...active payroll. The fact, as has been accused, that professors live like nabobs, travel all over the world, and die without leaving a cent should not be invoked to show they could, if more provident, retire in comparative luxury without assistance. If a teacher is to inspire the admiration, respect, and cooperation of his students in this material age, besides fulfill the social obligations of a university community and preserve the external tranquility that precedes mental efficiency, he must hold to a higher standard of living than the day laborer, the artisan, or even the average merchant.

The President had complained of increased crime but had not perceived that the drastic Jones (Five & Ten) Act, by sending up liquor prices and making convictions fewer, would cause the liquor trade to finance the underworld more handsomely than ever...
...protests by Jews and non-Jews . . . Morris Gest carried through his program . . . the story of the Crucifixion which has caused more Jewish agony, persecution and oppression. . . . Were we a devout Christian [and had we seen the Gest production] we could never again look upon a Jew with kindliness and respect; the commandment. 'Love thy neighbor,' would definitely exclude Jews. . . . When two Jews [Morris Gest, David Belasco] indulge in such an obvious commercialization of the Gospel story . . . we must characterize the producers . . . as highly reprehensible from the Christian attitude, and, from the Jewish, as nothing else than contemptible...
