Regulation of the trusts is the second method and this Professor Durand compared with what, to him, is the only safe policy, prohibition. The term "regulation" means price regulation.

With the subsidence of the agitation for "credits toward a degree for managers of athletic teams," comes another still more startling--rolling onwards like a veritable billow of materialism to engulf the helpless philanthropist shivering on the brink. In short, "students are trying with good prospects of success to have the faculty recognize the philanthropic work done by students in and about Boston as credit toward the college degree. Several hundred men are engaged each year, under...
