President Is Proud
! "One who possesses even a general
familiarity with the contributions of
Princeton to the establishment, the
fortification and the sturdy" upholding
of our national institutions, must sure
ly ne pardoned a full measure of pride
In being chosen to receive the distinc
tion you today are conferring upon me,
Standing here, before tho background
of thoHO noble traditions and eminent
accomplishments in which beats the
heart and lives the soul of the univer
sity, one cannot but feel that to have
deserved this one ought to have served
well indeed. If there be misgiving as
to the merit of service in the past
surely this distinction must inspire its
recipient to redoubled effort to prove
forthy of It. For me the real picture
of Princeton of those revolutionary
days is tho ono that conjures Itself
around the figure of old John Wither
spoon, stout Scotch Presly iuiiun di
vine, scholar, teacher, author, preach
er, prosidcHt of Princeton, rebel by na
ture, patriot by choice, member of the
congress, signer of the declaration and
unrelenting fighter in the cause of
independence. Under such leadership,
small wonder that Princeton played a
great and gallant part, producing
young men who were equally resource-
ful and uncompromising In field or
forum, and that the advanced place
which they claimed for Princeton in
patriotic service has been returned
through all the generations since.
Princeton U, 8. Louvaln
"The name of Princeton university,
I well know, is rich In association and
fine tradition to all Its sons. Yet I con
fess I have alwayB to think of it also
by its earlier title of College of New
Jersey, first of that long list of the
stato colleges and universities which
gave so much of special character and
quality to collogiate institutions In this
country. If one may think of New
Jersey ns central battleground of our
revolution, the Belgium of oui struggle
for 'independence, so also may one pic
ture the Princeton of that time as the
Louvaln among the rising universities
of the colonial eitoch.
"WIbo men always have beon wont
to illumlno-the paths of the future with
the beacons of oxiierlenco shining from
put the past. So it Is good that men
who have bocn called to the resimnsi
blllties of large affairs, should come
now and then to these academic pre
cincts to refresh the spirits, to take on
for a little time the hues of your atmo
sphere, tho cast of your thought, the
Inquiring quality of your mind and the
calm deliberation of your Judgements.
In tho rich and fruitful Intellectual
soli of our universities wo may trace
tho gormlnntlon of ideas, systems, in
stitutions which have been greatly re
sensible, advancement of human
kind; and to our universities we must
turn, lit hope and trust that they will
give to the future men of the discipline
tho unselfishness, the straight vision
and clear understanding, needful in
coping with tho complex problems
which that future surely holds for
them.
Colleges In Early Days
"I remember reading somewhere in
the letters of a distinguished British
public man who was in touch with
American sentiment during the revolu
tion wonderfully naive' compliment,
that the Insurgency might have been
suppressed readily enough by rigorous
measures, but for the malevolent Influ
ence of the ardent young whigs who
made up almost the entire student
bodies of the colleges. ,
"The collegos of that ' early time
were' already headquarters and dispen
saries of patriotic enthusiasm and thew
have remained Bitch. They have sent
out their sons by tho thousands, to
perform tho most responsible duties in
all the wars of the republic; and uni
formly it has been marked by a zeal
which carried inspiration to the whole
community. Yet more important per
haps has been their part in the direc
tion of civic interests; inthe construc
tive tasks of the state, In building the
commerce and industry, developing the
culture and framing the public institu
tions of our country. So on such an
occasion as this I can think of no more
appropriate message to be addressed
to the Princeton community, thnn on
expression of the earnest hope that it
may live up to its opportunities and
obligations in the future as patrlotical-
lly as it, has done in the past.
Had T joined tho order, I would have
left it and written about it tho same
iiH I am dointf now. Howevey, when
tlu-lr threatened exioHUl- of their
documents has been matin I presume
the courts are still willing to order
their books and papers into court, so
that the public will havo a chance to
determine the whole truth about this
mysterious order and how it works.
I might say that I wrote tho first
article ubo'ut tho klan in the middle
of March, six weeks before they de
cided 1 was not wanted as a mem
ber. I welcoife the promised attack and
think it may bo the means of bring
ing real peace to this much harassed
community. .

The whole episode being, as can be
plnlnly seen, an attempt to frnmo up
defense for what 1 had said and

I wrote a word. I knew I would have,

But I thought tho public might be

Favors Ford Offer
Representative Wright points out in
his minority report that the question
of disposing of the vast properties at
Muscle Shoals, "is fraught with far
reaching and momentous results, and
Is one of the greatest which has ever
engaged the attention of congress." ,
"The acceptance of the Ford of
fer," he says, "would bo a disposition
of this property resulting in greot ad
vantages to the government and our
people. The carrying out of the Ford
offer would mean the production of
almost ' 1,000,000 hydro-electric
horsepower; the manufacture an
nually for 100 years of nitrogen and
other commercial fertilizers; the
maintenance of nitrate plant No. 2
for 100 years in. Us' prosenf state of
readiness, or its equivalent to be turn
ed over to the government for imme
diate operation in time of war for
the production of explosives; In mak
ing navigable the Tennessee rivet a
distance of approximately ninety
miles through a section abounding in
tho richest and moBt material re
sources such as many billion tons of
coal and iron, almost inexhaustible
quantities of timber, phosphate rock,
aluminum, zinc and other materials,
and thus bring these necessary ma
terials by water transportation within
easy access to the Industrial centers
of the world."
The Georgia representative calls
attention to the-contracts made by
the war department with the Ala
bama Power company which purport
ed to give that concern an option to
purchase the government's Interest
in the tiorgas power company and
makes reference to the opinions of
Attorney General Daugherty and the
acting judge advocate general of the
army, pronouncing the contract inval
id and unenforceable. '
Company Not Sincere ,
"We are unalterably in favor of
tho government standing by its con
tracts," the report says, "but It would
seem tho one In question here has
neither the elements of law on moral
ity and therefore no standing.
"The hlstmy of the conduct of the
company and the peculiar language
employed In a communication from
the prosident of the company to the
chairman of the military committee
advising that the offer of $2,500,000
for the Gorgas plant had beon sub
mitted leads us to wonder if the com
pany -ia now really sincere in its al
leged offer and If it would actually
pay the government-$2,500,000 for
the Interest of tho government In the
Gorgas steam plant. '
"Mr. Ford contends," the report
adds, "that It Is necessary to the
economical operation of Muscle
Shoals for htm to have the Gorgas
plant.
"If his revlsod offer for Gorgas is
rejected then he must understand
the acceptance of his offer for Muscle
Shoals as a whole and not in part, is
rejected." , , '
'.'As we see it," the report con
cludes, "a vote for the McKenzIe bill
without an amendment to Include
Gorgas means the rejection of the
Ford offer.'.'
Ford 1'lan Opposed
Representatives Parker and Froth
ingham find fault with the Ford of
fer in their report, declaring that
$5,000,000 ho offers for the nitrate
plants, the Waco quarry.'the Gorgas
steam plant railroad and transmission
line, is grossly Inadequate."
' Mr. Ford pays no Interest in the
$16,000,000 already spent by the
government on the Wilson dam, the
report sayB, and does not propose to
pay interest on 'what the United
States is to spond upon the comple
tion of that project until six years af
ter the dam Is in operation: In that
time the government will pay oui $7,-
500,000 and it will receive back from
Mr. Ford only $1,200,000 says the
report. 1 .
"The whole proposition, "the docu
ment continues, "Is a departure from
the policy of our water power pro
gram. The fertilizer agreement made by
Mr. Ford,. the report concludes, "Is a
good and proper thing. But whether
or not the, company can make fertil
izer, at- half price or make It as a
profit at all Mr. Ford's representa
tive states distinctly that the com
pany will not make it unless It can
do so at a profit the turnover profit
Ik fixed at 8 per cent and this fer-
tilizer question Is the bargain coun
ter In this proposal."
Representative Wurzbach, republi
can. Texas, today telegraphed Repre
sentative WriKht, authorizing that his
name be added to the signatures of
