*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
