NAVY SELLS NAVY BEANS Dr. Edgar Fnhs Smith, provost of the University of Pennsylvania, today refused to comment on the nsertlon that he was forced to Imrd in lit resignation becanso of the blocking of his plans for state aid for public schools 'and for tho University. I Dr. Llghlncr Wltmer, professor of psychology nt the University. publlKhed .a statement today, in which he ascribed Doctor Hmltirs resignation to this cntise, nnmlng two of the trutccs, George Whnrnton Pepper and Hamilton L. Carson, an "corporation lawyers who rendered tnosc who possess nccuinu- lateu wealth a service when they helped to defeat the provost's proposals." "J Do Not Read Such Things" "I have not rend Doctor Wltmer's stntcment: I do not rend mirh tlilm-a." was the only comment Mr. Pepper wouiu inaKC on me u tuner statement. Horace M. Llpplncott, who accord ing to Doctor Wltmer was the "pro moter of much unwholesome nlninnl sentiment," said that "the majority of the alumni nrc enthuslastlcnllr n fnvnr of Provost Smith's reconstruction pro gram, made public last year, which called for 'training of leadership' rnthev than for the education of the masses." Ho added that "concentration rnthcr than expansion" is needed nnl that it is only right that the state should pay for such public work ns the ineuicnl and dental clinics. Members of tho board of trustees and faculty alike declined to comment in de tail on Doctor Wltmer's stntcment. Doctor Smith is a member of the constitutional revision committee nnd serves on the subcommittee intrusted with educational matters. Dr. Smith's Plans Rejected The two clauses providing state aid for public schools and the University were submitted to the committee by Doctor Smith nnd opposed by Mr. Car son nnd Mr. Pepper. "Within two weeks," says Doctor Wltmer, "Doctor Smith gave his resig nation to the bonrd of trustees." Pre viously. Doctor Wltmer says, the prov ost had been asked to withdraw his clauses. Doctor Wltmer makes tho assertion that a small group of Philadelphia alumni seeTts to dominate the educa tional policy of the institution nnd elect a provost of their own choosing. Madeira Abo Blamed "Of this group George Wharton Pep ner is the intellectual head. Louis C. Madeira their active worker in the bonrd of trustees, and Horace 31. Llp plncott the promoter of much un wholesome alumni sentiment." Doctor Wltmer rnises the question of whether opposition by Mr. Pepper and Mr. Carson to uoctor Htnun s propo sals for state aid "render the greater service to the children of this common wealth or to their clients?'' The point Sauerkraut Also Offered at Stora at Yard Among the food supplies on sale todnv at the Philadelphia Navy Yard retail store are navy beans, in five nnd ten-pound hags, at nine cents n pound; canned pumpkin, nt twenty-nine cents; gallon enns of spinach, nt forty-eight cents; ennned snucrkraut, at eleven cents; potted meats, nt ten cents n can ; sardines, at nine cents n can, and gal lon cans of asparagus, at twenty-nine cents. Ono of the most popular items in the retnll Store is tho npple juice or cider, which sells at fourteen cents a bottle. Several thousand pairs of half boles for men's shoes also were placed on sale today. These half soles sell at fifty-five cents a pair. Is tnnilo by Doctor Wltmer that cor poration lawycrn nrc more apt to serve their clients, the administrators of great wealth, than the public. The suggestion is inauc i"-- i"--' Mr. Pepper hlmscjf will become prov Obt mMii -t.. iinnnp (f elected tirov ost, serve the children of the 'musses. ns some of our alumni cnn "icn'i. ", "" ho servo the children of the privileged clnss of culture, leisure and accumu lated wealth?" . .... ., Doctor Wltmer says that "if the University of Pennsylvania Is support ed by private wealth, private wealth will Hn.Mi iiu ,nitMni mill iriildft its ad ministration." He mentions the Manu facturers' Club and tho union league, "two temples of the private ntcrests, nnd nsks whether "an Insidious Influ ence" emnnntes from them, hinting that this "Influence" operated to make the Board of Education of this city hold down the school tax rate. Hints at Dr. Smith's Successor He Insists that tho choice of a new provost wilt be of momentous conse quence to the University. "Shall It be a practicing attorney, n business man with divided loyalty, or shall It be nn educator, who looks upon tho University ns n public institution In the service of tho children of nil of the people of this commonwealth? "Arc the policies of the Institution to be controlled by n s61f-porpetunting board of trustee representing the I nl vcrslty nnd nt the same time the privi leged class of accumulated wealth) or shall tin' policies and future develop ment of the institntion be directed with wise statesmanship to provide for the cducntlonal development of the future citizens of n democratic American com monwealth?" GOOD BENEFIT CONCERT Conservatory Faculty Plays for Benefit of Osteopathic Hospital Tho Lecfson-Hllte Conservatory of Music gave an interesting concert in Wltherspoon Hnll last evening for tho benefit of the Osteopathic Hospital of Philadelphia before an nudlcnce thnt comfortably filled the hall. It was given by Miss Dorothen Neebe nnd Miss Evelvn Tvson. two of the? best of the younger pianists of Philadelphia and both winners of distinguished honors for playing. They were assisted by Miss Vivienne Cordc.ro, violin, and Johnn van Hulstcyn, violin instructor at the institution, who played viola. Misses Neebe nnd Tyson appeared in several compositions for two pinnos, among them being the "Dnnse Mncabrc" of Saitt-Saens, Arensky's suite op. 15, Chabricr'H "Esnana." the scherzo from .Mendelssohn's "Midsummer Night's Dream" and JjUUow'r "Mini Hunt," by Wcbcr, transcribed for two pinnos by Ferdinand Hlller. The young pianists played without notes, as is their custom, and again revealed a pre cision nnd n unity of style In playing that is remarkable, as well as n fine quality of tone and excellent taste. Many of tho numbers were encored. Miss Cordcro is n highly talented vio linist and played with much grace, nn ample technique nnd good tone. In the first number in which she appeared Mr. vnn Hulsteyn played viola nnd with Miss Audrey 'Cordcro they gnvc- the sonata for violin, viola nnd piano by Leclair, a fine work, old in style of composition, but of great beauty of melody nnd of considerably more senti ment than most works of that day. Later Miss Cordcro appeared to as good and nt time to even better advantage in the A minor concerto of Vivaldi, the slow movement from tho fourth con certo of Vieuxtcmps nnd the Hungarian dance in G minor of Brnhams, tran scribed for violin by Joachim. 250 CITY WORKERS FACE LOSS OF JOBS Charges Pushed Against Em ployes Who Wero Active at Polls in Behalf of Varos ONE DISMISSED BY TUSTIN ployes of Director Winston'H department iinve been- dlsmUsed.
