NOT AUTHORIZED.
Law Does Not Permit Sale OF Ames Farm
by Trustees of College.

Dies MONIES, Oct. 5.-The board OF
trustees of the State Agricultural col,
lege asked Attorney General Remley
for an opinion regarding the sale of
part of the Ames farm for a right-of-
way across the farm, but wants another
in order to proceed with it's double
tracks it is going to build. Mr.. Rem.
ley has formulated his opinion which
is that, although the law authorizes
the trustees of the school to manage
and control the property of the college,
it does not contemplate the sale of land
or otherwise permanent disposal of it
by them. This means that the legisla-
ture will have to pass upon the ques-
ton before such right-of-way can b"
condemned.
