Also in the file is a 5-pp. segment from a Claremont College thesis submitted in 1929 by John Homer Williams, titled "Attitude toward C.C. Julian," which opens "The Times, one observes, gives special attention to those whom it dislikes. Care is taken to see that publicity given them is of an unfavorable character. C.C. Julian offers a case in point."
