COMMITTEE MAKES CADET STATEMENT Student Representatives Say Question Has Been Shifted Too Much to One of Mess Hall. The State. Olemson College, March 16.?De daring that "the whole trouble may be summed up in lack of confidence in the authorities, duly constituted though they be," the committee of three juniors and seniors left at the college has issued a statement on the Clemson situation. "When 800 men leave an institution there is something deeper than mere question of food in the mess hall. The issue has been shifted too much to that," says the statement, which follows in full: "In order that our action may not be misunderstood by the people of the state at large, we wisfi to issue the following ' statement regarding the findings of the board of trustees: "When we were left here by the junior and senior classes, we were given absolute authority to present our petition to the board of trustees and do what in our judgment, we saw best. Under that authority, we struck out the last clause of the petition in which it was stated that we would not return to Clemson college if the said requests were not granted, and in such form, we presented the petition, to the board of trustees. It io t-ma it T96 ntrirk*?n out after the AO *V w w- _ departure of the clashes, but it is also true that we had the authority for so doing. "If the board was not convinced from our statement that such authority existed in us, it is certainly impossible to make cur position clear. As to our individual positions with reference to the findings of the board, they were all stated specifically. We can not see how the board felt that the only document before it was in the form of an absolute ulti-roo+r?m The idea that the corps of iilM W U41tl ? .? cadets looks down on labor is all wrong. This is proved by the fact that between January a id June of last year, the present senior class voluntarily did most of the work that was done in the mess hall. The corps of cadets does not object to military discipline nor are we so foolish as to deny the right to la^v an 1 order, arid if such an idea be prevalent throughout the state, it is a mistaken one, but when 800 men leave an institution, there is something deeper than mere question of food in the mess hall. The issue has been shifted too much to that. "The whole trouble tviovr Ka summed ud in a iack ol" con 411UJ 4 fidence in the authorities, duly constituted though they be. If such a condition exists, there is. a reason and we hope that the question will not rest until everything is brought to light." (Signed) "J. H. O'Dell, U. X. Cullum, G. G. Gilmer." It is a fact that only about 400 left outright. The juniors and seniors went on furloughs. Head of Clemson Requests Inquiry. The State. Clemson College, March 16.?W. M. Riggs, president of Clemson college, and J. M. Cummins, commandos* havp reouested Senator Alan Johnstone, president of the board of trustees, to have a thorough investigation made into their respective offices. The. letter from President Riggs follows: "Dear Mr. Johnstone: "I think it wise to request the *board of trustees to. have a thorough investigation of the conduct of the president's office. It is always the history of student movements of the kind through which we have just passed, that after every- specific ground of complaint has been disposed of the defense then turns upon a - ~ 1 lack of confidence m tne coiiege authorities, particularly the president. During: disturbances of this kind, and in the events leading up to them absurd rumors are circulated which are eagerly seized upon. Nothing is so common as to have an entire student body sincerely believe rumors > which have no foundation whatever in fact. "At the same time it is very necessary in order that the atmosphere be thoroughly cleared to have every phase of this matter looked into. "Despite the fact that the recent list of student grievances contained no specific complaint against the president, I am convinced that they feel such grievances. "I have another reason for making this request. Since the board has disapproved or provided a remedy for grievances already presented, there is left no excuse to deter members of the junior and senior classes, who comply with your recent orders, from returning to Clemson, if they have faith that the hoard will con4?nnp in thp same sr>irit of fairness hitherto shown in its inquiry into any and all other matters that may seem to need investigation, although airing of any remaining phase of the situation m?y put them in possession of facts not otherwise obtainable. Also I it may enable the board to locate sources of infection outside of the j student body which have been active jlv hostile to the administration and ] I believe a very lar^e contributing fac I tor to the discontent which grew ir the mind of the student body prioi | to our recent troubles. The interesl ! of CTemson as an educational instij tution must be the first consideration' [and with that feeling I make th? , request. I would express the hop* j that the matter might be reached nol I later than your regular spring meet ling. April 7." The letter from Colonel Cummins i the commandant, follows: i "To the board of trustees (through |the president of the college), t "Gentlemen: | "I request a full investigation of I - n nf + Vio ! ill! tile dJLiaao ui vuv ; office as soon as it is practicable foi j you to make it." i j Parents to Talk Clemson Trouble. | The State.

PROHIBITION TEST FROM NEW JERSEY Arguments Already Made in Cases i of Rhode Island, Kentucky and Massachusetts. Washington, March 15.?All phas! es of the prohibition question -will be heard by the supreme court before ; handing down ir.s decision upon the " validity 01 ins prumuioivjn aun.uu 'ment and the Volstead act. ; Having heard arguments in the 'Rhode Island, Kentucky and Massachusetts cases, the court today granted the state of New Jersey permission to institute original proceedings to test the amendment. It also fixed March 29 for hearing arguments in the New Jersey proceedings, on appeal by Christian Feigenspan, a Newark, N. J., brewer, and on government appeals in injunction proceedf ings against the Maitowoc Products : company, a Wisconsin concern, i The two appeals cases apply principally to the validity of the prohibition amendment in so far as it relates to the manufacture of beer alleged : to be non-intoxicating. The govern! ment won the former but lost the latI ter case in the lower courts. | The court also took under advise: ment motions asking that arguments , be heard on appeals involving inter! pretations of the amendment and the Volstead act docketed today from New York and San Francisco. The former appeal resulted from the denial of injunctions to prevent federal i acrents from seizing intoxicating li quors assigned for private consumption but held in storage. In view of the multiplicity of requests for hearings, the court pro1 posed a two weeks recess planned to begin March 29. WILL BENET RUN AGAINST SMITH? Columbian Reticent as to Future in State Politics. jXews and Courier. | Columbia, March 16.?Information j has come from Washington and other ! places that Christie Benet of Colum bia might oppose Senator unison j Durant Smith of Lynchburg for the j United States senate in the coming 'primaries in 1920. This information j is without authenticity as far as car !be ascertained at Columbia tonight. ; Mr. Benet, who is a former United States senator appointed by ex-Gov. Richard I. Manning to succeed ! the late Senator Benjamin Ryan Tillman when he died and was defeated ; by William P. Pollock of Cheraw in a race with Mr. Pollock and Thomas H. Peeples, then attorney general oi the state in a special primary election held at the call of former Governor Manning:. Senator Bonet tonight was reticent ; as to his position in future State politics when questioned by a news| paper man. Various allegations have ! come out of Washington that Senatoi ; Smith is being opposed for reelection by various members of the South Carolina house delegation. These allegations have not been officially substantiated, however, but they are practically true, and these members have attempted to get various South Carolina prominent men to oppose the senior senator. Among those who have been mentioned as candi! dates against Senator Smith othei than Senator Benet have been Col j William Banks of Columbia anc i William P. Pollock of Cheraw. It is ! more than probable that ex-Senatoi Pollock will announce a^ain.-t Senator Smith. A crtnil mwlinf wit.T>r>i7f .1 nail. C would occu . v 14 days 5 hours tc travel a mile. ?'
