...semi-annual report of the Co-operative Society presented to the Directors at their February meeting a few days ago shows a gain in business, for the first half of the current year amounting to about $15,000.

He was chief counsel for the committee which investigated the Ballinger-Pinchot controversy at Washington, and later was appointed counsel for the shippers in the famous railroad rate cases before the Interstate Commerce Commission. Mr. Brandeis's work as a political reformer and his efforts against various forms of social and political injustice have won wide recognition, and the Committee feels itself especially fortunate in securing him to speak before the University in the series of lectures which...
