WILL PAY SALARIES
PUBLICATION BOARD VOTES TO
REIMBURSE STAFF'S EFFORTS
WITH MONEY.

Arrangements Being Made to Pay An
nual Editors and Possibly
ThoBe in Charge
of Avvgwan.
The Student Publication Hoard met
last night in tin- otfice of its presi
dent. Dean O P Stout, and in a
two hour session disposed of two very
important matters It decided that
In tin future no moie credit would
lie gien for work on any student pub
Heat ion, and it decided to pay edi
tors of The I)ail Nebraskan a def
inite salar.
It was lust lound that last semes
ter's editorial staff i ecoinmended that
n total of tent six hours credit be
fsiveii for woik on the Rag It was
suggested that this total be aibitiai
i j reduced to twentv two bonis Hut
realizing the injustice which this per
f.-ctly consistent policy would do to
'hose who had earned theii credit and
Meeded it, tin bo.ud fmalh passed a
Motion In gre c n-dii to all persons
lecominendi (1 who had registered foi
!ie woik and h.id clone it taithfulh
Foi the position of circulating man
nger ol the .N'ebiaskan, onl one ap
plication was pieseiited to the. Hoard
Some menibei obserwd that the
policy ol electing men to positions
without giving notice to the student
public of the acancy tended to the
formation ol a-clique composed ol the
appointees ot the upper stafl mem
hers. Acting upon the wisdom of this
observation, the Hoaid appointed no
circulation manager, but decided to
advertise for more applications
The Hoard next took up the matter
of Nebiaska salaries left In an un
settled slate last meeting It was
definitelv decided that for this semes
ter absolutel no credit was to be
given for work on the Rag. The Re
gents granted the Hoard permission
to pay the editors money instead of
credit ncording to the following
schedule ot salaiies editor in chief,
$100 per senieslei , managing editor,
$50 per semester, one associate edi
tor, $f0 per semester. The Hoard was
unanimous in the opinion that the Ne
braskan in spite of the spring drop
ping off of advertisers will be able
to pay the full amount of this remun
eration. Lest this annual spring loss
-of advertising should imperil the
chances of bearing this additional
burden a committeo was appointed to
see whether the University should be
requested to make any advances for
Nebraska salaries. Therefore, while
three editors of the Rag are assured
of receiving pay for their services,
until the results of the committee's
investigations are ascertained, ye

POTATO INSTITU I fc. PARTY WON
Found Some Opposition On Western
Trip Institute Idea Much Fa
vored by Potato Growers.
The members of the Nebraska Po
tato Institute won out against much
opposition last week in Scotts Hluff
count. The Potato Institute party
sent out by the Universltv into the
Tri state irrigation country besides
getting stuck In a snow drift while go
nig across country in an auto, on
counted public sales with free lunch
as a side attraction in every town they
struck. In spite of this it was a very
successful trip and the potato grow
ers gained some very valuable point
ers The success was due partly to the
efficiency of the demonstrators and
also to the new idea of concentrating
upon one subject. The party con
sisted of Miss Pascal, ou cooking;
Prof. R. A. Emerson, potato breeding;
Professor Wilcox, potato diseases;
L. D. Sweet of Colorado, the growing
of the potato, and N. G. Nelson of
Omaha, the marketing of the potato.
This is contrary to the usual custom
of having the farmersB Institute deal
with every thing in the way of farm
ing. The indications are that this new
way will take procedei.

ROSCOE POUND WRITES PAPER
Former Nebraskan Is Authority on
"Social Problems and the Courts.'.
Uoscoe Pound, 1888, formerly of the
University of Nebraska and now
Story professor of law in the Harvard
University Law school, has recently
published in the American Journal of
Sociology an extremely interesting
and instructive paper on "Social Prob
lems and the Courts." The aubject
is discussed from an evolutionary
standpoint and with his well-known
clearness he expresses himself so
definitely that when one has finished
reading It he finds that he has a very
good notion indeed of the whole prob
lem. The paper Is too long to bo sum
marized but it can be commended as
one of the best of recent contribu
tions. March 15
