26 HUGHES DECLARES INTOLERANCE PERIL Tells Bar Meeting Encroach- ment on Liberty of Learn- ing Is Probiem. By the Associated Press DETROIT, Mich.. September Liberty and law are a combin ‘which our political alchemists to find increasing difficulty in success fully achieving,” Charles Evans Hughes said today in opening the forty-ninth meeting of the American Bar Association, of which he is pres. ident “We call ourselves the ministers of fustice,” he said, “but we are re minded that the justice to be admin istered is justice according to law the expression of the democra will.” The problems presented by the mul tiplicity of laws, the encroachments on liberty of inadequate payment of judges, granted lawyers. especially in sensa tional cases, and the need of proper standards of le; education for ad mission to the bar were among the many facets that sparkled in| Mr. Hughes' : s8 Has “Liberty today learning d Scope. has such broad scope,” he said, “that it taxes the acumen of the ablest statesman to provide laws which even measurably assure it.

Ark., —Thomas A. Hill, speaker of the Arkansas House of Representatives at the 1925 session, was indicted late vesterday by the Pulaski County grand jury on a charge of forgery of public records. This is the fifth indictment against Speaker Hill in connection with the 1925 session. The indictment charges that Bill No. 519. which provides for a over committee to complete the wor of the Legislature, was never read | the third time or voted upon in House and that the speaker !m:ed} an entry in the record showing that | the bill was read ‘and passed. in learning. Perhaps this is the most precious privilege of liberty—the privilege of pursuing untrammeled the - paths of discovery, of in- ¢, of invention. And, like other s of liberty, it is not one to ved to a few. It belongs to all, and the only protection for all is that it does belonz to all and that society is thus assured its full benefit. €t it is with respect to the free- dom of learning that we find a dis- position to impose restrictions which cannot fall to give us grave concern. “Believing as I do that the freedom of lear: is the vital breath of democra and progress, I trust that A recognition of its supreme impor- ance will direct the hand of power d that our public schools and State iniversities may enjoy the priceless | advantages of courses of instruction designed to promote the acquisition of all knowledge and may not be {placed under restrictions to prevent it; apd that our teachers may be en- | ed to know and to teach the truth, the whole truth and nothing | appointment, of a special committee but the truth.
