Harvard Intellectuals To Attend Symposium

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Four professors from Harvard are among 80 intellectuals from throughout the world who have been invited to a five-day symposium on United States problems to be held at Princeton starting December 1.

Invited to the seminar are John Kenneth Galbraith, Paul M. Warburg Professor of Economics; Stanley Hoffman, professor of Government; Martin Peretz, assistant professor of Government; and Gino Germani, an Argentine sociologist teaching at Harvard.

The seminar, entitled "The United States--Its Problems, Impact and Image in the World, "is run by the International Association for Cultural Freedom, a private organization of scholars, writers and men of public affairs.

The scholars hope their discussion will have a political impact, but when asked if he thought this would happen, Hoffmann said "No."
