The college is dependent upon pub

ask what it is giving for its money
and whether the money is being in

were then presented but the one en-
phasized most was adequate funds
with which to maintain a strong fac.

CORRECTING A MISUNDERSTAND
ING OF THE INTER-cHURCH

In view of the widespread report
that the Presbyterian General AS
sembly had withdrawn from the In
terchurch World Movement, we feel
that it is due to all parties concerned
and especially to the public, TO he
acquainted with the facts, which are
these:
The Assembly passed a set Of six
resolutions concerning their relation
ship with the Interchurch in which
they first formally withdrew from the
Movement as it was then supposed to
be managed, but in the next sections
of the resolutions turned right around
and officially authorized the payment
OF $1,000000 for the expenses Of the
lnterchurch for the last year, and
authorized the continuation Of their
connection with the Interchurch on
practically the reduced and retrench
ed plans which the General Commit
tee Of the Interchurch had already
adopted, and some details of adjust
ment are now being amicably work
ed out between the Executive Commits
sion Of the Assembly into whose
charge the cooperation is placed, and
the Executive Committee Of the Inter
church. For this renewed coopera-
ton. on the new basis, the Assembly
appropriated 100000 for the coming
year, for the current expenses only.
This statement is authoritative All
other church bodies which have met
this season have fully endorsed the
Interchurch and continued their Of
ficial cooperation.

way commission.
"All of this means more engineering
related to South Dakota needs and
closely related to agriculture. 1t re-
quires, too, in a certain sense, the soil
minded student rather than the math-
ematics minded student. Owing to re-
stricted budgets very little expert

been possible This department Of

and is destined to grow rapidly and
