MOVEMENT

State College, n. M. Nov. 27.-A. +.
Barnes, dean OF engineering, of the
New Mexico College OF Agriculture
and Mechanic Arts, State College, N.
M, has been e~ndeavOEing to organize
a Southwestern Engineering society,
Letters have been received from
prominent engineers In the three
states of New Mexico. Arizona and
Texas expressing the need of such an
organization. Among the men WHO
have promised their support are Dean
G. M. Butler of the University OF
Arizona. Tucson, Ariz.; Dean s. H.
Worrell, Of the Texas School of Mines
at Ell Paso, Tex; Professor Brenne-
man, Of the University Of New Mex
loo, albuquerque; Samuel j. Bousman,

=. H. Baldwin, of 81 Paso,, proJecL
manager of the Elephant Butte dam.
and S. o. Andres. Albuquerque, chair

nected with engineering as to qualify
him to cooperate with engineers in
the advancement of professions
knowledge.
1t is planned in a short time to call

ing to be held at a suitable place al
which time final organization can be
effected.
in the mean time any one interest
