U. Properties In First Class Condition Washington. Feb. 10 (United Press) Press)—Cost of putting Indiana University properties in first class condition will total $258,076.43, according to estimates submitted to trustees by Indianapolis contractors who have just completed inspection of buildings and grounds. All buildings were inspected in de tail and the contractors believe nearly half of the total will be required for repair of buildings. Estimated cost of required repairs will total $124,583.83, the contractors state. Wulks and drives will require another $56*667.60, according to the estimate while wiring ami electrical repair work will take still another $56,000. The smallest essential item is that of plumbing and that alone totals $20,825. Rewiring of several buildings was cited as essential at once in order to eliminate fire hazards which may cost the state much more, the contractors stated. The budget request of the university, now before the state legislature at Indianapolis, calls for an increase of but $215,000 for repairs, which President W. L. Bryan of the University considers low rather than excessive. X The state budget committee has recommended an increase of $50,000 for repairs, nearly four-fifths less than requested. Estimates of contractors were made public by President Bryaa in an effort to show that the university budget requests cover only actual needs. o United Press Opens Bureau In Honolulu Honolullu.

Timber Resources Are Heavily Hit By Forest 1 Fires During Past Year Washington, (Uni’ed Press) Forest fires took a huge toll In the nation’s timber resources hist year, according to figures submitted to Congress by E, A. Sherman, associate Forester of the Agriculture Department. The largest number of fires in history, 8,263, occurred in 1926, destryIng 257,376 bard feet f timber. These fires covered a total area of m 22.000 acres. While the number of fires were th« largest in history, quick action by the Forestry Service prevented the damage from becoming a.t great as that of other years. In 1919 there were 6.800 fires which destroyed 3.713.903, the largest destronctlon on record. “The trouble during the past aea«on wu3 not so much In the nuiuber of fires ffecause the number Was sligutiy less than normal for recent years; but was due chiefly to the bunching of lightning fires. Most of the lightping tires came from two storms, one on Inly 6 aud one on the 12. So many fires started by those two storms, particularly the latter one, that the availibleforce of guards aid rangers was not able to get around fast euougit to keep them under control. These two storms covered practically the whole of northern Washington and northern Idaho and the western pait of northern Montana. 0 — MANY FARMERS ATTEND “FEED” ICOXTIXI ED FROM PAGE ONE) pounds.
