REGENTS EXPECTED TO
ENLARGE FORESTRY BRANCH
Prof. Roth Has Been Handi-
capped by Lack of Facilities
at u. of NJ.

ANN ARBOR, Mich, April 24.-ln
view OF the fact that Hilbert Roth
has agreed To remain at Michigan as
the head of the. forestry school after
resigning and accepting the chair OF
forestry at Cornell IL is expected that
the board OF regents OF the university
viii take some action at the April
meeting tomorrow looking toward an
enlargement OF the facilities OF the
school
At the time Professor Roth resigned
70 accept the chair OF forestry at Cor
nell IL was known that the salary
offered by the Cornell school was not
the attraction. Professor Roth had
long been dissatisfied with conditions
here. his work being limited by the
lack OF proper facilities, and II is sup
posed that promise of improved con-
ditions is responsible Tor his decision
10 remain at Michigan. Professor
Roth Is one OF the real big men inter
ested in forestry In this country, ana
his work at Michigan stamps him as
one of the foremost educators in this
important branch. When he came TO
Michigan the class in forestry num-
bered four. and at present there are
over 200 forestry stuuents here.
Michigan forestry students are scat
tered all over the country wherever
scientific forestry is practiced, and
the demand for men who have grad
uated from Michigan is always in
excess OF the supply. II is believed
that the regents have plans for a re-
organization of the department, in
GLIDING additions in the way OF new
quarters which will enable Professor
Roth TO carry out plans long cherish
ed by him, and make OF the Michigan
Forestry department the leader in
schools of this sort. No one in author
ity will discuss the matter, but IL is
stated that 1t was not necessary TO
promise Professor Roth an increase
In salary TO persuade him TO remain
at Michigan.
When asked why he decided to re-
main here after accepting the Cornell
offer Professor Roth had the following
to say: II cannot say definitely why
finally determined to refuse the Cor
nell offer, except, of course. that | am
much attached TO Michigan. Ii is like
ly, however, that the regents will take

doubt is that for resurfacing Michi-

Estimator Dingeman sprung sur
prise on the board, Tuesday night, by
asking the corporation counsel
through a resolution adopted by the
board for his opinion whether IT Is
legal for the estimators to increase
the salaries of assistants in the office
OF the corporation counsel. He point
ed 10 the following charter provision:
The corporation counsel shall re-
ceiye an annual salary of $4,000; the
chief assistant shall receive an an
nual salary OF $4,000; the second as
sistant shall receive an annual salary
OF $4,000; the third and fourth assist
ants each $500 per annum; the
chief clerk $1,000 and the copying
clerk $1,000"
This, he says, is in conflict with the
action of the board in increasing the
chief assistants salary 10 $4,000 and
the third assistant TO $4,000.

them to make public report to the
Board OF Health as TO where they got
their milk. He said such was a

The council adopted the resolution
introduced by Aid. Gilman and spe-
cial committee was appointed TO in

when they espied him and gave him

that the property owners had exhaust
