Wilson Well Known as Close Student of Vital Problems
Honesty Among Students as Christian Principle to Be Discussed by Lecturer
J. Stitt Wilson, who will speak at Myers hull this afternoon at 3 o'clock on the subject, "Student Initiative in Honesty," is one of the best known lecturers on social and industrial problems in the country. For the past two years, as a representative of the national council of the Y. M. C. A., he has traveled among the colleges and universities of the county, and student interest on subjects relating to a constructive Christian democracy.
Mr. Wilson is best known to some as the Socialist mayor of Berkley, Calif., which position he held for five years and was a resident of Berkley for 18 years.
Slum Districts Investigated As a student at Northwestern University 25 years ago, Mr. Wilson became interested in the study of social and economic problems, and considerable time was spent in investigating the housing conditions in Chicago. The work that he did was so outstanding that it attracted the attention of Henry Wade Rogers, then president of that University.
After his graduation from Northwestern he went to the University of California, where he received his doctorate in education. His doctor's degree. He has resided in England twice, during which time he became affiliated with the labor movement in that country. He spent two years at University doing special research work.
Attacks on League Answered Mr. Wilson attracted wide public attention in 1919 when, as a representative of the California League for Ratification of the Peace Treaty and the League of Nations, he followed the leaders' advice by answering the latter's attack on the League.
Mr. Wilson's theory is that the great social, economic, political, religious, and international problems of today can be solved only by the application of the principles of Christianity from the philosophical and educational standpoint. His lecture on student bonney this afternoon, he said, will be certain not with the outward aspects of bonney or dishonesty, but with the Christian principles that make for bonney.
