Cambridge, England, November 29, 1928--An eloquent speech for his native land by T. H. Eliot '28, an assistant managing editor of the CRIMSON last year, and grandson of the late Charles W. Eliot '53, former president of Harvard University, resulted in the voting down by the judges of a condemnatory resolution following a debate here.
As Eliot ended an impassioned address, which was frequently halted by prolonged applause of the audience, the judges, by a three to one majority, decided against the proposal that "The continued existence of the United States threatens the best interests of the world".
Eliot, who holds a scholarship at Emmanuel College, completely won over the audience and judges by his tactful upholding of the policies and world position of the United States.
