OLN PAPER DEFENDS THE REGENTS Wesleya: Doing What it s Alleged Regents of State Uni- verstty University Canmot nishing in Far INCOLN, Sept. 2 ipecial. So far as anyone knows the regents of the State un versity have taken no steps to comp with the law compeiling furnish text books to the university students at cost. or to even find out whether the law giv them that right without a epecific appro priation béing made. Edson Rich of Omaba, one of the regents, was hers last night and said he had not looked up the law In question, consequently did not know whether the regents should furnish the books. “If the students are required to pay prices that are above a legitimate profit something should be done to protect them 1 have not looked up the law to see If we ean get the books for them, but I will do it at my first opportunity, and if anything can be done T am sure we will do it, for the students should not be required any more money than they are absolutely required to." In the meantime the morning paper here n an editorfal of some length attempts to excuse the action of the regents in not act- ing by saying among other things that the wholesale dealers could not be induced to break their agreement with the retail deal- ers to sell to no outsiders at wholesale prices. Another consideration doubtless en- ters into the refusal of the wholesalers to deal with college authorities. To sell the largest pumber of books to the undergrad uate world it s the polcy of the trade to have f~ quent changes in text books. That ba retiring student from passing over his Jttle library to new coming boys and giris at second-hand rates erage college professor or lghts It relieves the monotony of teaching some, and gives the teacher insights into new methods. The talk that the wholesale dealers will not sell to the regents at wholesale prices, ®aid a student, was all foolishness. Many of the students have sent to the whole- ‘ (From a Staft Correspondent.) them to instructor de- great reduction of the retail price. Re- cently a student tried to buy a Johnson “Frame Structure.” The retafler asked him $10 for it. He sent to the wholesale house and got it for $7.50. Wesleyan Furnishes Books. Wesleyan university near here furnishes text books to the students at cost. This is done through the board of directors, of which Governor Mickey is a member. “We have been doing this for some time,” said “and our object is to save the students as much money as possible and the scheme has proven practicable.” The Stile Normal board has made ar- rangements to furnish text books at cost to the students of that institution. School districts over the state buy their books at wholesale prices. As for the frequent change In text books that matter is en- tirely in the hands of the Board of Regents. “From the editorial in the morning paper,” sald a student, “the question has arisen ‘whether the university s run in the in- tereat of & couple of book stares or in the interest of 2,500 students.” And ft is beginning to look as though the university Instead of being & place where poor young men and women could get an eduaction was fast developing into a rich man’s school. A student has figured that the average cost ta students for text books and supplies, and text books, so the courts have decided, include all school supplies, 1s 20 a year. For 2,500 students this would mean an annual expenditure of $66,000. At the lowest estimate 25 per cent of this is profit. This would mean 3250 a year in profit, most of which goes to two book stores-in Lincol. If the regents would run their own book store, employ men to do the work, rent & room and pay all ex- penses it would not cost them more than $2.500, leaving a clear profit of $10,000 that would be saved to the students and not a cent would it cost the state. Just twice the salary of the chancellor is gobbled up every year by the book dealers. What makes the action of the regents more deplorable is the fact that an officer | of the university Is interested in one of the book stores besides drawing a salary for his work from the university, getting the enormous profit out of the students. Upholds Dental Board. The action of the State Board of Health in revoking the license of Dr. 8. E. Wors- ter of Omaha to prevent him from practic. ing dentistry has been upheld by Judge Holmes of the district court. Dr. Worster was charged with unprofessional practice, such as plugging sound teeth and such like ald incidentally it is sald the doctor ad- vertised too much. When the board re- voked the doctor's license he promptly took the matter to the district court and now says .Wm!- have a trial of it in the su- Pinal Notice te Lessces.
