Sloan Leads Fight
Against Brain Trust
Omitting the West
(From a Waff Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, Apr! H.-(Speclal Tela
gram.)-An American academy of arts
and letter seems Imminent. While the
boya In "khaki" ara trying .o meet up
with Villa on the aun-parehed plalna of
..Mexico, scant of food and ammunition,
and general conditions netting worse In
Mexico, the house of representatlvea dc
veted WfdneHday to tha dlscuaaloii of a
Mil creating an American academy of
aits and letters. Tha bill cama up again
jasterday and was defeated.
This bill names forty-two Ineorporatori
with William lean llowells, Theodore
ltooHeelt, John Burroughs, Henry Cabot
I,oilne, Horatio William l'arker, Daniel
French, J. F, iSargant and other dis
tinguished men vesting In this dlstln
Hulahed company tho right to fill the
academy to fifty and forever hold It to
that number.
itepieaentatlve Bloan, who fought the
Idea of a close corporation In arts and
letters in the last congress, distinguished
himself today In a speech which breathes
the blancss of the west.
After pointing out the reasonable
niiieinliiieiits tiiat should ba made to a
bill of such sweeping character, Mr.
Sloan said that placing in the hands of a
body of very distinguished men, not only
the power to standardize literary and r
llHtlc achievements and say yea and nuy
to the ambition of all aspirants outside
Hit pale gave jjavn the membership the
poncr to perpetuate itself through com
