(Continued From Tag One.)
always thought that the' chief object
. of ': education, was to awaken the
spirit and that, inasmuch as a lit
efjitflce whenever it has touched its
great and higher notes was an ex-
" pression of the spirit of mankind,
the best induction into education
" 'was to feel the pulses of humanity
which had beaten from age to age
through the universities of men who
had -penetrated to the secrets of
the human spirit.
War Between Systems. j
"And I agree with the intimation
' whic'i has been conferred .. today
that the terrible war through which
we have just passed has not been
only a war between nations, but
that it has also been a war between
systems of culture the one system,
the aggressive system, using science
without conscience, stripping learn-
' ing of its moral restraints and using
every faculty of the human mind to
do wrong to the whole race; the
other system reminiscent '; of ' the
high tradition of. men, reminiscent
of all their struggles, some of them
obscure, but others closely re
, vcaled to history, of men of in
domitable spirit. everywhere strug-
'., gling towards the right and seeking
bbve all things else to be free.
- "The triumph of freedom in this
war means that that spirit shall
now dominate the world. There is
; a great wave of moral force mov
ing through the world, and every
r man who opposes himself to that
" wave will go down in disgrace.
Conference Task Simplified.
"The task of those who are gath
ered here, or will presently be gath
ered here to make the settlements
of this peace, is greatly simplified by
the fact that they are the masters
of no one; they are the servants of
' mankind. And if we do not heed
the mandates of mankind we sfiall
make ourselves the' most" cofispicu
oue and deserved failures in the his
tory of the world. ''
"My conception of the league of
nations is just this that it shall
; operate aa the organized moral force
of men throughout the world and
that whenever or wherever wrong
and aggression are planned or con
templated this searching light of
;onscience will be turned upon
them, and men everywhere will ask:
..." 'What are the purposes that you
.' hold in your heart against the for-
' tunes of the world?'
, "Just a little exposure will settle
" most questions. If thewntral pow
ers had dared to discuss the pur
poses of this war for a single fortnight-it
. never would have hap
pened. And if, as should re, they
' were forced to discuss it for a year,
the war would have been inconceiv
able, r - ' ' .
. ; "So I feel that this war is, as has
been said more than once today, in
timately related with the university
spirit. The university spirit is in
tolerant of all the things that put
the human mind under restraint. It
is intolerant of everything that
seek- to retard the advancement of
ideals, the acceptance of the truth,
the purification of life. And every
university man can ally himself
with the forces of the present time
with the feeling that now at last the
spirit of truth, the spirit to which
universities have devoted them
selves, has prevailed and is tri
umphant. "If there is one point of pride
that I venture to entertain, it is
that it has been my private privilege
in some measure to interpret the
university spirit in the public life
of a great nation, and I feel that in
honoria me today in this unusual
and conspicuous manner you have
first of all honored the people whom
I represent. The spirit that I try
to express I know to be their spirit,
and in proportion as I serve them I
believed that I advance the cause of
freedom.
"I wish to thank you, sir, from the
bottom of my heart for a distinction
which has in a singular way crowned
rqy academic career."
Tribute Paid to Amarica.
In presenting to President Wilson
the insignia and diploma of doctor
in the name of the University of
Paris Vice Rector Lucien Poincare
said:
"History will recout how. taking
inspiration from the American peo
ple and your own thoughts, you
reached one gloriojs day the de
cision which is one of the greatest
events recorded in the war and in
your own words, placed the blood
and all the power of America at
the serivce of the principles which
have given her life. History will
also tell how you have sought to
realize the imperishable supremacy
of right by means of an association
of peoples which should liberate the
world."
M. Poincare paid honor to Amer
ican university professors for the
unfailing sympathy they have shown
for France and also to the American
students who in such great num
bers came to fight beside their
French student comrades.
"Many, alas", M. Poincare con
tinued, " will not return to their
beloved country, for Ihey have fal
len in France, where we trust thev
fert they were not on foreign soil
and where they have left to the
youth of the two republics an im
mortal example of fraternal union.
Glory to these American students.
"Glory to the eminent professors
of their universities, and glory to
you, Mr. President the first among
them all."

SENATORS MIX
IN DEBATE ON
REVENUES
(Continued from Face One.
mons and Sena'or Smith of Georgia,
defended the democratic policy.
Charges by the republicans that in
so doing, political advantage was
sought with a view to avoiding an
extra session of the next congress,
in which republicans will have a ma
jority were met by assertions from
the democrats that republicans de
sired to force an extra session.
A suggestion by Senator Borah of
Idaho, republican, that there was
"some mystery" about changed at
titude of republicans on the bill
caused evident surprise among both
factions. After the finance commit
tee had adopted the 1920 plan. Sen
ator Borah said republican leaders
threatened to filibuster and prevent
the bilUs passage. Soon after, he
added, they "suddenly changed
front," and proposed prompt enact
ment. Senator Ftrnrosj replied that he
thought many republicans were dis
posed to defeat the bill, but finally
agreed that as the government
needed the money its prompt pass
age was desirable.
During the debate there were pre
dictions that an extra session of
congress was inevitable.
In supporting his amendment for
continuing of war profits taxes next
year, Senator Jones declared that
the committee's proposal, if finally
enacted, would be an "absolute em
bargo, on new enterprises," and pre
vent the development of the coun
try at the very time when business
should be most encouraged. He did
not believe a dollar would be in
vested in the western mining indus
try if the committee provision was
adopted. In opposing the amend
rrtnt Senator bimmons said it had
been presented before the commit
tee by the New Mexico senator and
atter much discussion rejected.
Those supporting the Jones
amendment were Senators Ashurst,
Fletcher, Henderson, Johnson of
North Dakota; Jones, New Mexico,
Kendrick, King, Myers, Phelan,
Pittman, Shafroth, Sheppard and
Tl.omas, democrats, and Johnson if
California, and McNary, republicans.
