N. Flint, chairman of the Jayhawker Advisory board.

The page rate is the same as last year. Some of the fraternities felt there should be a reduction and went before the Advicey Board with the matter. After learning that the book for the fraternity had to be published on the basis of contracts let last spring, and that a cut in the page rate would create a deficit, the committee notified the board that objection would be withdrawn and the organizations would use space at the old rate. Reductions would be made and before contracts are let this spring. "First steps in the selection of the editor and manager of next year's Jayhawk are now being taken," said Professor Flint.

Roosevelt to Use Extended Powers to Adjust Budget President Would Cut V. * erans Expenditure and Government Salaries BANKS NEED LICENSE BULLETIN Washington, March 10.—(UP) Official orders to permit recruiting of banks as rapidly as the treasury department approves licenses for them, were issued today. In an executive order, President Rosewood placed the whole matter under control of the treasury. Washington, March 10- (UP) - President Roosevelt today asked congress for the powers of a dictator in administering reductions in veterans' expenditures and government salaries and balancing the budget. Last night the president extended the bank holiday until further notice. The senate recessed until tomorrow while the house arranged for a special committee to jam through legislation. While the senate is in recess, its finance committee will consider the budget recommendations. Budget Director Douglas was completed the legislation and it was expected that it would be ready by 3 p., the hour set by Chairman Harrison or the meeting of the finance committee. Mr. Roosevelt, taking one thing at a time in his drive for re-adjustment to meet the economic crisis, devoted to them the work of the Treasury which he must be made to safeguard the nation's credit. The next White House move to follow the banking and budget legislature will be for the issuance of 1000 local issue to aid employment. The President proposed to attack *an accumulated deficit of $5,000,000,000* by 1- Reduction in payments to veterans. 2-Repetal of the furthellan plan reduction government salaries, and substitution of the brooder plan for reductions of both civil and military employees. The program would reduce government expenses by about $500,000,000. In the same tone, pensive style that characterized his message in the banking crisis yesterday, Mr. Roseveil warned that "for three long years the federal government has been on the road toward bankruffy." National recovery, he said, depends upon a sound basis for the unimpaired credit of the United States government. If the powers he asks are given him, the President declared they will "be exercised in a spirit of justice to all." TAGGART EXPLAINS SITUATION Says Roosevelt's Order Will Be Dealt With in Three Waves Banks, closed indefinitely by order of President Reese last night, will be dead with in three successive waves, and the governor, associate professor of economics. First to reopen will be the banks now in good financial condition; next will come a group of banks having adequate resources, but not in a readily unable stager the third group of banks. The first group will be opened within a short time, but Professor Taggart hesitated to define "short." It may be within a few days, and it may be several days. Professor Taggart said. He added that the second group of banks has already passed yesterday by Congress, by the sale of additional stock, probably so-called "preferred stock." "It would be difficult for a bank to sell additional of the common issue, and the Reconstruction Finance Corp. would need to find funds if it advanced money to banks on ordinary stock," he said. "It will take longer to get these banks going, but I have no idea how long it will require." The third class of banks will have to acquire an account as they without undue losses to depositers and stockholders." Professor Taggart commented on the new bank law provision for a "conservator" to aid in the rehabilitation of banks, pointing out that this involved the same principle as the corporation of rehabilitation suggested in the financial plan which he and Professor L. D. Jennings had prepared. Permission for the federal reserve banks to lend directly to industry may enable the reserve system to force expansion. Professor Taggart said.
