Reports Say Governor Has
"Taken Ample Care" of
Nebraska U.
By Cliff F. Sandahl.
Nebraskan Editor 1929-30.
The forty-ninth session of the
Nebraska state legislature is now
under way. Organization of the
senate, composed of thirty-three
members, and the house, with its
100 members, is now complete and
the two branches are ready to be
gin work.
Of interest to the University of
Nebraska are two matters:
1. Governor Charles W. Bryan
will present Friday at a joint
session through his budget di
rector, William H. Smith, item
ized recommendations for the
operation of the state govern
ment and Its departments for the
nLvt two vears. including main
tenance nd operation of the
University of Nebraska.
2. Consolidation of state li
brary at the university was rec
ommended by the governor in
his inaugural message delivered
at a joint legislative session
Thursday.
Regarding the latter, Governor
Bryan had this to say in his mess
age: "It is recommended that the
pubiie library commission, for
which an appropriation of $19,
200 was made in 1931, be abol
ished and the activity be ad
ministered by the state univer
. ity library management."
What the executive will suggest
as far as the university is con
cerned will not be known, of
course, until Friday, but it is un
derstood in legislative circles that
"he -will take ample care of the
university."
Upon receipt of the budget Fri
day, the house of representatives
is expected to begin at once to
work out the financial program.
The budget will be referred to the
all-powerful finance committee,
which was organized Thursday.
Representative Frank S. Wells
of Fairbury is chairman of the
house finance group and the fol
lowing are members:
Representatives George E. Nick
les, Murray; Fred D. Maclay, Au
burn; Vincent J. Lowery and Jack
son B. Chase, Omaha; Frank J.
Klopping, Wayne; J. I. Slaymaker,
Oakdale; Emil Anderson, Minden;
C. S. Hawk, Chadron; P. M. La
Velle, North Platte, and Obed
Raasch, Norfolk. Of these Repre
sentatives Chase and Raasch are
the only republicans and Represen
tatives Wells and Anderson are the
only members who served in the
same capacity at the last term.
"I look for early action on the
budget," declared Chairman Wells.
The fiscal year of the state, in
cluding the university, ends June
30, 1933.

Do You Have Spiders?
Collins Can Use Them
Do you have a spider in your
home? If you have, bring it to the
observatory and Prof. O. C. Col
lins will put it to work for the as
tronomy department and tender
you his thanks.
Spider webs, it seems, are used
inside of telescopes to facilitate
measurement of distances between
stars, the web being stretched
across the inside of the instrument
so that it cuts across the field of
vision.
Prof. Collins announced that the
observatory would be open to the
public Saturday evenings.

as the chief speakers on the gen
eral session programs held on
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs
day. In his talk about farm problems,

get organized in order to help
their industry. Other industries
are well organized and the federal
government will not be able to
help the farmer effectively, until
bis wants are known, he declared.
In addition O'Neal charged the
Nebraska farmers with being lax
in organization. He spoke highly
of President-elect Roosevelt who,
he said, has pledged himself to
