Chir0practors Ask
Board Of Registration

There was little resemblance be-

examination of chiropractors in Maine
before the judiciary committee Tues
Gay afternoon with those which fca-
tured the efforts of osteopaths of the
state to secure the same things years
ago. Those old battles were just that
battles. Names were called and there
was not the slightest pretense of
friendship between the so-called regu-
lars. who opposed, and the osteopaths,
who sought. At Tuesdays hearing it
was all so different. Both assured the
committee that they maintained the
highest regard for the other, but, YOU

We have done our best to prepare
and to present q fair statement Of our
needs, cut to their absolute mimi

and because Of that duty we refuse to
give to It's boys and girls anything less
than the best training. TO present
anything but the lowest figures which
will allow US to do our proper duty
would be a breach Of faith and q dis
honest act. To fail to support these

To have begun work with the fin

Pres. Little
Addresses Committee

The remarks of President Little OF
the University of Maine before the
Education committee were as fol-
lows:
When a resolve which like the
present involves the expenditure of a
large sum of money is brought before
a Committee for hearing. it is prob
ably wise, even at the risk OF being
tedious to so into some detail con-
corning the circumstances which
have contributed to the formulation
of the resolve and which will influ-
cnce the expenditure Of the funds
asked for.
The University of Maine has ex-
perienced the same normal and
healthy growth Of student registra-
ton as has its larger and weather.
sisters of the middle and far West.
The experience of other institutions
leads us to believe that this growth
is to a large degree independent of
methods of administration or Of ordi-
nary academic standards while the
shape of the curve indicates that, for
men students approximately the
saturation point has, for the present.
been reached at the University of
Maine.
For women students, the conditions
are somewhat different. There were
at the start Of this college year 252
female students registered. Seventy
five others were in spite Of proper
intellectual qualifications, turned
, away because of no housing facilities.
A similar condition had occurred the
previous year,
This shows that at the present time
we shall not be offering equal oppor-
tunities to men and women students
until housing and teaching facilities
for about 800 more girls are provided.
This. of course, is based on four years
of IS each.
The present resolve contemplates
such preparation for additional
women students and asks specifically
for certain items in this connection.
The present resolve does not con
template or provide for any marked
increase in male students.
With these Introductory statements
we may proceed with a more detail
ed analysis of the resolve itself.
Tho requests made therein are
based on careful estimates provided
by experts. The Board OF Trustees
which with the Deans has adminis-
tered the University for the year
between DR.. Alleys resignation and
my appointment have acted with the
greatest care in every matter that
they have handled. They have had

Strong Opposition
to Two County
Court PROPOSAL

The members of the Knox county
delegation and the county commits
sioners of Waldo county put the crimp
in the earnest pleas Of the members of
the Knox and Waldo bars for a two
county superior court, opposing the
measure Tuesday afternoon before the
judiciary committee.
Edward X. Gould of Rockland opened
the case for the proponents. explain
ing that the measure provides for a
justice to hold five terms of court in
each county-1O in all-and the doing
away with the January term o; the su-
preme court in each county. The sal
airy of the judge is fixed at $4,000 juris-
diction is placed at $500 and the court

ident of the Knox Bar Association.
said that the lawyers of both counties
were behind the bill. The lawyers of
Knox and Waldo counties are obliged
to travel all over the State to find JUS
tees to hear their equity cases and the
delays are horrible" said he.
Senator Elliot of Knox conducted the
case for the remonstrants from his
county. "The county taxes have in
creased 10 per cent. and we feel that
this court would be an additional bur-
den upon the taxpayers" said he.
The Waldo county opposition was
conducted by Representative Nickerson
of Swanvillc. who told the committee
that superior court was not needed
in Waldo county. DR.. Orris S. Vickery

three main features of the act wers
that it systematized the great cues

Children's Protective Society Of
Maine, said she did not want any
thing that would interfere with the
workings of the present child welfare

is one Of the best in the country,
aside from the children's codes. She
criticized a few Of the provisions Of
the bill. saying that no mention was

no provision had been made for the
support of the children.

noon At the outset, he pointed out
That the title TO the property is in
the state, the property having been
conveyed to the State by act of the
p Legislature of 1870 and the convey
ance made by Abner Coburn, who
was president of the board of trus-
tees of the State College of Agri-
culture and Mechanic Arts, and
Samuel Johnson, clerk.
\ 81 have heard it said that the trus-
tees and president of the University
are here begging" said Col Strick-
land. II deny that. We came here as
;, 81 part of our duty to tell YOU the
I truth in figures based on facts. We
ray that according to the number OF
dollars that the Legislature apprO-
PIRATES to the University Of Maine,
just as many boys and girls will be
admitted to the University. We will
nat hereafter make any attempts to
educate 1900 boys and girls on APP
, preparations about large enough for
from 600 TO 700.
=" lie said that he did not want the
condition where any man could say
to a member of the board of trustees
that the quarters for his boys at the
University were not lit. and that a
trustee would not keep his blooded
cattle there. No more will a lumber
man say that he would't keep his
1umbcrjack in such quarters. nor
q will any say that the quarters are
not up to nose at the States prison
ut Thomaston. We must cut our
cloth according to the money we
have, he stated.
That the tuition fees for students
have increased at the University
from $50 in 1916 to $l25 today. the
speaker showed. In the College or
Agriculture. the tuition was $50 in
1916 and today it is 1925.
Col. Strickland then spoke of the
former president of the University
going to Indianapolis In August 1921.
AS there was no president then. the
board Of trustees turned the manage
mcnt of the institution to the execu-
tive committee OF the board of trus.
tees. consisting of Col. Strickland
and Hosea Buck of Bangor. He spoke
OF the visits that Governor Baxter
: paid to the University.
In January. 1922. Messrs. Strick-
iand and Buck asked the board OF
trustees to authorize them to make
r. thorough survey of the conditions
at the University. Before the COM
mittee hearing. Col. Strickland read
extracts from the report of Profess
sor Charles 3. Breed of the College
of Technology. who made the survey
or the University Of Maine College
of Technology and reported its
needs.
THE figures of the budget asked for
the university were carefully prepared.
as carefully as any budget for the Ed
wards Manufacturing Co. the Lock-
wood Manufacturing Co. or any indus
try" he said. "Our property is in
sured at 100000. which shows that

the State has quite an industry at the
university" he added
New buildings needed at the univer-
slty. he said, consist Of a new dairy
building. which was badly needed in
1917 and even more SO now; and DOR
mitory for girls, to take care of the 46
girls who are now boarding around in
different families and others who have
been denied admission on account Of
lack of room.
For the second year they ask for
enough to- finish the program OF the
second year. $3.50 for the college Of
arts and sciences. Col. Strickland told
of the bad condition of Estabrook hall.
where English is taught, saying that
there isn't a schoolhouse in the State
that is so far from being school
house as that hall. THE policy of the
next administration at the university
will be to hew to the bone: no money,
no students" he said.
Col. Strickland spoke at length re-
garding the deficit and how it had been
temporarily financed last year through
the assistance Of two Bangor banks to
the amount of $4,000, he arguing
that in that arrangement the governor
and council were equally responsible
with the trustees having raised no OBJ
