This meeting will afford an excellent opportunity for those interested in industrial relations to get the viewpoint of Mr. Emery, a man who has been most active in the movement favoring the open shop.

Such men we want, for they bring to the campus an outside viewpoint, and will leave in the University history periods of which we may be proud as they. The argument, however, stands. Since the universities derive no benefit from such educational peregrinations and the students themselves lose all the true significance of college life, the practice should be relegated to the scrap...
