A. & M. HAS NO FIGHT
TO MAKE ON OTHER
TEXAS INSTITUTIONS.
(Continued from Page 1.)
of Industrial Arts in Denton County,
and of Prairie View School for Ne
groes in Waller County. lit means
that no one school can absorb another
one. There is no doubt in my
mind that the development of the A.
and M. College has been checked more
greatly by talk of consolidation than
by any other one force All of these
schools have different spheres of ac
tivity, and they should be constituted
separately and under different boards
of management.
“The resolution provides for the
definition of the spheres of activity of
each. It insures adequate mainte
nance for all of these institutions. It
is my opinion that many University
alumni and friends will support the
amendment. Personally, I cannot see
why they should not suppdrt it. The
thing that has hurt the University most
has been the constitutional inhibition
against legislative appropriations for
permanent improvements. Had the
Legislature been permitted under the
constitution to appropriate funds for
buildings, shacks, the source of regret
and shame to all true Texans never
would have been constructed on the
University campus. While this reso
lution was submitted to the Legisla
ture by a close friend and ardent ad
mirer of the Agricultural and Mechan
ical College, he nevertheless felt the
injustice of this inhibition and the
resolution as proposed by him pro
vided for the removal of this inhibi
tion.
“All in all, there is so much to be
said in favor of the resolution and so
little against it, that I can see no rea
son why any true friend of the cause
of education in Texas will oppose it.
I am mindful of the fact, however,
that most voters are prejudiced against
all constitutional amendments, and I
admonish the students of! A. and M.
when they return to their homes at
the close of school to advocate the
adoption of this amendment.
“Remember at all times that we are
not fighting any institution, but that
we are fighting for all institutions of
learning. A vvote for resolution No. 34
is a vote for the betterment of all our
schools and an act of patriotism.”

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN.
The editor of the Junior issue of the
Battalion wishes to make an explana
tory statement concerning the article
headed “Cheapside Inn” appearing in
that issue of the paper.
The article as received was without
signature, and without taking note of
the hurtful personalities it contained
or first tendering it to the Committee
on Student Publications for censor
ship, I submitted it to the printer.
The editor regrets that material of
such nature was permitted to enter the
columns of the Battalion and further
wishes to state that the article was not
published with the idea of aiming in
sinuating ridicule at the parties con
cerned.

REPAIRS IMPROVE THE
LOOKS OF OLD CHAPEL.
The old chapel will look like a new
building when the 800 new opera
chairs, which have been ordered for
seating this building are installed.
The inside of the chapel has
been painted white with dull gray
trimming, the walls have been replas*
tered where necessary and new light
ing fixtures have been installed. In the
event the Legislature grants the ?iew
chapel building the present structure
will have to be used for at least two
more years.
Handsome opera chairs have been
shipped and these should be installed
by commencement.
It does not seem possible that such
great improvement could have b'-en
made in the old building.
