GOES ON
FUEL SAVING BASIS
stores Open at Eleven, Closing nc
Five-Iodges, Churches and
Public Gatherings Under
the Ban

Pullman went on fuel saving
basis Monday at the request of the
divisional fuel administrator. The
business houses, except those placed
on the necessary industry list, are
observing a six-hour day, opening
their doors at IL a. M. and closing
at 500 p. m. Churches, lodges and
public gatherings of all kinds have
been discontinued in the effort to
conserve the fuel supply and the
pool rooms and movie houses are
obliged to rustic" their own fuel
ii they elect to keep open.
These restrictions were modified
today upon order of the fuel admin
istrator.
With coal and wood coming in
now in quite liberal quantities and
the acute situation relieved to a
great extent, it is believed that the
first of next week will see the lift
ing of the ban and the resumption
OF the usual program for business,
churches, lodges and public gather
ings.
Mine run coal has been received
here at the rate of a car day for
the past week and coal of better
grade is expected to begin to arrive
late this week, with every prospect
that the receipts from now on will
take care of every demand very nice
ly. Wood also has been received by
the dealers in considerable quantity
and is now being sold in larger lots
than last week. when quarter of
cord was the maximum allowed to
any person.
To accommodate the farmer trade
The stores will open at 900 o'clock
Saturday morning and remain open
until 500.

FACULTY MEMBERS
WANT MORE PAY
Professors and Instructors Claim
With High Cost of Living

The members of the college fac
ulty want more pay for services rem
dered to enable them to keep their
household accounts on the right side
of the ledger during the high cost of
living era. 1t is reported that sew
eral meetings of the faculty mem
bers have been held recently with a
view to instituting propaganda that
will ultimately bring the desired re-
mand for higher salaries are expect
ed soon. A few of the more insist
ent members of the teaching staff
propose utilization with the Amer
lean Federation of Labor, a similar
step having been taken recently by
the faculty of the University of Mon
tana. Others favor purely local or
ganization, to enable the faculty to
present a united appeal to the pow
ers that be.
The faculty members will make
no positive statement of their plans,
which are only in the formative
stage. 1t is known that the regents
of the college appreciate the urgent
necessity of granting higher salaries
to the faculty members, many OF
whom are unable to pay expenses
from the stipend now allowed, but
lack of funds at the present time
precludes any possibility of sub
stantial increase until a new appro-
priation is made by the legislature.
1t is believed, therefore, that any ac-
ton taken by the faculty will be
directed to state officials who might,
through official action, relieve the
situation. There is absolutely no
friction between the faculty and the
regents in the matter, and any ac-
ton taken by the faculty will be in
a friendly spirit
It has been necessary for the re-
giants TO grant higher salaries to re-
cent additions to the faculty than
are received by some of the veteran
members. creating situation which
is not relished by the instructors
who have been here several years.
