Of st. Mary's church, Derby,
state chaplain Of the Knights Of
Columbus, and president Of the
state Villanova alumni association.
Rev. Bartholomew SkeIly, of Hart
ford, was POSTMASTER.
Subsidized Education
Supporters Of privately controlled
colleges must be especially on the
alert against the inroadS Of gov
eminent subsidized education today
because Of the "hysteria attendant
on q vast program Of national de-
tense, with new policy Of con-
scripting nanpower," Father SAM
ford declared.
I'm days gone BY" the speaker
said, I'VE were concerned about
making the world safe for. democ-
racy, although we now know that
there Is no such thing as making
the world safe for democracy. The
real problem is to make democracy
safe for the world. Democracy
is government by the peope, and
by the terms Of this proposition it
can be no better than the people
themselves. In a democracy, there
fore, education is never q dis
pensable luxury, and consequently,
even in a period Of national crisis
1t is important to maintain effec-
tive education on all levels from
kindergarten to university"
'sThe position Of the educator is
very similar to that Of the busi-
ness man, the industrialist the
banker, the statesman. In every case
the same problem has to be con-
fronted namely, the freedom Of pri-
vate enterprise and the persevering
Of q proper balance between pri-
vate enterprise and governmental
regulation. In brief, 1t is the dam
ger of drifting from a democratic
way Of life into q totalitarian way
Of life"
Father Stanford reviewed the his
tory of private education In this
country, declaring that when tax
supported institutions came into
being, competition arose, with state
schools enjoying increasing advan-
tages through new taxes designed
for their improvement.
Liberal Program
The educator scored what he
termed the indiscriminate pouring

WILLKIE TESTS
FARM REACTION
Ends Tour Of Prairie
States Tonight; Adopts
New Deal Policies
BY WILLIAM B. LAWRENCE

BY WILLIAM H. LAWRENCE
United Press Stan Corresponaentl
Aboard Willkie train en- route to
Madison, Wis, Sept. 27-(UPl-Re
publican presidential nominee Wen
dell L. Willkie crossed the prairies,
of Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin to-
day, testing farmer reaction to his
agricultural program.
His initial western tour Of more
than 1900 miles ends tonight with
speech at Madison, Wis. His special
train then heads east, via Chicago,
to New York for an address before
the New York Satte Republican
convention at White Plains tomor-
row night.
Today he makes brief speeches in
Fort Dodge, Ia, Webster City,, Ia,
Iowa Falls, Ia, Waterloo, Ia. Inde-
pendence Ia. Dubuque Ia, and
Freeport, Ill.
In Lis first agricultural address,
at Omaha, Nebr., last night, Will
kie revealed that he had adopted
most 70 the present New Deal farm
policies. He promised industrial re-
covery which would increase agri-
cultural pricse.
For farm business recovery, Will
kie declared, it was necessary for
farm" factory, labor and consumer
to tackle the job, at long last, of
ending economic Stagnation and pre-
venting q common disaster" he
promised to call a national economic
conference, If elected.
He pledged to continue and in-
prove the soil conservation program;
to continue commodity loans; to
enlarge the present rural electrifi-
cation system; to develop an ade-
quate farm credit system with low
interest rates, administered inde-
pendent of politics or regular gov
eminent departments; to give "spe-
cial treatment" to exportable sur
pluseS- such as wheat adm cotton.
Having concluded his prepared
address, Willkie said:
away with those who preach
disunity and class discord. American
Democracy Is at the testing point.
Surely we Americans will not be dis
united now.
"This is the last untouched land
Of freedom. ! say it to you calmly,
say 1t to you deliberately, and not
In the heat Of political campaign,
that II we continue to go down the
road of enormous fiscal deficits, OF
long-continued depression and If we
also adopt the fantastic notion OF
the indispensable man, this great
democracy Of ours, In such event,
will pass"
He adopted the agricultural objec-
tives and present farm program ma
chinery Of the New Deal until better
methods are evolved, but he sharply
criticized the results of the New
Deals efforts to expand domestic
and foreign farm markets.
