FORMER U. OF N. STUDENTS
ASKED To USE INFLUENCE

Former students of the University
OF Michigan who are residing I'm the
copper country have received letter
from President H. b. Hutchins asking
that they write To the state senator
and representatives, in order that
measures seriously affecting the flu
ture OF the state institution will not be
passed. The Regents are asking for n
new power, heating and lighting plant
as the old plant is entirely worn out.
They are also asking for fire protec-
tion as there is practically no protec-
tion at present. A new science build
ing for the accommodation of the work
in botany zoology. geology mineralogy,
forestry and psychology, is also want
ed as the present condition in the old
laboratories are thoroughly bad.
The situation is regarded by the au-
thorlties of the University as critical.
Failure by the legislature to make the
appropriations asked at the present
session means not only a failure to
supply imperative needs. but IL means
also the continuance of conditions
that are interfering seriously with the
efficiency of the institution and that
are the subjects of unfavorable COM
ment and disparaging comparison in
the educational world.
There is an attempt i'm the present
legislature to limit the regular income
of the university and by the imposi-
tion of prohibitive fees upon foreign
students TO change the University
from a national institution to one that
is merely local. The bills are now
pending the passage and enforcement
of either of which would speedily make
the University of Michigan a local in
stitution of low grade and forever pre-
clude the possibility of future recogni-
tion i'm the educational movements of
the west.

Cites Need Of Readiustment.

An order just issued by the COM
mission states that the great majority
OF instances in which the rates vio-
late the law MAY be removed by a
proper readjustment of the tariffs
themselves. In this work of revision
the commission therefore orders the
roadsSfirst to readjust their individual
local rates. then the joint rates within
the defined passenger association ter
ritories. and then the inter-territorial
joint rates.
Not later than July 1 of this year
the carriers must have on file with
the commission tariffs of passenger
fares between points on their indi-
vidual lines which observe the rule
except insofar as exception has been
authorized by specific orders of the
commission.
Must Point to Exceptionss
In all cases where the roads intend
to insist upon charging a fare in dis
regard of the rule they must file with
the commission by April a written
statement calling attention TO their
applications for relief and pointing
out the specific fares on which excep-
tions are desired. This. the roads say.
will require a complete check of every
tariff in existence, as well as a vast
amount of clerical work in preparing
the statement, to say nothing of re-
vising the rates themselves.
BY Dec. / all joint fares within the
several passenger association territor-
les must be revised, and on March 1.
1912. all tariffs must have been read
justed to conform to the rule. Appli-
cations must be filed by May 1 and
June 1 respectively.

To Ask More Time.


Claiming that 1t is a physical impos-
sibility To make all the changes re-
quired in the time allowed. a commit
tee of officials representing the West
ern Passenger association is now plan
ming to go to Washington i'm a few days
to ask for an extension as well as to
ascertain the views of the commission
as to how many of their tariffs must
be changed.
Thousands of passenger as well as
freight rates throughout the country
are in violation of the law as 1t now
stands, although the commission has
issued an order that no rates need be
changed for the time being. The
greater part of the violations arise
from the situation created where long
routes meet the competition of shorter
lines at prominent junction points but
have not reduced their local rates to
the competitive basis.
General applications for relief from
the application of the law, which may
be granted by the commission at its
discretion, have already been made,
but the commission has served notice
that it cannot grant such broad appli-
cations and that the rates must be
taken up more in detail.
