By EDWARD MARSHALL
NEW YORK. — Anti-Jewish discriminations have advocated or
charged in two American universities; protects against the methods
of endeavoring to enforce prohobition and indeed against the constitu-
tional amendment, itself, are heard frequently in important circles
which are not politically partisan, while the lawlessness of the rum-
'runners, obviously often connived at by tboae who ordinarily are act
law-breakers, has become a national scandal; the Ku Klux Klan, al-
though it is charged with crimes not stopping short of murder, still
finds supporters, holds public meetings and raises funds. - -
" What do these things mean to the mental and spiritual develop-
msnt of the United States, this great and hopeful nation, which re-
gards itself as so successful an experiment in democracy?
Inasmuch as the universities must •
be accepted as centers of thought-

"On the frontier, in the olden days,
were all sorts and conditions of
men, conceptions and beliefs, and
were given fair play if only those
who hold them respected the fun-
dameutaL. laws on which the social
order rested. — --
But throughout our national his-
tory instances of intolerance have
been many. One very dangerous
manifestation of intolerance grew
up some eighty years ago when the
Know Nothing Party endeavored to
make itself a factor in American
political' life.: 7
This party which grew rapidly.
Involving many citizens of position
and importance, becoming I some-
thing of a 'power and for a time
threatening to be a serious menace
to the ultimate welfainor the re-
public, gave evidence of the effect
of two of the most important sour-
ces Of intolerance, (viz., religious
antagonism and racial prejudice.
Attempts at Religious Persecution
"This party was organised for the
very purpose of making a drive
against such as held allegiance to
the Roman Catholic Church and
faith, although its founders and fol-
lowers were citizens of a country

emphatic in its advocacy of a re-
ligious freedom resting on ths firm
foundations of the nation's funda-
mental law: snd if manifested a
bitter racial antagonism In a coun-
try which, then at any rate, opened
wide its doors to all corners and
offered to each of them citizenship
vp equal terms. _
“Of course thle political party
died in the course of time, having
accomplished actually, and fortun-
atel) none of the ends which it
hod announced as the object of its
being. ' - 1
“But that it existed at all, gained
any power, whatever (and for a
. its iPHence waa ETeat) in •
nation of ideals such as we had
announced on every occasion, was
significant of something contradie-
tory. In the make-up of our mind
and temperament.
“Today, well on Into the Twentieth
century, these two American, un-
Christian and uncivilled sources of
intolerance are again at work and
with redoubled energy.
“The Ku Klux Klan, with its
childish and preposterous ritual and
nomenclature, will be billed by rid-
icule which Its very existence in-
vltes. With regard te it we need
waete little time In argument.
"But far subtler, often invisible
snd more dangerous influences are
at work in American communities
to spread religious animosities and
race antagonism.
“The notion tkat the American
Roman Catholic cannot be and is not
as good a citizen aa the American
Presbyterian, the American Baptist,
the American Methodist or the
American Unitarian because he owes
mysterious allegiance to a ‘foreign
potentate,’ is the most utter bosh;
thst Americans will listen to It
snd devote any time to thinking of
it, is the sign of a diseased men-
tality.
“Let anyone name better Amer-"
lean citizens than the late Cardinal
Gibbons of Baltimore, the late Arch-
bishop of Ireland, of St. Paul, or the
late Bishop Spaulding, of- Peoria.
"The United States will not ho
true to itself nor even measurably
achieve its ideals, until this relig-
ious antagonism is brought to an
end.
"The only way by which it can be
ended Is through the energetic sc-
tion of an enlightened and aroused
public opinion.
Meanness of Race Antagonism
“Similar Intolerance on race an-
tagonism is mean, un-Christian and
Immoral.
"That there are real differences
between the various races into which
humanity is divided, ell of us ex-
cept certain anthropologists — well
understand, admit and appreciate.
‘These differences, however, offer
no just grounds for intolerance,
proscription or hatred.
“Throughout our history we find
episodes (indicating that such ha-
treds have sprung up from time to
time that often they have caused in-
calculable misery and oorrow. There
is no record of a single occasion in
which civilization has been advanced
because of any of their operations.
“Just now It is the Jew who, in
the United States, is bearing the
brunt of antagonism based us on
race mlatred.
“To endeavor to determine the ex-

Only public opinion, a genuine ---— ----------1" bbvibw OF WEIN’
conviction on the part of the vaat
majority, can bring manifestations
of intolerance, to an end in this or
any other country.
“The public opinion that ie capable
of doing this, and indeed, that ie
sure to do II. can be the product only
of enlightenment. A spirit of gen-
erous human fooling is the founda-
tion upon which it must be built.
Oppose Search For Truth
This is by no means universal in
America. Many of our citizens, and
some who are in high positions of
power and influence, social, econom-
ie and political, constantly prove
themselves to be unwilling to bear
patiently any statement which con-
flicts with their prejudices, their
prepossessions or their illusions.
“When the truth is told to such
people the effect is, first, to mystify,
second to irritate aad third to In-
furlate.
“There are even those who would
stop entirely the search for truth
aad all that free discussion which
is essential if the search for truth
is to be effectively carried forward.
Among those may sometimes be
found men In positions of power
or women who are influential.
"Of course I should be the last to
deny that anyone has either a civil
or a moral right to use a privileged
position which he or she may hap-
pen for the moment to occupy, for
an openly destructive or inmoral
purpose, but while It should not be
true, it nevertheless is the fact that
charges of inmorality and destruch
tiveness of purpose are frequently
brought without just grounds.
“The burden of proof should al-
ways be, therefore, on those who,
would restrain the individual who la
endeavoring to stimulate, or claim-
ing to be endeavoring to stimulate,
breadth of view and mental pro-
gress.
"In this nation above all, toler-
ance, liberalism and the spirit of
freedom demand thst such a person
be given the benefit of evary doubt."
■ I asked Mr. Butler if he felt that
this could beregarded as the gener-
al attitude schools and colleges.
In view of certain charges of In-
tolerance toward Jews which have
been brought In connection with
various proceedings snd the utter-
ancea of some important men In
certain educational Institutions.
“So far as American schools and
colleges are concerned.” he an-
swered, ‘there is among them, real-
ly: very little interference with that
which we justly prize as academic
freedom
"Much thst is spoken and written
to the contrary, many accusations
which are made, whether general or
specific, are utter nonsense. The
notion that un-named privated in-
terests control the universities and
particularly their touching of eco-.
nemic subjects. In as baseless as that
such Interests control the climate.
"Most of the instances which at-
tract attention In the public prints
involve, in fact, not academic free-
dom or assaults on It, but simply
bad manners.
"After forty years of very close
observation I find myself unable to
recall more than two instances of
the real abuse of academic freedom
In American universities and col-
leg##—Instances, that la, to which it
would be reasonable to attach any
considerable import. Both of these
occurred many years ago.
The Spirit of the True Liberalism
"The spirit of true liberalism in
an educational institution or else-
where. whether it be in a religious
body, a legislative assembly, a news-
paper or a social or economic or-
ganization, grants to others every
right snd privilege which one claims
for one's self, r
“Liberalism resists all Invitations
to use force when reasonableness
and education will achieve the end.
“It steadfastly refuses to coop-
erate in any endeavor to control by
law personal habits, private con-
duct or the individual beliefs of any
man.

AUSTIN, March 10.—One of the
hardest fought sad closest contests
of this session was staged over the
socalled “carbon black" bill, and it
was defeated just before midnight
Thursday night by indefinite post-
ponement, the margin of victory for
opponents being just one. The IIII
had been amended to make carbon
black usuable only from walls of
less than 200 pounds rock pressure
—a pressure that is below that nec-
essary for domestic use at shy dis-
tance from the wells—aad was vir-
tually disemboweled by another
amendment that made carbon black
permits permi.mable only- in fields
from which the gas was being piped
out of the state for carbon black
manufacture in other states. The
i District a Attorney Walter #.
Schenek arrived la the city Saturday
afternoon to spend the weekend hi
conferring with various officials and
attorneys with reference to the ap-
pointment of an assistant. This of-
flee was left vacant last Monday
when Ham Holliday tendered his
resignation and became associated
with a local law firm.
Mr. Schenck has received applica-
tion for the position from four local
attorneys, whose names he did not
divulge. He stated however that the
applicant# were all eligible to the
appointment In the way of qualifi-
cation and that he had a difficult
task before him. | a
Late Saturday evening bc stated
that the appointment in all prob-
ability would not be made until the
latter part of the week. Mr. Schenck
expected to return to Graham Sun-
day afternoon.",. _
In the meantime while the Posi-
tion of assistant district attorney Is
unfilled, the county attorney And
outstanding figure in the content

county most seriously affected by
the lack of opportunity to use its

the bill had. It passed the senate

Opposes Court Bin.
Governor Neff told a delegation
of senators and representatives that
he intended vetoing house bill 565,
which created a new district court
In Montague and Clay counties and
left Denton and Cooke counties to
comprise the sixteenth district. The
bill established the court for two
years, but eInce this would mean its
existence after the next regular ses-
sion in 1935 the governor held that
the effect would be to establish a
permanent court. He was opposed
to any new courts with many of
them over the state now doing little
to third reading, providing for an
out-of-state board to conduct the
survey. A fight on that provision
will be made when the bill is again
taken up in the house—it already
has passed the senate—and an ef-
fort made to substitute a provision
requiring all members of the survey
to be citizens of Texas This, in
the opinion of proponents ‘of the
bill, would make- it ja detriment
rather than a help to the education-
al system of the state. They are
counting on the fact, however that
It will require a two-thirds majority
to amend the bill In Its present
status and that they will be able
to put It through without amend,
ment. Proponents of the bill would
vote to kill it if that feature were
incorporated, as they say It would

started in the house to house con
terees urging -them to accept ths
two per cent imposed in the senate
bill. Neither side of the conference
hss broached the idea of two and
one-half per cent as a compromise:
both sre apparently determined, to
accept anything other than the bill
