Sir,—Has anyone noticed the amusing bit of double-think in the latest Administration handout? "Concerned about placating the public, universities attempt to present themselves as an ally to all special interest bodies, they help insurance agents pass examinations to become licensed underwriters ..." runs the article on the back page in praise of "pure research". On page five of the "Gazette" you find the proud announcement that "twelve members of the faculty gave papers at a recent insurance executives' course at the University from August 18-20". More Socialist Club burnings, I suppose?
