...been playing right half, was injured this week in a scrimmage with the Freshman, while Gordon, another backfield player, suffered a broken leg while crossing the goal line for the only University score of the scrimmage. This leaves Princeton with a dearth of seasoned backfield men, which should react to Chicago's advantage, as it is expected that Coach Stagg will depend to a large extent upon forward passes and shift plays with end runs for the Maroon offensive, plays that put the greatest strain on the defensive backfield...

...think, however, that I can point out how the new extra course charge is especially unfair to the man contemplating a professional carrer, particularly in medicine, and how it will react on men entering that study from Harvard College. It is possible now to go to Medical School with two years premedical work offered as preparation, but the majority of the men at Harvard who plan to study medicine try to get their degree in three years, and enter with the advantage of the degree and the extra studies that go with it. A large number of these...

...action of the new administration with regard to internal revenue, and tariff, will also have a material effect on business conditions. If a high protective tariff is adopted, it may stimulate business temporarily, but in the long run it will react unfavorably.

These union grafters, with their $10,000 salaries apparently added to by heavy bribes extorted from the contractors and corporations, have supplied the real sensation of the building trades investigation. Against such a system of blackmail as that which they put in force, the "hated capitalist" was bound to react. He reacted too far in seeking to prescribe union labor by the means of combination. But his error and offence in that respect should not throw the Lockwood investigation--or the Congressional--inquiry which is to follow--off the scent of the real and capital offence, which is the corruption...

Your convictions are not without an answer here in America. Few Americans were on the front long enough to react after this ironical year of "Peace" to the smells and sounds of your words, without which we cannot grasp your great or caustic truths. We are dangerously equipped to inform those who follow us, and we look to you and others, as Barbusse, to aid us. That which was enabled to bring back with me from a few months of war's reality was founded on my vivid associations at your Fifth Army school during that army's Paschendaele attack...
