It was an outrageous and a cruel thing, even by innuendo, to charge against a man whose patriotic and unselfish pervice had been so brilliantly performed, an offense so particularly grave and contemptible la war-tim- e as conversion of public funds to personal use. And while the committee investigating the shipping board could not very well refuse to listen to evidence which implied a gross reflection upon the sometime bead of that board, it is only fair to the committee to say that it never believed the charges, and it has now hastened to put this dibelief into formal terms, by d'flaring the charge not only "not proven" but not true.

At first blush; this assertion seems paradoxical, but study of it reveals that it is founded on fact.

Any man wilit a university education but with no plaee where he can npply his exceptional training is a hopeless individual. To be unskilled and unemployed is bad enough, but to be skilled and outof a job is worse. And inrtitably many of these thousands of cultural students will be jobless when they leave their university balls. German leaders are spid to be considerably worried over the situation. They realize that for awhile at least their countrymen should turn their attention and effort toward the basie industries. It is not to be doubted that higher learning in thwarts and sciences will continue lo be fostered in Germany, but just now there is need of other and more important work.
