ALL ENDORSE the
ENGINEERING BILL

Dean j. {. Scrusham OF the Univer.
SHY OF Nevada returned TO Reno a few
days ago from q brief Eastern trip and
reports that in practically all sections
OF the country interest Is being stimu.
lated over the engineering experiment.
tation bill, which will be presented 10
Congress AT the coming session. Mr..
ScIugham represented the University
or Nevada at Il meeting of the associa.
ton of land grant colleges which re.
Gently convened in Washington. There
were $50 delegates in attendance at
this meeting, representing all OF the
universities of the United States re.
ceiving federal aid and also the related
federal bureaus. Their endorsement
OF the engineering experiment station
Dill Will do much for rs passage. Dean
Scrugham also attended a meeting of
committee from the National Re.
search Council In New York City. an.
other organization which recognizes
the value OF The proposed bill. About
forty college presidents, engineers and
scientists of cminence were present al
this conference. and plans for handling
the bill and details for efficiency in
publicity were. considered
The passage OF this bill would mean
that Nevada would secure an annual
appropriation of $4,000 for the bur.
pose OF carrying on experimentation
along lines OF engineering. II would
mean that there would be- an ADEQUATE
fund for investigating the underground
waters OF the State and to carry on
pumping experiments as well as an
electro-chemical and metallurglcal
work. Just a, scientific agriculture t.
promoted by the Hatch fund OF $4,000
annually. the problems OF modern en-.
cheering could be met and solved with
an equal fund. were an experiment sta
, uon established, organized along the
lin" OF the agricultural experiment sta.
ton.
The Morrill, land grant act. passed
by Congress in 1862. provided for the
establishment OF colleges whose chief
purpose was Ia be- the instruction I'm
agriculture and mechanic arts. These
colleges wcr" to be supported by the
revenue from grants Of land donated
by III" federal government for this
purpose. In Nevada the land Is known
as the "90.nrO.acT grant" and The uni.
vcrsity colleges of agriculture and me.
chanic arts are dependent upon this
lund for their maintenance. In 1857

gagged to work in conjunction with Fernand de Journel, demurrers were flied to the complaints. It took some time to thrash these out, but the court finally held in favor of the plaintiff, which means that the cases will get to trial Before leaving Fairbanks, the greatest fears that the re ceiver and his attorney had were that the defendants might be able in some way to prevent the matters from coming to trial, Mir. de Journel stated that he was absC- lutely certain that he could win, provided he could get the ca:es to trial. According to his version, the law is clear and the facts are we'll established. The suits are against E. L. Webster, John Schram and W. II. Parsons, who were former directors of the institution, and who received part of the money paid to the Washington-Alaska Bank of Washington by the ol1 Fairbanks Banking Company.
