BEING TAKEN UP
No Meeting viii Be Held But
Defect in Statehood Bill viii
Be Remedied if Work Can
Do It.

The matter Of the University OF New
Mexico land appropriation in the
statehood bill which as the bill now
stands is an unjust discrimination
against the school on the hill has
been taken up in a quiet way through
the most effective channels by the
university regents and other influen-
tial persons and it Is believed that
the appropriation will be- SO increased
before the bill goes through as to
make the acreage granted to the
Varsity what IL ought 20 be as COM
pared with the other schools.
II was enormously stated yesterday
that the university fails to gc5~rhc
saline lands granted 1t by congress
because of the action OF the territor-
ian land commissioners. The Varsity
fails 60 get practically all the saline
lands Ia the territory through n rul-
ing OF the land office department In
Washington which so interprcts the
congressional act as To cut down the
'Varsits's share of these lands 20 prac-
tically nothing.
