To the Editors of The Crimson:
Had I been longer at this University, I might be, perhaps more used to and less bothered by the "dirt" in your editorials (see the discussion of "dirt" in the Economics Department in your April 10 issue.) But your gloating over Professor Eckstein's decision to go on half-time status takes the cake. His decision is a serious loss to the University, to you.

It is sad that you don't seem to care about this aspect of the matter. Zvi Griliches Professor of Economics
