HIGH HOPES FOR
VICTORIES HELD
BY DEMOCRATS
State Chairman Says Party
Future Depends on
* Officeholders.
lor a Democratic victory
in the fall election are “extremely
favorable prominent Democrats
attending the advisory committee
tonferenct t r day at the Glavpool
declared.
Party policy concerning school
aid, a constitutional convention and
methods of reapportionment were
placed before the committee for
onsideration and recommendations
by R. Eai 1 Peters, state chairman.
Preceding discussion of these
points, Peters declared optimism
among Democrats over the state
is high but the victories won in
the city elections should not be op
portunities for jollification, but
rather a rededication to public
service in order that the party may
gain other victories.
Future With Officials
“The future of the Democratic
party rests on the manner in which
the civic affairs are conducted by
the new officials.” Peters said.
He pointed out that the com
bined Democratic majority in city
elections was 100,000. and that
Hoover carried this state by 300,000
while Leslie was elected Governor
by about 45,000 votes.
The majority by which the Re
publicans win in Marion county is
the percentage of the G. O. P. vic
tory through the state, Peters de
clared.
The fact that Indianapolis was
carried by 30.000 votes by the
Democrats should give a working
margin for our victory of by at
least 5.000 or 6.000 votes in the fall
state-wide election,” he said.
Woollen Speaks
Elias Salsbury, Indianapolis at
torney, discussed defects of the state
aid law and its administration.
Evans Woollen and Dan Sims of
Lafayette discussed constitutional
revision.
The committee will confer soon
and will make a report of its recom
mendations to the Democratic state
committee at its meeting Feb. 13
>n the eve of the Democratic Edi
orial Association meeting here.

NEW YORK. Jan. 17.—Dean Ed

kins university, one of the most
exclusive schools in America, values
many undergraduates as “products
of a stuffing machine,” and the de
gree of A. B. as “a mere label—a
standard bonded label on a bootleg
bottle,” he declared today in an in
terview' with a representative of
the American Magazine.
“What the ordinary' college cur
riculum today represents,” he con
tinued, “simply is the accumulated
debris of the last three or four hun
dred years of hit-or-miss instruc
tion. Some of it should be dismissed
immediately as the mere flub-dub
and flapdoodle—inherited rubbish.
At least a third of America’s grad

of whom it has been said ‘they know'
more and more about less and less

Berry, the only degreeless univer

reputation by studying botany and
geology while attempting to make
an ordinary living as a newspaper
man in other fields.
His analyses of the formation and

to his steady rise to one of the fore
