SCOUT CABIN
 IS ALL READY

Scout officials, including Scout master in charge of Camp this year Norman Bamfield, Of the Wea- ther Bureau, and Fred Huntress made a trip to the Cabin yesterday for the purpose of moving the large kitchen range from it's location in the old Cabin to the new kitchen at the other end of the porch.
 Thanks to the KrauSe firm and assistants, Dave Burnett, Karl Wei land and Anton lille, the new con- crete floor that they poured a week before was in excellent shape and hard enough to hold up the heavy range. It was rolled into place and a hole cut in the roof for the twelve inch flue. After the flue was at tached and previous to building a fire, it was noticed that soot was being drawn out the top so there will be no trouble with draft this year.

mittee's report, there was no recon-
mendation for a reduction in the $ll,-
500-a year salary Of H. C. Byrd, vice
president, who was credited by the COM
mittee with building up the university
and occupying a position in its life
which would be hard to replace"
The committee declared that Gov.
Ritchie's 40 per cent cut in the univer-
sity's budget is "a wholesome effort at
real economy" which will not, in our
opinion, react to the disadvantage Of
the university"
Piecemeal payment Of salaries leads
to extravaganza and overpayments and
should be abandoned, the report said.
In this connection it declared that the
salary Of DR.. Pearson should be carried
in the budget as one item OF $4,000
instead Of three items totaling that
amount.
Would Limit STUDENT Body.
Other recommendations contained in
the report included the following:
The student body, now numbering
1888, should be limited to 1000, and
the university officials should devote
themselves to building up the institu-
ton within this number. rather than
seeking to increase the enrolment.
The General Assembly should approve
pending bond issue for 100000 for an
arts and science building at College
Park. because classroom conditions are
far from desirable" and also the pend
ing bond issue for $150,000 for q
woman's dormitory, because the students
should be properly housed.
Consideration should be given the
question Of combining the dairy manu-
featuring plant at College Park with
the university's dairy department.
Would Increase d. c. Tuition.
Tuition for out-of-State and Mary
land students should not be increased,

March Consumption
Of Cotton Greater

World consumption of American
cotton during March totaled
l,164,O00 bales, according to the
New York Cotton Exchange Ser
vice, as against 1,O93,O 900 in Feb
ruary, 1,171,OOO in March last
year, $4,000 two years ago, and
1,059,00O three years ago.
During the eight months of the
current season from August / to
March 81, the Exchange Service
says, world cotton spinners used ap-
proximately 9,l52,000 bales Of
American cotton as against $780,
600 in the corresponding portion
of last season, 7,254,0OO two
seasons ago, and 100000 three
seasons ago. March cotton con-
sumption was larger than Feb
ruary consumption owing to the
fact that March had more work
ing days than February.
