Mr. Scott Nearing, prominent sociologist, will speak before the Liberal Club on March 24 at 1 o'clock, it was announced last night. Mr. Nearing was under consideration last year as a lecturer at the Union but was barred from speaking by the authorities, together with Eugene V. Debs and William Z. Foster.
Before the war, Mr. Nearing was an instructor in economics at the University of Pennsylvania. He was dismissed from that position for alleged socialistics teachings, whereupon he took his present professorship at the Rand School of Social Science in New York.
Of Mr. Nearing's numerous debates, the most widely known is one with Bertrand Russell last year on the question of "Bolshevism as Applied to Western Civilization."
