STATE SENATORS
TAKE ISSUE WITH
1AL
Neubauer Thinks Students
Have Wrong Idea
Of Senate.
By Cliff Sandahl.
vohmsWa state senators, insti
gators of the 'movement to "inves
iofa" th TTniverritv of Ne
braska, Wednesday took issue with
the view stated editonany m me
uvHnav issue of The Daily
Nebraskan to the effect that the
legislature and the people or iNe-i
braska may nbt get "their money's
worth from such alarums and ex
cursions." The sentiment of the senate was
expressed by Senator E. M. Neu
bauer, democrat, Orleans, author
of the resolution asking for the in
vestigation and consequently the
chairman of the committee to
carry out the wishes of the legis
lative body.
"I think the students have the
wrong idea about us," Senator
Neubauer said. "We aren't trying
to pry into their affairs nor do we
want to cripple the university.
That would be the last thing I
would think of with regard to the
school.
"Entitled To It."
whnt T want to do and what
the senate wants is to get a fair
and thorough examination or in
vestigation of the university, es
w;aiK, rcordinc expenditures.
We want it and we are entitled to
if '
The inference that such an in
vestigation might not be economi
cal a a fcrmit-ht out in the editorial,
the senator stated, "is unfair and
not true." The main purpose of
4 Via AvaminRtion would be to try
to find further possible economies
in the university's aaminisimuuu,
particularly the elimination of du
plications.
tv. nmii in the state are ask
lng more about the university than
nhr Quhrlivision or institution
In Nebraska," Senator Neubauer
asserted. "They want to know
.,k. ic Vwincr Hone with the oU
percent of the total tax money of
the state that is given to the op
eration and maintenance of the
university.
The university is a part of tne
home. If you destroy the home
there will be no university; hence
ma mud liaan mir people from los-
I.. thalr hnmejl first of all. This
can only be done through strict
economy."
Senator Neubauer said he is not
certain when the committee will
begin to function.

FAB E WELL.
The Nebraskan is almost
ready to go to press for the
last time under our guidance.
Tomorrow we plunge into fi
nal examinations and shut the
book on our careers as man
aging editors. But before we
do that, we want to take this
rreans of expressinft our
thanks for the tolerance with
which our efforts have been
received.
To the staff which has
worked with us, we want to
express appreciation for their
co-operation, and a hope that
they our successors enjoy
their work as much as we
have.
Their have been a variety
of shifting conditions attend
ant upon reign "on the desk,"
and a good bit of work, and
some disillusion. But It's
been great, all of it. Good
