I should like to have it known that the concensus of opinion is that action on this matter should be deferred until after the close of the war, at which time it will be eminently proper for the University or the alumni, and perhaps for the individual classes, to create a permanent memorial to the Harvard men who have met their death fighting for whichever cause they believed to be the right one in this great struggle.
