...fail to sympathize with Mr. Bingham. Faced with a sharp drop in revenues last year, he cut expenses far below what would once have been considered a bare minimum, yet managed to maintain essentially a full program. Through it all, he has resisted all pressure to countenance the commercialization of Harvard sport. In comparison with other athletic directors, his conception of the place of athletics in a college has been the opitome of sanity. In justification of his present demand for new sources of income, he can point to the undoubted economics already effected. He can call attention...
...still believe that the editors of TIME, who are instrumental in shaping the character of this program, will continue to maintain the old high standards. But if the sponsors are to attach riders to the "March of TIME," in which they try to propagandize their own political beliefs, that is the nearest thing to supervising the make-up of the original program.

The problem is not that of the old gold standard; it is inevitable that we have a managed currency under the control of the government and the banks, and we must decide whether we are going to attempt to maintain a price level as has been done in England, or whether we are going to attempt to drive prices up; to is flate...
...Fruchs' argument. His general conclusion is that the generic evil will come to an end only in some far distant communistic world-state. That the generic evil should ever be ended; that it is not necessary to progress, as such writers as Nietzsche and many capitalistic economists would maintain, is established largely by saying unpleasant things about Nietzsche and capitalists. Unfortunately, also, any proofs of the possibility of such a state, or proofs that it would actually accomplish what it set out to, are details which Mr. Fruchs does not consider...
