Ithaca, N. Y., May 11, 1931--Both President Livingston Farrand of Cornell University and Major Robert E. Treman, chairman of the alumni committee in charge of raising funds for the university's war memorial, expressed themselves today in favor of erecting a separate memorial to Cornell's World War dead who had fought against the Allted cause. Treman announced that he had made the first contribution toward such memorial.
Farrand and Treman still oppose including the name of Hans Wagner, who died in the German ranks during the war, in the roll of honor in the memorial. According to a statement by the former, the memorial was planned as a remembrance of Cornell men who died fighting for the United States. To bring about the change proposed by the students in the interests of international good will could only be brought about by "formal action" on the part of the trustees, he claimed.
