The results of the investigation led to a flattier contrast the newspaper stories in the charges of unpatriotic action and of disorder. In a further effort to counteract the sensational newspaper stories, the executive secretary of the Methodist Student Conference, R. F. Chapter, student at the Garrett Bible Institute, Chicago, sent telegrams to members of the executive committee in various colleges and universities of the nation to urge them to news their terrorism."
