NEEDS or UNIVERSITY.


The need Of more money for labor
atorics and teaching force at the
University Of Arkansas is forcibly
put 10y President Reynolds in q bull
lctin JUST issued today from the
press, After pointing out that ow-
ing to cuts ard yctoes in appropri-
alton bills for the last few years, the
University laboratories and libraries
have run down, broken and worn
out apparatus have not been re-
placed, he adds this important para
graph on the teaching force which
should appeal to every citizen of the
state
The teaching force in almost all
departments is inadequate and in
some departments not half enough.
For instance, one man is attempting
to cover the whole field Of biology,
physiology and botany. This de
partment alone needs three men.
Moreover, salaries are shamefully
low, AS a result the University
loses strong men every year Last
year alone we lost on this account.
seven men, Prof II Pcrdue, our dis
tinguished geologist, who was offer
ed a salary of almost double what
he was receiving here; Virgil M.
Jones' associate professor of En-
gIish; Brainord Mitchell, associate
professor OF mechanical engineering;
in the agricultural collge, the head
Of the dairy department, Carl u.
Tourgce; II +. Stephens, assistant
in plant pathology; in the entomoI-
ogy department, Paul Ilayhurst;
and an assistant in animal husband
ry James Vowel For the most
parL, che salary fhcod professors is
ad,pi the same that il was twenty
years ag, when the cost of living
was not half what it is now. We
cannot hope to hold the best men
under such conditions. The salaries
Of full professors are lower in the
University OF Arkansas than those
Of assistant professors in sister uni
yersities like Missouri and Texas.
It 10 always easier TO get money for
buildings and laboratories than for
men, but it is a truism that men,
not equipment, make university.

JUDGE FAV0RS THE RECALL
Says Legislatures Fail to Exer-
else Impeachment Function.

Chicago. April 2e.-Unaualified indorse-
ment of the recall of Judges was given by
Judge r NJ. Wanamaker. Of the Summit
County ohio Court Of Common Pleas in
an address before the Illinois State Bar
Association tonight He based his posi-
ton on that section OF the federal tonsti-
tuition which gives legislatures the right
TO impeach. The legislatures. he CON
tnued, had failed 10 perform this func-
ton, so the right now reverted to the peo-
pie.
Judge Wanamaker said that much was
wrong with the courts. What he classi
fed as the seven most serious grievances
against the courts to-day follow:
Too much delay.
Too much expense.
Too much idolatry of ancient precedent:
the more ancient the more sacred. If the
ancient condition had long since passed
the precedent should so with IL.
Too many trials and appeals, to the dis
advantage of the poor and the advantage
of the rich.
Usurpation by courts of legislative
right and power
Too much regard for rule. too little re-
gard for reason.
Too much iugglery OF the technical
pleader, too little justice for the client.
Who is responsible for this?" quered
the speaker. The Judge. the court chiefly
the court OF last resort. whose decisions
and judgments must be followed by the
inferior courts. else the judgments below
forthwith will be reversed and another
trial had.
Now. what do the people propose to
do? Simply propose TO change the jury
for removal from the Legislature TO the
people themselves"
