fWi.tntlon. it was pointed out that Clemen-
& "$ ceU would use this to help himself In
5r
the French political situation the same
way that Lloyd George has used the
fact of America's entrance into Kuro
pean affairs to silence criticism of him
etf at home.
Lloyd Geqrce's speech ias virtually
an attack on Lord NorthclifTe as n per
son who would sacrifice the future of
BritUh'Amerlcan relations for personal
political gain. Lloyd George turned the
summoning of tho George Washington
to Brest to hii own political ndvantage
at home just ns he turned criticism by
Northcllffe and other conservatives to
his own advantage at Paris.
Apparently the Lloyd George and
Olemenceau governments are safe until
the peace treaty is made, after which
purely domestic issues are likely to di
vide the two countries into new align
ments. The attack on Cleraenceau is proceed
ing day after day on the basis that
ho failed to get the utmost damages
from Germany.

l'olloulng upon the declaration of
peace, the present intention of the peace
delegates is to havo the covenant of the

subject treated in detail. It will thus
take the priority it had in the program
of the Peace Coufercuce.

Continued from Pate One
this time. We will wait and see whnt
effect the statement hns before any
thing further is given out for publica
tion." Mr. Morris is out of the city.
At the office of Charles Custis Hnr
lison. n Unicrity trustee, it was
stated thut:
"Mr. Hnrrison has nothing to s-ay
lrgarding the Morris matter and refers
j ou to Trovost Smith or to some other
trustee. He is an inactive member of
thebonrd." Mr Harrison was formeily
proost of the I'nhersitj.
These Arc Allegations
The chief allegations in the Morris
statement follow:
The Vnlversitj . being n semi-public
corporation retching state aid, should
be open in its acts, but is operated like
a "trust-controlled railroad."
It holds its "worthy professors" at
starvation wages and overpays a dean
from Must funds which it has no right
to nssign
Most of its trustees are silent forces
that work in the dark nt monopoly nnd
high finance, who desire to limit rclicfn
tion to whnt will least hinder the con
tinuance of their power and profit.
The main occupation of Dean Mc-
Clellan is not to teach, hut to "sit on
the lid."
When apprised of the Morris charges
B. T. Stotesbury, u trustee, said:
"This is the first 1 hao heard of
such a matter. I do not cure to discuss
Mr, Morris's statement at this time."
Bflingham B. Morris, another of the
influeutial trustees, heard n sjnopsis of
the statement oer tho telephone nt his
Bristol farm, but refused any comment.
"I do not care to make am comment
at this time," he said, "a I feel that
such a matter Is not ono for discussion
ocr a telephone."
