HAGBERG WRIGHT, Librarian, London Library. JOSEPH WRIGHT, Professor of Comparative Philology, Oxford. *Concerning the German Professors* *By Frederic Harrison.* _To the Editor of the London Morning Post_: Sir: I was not invited to join the reply of our distinguished scholars and professors, perhaps because it is so many years since I was the colleague of James Bryce as Professor of Jurisprudence to the Inns of Court. And, indeed, I do not care to bandy recriminations with these German defenders of the attack on civilization by the whole imperial, military, and bureaucratic order. It seems to me waste of time and loss of self-respect to notice these pedants. The whole German press and the entire academic class seem to be banded together as an official bureau in order to spread mendacious insults and spiteful slanders. Not a word comes from them to excuse or deny the defiance of public law and the mockery of public faith by the German Emperor, his Ministers, and his armies. These professors seem to exult in serving the new Attila--rather let us say the new Caligula, for Attila at least was an open soldier and did not skulk under the Red Cross behind barbed wire fences. We have long known that all German academic and scholastic officials are the creatures of the Government, as obedient to orders as any Drill Sergea
