Suspension of the Harvard Guardian for the duration of the war with the December issue was announced last night by the Guardian board. A pressing lack of manpower was given as the primary cause of the decision to suspend the "review of the social sciences" with the issue on the stands today.
Facing its most promising financial year since its founding in 1937, this first of Harvard publications to close because of a war-depleted student body, has announced a plan for rebates to subscribers.
Money Refunded
All subscribers whose subscriptions have not expired are assured by the board that they will be given a rebate pro rata in the near future. At the same time it was announced that Payson S. Wild '30, associate professor of Government, will act as trustee of the magazine during the period of non-publication.
Founded in the spring of 1937 by Frank Davidson '38, the Guardian was pioneer in the field of History, Economics, and Government. It was encouraged by such famous literary names as Walter Lippman at the time of its first appearance.
An article written for the CRIMSON, March 15, 1937, by Crane Brinton '19, associate professor of History, greeted to the newcomer among Harvard publications. "Those whose joy is discerning trends will find the Harvard Guardian a portent. Here planned and carried out by undergraduate initiative, is a new periodical devoted wholly to work done in History, Government and Economics. . . It is hoped that the Guardian will survive, for its first number is most encouraging.'
