AVER THAT POSTS UNSEALED DURING 300TH CONFERENCE

Charges made by three Harvard graduates that pamphlets mailed to delegates and professors at the Harvard Tercentenary were destroyed were denied by University officials yesterday. The pamphlets entitled "Walled in the Tomb" were directed against President-emeritus Lowell for his stand in the Sacco-Vanzetti case and were mailed by Varian Fry '30, Quincy Howe '21, and Gardner Jackson.

According to Jerome Green '96, director of the Tercentenary, a pile of pamphlets about four feet high were received in the office on Thursday, September 17, just in the midst of the rush. His office force was immediately put to work to forward the pamphlets to the Cambridge addresses of the delegates and all but about 25 were sent. Since about 25 of the addresses were not known, this number of pamphlets was retained and will be returned to those sending them.

The trio presented to Karl A. Crowley, postoffice department solicitor, newspaper reports that the pamphlets, which they said were sent under first class postage, were destroyed by orders of university officials after their sub stance was discovered. The contents of the pamphlet were known to Greene since one of them was addressed to him, but none was destroyed and only 25 of them were not delivered.

Sponsors of the pamphlet included the three Harvard men, as well as Heywood Broun, Charles Angoff, former editor of the American Mercury, Stuart Chase, George Biddle, Philadelphia artist, and a number of other Harvard men, the protesting graduates declared.

Fry is editor of the Living Age and Howe is an editor and publisher. Jackson is a former Washington newspaper man, who was associated with the Agricultural Adjustment Administration in its early days.

What action if any the Postal authorities will take is not known at present. The superintendent at the Cambridge office declared that he knew nothing about the matter
