...trait for which Americans are wellknown is the rapidity with which they forget--even things which once stirred their emotions to the highest pitch. This trait is being exhibited today in a tragic way, by the people as a whole and by Congress in particular.

It would seem, however, that a drive for funds for the Business School would make a particular appeal to men not graduates of the college, who themselves, have a vital interest in the development of business efficiency.
