Midwinter Agricultural Meetings.
Arrsngements are now being made for the
annual midwinter meetings of tbe various agri
cultural and allied bodies, tbe sessions to be held
as usual Jn Lincoln. It Is announced that sev
eral speakers of nation-wide prominence are to
attend, among them some from the federal de
terments at Washington. The potential value
of these sessions, if conducted along practical
lines, Is great and though from necessity com
paratively few of the large number Interested
in agriculture, stock raising, horticulture, etc..
can or will participate in the sessions, this by
no means should measure their influence for
good.
The information obtained during meetings is
clssemlnated in various ways until all have at
lesst an opportunity to obtain it and that more
do not utilise the practical things developed 1"
to be deplored. Thinking farmers, however.
realize that no longer can they depend solely
upon personal observation and experience or
the natural fertility of Nebraska's soil to keep
the state to the front agriculturally, for other
fcUtes also have fertile soil, and other farmers
have Individual experiences which are helpful
The day has passed when intelligent men scoff
at the scientific farmer. If these meetings invite
criticism, it is that too many who attend do not
take them seriously and that too few attend.
Majority for Defense Program.
A canvass of tha lower bouse of congress is
na!d to disclose a majority of twenty-nine for the
preparedness program of the president, which it
U conceded will have a majority in the senate.
This must not be taken, however, to assure the
passage of the bill Just as Introduced at the in
stance of the administration, but simply that a
majority of the house members are committed
to a preparedness policy. The details of the
administration plan are too Inchoate so far as
publlo Information goes for unequivocal pledges
if support, and in working it out it is a prac
tical certainty that changes will have to be made
rot only to meet the views of house members,
lut to come within the financial ability of the
government to- carry. Advocates of a larger
standing army will probably demand some con
cessions, friends of the militia organization, who
eppose the continental army idea, will also seek
to obtain a larger recognition for that organiza
tion, and the continental army plan is as yet not
thoroughly digested. Those who oppose In
crease in the military and naval forces alto
gether are not so likely to gain concessions, but
tbe three elements noted must In a measure be
satisfied to hold a majority, and all must bow
to some extent to the financial difficulties ln
vc Ived. The condition of the treasury makes It
imperative that additional military or naval out
lays must be met by new or Increased taxation,
tbe issue of bonds -or a reversal of the entire
fiscal policy of the administration. Tha poll of
the house would indicate, however, that some
Measure of the kind outlined by the president Is
certain to pass at the coming session, but It is
entirely too early to forecast what Its scope and
precise provisions will be.
Amortising: Real Estate Loani. . ' '.
Representatives of a number of the largest
souroes of money loanable on real estate security
nave taken up In a serious way tha Idea of en
forced amortisation, or payment of a portion of
ina principal each year, or loans of that class.
a custom already applied to city real estate and
now proposed for the farm. As a necessary ad
junct, tha plan alms to make the original loans
for longer periods than now, carrying with It
the principle of the building and loan companies
which have proved so great a factor in creating
home owners out of renters in the cities.
An argument advanced in favor of tbe amor
tizing scheme Is. that it would establish at least
a fair substitute for the rural credits system of
Europe. Its greatest benefits in the purview of
Its projectors, however. Is that it would tend to
ereate more real estate Investors and less specu
lative dealing, as it is much easier to make
speculative holdings produce simply the interest
en loans than it Is to produce both Interest and
a payment on the principal.
That the plan proposed offers advantages to
the thrifty renter who wishes to acquire a farm
which can be paid for In small installments Is
evident, but to seek to enforce such conditions
upon all farm loans Is hardly feasible. A little
More than a year ago it was practically impos
sible to obtain money for farm loans, and (t was
even difficult to obtain a renewal of existing
loans. Today In rural communities every loan
agent will tell you that money for farm loans is
plentiful, but that there Is little demand for the
money. Idle funds cannot be held to any such
rule where the security offered is good, but the
general privilege of borrowing money under such
conditions would doubtless prove beneficial to
mtny In the country Just as It has in the city.
Long: Distance Auto Speeders.
A few days ago the newspapers chronicled
the breaking of the time record for an auto trip
between Lincoln and Omaha and now comes
chapter two of the same story the speeders
bsve been fined for exceeding the limit Chapter
two should really be a more valuable lesson than
tbe original Installment of the story. If a knowl
edge of Just how fast an automobile can run on
a public highway and keep up a sustained speed
In any way benefits manufacturers, dealers or
owners of machines It Is not discernible and the
dangers involved are so apparent the practice
should not be encouraged. The chance of
accident to others on the country roads is not
so great as in cities and towns, but speeding
there involves the same element of danger to
those who have an equal right to tbe highway
end people whose business or pleasure takes
them onto public roads have a legal and moral
light to protection. Those who boast of these
remarkable spurts of speed on public highways
should rather be ashamed of the achievement,
and the most charitable comment possible is that
they do not realize fully what they are doing.
It will be recalled that transportation com
panies scooped In several million dollars la ex
cess fares In Missouri through the Instrumen
tality of an injunction granted by Judge Smith
K'cPherson. When the state rates were sus
tained by the highest court a demand was made
for refund of the excess. What did the com
panies do? Why, they gave the victims a life
sise picture of a small boy doing the plccola art
with his right thumb resting on his nose.
Rubber shares are the latest bounders in tbe

Academic Freedom
Dr. irioholsa Hurray Butler.
A NOT Inconsiderable part of the occupations of the
president Is to reply to letters addressed to hlin
In criticism of some reported utterance by a mem
ber of the teaching staff, and In making such reply
to point out what la the precise status and responsi
bility of an academic teacher, and what Is tha uni
versity's share of responsibility for his utterances.
The number of such criticisms made on the part of
the public has notably Increased in recent years, and
during the last year, probably on account of the Euro
pean war, these criticisms have been even more numer
ous than heretofore. In most casea they are baae
on Incorrect or garbled reports of what the person In
question really said. In other oases they reflect merely
narrowness of view and stupidity, or a dealre to use
the university as an agent for some particular propa
ganda, which the critics hold dear. One thing these
criticisms have In common; they almost Invariably
conclude . by demanding the Inatant removal of the
offending professor from the rolls of the university.
' m
During the last year one amiable correspondent
has attacked a university officer under the caption of
a "Snake at Lante.". The fact that the gentleman In
question was not a Snake but a professor and that he
was not at large but In retirement, had no weight In
the eyes of the writer of the letter. It appears that
In this oaae the offense waa the expression In publlo
of a favorable opinion as to the nutritive qualities of
beer. The effect of thla reported utterance on the
mind of the objector was to deprive him of any
modicum of reason that he may have hitherto pos
sessed. He was and still Is very much offended that
the officer In question we not subjected to some pub
llo humiliation and rebuke.
In another case a clergyman wrote to object to the
reported utterances in the class room Incorrectly re
ported. It turned out of a professor who was described
aa endeavoring to destroy whatever of faith in Chris
tianity there was In the members of one of his classes.
This particular complainant did not ask for the dis
missal of the professor In question, but his letter left
no doubt that such action would be entirely accept
able to him.
All this would be amusing were It not sad. It
Illustrates once more how much the public at large
has still to learn as to the significance and purpose
of universities. Tbe notion which Is sedulously culti
vated In some quarters that there are powerful In
terests, financial, economic and social which wish to
curb the proper' freedom of speech of university pro
fessors In America, probably has little or no Justifica
tion anywhere. That there are large elements In the
population which do dealre to curb the proper freedom
of speech of university professors Is, however, Indis
putable. Evidence for thla la to be found not only in
such correspondence as has Just been referred to, but
In letters addressed to the publlo press, and even in
editorial utterances on the part of supposedly repu
table newapapers. The fact is that people generally
have a great deal to learn as to the significance and
functions of a university. The last thing that many
persons want la freedom either of speech or of any
thing else unless Its exercise happens to accord with
their somewhat violent and passionate predilections.
It must be said, on the other hand, that professors of
established reputation, sound Judgment and good sense
rarely If ever find themselves under Sertoli eHttciam
from any source. Such, men and women may hold
what opinions they Bless, alnne tha mr in v.t.
of expressing them with discretion, moderation, good
uuw sou ewq sense, n is me violation of one or
another of these canons which produces the occasional
disturbance that is so widely advertised as aa asser
tion of or attack upon academlo freedom. Genuine
cases of the Invasion of academic freedom are so rare
as to be almost nonexistent. Tt m
whether more than two such eases have occurred In
uie united btatea in the last forty years. It U a mis
nomer to apply the high and splendid term "academlo
freedom' to exhibitions of bad taste and bad man
ners, a university owes It to Itself to defend members
of Its teaching staff from unjust and Improper attacks
maae upon mem, wnen in slnoerely seeking truth
they arrtve at results which are either novel ln them
selves or ln opposition to some prevailing opinion.
Here again the question Is much more largely one of
manner than of matter. The serious, scholarly and
responsible tnvestlgator Js not a demagogue, and dema.
goguea should not be permitted to take his name
In vain. '
A weO-orsantaed group of American youth such aa
Is to be found at any college or university of con
siderable sise offers almost irresistible temptation to
the propagandist It seems to the ardent supporter of
some new movement the most natural thing In the
world that he should be permitted. In season and out
of season, to harangue college and university students
on the subject around which he feels that the whole
world revolvea Any attempt to protect the students
or the reputation of a given college or university for
sobriety and sanity of Judgment Is forthwith attacked
as a movement toward the suppression of free speech.
A portion of the newspaper press and not a few of
their more constant correspondents are aroused to
action, and pretty soon there Is a full-fledged aglta
tlon In progress, directed against those responsible
for the administration and good order of the college
or university In question. In particular, the agitation
ln favor of woman suffrage, and those in favor of
what Is called prohibition or what Is called socialism,
are most active ana determined In seeking to use col
leges and universities as agencies and Instruments of
propaganda. It may properly he pointed out that In
each of these cases, and In others that are similar,
there is not and cannot be Involved any question of
free speech ln the proper sense of that term. There
Is no good reason why the youth who are committed
to the care of a oollege or university should be turned
over by that college or unlveralty to any agitators or
propangandlat who may present themselves. On the
other hand, there la every reason why the college or
university should protect Its students from outside
Influences of this sort. The sound and proper policy
appears to be for a oollege or university to see to it
that Its students receive Information and Instruction
on all of these subjects, and on similar matters
that Interest Urge groups of people, from, Its own re
sponsible officers of Instruction or from scholarly
experts selected by them because of their competence
and good sense.
For many years It has been the rule at Columbia
university, established In 1S31 by President Low. that
any bona fide organisation of atudents interested In a
political or social movement and wishing to organise
a olub or association la aupport thereof might hold
one meeting tor organisation la the university build
ings, but thai, ao far as clubs and associations Inter
ested In political or highly contentious subjects were
concerned, all subsequent meetings must be held out

well for nearly twenty-five years. The university has
been moat hospitable to clubs and organisations of
very sort, provided they were organised In good faith
by duly registered studenta Under the operation of
thla rule, no serious abuaea have arisen and no charge
has been made, or could Justly be made, that freedom
of speech was ln any way Interfered with or limited

CTHADRON, Neb., Nov. To the
Editor of The Bee: Mr. Brsdshsw cer
tainly Is right when he said that the re
cent article written by Mr. Roslcky is too
nonsensical to be debatable.
This Ingersoll proselyte don't like the
Idea of having the Bible In the schools;
thereby he shows that he shya at the
truth. Ingersoll was a great speaker, and
he waa tight on the saloon question and
on politics, but when he spoke on religion
he was all wrong, and his lectures on
religion belong In the sever, the same
as does Mr. Roslcky's writings.
Ingersoll was Uke the foolish man that
built hla house on the sand, while Sunday
la like the wise man that built hla house
on the solid rock. Mr. F. M. Slmonds

In addition we would Uke to further
make plain our position among welfare

primarily for the purpose of studying
tuberculosis problems with the aim In
view of preventing this unnecessary
and costly disease from ever gaining the
foothold In Nebraska which it has other
wheres. The tools which we use are
publicity and education and the actual
relief work which we do Is merely In
cidental for the reason that there are
relief agencies at work such ss Visiting
Nurse aseoclat'on. Free Dispensaries
and a state hospital for tuberculosis.
With all of these we co-operate heartily
while believing that a decided line
should be drawn between our work ami
theirs and not at all desirous of encroach
ing on their legitimate field which Is
relief. Then, too, our funds which
amount to about fAOOO per annum have
never been adequate for relief, and have
therefore been turned toward the cause
