UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
COLLEGE FACULTY SAYS
“NO” TO DEAN BUTLER
(Continued from page 1)
and Pottery, the School of Fine Arts will take rank with the first schools of the country.
"Further information can be secured by addressing HAROLD L. BROWN, Dean, LAWRENCE, Kans."
A copy of the petition being circulated, follows
"To the Chancellor,
"The Board of Administration, and
To the Senate Committee on the Assignment of Departmental Quarters:
" those members of the College faculty whose names are hereto subscribed desire, respectfully but urgently, to request that temporary quarters be assigned to the music department of the School of Fine Arts in New York. First please there to be the transfer of College departments to the building soon to be erected.
"We believe this plan to be wise for the following reasons:—
wise for the following reasons: "First." In the law of 1909 provision was made for the first wing of what was declared to be "for Administration—and the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences." At that time complete plans were worked out and adopted for the use of this building and the departments now occupying the east wing were settled there. The same plans provided that the west wing, when erected, should be designed and constructed for the special use of the language departments. These language departments have through the years looked forward to this declared privilege and were maintained therewith. To interfere with this long established understanding would be an act of injustice.
"Second." The work of the College will be improved by the increased convenience to students and teachers resulting from the location of the language departments in quarterstars; the work of the language departments will be improved by being assembled together.
"Third. Abundant and suitable quarters for music can be so provided in Fraser with less incidental expense than in the new building, and the proximity of the organ and the big hall would be useful. The smaller would assume an added usefulness otherwise impossible.
"Fourth. If music should be assigned to the new building it would involve great and unreasonable occupancy, and the rooms so designed, when vacated by the removal of music to its future special building, would be forever legitimate and permanent purpose.
"Fifth." Classes in music would disturb other classes much less if they were in Fraser than if they were in the new building.
"Sixth. The temporary location of music in Fraser would facilitate the creation of a special building together with an auditorium. To place music in the building is to place it there indefinitely.
"Seventh. The legislature was asked for an appropriation of

$150,000 for class rooms for College classes. This request was readily granted. It was also asked for a building for the School of Fine Arts. This request was denied. Later an additional $75,000 was voted "for the erection of classrooms in the middle school and proposed west wing," with the understanding that the University should provide rooms for the classes in music. The plan we propose keeps faith with the legislature in both respects. The College insists upon the intention of the legislature.
This morning Dean Butler was in the Kansan office to explain his "important Announcement." He stated that no more copies would be circulated and that so far only 200 had been sent out.
"I wrote the announcement in a hurry," said Dean Butler. "I had no intention of starting trouble. I made a mistake in not stating that the School of Fine Arts would occupy the proposed west wing instead of the Administration building. It was my understanding that the legislature intended that $75,000, meant to build the west wing, be for quarters for the school and for Arts and may estimate of rooms was based on the rooms in the present Administration Building which will be the east wing of the completed Administration Building. The twenty practice rooms mentioned were intended as temporary affairs six by nine feet in size in the basement."
Let us figure on that next banquet.

TO THE MEN AND WOMEN OF LAWRENCE
As the day is drawing close on which the electors of the city of Lawrence will cast their ballots in deciding who shall represent them for another three years as Commissioner of Streets and Public Utilities and being a candidate for that office and asking your support, I deem it proper that at this time I go on record on some of the things for which I stand.
In the first place, I am not primarily attracted to the office on account of the salary it pays. One Thousand Dollars per year, but rather that I may be of service in helping make Lawrence the kind of a town that I think most of us are agreed it might and should be. I am and always have been in favor of a greater Lawrence. By a greater Lawrence I mean a greater city in name, population, influence and prosperity. To further this it is necessary that each and every citizen of the city give their unqualified support to every measure and to every effort that is put forth toward this goal. At this time I consider the most important question that counts as our city water. I consider the most important question that counts as our city water. I consider the most important question that counts as our city water. I consider the most important question that counts as our city water. Our citizens as well as our students demand this and no honest thinking person can deny this statement.
I stand for a milk inspection that will absolutely prohibit any milk or butter fat from diseased cows being sold within the city limits. I do not believe in spasmodic efforts in this direction but rather in plans that will secure pure milk for the consumer and at the same time encourage the dairymen in developing the dairy interests of the community.
I am in favor of encouraging the children of the city, as well as others, law and I am directly opposed to the tampering with justice by any official.
I believe that the present lack of a department of health is inexcusable and that such a department should be created at once and afterwards be maintained in a manner to protect the lives and health of our citizens and the students who are with us nine months in the year.
I believe the affairs of the city can be more economically managed without in any way bringing hardship to city employees. I feel positive that many reforms in the expenditure of money may be put into effect in Lawrence that will be a saving to the tax payers.
I favor cleaner streets and alleys and better kept dirt roads connecting the paved streets with country highways. I believe better sanitary conditions can be maintained within the city and that many public nuisances can be abated.
I am in favor o fencouraging the children of the city, as well as others, in the gardening of back yards and vacant lots, as it is not only means adding to the family income, but offers employment to interest the boys. Such employment tending to develop manhood and to keep them away from bad company and places of temptation.
At this time there seems to be a number of our citizens who favor the City Manager plan of Government. I wish to go on record at this time and state in case the citizens of Lawrence decide to vote upon the proposition of a City Manager I will if elected give my support toward assisting and giving them an opportunity to voice their opinion by petition or ballot.
I will stand ready at all times to help in any way as a private individual or official to assist in caring for the poor and unfortunate of our city.
If you elect me I will endeavor to serve you in a good careful and businesslike manner. If you decide by your ballot you do not care for my services I will still stand for the best interests of Lawrence—first—last and all the time.
Even in this rather long statement something may have been omitted in which you are especially interested and if so, I shall take pleasure in talking to you in person or meeting the voters at a public meeting.
I wish to state that my hands are not tied in any fashion by any clique or faction; that I am not seeking this office for any private or political gain nor to further the interests of any individual or individual. I would much prefer them not be restrained in any manner that would in any manner tend to restrain me from the performance of my duty.
The above is written after much deliberation and I stand by each and every statement made.
