The poll on this query is being run for the purpose of determining whether the University's sentiments have changed since the CRIMSON-Literary Digest poll last spring. In the latter, Harvard expressed its approval of President Roosevelt's aims by a vote of 1,011 to 1,024.

The result of the present method of disbursements has been that a large number of Harvard Club Scholarship recipients have been forced to leave college either because of shortage of funds or because the extra burden of earning the remaining part of their expenses has compelled them to neglect academic work...
