iessors, $4,000 to $1,000; instructors,
$1,000 to $2,400; assistants, 81 600 to

In statement last night President

say OF the trustees action:
ne salaries Of very many professors

nirhCr ihnSN ! II,
where. During the last few years sal
aly increases to the teaching staff have
amounted to not less than $500 900, but
the financial condition of the corpora
ton has been such that this action had
to be taken in individual cases as op-
portunity offered leaving the general
scale Of salaries untouched. 1t is no
longer possible to induce Young men or
young women Of the highest type to
accept assistantships at $500 a year or

fallen with particular severity upon
assistant professors. associate PROBES
Sors and full professors having the
small salary.
"lhc relief TO the teaching staff is
permanent, and covers the work Of a
lifetime. Surely no one viii bcgrudgc
somewhat larger payment in tuition
fees when it is realized that this pay
ment is fer the purpose of making pos
siblc an increase in the compensation
of the teaching staff, as we'll as To aid
