"My experience among young
people convince me that any 6.000
students in the University of Ne

physically, mentally, and spiritu
ally than any 6.000 in the city of
Lincoln," said Rev. L. VV. McMil
lin, university student pastor in a
talk before the Cosmopolitan club
at the Lincoln hotel Friday noon.
"There is every reason to be
hopeful for our young people in
the future," he said. Rev. McMil
lin, who is the pastor of the Uni
versity Episcopal church, told of
many experiences with students in
the university. He declared that
much more good could be done for
students by getting acquainted
with them than by teaching reli
gion to them all the time.

O The heaviest actual deduction
in
appropriations was recommended
for the college of arts and sciences
with a suggested cut of $105,151.
The library took the greatest pro
portional reduction of 33.3 percent,
a cut which amounts to $1-1,736
below its present appropriation.
The college of arts and sciences
deduction amounted to 30 percent.
The college of agriculture re
ceived the lowest proportional
slash, 7.6 percent, which amounts
to a cut of $17,036.
Maintenance Slashed.
The proposed cut recommended
in the committee's report is to af
fect the salaries of employes in
the various departments. The com
mittee also recommends an addi
tional cut of $150,000 in the maint
enance fund. The decision of the
committee in connection with this
reduction was arrived at after dis
cussion with university officials,
who informed the group that as an
emergency measure a large por
tion of this reduction could be
made without crippling the uni
versity. The proposed schedule of salar
ies contemplates a considerable
reduction over the present pay
roll. The committee believes that
all salaries exceeding $1,000 per
year should be cut, and does not
favor any considerable elimination
of positions so as to maintain the
higher salaries at their present
levels.
Savings affected by salary re
ductions or elimination of posi
tions or unnecessary activities are
not to be absorbed by other activ
ities, the report states.
Should be Self-Supporting.
The reduction in funds for the
graduate college was recom
mended with the suggestion that
fees might be raised without undue
hardship being worked on anyone,
and that this college department
can be made .self-supporting. The
committee found that the majority
of tho.se registered in this college
are capable of earning substantial
salaries and that they should be
required to assume the cot of
further education.
Abolition of the rural el.-ctnfiea-tion
research engineer was recom
mended in the rcp-irt concerning
the college .f engineering. No ap
propriation for his salary was
recommended because the position
seems to be rather an unnecessary
item at the present time, the re
pot t reads.
Ag College Could Save.
Additional savings can be ef
fected at the college, of agricul
ture and vet n-t impair seriously
the activities of this college,
members of the committee stated
in the report.
The committee visited the col
lege of medicine and University
hospital and espressed the opinion
that it would not be advisable to
curtail verv greatly the activities
of this department. "'The manage
ment is most efficient and eco
nomical, and the service that this
institution renders to the state
during these times are of incalcul
able value." the report states.
