NEEDOF BU|LD|NGS FOR IA.
 OUTLINED BY vON KLE|N5M|D

TUCSON. Dec. 20.-"More buildings; that is the great need of this univer- sity today" said President R B. von KleinSmid of the University of Arizona recently. This need" he said, lis not limited to dormitory buildings most necessary as this particular need is but we should have an armory which the young men may have as center for their military activities as well as for social purposes.
 Tt can, of course. be said that the weather in Arizona is such as to render more or less unnecessary such a building. But if considered simply from the standpoint of a military center for the university. it would serve a very useful purpose. not only for the storage of arms, but also for numerous drills
 "The men are deeply interested in military matters. What could be more striking in this regard than the fact that a large percentage of the men elect to take military work in ther two last years. besides taking the first two years of training which Is com pulsory2
 Harvard University has the Harvard Union. a place where all university men gather for social purposes. This is the sort of scheme that we need here. and it is my notion that the armory could well serve this double purpose. Different bodies of men are able. in
Arizona republican., 1916-12-21

their fraternities, to mingle but this does not involve the wide mingling that would be found in such social center as l suggest.
 Then consider the dOrmitory ques- tion, and there is no more crying need than this. Our men should have them; so, too, our women. In many cases there are three students in a room. As the university grows annually. those who have to live off the campus in- crease in number. l hate to see this. I think it should be our aim to have all those enrolled in the university live on the campus, and secure the unity of spirit that comes from this.
 There should be more dormitory buildings. My ideal for a building for the women would be one which wouiu be a home for them. They are the happiest when they can have this. even though they be within the confines of the university.
 Instead of making 1t necessary for them to dress up in their gymnasium suits and walk across the campus. they should have gymnasium of their own in their dormltory where they could exercise without going out of the build ing. Then, instead of being compelled to walk across lhe campus dressed for domestic science work, they should have sufficient opportunities for this in their own dormitorV"

the corporation commission is quito voluminous and the exhibits arc more numerous and complete than in any case which has oeen before the United States courts in years.
 The testimony was practically all expert and technical in character, dealing with the formulas used in Southern pacfic's property in Ari- zona. both for interstate and intra- state traffic each classification in turn being apportioned to freight and passenger service respectively.
 The questions of earnings and ex- penses are equally as involved The first legislature Of Arizona enacted Scent fare law which was declared unconstitutional hy the supreme the jurisdiction to regulate and fix rates of common carriers was vested in the Arizona corporation commis- sion and not in the legislature.
 The corporation commission on it's own motion held hearings lasting through 1914. 1915 and 1916, wth view to inquiring into the passenger rates charged by the railroads in Ari- zona. and Tn May of this year entered an order lowering rates on the lines of the Southern Pacific, Santa Fe and ihe Arizona Eastern The rail- roads appealed the order of the com mission to the federal courts anl will try t0 show that the order en- tered by the commission does not all low reasonable return upon the value of the property apportioned to intrastate passenger traffic.
 The conference in San Francisco Is merely one of the intermediate steps Of counsel in the case with a view to systematizinS and abstracting the record SO as to bring the Southern Pacific case to an early issue. In addition to tho Southern Pacific suit there are two other suits correlated and bending in the United States courts. The Atchison. Topeka & Santa Fe ard the Arizona Eastern
 The som procedure will be taken in u.e santa Fe and the Arizona East ern eases. notwithstanding differ ent bases and formulas are involved in each of the latter two cases. It is expected that the cases will be ready for trial by the October term of the federal court in Phoenix. which in legal circles is considered expeditions. as the famous Minnesota cases were five years in preparation and the Ok lahoma and Missouri cases have been In the courts for three years and are still unfinished.
 Oklahoma considered it's passenger case of such import that the legisla- ture appropriated S7j.00 for the penscs of the litigation and have made substantial appropriations to assist the Oklahoma attorney general in carrying on the suit. II is pointed out with significance that In Okla homa there is only one case. while in Arizona there are three.
