THE WORLD REVIEW


4 CORRESPONDENT writes
me calling my attention 10
a recent symposium Of state
governors. professors Of political
science, and others, the ques-
ton whether voting machinery
for those in the armed services
should be created by the fed
eral government or by the in
dlvldual states.
lie calls my attention TO the
fact n the professors of
political science agree with the
President. that the federal gov
eminent should control this
ballot, and that-one of them,
professor Of Princeton Univer-
-sity considers that state control
would be gigantic fraud
And my correspondent asks me
why professors Of political SCI
ence should express views that
are contrary 10 our constitu-
tional law.
NOW this pertinent inquiry
~ comes pretty close home to
me and il fills me with a meas
ure Of chagrin, for / have been
a professor Of political science
for more than 30 years.
have An answer, however. to
this puzzling question, and il is
the only answer that l can give.
II is, that few of our active
professors of political science in
this country. at this time. have
been grounded in the field of
public law. Many have no train
ing, worthy Of the name. in con-
stitutional law or administrative
law or international law.
They omitted these somewhat
severe disciplines from their
courses Of study preparatory to
becoming professors OF political
science.
THIS idea that one can be a
Il professor of this subject or
a teacher of American govern
ment and politics without know
ing the constitutional law of the
United States. has gained wide
currency in our universities.
The subject appeared TO these
young men difficult. and doubt
less dry, and so they "detoured
around it, and arrived at their

the heart of the Baruch philoso-
