GOLDEN JUBILEE
AT JOHNS HOPKINS
Extensive Preparations for the Occa
sion Are New Being Made.
Baltimore, Md.. Jan. 15.—Johns
Hopkins University, which holds a
: high place among American institu
tions of learning, is making extensive
5 preparations for the celebration next
month of the semi-centennial of its
foundation. Compared with equally
famous but more venerable universi
-1 ties in America and Europe, Johns
■ Hopkins is a mere youngster. Yet
; its half-eentury has been an extremely
! important period in the development
' of American education.
“A school for scholars” is a phrase
that for mqny years has been applied
‘ to Johns Hopkins University. It was
the first institution in America to be
' founded with the primnry object of
stimulating research and of advanc
ing the sum total of knowledge, as
distinguished from the mere instruc
tion of students by the ordinary meth
ods. The overwhelming majority of
, its students have been graduates of
other institutions.
The treasandnun influence exerted
; by . the university is to be seen in
- the great number of its graduates on
. the facilities of ether institutions.
There le hardly a university in the
United States that does not number
among its teachers at least one Johns
Hopkins man. Universities of Japan,
Canada, Europe and the Philippines
are also included in the list.
Several departments of Johns Hop
kins were organized for the first time
in America. Thus, the first labora
tory in the United States specifically
for psychology was established in 1881
tinder Gi Stanley Hall. The scien
tific study of Semitic philogy was be-
I gun in 1883 when Paul Haupt came
to the United States to begin the Ori
i netal Seminary to Johns Hopkins.
' The Polychrome Bible—a complete
■ critical edition of the Hebrew Bible
i with the different strata of the sev
eral books printed in different colors
: in order to make possible an Hfstant
- comprehension of the analysis—was
■ planned and is being edited by Prof.
! Haupt with the collaboration of many
i scholars. • -
• In classic studies the university has
| always been strong. The natural
; science departments have also been
noteworthy, while the Johns Hopkins
| Medical School is known the world
over. Some ten years ago the uni
* versify extended its activities into the
‘ fields of law and medicine.
, A merchant of Baltimore, Johns
Hopkins, founded the university, be
queathing the greater part of his es
tate for the establirfiment of a hos
. pital and university. The university
was incorporated in 1867. The found
[ er died in 1873; at the-age of 79 years,
. and a year'later the election of a
president took place, Daniel Colt Gil
, man, then president of the University
of California, being selected.
The work of the new institution of
higher learning began in a humble
way in two old houses and in two
, new buildings built by the trustees.
Classrooms were opened for the first
time in October, 1876, with a total
, enrollment of eighty-nine. As oc
- easion demanded, other buildings were
[ erected until now the university plant
is one of the largest and most modern
j in the country. The Johns Hospkins
_ Hospital, a world-famous institution,
g was dedicated in 1889, and four years
e later the medical school was opened.
Today the university hns a staff of
nearly 400 teachers and an enrollment
£ of more than 1,500 students,
o Since Johns was eßtab
y lished if has had only three presi
dents. President Gilman served 22
” years and retired in 1901, being sut
% seeded by Dr. Ira Bemsen, who served
rt until 1014, when Dr. Frank J. Good
-5 now was called to the presidency.

Washington, Jan;' 15.—UP)—Advo
cating replacing the wrecked Shenan
lioad with a larger dirigible, Captain

neval committee today that airships
“can weather anything" over water.

ed in a windstorm marked by rapidly
rising air currents, and that such
storms are never known over the sea.

fleet of dirigibles, he asserted, be
cause the enemy would have one.
The witness declared if proposals
to close the Lakehurst station and -tie
up the Los Angeles are carried out,
the navy might as well give up light
er than air activities.
Replying to Representative Vinson
Democrat, of Georgia, the captain said
he tad no knowledge of a propaganda
campaign by commercial air Arms to
bandon the Lakehurst station.

NEW CRISES ARE SEEN I
AS CONFRONTING SO^JTH
Dr. Freeman and Prof. Graham tlrd*
Sane Liberalism on Press and tip
Schools.
Chapel Hill. Jan. 14.—Dr. Doug
lass S. Freeman, editor of the Rich
mond Va., News Leader, and Prof.
Frank Porter Graham, associate pro
fessor of history in the University of
North Carolina, delivered epoch mak
ing addresses at the State newspaper
institutp banquet here tonight. Both
, speakers talked about many relation
ships between the colleges and the
press, but their chief emphasis was
the same. It was a plea for sane
liberalism in the college and the prtes ,
with special reference to the stored*
that comprise the South Atlantic sea
board.
Both visualized this section es the
country as one facing new crises and (
new problems, in the solution of which
hangs the future security of the
South,
John A. Park, publisher of the Ra
leigh Times, presided over the ban
quet. Just before the addresses there
was a short concert by the Univer
sity’s far-famed Glee Club and music
by the University orchestra.
Dr. Freeman spoke first. His sub
ject was “The Relation of the News
paper to the College.” He would tie
up the colleges and the press into a
close relationship. He would train
newspapermen first in schools of jour
nalism in the college that these men
might be grounded in economics and
history, sociology and other subjects
that make a well informed newspa
per man. He would have these men
respect their profession as do lawyers
and doctors. With such men in con
trol of the press there would dawn a
new day in liberalism for the South
and with it a higher civilization than >
any now dreamed of. “These men,
said Dr. Freeman, “would throw off
thiß yoke of moss grown eonversn- 1
tion that so long held the South in
bondage.” Newspaper problems of to
day are so vastly more complex than
they were even a decade ago that the
■ highest type of men are required to
* do the work efficiently.-
There is a great dearth of such
» men, he said. The reason is low pay.
But the pay is bound to rise if the
■ papers hope to give the public the im
proved service that it requires and the
i colleges can play the major role in
elevating the standards of the news
paper profession by turning out men
. thoroughly equipped to meet the is
. sues of the new day,
Frank Graham talked about “The
University and the Press.” He said
, the one was the counterpart of the
other. Both rest finally on the same
great basis of public support. They
J have “the same problems and the
; same great public concerns of our
' times.”
1 Professor Graham then outlined
what he called three great crises of
1 the times. The first was the freedom,
’ of colleges to live and to grow, a
situation brought about by the great
influx of students after the war and
* which- in this state was met tempo
r rarily by the educational campaign of
1 1921.
J The second crisis he described ns
1 "the freedom of the colleges to re
!* port and to consider scientific facts
e and hypotheses already formed—a
situation that springs from the rising
* intellectual horizon of the people."
” “In this situation,” said Professor
® Graham, “the press aifid the colleges
“ came to realize that holding back
from the young mindß creates
doubt, cynicism. The colleges and
press saved this state from the unhap
* py fate of Tennessee.”
t- ‘The colleges have now found room
y for the social sciences alongside the
n human ties and natural sciences.”
>- The third crisis was described as the
t- challenge of freedom to find newecon
d omic facto and new social gelations.
■e “Just now,” h« said, “there is a
b- tremendous economic and social de
velopment taking place along the
Atlantic seaboard. There is a great
nexv industrial belt reaching from Bir
mingham to Lynchburg.”
■'The people of North Carolina have
more at stake in this industrial revo
lution than in any event sinee the
Civil War. This is a time for study.
We stnnd at the gateways of indus
try threug'h which increasing thou
sands of our people ams increasing
millions of our wealth may pass to
the production of a greater wealth and
a richer life. This is a time for in
dustrial statesmanship on the part of
the leaders in industry in working
out together the industrialization and
humanization of our life. This is the
chief business of the people of 'North
-Carolina today and the business of
the people of North Carolina Is the
business of the University of North
Carolina. It is her purpose to vio
late no right, to promote no special
' interest, to hamper no industry, but
to study and envisage the whole and
various life of the commonwealth and
help build a nobler civilization in this
pleasant land. This is her responsi
bility. Now is no time for ehnrges
and counter chargee and armed
threats. She makes no threats and
misunderstandings; she seeks to un
derstand. Oil this high ground she
stands and will stnnd as unshaken as
the wooded hills which have guarded
her round about for one hundred and
thirty-three years.
“Gentlemen of the press, the free
dom of the University and the free
dom of the press they rise or fall to
gether.”

OUR POULTRY MEN
WON THREE PRIZES
In the Poultry Show at New York
Last Week.—Anson Won First
Place.
Raleigh, N. C„ Jan. 15. — UP)—
Poultry club members of North Caro
lina who entered their birds at the
National Poultry Show at Madison
Square Garden, New York, last week,
won three first places, one second
place, one third place, and one fourth,
on seven entries made at the show, ac
cording to information just received
here by Allen G. Oliver, poultry ex
tenes'ioH specialist at State College.
Only seven birds were selected by
Mr. Oliver from the jroultry clubs of
North Carolina to be taken to the
Madison Square Garden show. Here
the birds were placed in eonri>etition
with those selected by the greatest
poultry fanciers of the country and in
this competition gave an excellent ac
count of themselves, according to Mr.
Oliver. The results secured in New
York show that the boys and girls of
North Carolina know how to grow
good chickens, he says, and know how
to feed and prepare them for the show
ring.
Birds from Anson county won first
place and a fourth place on two en
tries. Catawba county won two first
places, one second, and one third, out
of five entries.
These results show without doubt
the good work being done by members
of the boys’ and girls’ poultry clubs,
says Mr. Oliver, and indicate that
there are some fine birds now being
bred on the farms of North Carolina.

operation or working together for the
common good is the principle upon
1 which the Associated I’ress is based.
' U. L. McCall, superintendent of the
V southern division of the Associated'
1 Press, declared here today.
Mr. MeCall spoke before the News*
pare Institute under the auspices Os
the North Carolina Press Association,
, and the University of North Carolina
extension division department of jour
nalism news bureau,
j Each of the 1,300 members of tMU
organization. Superintendent McCall
( declared, and every one of the array
t of reporters “must feel that lie has
the responsibility of getting out the
world's news, that he belongs to one
great newspaper.
, “I kave often been asked by persons
who knew nothing of the Associated
Press: 'Where is it published?' and
j it would be well if members and their
staffs could get the spirit of oneness
1 that this query suggests. Go-opera
tion is the principle of the Golden
Rule applied to business in the mod
ern. It has taken 1800 years for us
to find out it is good policy ns well
as good morals and good ethics.
"The founders of the Associated'
Press saw that on this principle the
best service of all, big and little,
would be obtained. The inclination
to get ahead of the other fellow is
very short sighted, it may work once,
but it will be a boomerang that will ‘
return to bring disaster another time; ;
to the one who follows it.”

Bank in Tfafe Section.
Washington, Jan. 15 04?)—Apples*
tion of the Richmond Federal Reserve
Bank for authority to establish a
branch was before the Federal Reserve
Board again today, and arguments ex-,
peeted finally to conclude hearings on
the question were presented by rep--
resentatives of a dozen cities in North'
Carolina and South Carolina ns to the.
necessity for the institution.
Today's hearings were In the nature !
of supplementary proceedings, as the.
Reserve Board heard the views of the
Richmond Bank officials some month*
ago. In the previous hearing much of
the argument given again today was
made in an effort to prove that the
big interests in the district would be
better served if a branch bank were
authorized. No decision by the board
appeared in immediate prospect as the
hearing got underway, and It was pre
dicted in informal quarters that the
board would indefinitely delay an
nouncement of conclusion in the case.
