LOWER PUBLICATION PRICES It often falls the lot of an editor to reconsider statements that have been published as opinion, based up on facts that lost their footing when thoroughly sounded out. In yes terday's paper, an editorial stated that the University owned print shop was charging more for printing The Daily Nebraskan than had ever been charged by private firms. An esti mate given by the University shop, indicated such, but had never been contrasted as such nor has it offici ally been anounced as being the facts. The editorial was based upon un official estimates and not upon signed contract. Since the publication of the article, an official estimate of the cost of publication has been made and that cost as it stands now, is far below cost of printing by pri vate firms. This is very agreeable to the man agement of The Daily Nebraskan for there is every intention of co-oper ation between the staff and those who have enabled the publication of this paper. The new shop enables as high class printing as there is in the state and it is hoped that the paper may measure up to the stand ard set bythe shop. and stock-room. Librarian Wyer says the new arrangement will not only make it easier for students in the specific classes to get books but also will greatly relieve the crowded con ditions at the. main library. A num ber of small rooms used for libraries and reading rooms will bo available for class-rooms after the book3 are moved. Four ancient Indian sacred books were presented to Dean P. M. Buck by the Gaikwar Library in Barodi, India. One manuscript he has given to the University library, one to Dr. L. II. Gray, one to Regent J. R. Web ster; and the other he will eventually give to a library. The manuscripts are written in ancient Tali on narrow strips of palm leaf held together by tmo cords through the middle. The script was carefully written on the green palm leaf with a stilus and tho leaves dried and smoked and then rubbed with lamp black and oil so that the characters show up black like delicate ink tracings on the brown leaves. Scholars are just be ginning to decipher this ancient liter ature. Open Meeting. Delian open meeting Friday, Sep' tember 21, 8 o'clock, Faculty Hall, Tomnle building. Everybody wel come.

B4423 FEES AS WE SEE THEM There was a great cut made in the University appropriations by the legislature that closed its doors last spring. With the increased regis tration, the necessity for increased expenditures, and the cost of a larger number of instructors, drastic measures had to be adopted, to pro vide money for the operation of this great institution. The only possible course was the boosting of fees. It was, undoubtedly, with a great measure of regret that the regents and others responsible, raised the fees. The blame seems to fall ulti mately upon the members of the legislature, who came to the recent session with the intention of reduc ing taxes. There are great sums appropriated for educational pur poses in the state and that item alone was a bone of contention for many weeks. It was felt during the session that the University, hard-hit as it was, must bear the brunt of the tax slashes. No power in the University could stop action by the law making body. No remonstration on the part of various men in the state could charge the minds of the members of the legislature. It was a case of taking the amount appropriated and raising the fees to meet the emergency or causing radical changes that would put the University of Nebraska on a plane that would be a discredit to the1 state of Nebraska. mi iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiH mi The Call For Fall 1 "Knitwear" Not just an ordinary knit sweater but brush wool jackets, Travelo's and Shadow striped and check wool vests with harmonious knit binding tailored for the man who cares for style, warmth and com fort, to meet the vagaries of all weathers equally at ease under cold and sunshine The entire knitwear family from the rare and ex clusive to the snappy school day sweaters. EDITORIAL EXPLANATION In an article in this column yes terday, which appeared to authorities as an attack upon the University, but written in in a tone of sympathy with the students who are paying the ad vanced fees, there is plenty of room and cause for further explanation. Although the editorial has been classed as "a vicious attack upon authorities," there is absolutely no reason why The Daily Nebraskan should wish to attack any action adopted by those responsible. It is a recognized fact that there should be co-operation between men editing this paper and the Univer sity, to whose service the publication is dedicated. There is a sense of sincere regret on the part of the editor that the article was construed in the sense of an attack for there is nothing to be shunned more than a touch that might border on yellow journalism or its co-partners.
