New Haven, Conn., Sept. 24--Charles E. Clark, Dean of the Yale Law School, paid the following tribute to Dean Pound last night:

"Dean Pound's resignation brings sorrow to lawyers everywhere. A brilliant scholar in fields broadly philosophic as well as technically legal, at home equally in foreign jurisprudence and American law, for years a force in legal education, he yet found time in an unusually active career to lead all movements for law reform and improvement. I trust his withdrawal from administrative duty indicates no diminution of his public service, and that for many years to come he will continue to be a national and international leader of our profession."
