...beneath the elms. The college secretary has permitted a public statement that the college officers fear that returning graduates will drink, unlawfully and riotously. An official college paper tells us also that the college authorities wish the visiting graduates to refrain, in New Haven, from any public or private breach of the law.

...Columbia judge, last week, released the five dominant meat-packing concerns from their forced vow to divest themselves of and "forever disassociate" themselves from subsidiary lines of business. Had they not taken this vow in 1920, the then Attorney General, A. Mitchell Palmer, would probably have sued them for breach of the trust laws.
