REGENTS ACT ON WRONG HUNCH

1.I.VCOI.N, Neb., MBrch J. Special.)
Senator Cordral (favo out nn Interview
today on university consolidation at the
xtate farm, In which he very vigorously
set out the attitude of the boarding house
lobby and In which ho paid his respects
to the Lincoln newspapers for rlarepre
scnting the true situation.
iMnce Senator Cordeal made his state
ment It has been learned that the mem
bers of the board of resents acted upon
a rlsapprchenslon of the facts, when they
endorsed the McKlssIck bill, which pro
lded a levy for the construction of bultd.
ngs on the present campus. The board
was told by a member of the Lincoln
lobby that the senate favored this bill
tu tho regents desiring an appropria
tion for buildings acted upon that hunch,
which was all wrong. Senator Cordeal
said
There are some hllngs which have not
been brought out In the arguments for
and against university removal, which 1
think are germaln'to the question and of
some Importance."
Lincoln Mlnrrprtacnta Case
The statement of tho senator is of im
portance at this time, because the senate
may vote on the McKlssIck bill Monday.
Continuing, the senator said:
"In the first place I do not think the
people out in the state thoroughly under
stand the true situation. Most of their
information has been gained through the
Lincoln papers, which from purely self
fish reasons have not represented the
true situation. In fact, the Inspiration
for reslstcnoe to removal of the univer
sity, as it Is called, or to consolidation
of the colleges of the university, as It
should bo called, emlnates entirely from
Lincoln.
"It should be understood," said the sen
ator, "that the university now stands
on a, little plat of ground, where It was
originally located. While It may have
been suitably located In the first Instance,
tho city has now grown up around It
and one one side are tho railroad yards,
where every hour of the day trains are
moving, while on tho other three sides
the buildings devoted to business of dir.
ferent sorts and residences are con
structed. I'rracnt Cnmpna Small.
Tho land upon which the university
building re erected embrace only about
thirteen acres. The buildings have been
constructed aa money for the purpose
has been appropriated by tho legislature.
They folow no uniform architectural
lines and aro scattered promiscuously
about the campus. Kour of these build
ings arc well constructed and well suited
for the purposes, for which they were
Intended. Others may be used for a
few years, but must sooner or later give
way to modern structure. At least two
of these, which are frequented by a
greater number of students each day than
any of, the others are fire traps and IX
they did not belong to the state their
use would be prohibited. These bluia
ngs should be moved without flsUy. or
kt least thefr ;uo for the present pur
poses should b- prohlbfed amWthe..bulld
ings abandoned.
Thirty Acrrn Proposed.
'The house bill provides for a half
mill levy to bo mado for a period ot
six years and contemplates tho purchase
of sufficient land to Increase the. slso
of tho campus ,to about thirty acres.
What the land cost no one seems to
have any Idea. It Is located In the very
heart ot the city an the margin of the
business district and tho portion It Is
proposed to secure 1 omproved with
dwclllnir houses, somo of which are ot
expensive construction. The lowiat esti
mate of tho cost ot this property to the
Mate is nearly 1500,000 and the purchase
of this land must bo made before any
of tho proposed tax levy Is available for
building purpose".
The environment ot the university in
Its present location Is anything but Ideal.
As has been said. It Is flanked on one
aide by railroad yards and v.t Its front
gates aro saloon as well as other re
sorts of a questionable character. It Is
usually considered desirable In loeatln
an Institution of learning to place It as
tar as possible from contaminating in
fluences. In Other Institutions.
"The character of Northwestern unl-
veislty in Illinois, for Instance, proviaei
that bo saloons shall be located within
fiur miles of the university and the
laws of other states make sjmllar restric
tions regarding their universities.
"Common decency demands that the
City of IJncotn should clean up the front
door yard o fthe Nebraska Uate uni
verslty. Up to this time It has absolutely
refused to do so and it anems as though
nothing remains for the state to do but

I';?!
emoraUilnp Influences that now
round them.
Whnt Jttnlr Think.
"The effort that Is being made by Lin
coln impcrs to create the Impression that
the- members or the state senate are tha
only ones who favor removal and th.t
they are Alone In the opinion that tha
moral tone f certain parts of the city I
bad Is borne out by statements made by
the country press of the state, as evi
denced by an article appearing last week
In the Albion Argus, published by a
man who had two children graduated at
the state university, one of which Is
now a teacher therein, and a third, who
la now a student at the Institution and
knows whereof he speaks. The article
reads:
The state should refuse to accept a
cent from the Lincoln people who expect
to get back what they pay by squeezing
It out of the students. The charges or
the landlords, restaurant, operators and
those catering to the students have been
extortionate and a disregard- for the
health and comfort of tho young people
has been too plain In many Instances.
Students coming from comfortable honvM
tiave been obliged to pay cxtnrtlona'e
prlcen for rooms In old shacks of house
that are badly lighted, ventilated or
heated. Having night study, a small
saving may be made by giving them the
smallest possible electric light lamp, Jul
a year ago the student population wjb
compelled to drink water that had per
colated through cess pools and closets
that had been used by peoplo sick wltn
typhoid fever. Ilegardless of the plain
evidence that the water was contami
nated, the authorities persisted In not
believing anything was wrong with tho
water, and, an It wan tho cheapest water
to be had. Its use was compulsory.
If the Lincoln people desire to do any
thing to attract the trade ot the out of
town students, they might do a humane
act by proviain Better quarters anu iou
at reduced cost to the students, ailing
that, the state should provide dormitories.
If the city of Lincoln Is permitted to
bear a portion of the expense to pro
vide more ground for university exten
sion, many of them will look upon It as
so much blod mnev Dld and will Intilt
upon having It back from the victims.
Moral Tone of City.
As nn Illustration ot the sordid con
sideration which seems to Influence the
authorities ot the city of Lincoln may be
mentioned the fact that a few months
ago a street fair and carnival was
licensed to use the public- thoroughfaro
beneath the windows of the woman's
university building where hundreds ot
girl students have their home and on
the main street leading from the uni
versity and only a block therefrom, over
the protest ot the authorities of tho
state university.
if It were a. question of removing the
state university bodily from Lincoln one
could understand the agitation of her
people, but the plan merely Involves the
transference of its activities from Its
present location to another location
within the city at the state farm, a dis
tance of only two miles where the state
already owns half a section of land
ample on which to build n great sohoot
nnd where moreover the state now has
a nucleus for a new plant In the form
ot three splendid buildings which are In
part a portion ot the university and
where without the expenditure of a cent
for land tho regents can go at once to
the task of ptlttlnir up ihe buildings
which will be needed.
.State Lose Nothing,
'The stato will still own the down
town campus and the buildings there
that aro of valuo can bo used for other
departments ot the state government
for which thore Is now Insufficient room
In tho caplol building. The supreme
court and state library can be moved to
one of these iultdlngs. the food commjs-
sion to anoiner and tne state railway
commission which has been divided, one
department being housed outside the cap-
Itol building, may be tenanted In the
third. Tho law school properly should
be In close proximity to the Mate su
preme court and the stato library and
could remain in its present quarters, re.
cently erected for Its use. This would
relieve the prtssue in the capltol build
ing and should postpone for probably
twenty years at least tho necessity of
constructing a new state house at an ex
pense ot several million ot dollars, which
Is being agitated by the Lincoln people.
"It Is charged that many of the- mem
bers ot the legislature who are In favor
ot consolidation are not sufficient con
versant with the facts to pass intelli
gently upon the question. Bo far as I
am concerned, and think the same Is
true of nearly every other member of
the senate, I have mado an Investiga
tion on my own account. I have also
been influenced by the report of the
Joint committee appointed two years ago
to go Into this matter. I feel also that
tht recommendation of the chancellor
and the board of regents, made with a
thorough understanding of local condi
tions and after an Investigation ot other
illlar institutions, should have weight
with those with whom the responsibility
ot deciding this question lies.
No Time for Sentiment,
"One ot the arguments used against
consolidation by a portion of the alusinl
ot the university Is that the ground upon
which the school was founded and now
stands Is made sacred because of the as
sociations of the past and that therefore
the university should remain where It
Is.
"I cannot believe that the members of
the alumni, for purely sentimental rea
sons, who have received from the Insti
tution all It could give them In the pat.
would seek to deny to students ot the
future the advantages that a modern edu
cational plant could furnish them.
"Did you ever stop to think that peo
ple who live outside of tha state who
might be traveling through Lincoln on
any of our railroads, would never know
that Nebraska had a state university ai
far as personal knowledge Is concerned,
for located it Is, It is never seen by
a traveler, while If It was located on the
hill at the state farm It would stand as
a monument, to be seen by all, to the
great educational system ot Nsbraska, of
which every cltlten la proud.
"Another argument used to tnftuencu
members of the senate to support thi
bill from the house, which provided for
extension of the present campus, was
that the house having spoken on the sub
ject, legislative courtesy demanded that
the striate should conform to the views
of a majority of. the lower body. It
should be remembered that before the
house Vecorded Its sentiments on the mat
ler, that the senate by a vote of over
two to' one, had declored for removal
and consolidation on the farm, and there
fore from a legislative courtesy stand
point, the house should have concurred
In the action of the senate."
"In conclusion." said Senator Cordcal,
T desire to say that whatever the out
come, the events should prove that tht
best Interests ot the university were con
served, and that In Its present crisis It
will be believed that the members of the
legislature, whatever their attitude, hava
only the good ot the greatest educational
institution in me state at heart.

CANTEEN TALK IS USELESS
Major General Witherspoon Says
Agitation Should Be Stopped.
GREATER EFFICIENCY NEEDED
I'rlriKln of the Army Should Direct
Their Unemlea Toirnrd Secur
ing; Adequate, Well
Trained Force.
(From a Staff Correspondent).
WASHINGTON. March 9 -(Speclal).-A
new slant on tho restoration of the
canteen In the army was given by Major
Uencral W. W. Witherspoon, assistant
chief of staff, today during a frank dis
cussion of the pressing need for an army
reserve which many officers are urging
with alt their force.
"We should stop this useless effort 40
restore the canteen and gtve our atten
tion to something practical, like efficient
organization and equipment of the
army," remarked Major General Wither
spoon, while several men wero discuss
ing military matters. "Whatever opinion
we have about Che canteen the fact re
mains that congress will not restore It,
and we should concentrnte our attention!
upon the unpreparedncta of the army to
meet a sudden emergency requiring (rood
troops that are well trained and officers
who have had experience In handling mil
itary units In tactical organization.
31 lad I reeled ISneriry.
"In my opinion we have wasted years
and reams of paper writing about the
advantage and necessity for restoring the
canteen at army posts, when we would
have been better engaged In pointing out
the necessity for actual military train
ing, and for creating an army reserve
that will mean something In time of
war, and which will put us In a position
to meet a sudden call to arms, for we
all know that the United States has
never been prepared In any ot the wars
that we have fought.
"We may, and many of us do, be
Jleve that the canteen at army posts
would be an Improvement over the pres
ent system, but It Is a more practical
matter to bend our energies to obtain
ing a more efficient and economical ad
ministration of the army, by having It
concentrated so that Its regiments will
be assembled, Its brigades formed, and
divisions organized preparatory to war,
so that the officers and men may know
the meaning ot real military duty and
training and thus be prepared for the
duties for which the army Is maintained.
Agitation Should Find.
"Year after year the reports of officers
have much to say about the canteen.
And all this time the recommendations of
commanding officers and secretaries of
war on this subject have been Ignored
by congress, evidently because- the senti
ment pf the country has been averse to
the canteen, and because there Is a be
lief among the prohibition advocates that
the canteen was Inimical to temperance.
We have, therefore, been getting nowhere
with canteen restoration. On the other
hand I believe that there Is a sentiment
In this country In favor of a well trained,
adeauate. and efficient army, not an
army In name, scattered far and wide,
without officers of experience In hand
ling large bodies ot troops and men only
partially under drill and dlspllne.
"The American people do not ask for
n inrirn nrmv. but they want the army
we have efficient. There can be no doubt
that they will cheerfully support a first
class arm organization, Just as they hove
supported a navy. ' .
"When I speak of turning attention
from a fight to restore the canteen to
an effort toward efficiency and better
organization, I do hot mean that it rests
entirely with army officers, but it ap
plies to the friends of the army and every
part of the country. What I wouut line
to Impress upon everybody Interested In
the army Is that we should turn to the
practical questions and leavo the Impos
siblo alone."
