Columbia Veterans
Hit Agreement Ending
.GI Bill Night Training

A committee representing student
veterans of the Columbia Technical
Institute last night protested an
agreement between the school and
the Veterans Administration which
will end CT bill training for about
400 veterans attending night school
on . part-time basis.
Another 400 full time day students
whose education was threatened by
tuition contract dispute between
the VA and the school will return
to classes tomorrow at the school.
1899 Vermont avenue NV.
This was allowed yesterday in a
VA announcement that it has
reached temporary agreement with
the school regarding the day stu
dents. Chestery F. Naumowicz,
head OF the Washington region
Office, said the agreement was not
extended to night students because
their tuition rates per school year
are higher than the $500 maximum
Of day school tuition.
VA would not pay these rates
without seeing financial statement
of the schools operating costs
which the school has refused to
submit, Mr.. Naumowicz said.
L. M. Hoover, chairman Of the
student committee, said his group
would meet at 7:30 pm. tomorrow
at the school with the night stud
ents to see whether any further &C.
ton can be taken. In a prepared
statement, Mr.. Hoover said is group
insists that negotiations be con-
tinued."
Prospects that classes would be
cut off for all 800 of the students
appeared certain last week when
Columbia refused to submit the fin
ancial statement necessary to get
a new contract under VA regula-
tions. Last minute conferences how
ever, brought the day-school agree
ment yesterday.
Mr.. Naumowicz said te partial
agreement was offered reluctantly"
and warned Columbia Tech officials
that unless they decide to furnish
the needed statement 1t will not
allow payment of tuition for any
new students and that it will drop
tuition payments entirely after June
17-end of the current school term.

ion.
A change in the company's by
laws, filed with the Chicago Stock
Exchange. defined the powers of Mr..
Avery, President Wilbur Norton and
the several vice presidents of the
big mail order and retail chain or
ganization.
Compared with the old bylaws,
the new setup was interpreted in
financial circles as limiting Mr. Av-
ery's powers and placing more au-
thority in the hands of Mr.. Norton
and the vice presidents.
Jim Day, president of the Stock
Exchange, said the. bylaws do not
have to be approved by stockholders.
Mr.. Avery, as chairman, remains
chief executive officer under the
amended bylaws. The amendment
lists the chairmans powers. 1t does
not state the chairman shall have
general executive authority and
management supervision over the
entire business" as did the bylaw it
replaces.
Another amendment states Mr..
Norton, as president, shall have
general executive authority over the
entire business" except as regards
powers granted the chairman. The
president also has authority over
other officers. previously reserved
for the chairman.
Each vice president was granted
