vim. university president, score the
"buffoonery of forecasting polls" and
advise graduates to think for them
selves"
DR.. Marvin's charge came after
he had conferred degrees on large

ANY system of ideals or social
method which creates dependency
in the minds Of our people is a
betrayer of the essence Of our demo-
cratic form of government" the
university president declared.
Mind of Man Sacred"
THE buffoonery of forecasting
polls, the mummery of digested
writings and best-seller lists, the
comedy of dependence upon con-
cordant organizations should make
us hesitate, smile bit shametaced-
ly, recall that men and women
should think for themselves and
recant-for democracy holds the
mind of man sacred"
. DR.. Marvin asserted that I'VE want
the information of the experts, the
officials or the writers not to turn
us into gibbering parrots but to
give us facts and methods, which
will help us truly build our real
places in our community" He
added: =,
Then, and only then, we shall
be able to renovate life and remold
our social state to the hearts de-
sire"
The Rev. Frederick Brown Harris,

Stocks Edge Higher
As Traders Ponder
Truman Program
BY the Assoeiated Press

NEW YORK, July 27.-Stock
market prices leaned a little higher
today while the market studied
President Truman's proposals to a
special session of the Congress.
Business was virtually at stand
still time and again and at about
the same rate as yesterdays session,
which was the slowest in some
four months.
Wall Street was pretty well aware
of what the President would recon-
mend. The markets reaction was
lust about what many expected
the Congress to do-nothing.
A feature of trading was a runup
of more than 9 points for Wright
Aeronautical Corp, which is wholly
controlled by Curtiss- Wright. The
jump followed release of news that
directors had voted two dividends
of IS each, which compared with
the previous and only payment of
SIS share in December, 1947.
Higher by fractions to a point or
so were Bethlehem Steel. Stude-
baker, American Telephone, Ameri-
can Can, Dow Clinical, du Pont,
Philip Morris, Santa Fe, Baltimore
& Ohio, Union Pacific and Eastman
Kodak
A little on the losing side were
Goodrich Tire. Sears-Roebuck, In
ternational Harvester, United Air
craft, j. c. Penney, Southern Rail-
way and Eastern Airlines.
Railway bonds were trimmed while
United States Government issues
held steady in the over-the-counter
market.
Higher in the Curb were Humble
Oil, South Penn Oil, Glen Alden
Coal and Niagara Hudson Power
