D., Jan. 25.—(P)— Appointment of a committee to pro- tect and advance the interests of newspaper publishers in North Da- kota when enactment of legislation affecting the industry is attempted was recommended at the state press association convention here today by and association president. At almost every legislative session changes are sought in laws that would affect the newspaper puplisher and he has no one on hand to put up the other side of the argument, Mor- ris said. Often legislation enacted to compel legal publican on certain matters is repealed, thus destroying @ public safeguard and a source of revenue to the newspaper industry, he said. Morris pointed out the need of fur- ther legalized publication, as for in- stance after a primary election where @ summary instead of an abstract of vote cast is published. “The canai- date for office and all his friends, which, multiplied by all offices and all friends equals everybody, know that the abstract would be worth its cost of publication for the story it would tell in regards to the forthcom- ing fall election,” he said. “Another item is that of publishing personal property assessments in newspapers nearest or in the subdivision. This | Publication would work wonders to- ward @ more equitable assessment, and would be, as proven in other states, @ good collection medium.” New York.—Federal Judge Bondy has under consideration a motion to strike from the list of jurors the name of John Harriman, cousin of the late E.

UNIVERSITY WANTS ing Journalism; Fund to Start Ready Grand Forks, N. D., Jan. 25.—()— Request that the North Dakota State Press association indorse a proposal to install a small printing plant i the University of North Dakota Provide for the better education of journalism students was made at the Press convention here today by F. E. Bump, jr. Read of the university Journalism department. Most graduates of the journalism school go into the weekly newspaper field, Bump said, and it would be de- sirable for them to have as a back- ground some knowledge of the prob- lems peculiar to a newspaper plant. When a university graduate goes to work in the country weekly field he should have a knowledge of ordinary shop methods and practices which will enable him to work more smooth- ly and quickly into the work, Bump |said. ; Delta Chi, national professional men’s journalistic fraternity, established a fund with the idea that it would be pent when it reached sufficient size, purchase a small printing plant for use in printing the Dakota Stu- dent, campus newspaper. This fund now Pontains $2,000, enough to cover a down payment and installation costs of a small printing plant to cost between $6,500 and $8,- 000. The income from printing the student newspaper would be sitet to take care of future payments and the salary of a printer or part-time printer who wade have charge of the shop, Bump He pucedermy that no job printing would be done in the plant and that it would be used only for instructional purposes and to print the student newspaper.
