Organization plans for the new
Museum of classical archaeology
having been approved by the Re-
gents at their meeting Friday, the
work of remodeling Newberry hall
and installing exhibition apparatus
will be begun immediately, and it
is hoped that the museum will be
open for public exhibition soon aft-
er the first of January.
The new museum will be a unit
in the group of University mu-
seums under the directorship of
Dean A. G. Ruthven of administra-
iton. All teaching connected with
the museum of classical archae-
ology, however, will beunder the
supervision of the College of Lit-
erature, Science and the Arts and
the Graduate school. Prof. J. G.
Winter of the Latin department,
will be in charge of the new unit
with the title of Professor of the
Latin language and literature and
Director of the museum of classical
archaeology.
Professor Winter has been em-
powered by the Regents to prepare
a budget, appoint an advisory
board, and select a museum staff
from members of the faculty.
Museum Needed
A classical archaeology museum
has been desired on the campus for
many years as a result of the vast
amount of material which has
come to the University from vari-
ous expeditions. Although New-
berry hall is not an ideal museum
building, it will be a distinct start
which will some day lead to a large
modern museum of classical arch-
aeology, according to Professor
Winter.
Professor Winter hopes to model
the museum as close as possible to
the types of zoology, paleontology,
and other museums in the new
Museum on Washtenaw avenue.
The greater part of the material
which will go in the new museum
will be that unearthed in the Uni-
versity excavations at Karanis,
which are still going on. Undoubt-
edly some of the results obtained
from Professor Leroy Waterman's
expedition in Mesopotamia will be
exhibited, also.

CONGRESS TO DEBATE FARM RELIEF,
BOULDER DAM AT COMING SESSION
(By Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, Ifov. 24.-An
ominous silence foreshadows the
resumption of debate in the senate
on the Swing-Johnson Boulderl
canyon dam bill which lived
through a stubborn filibuster
against it at the last session to
hold its place before the senate as
the next order of business.
Supporters of the legislation,,
however, are taking heart, Senator
King, Democrat, Utah, who joined'
with the Arizona senators last ses-
sion in the successful filibuster
which forestalled any action has
indicated a willingness to let the
bill be brought to a vote.
There are rumors that the report
of the commission of engineers ap-
pointed to study the feasibility of
the Colorado river project will say
that the Boulder canyon dam pro-
posal is feasible from an engineer-
ing standpoint. The commission is
now preparing a report on theI
economic feasibility of the pro-
posal. A digest of the engineers re-j
port is in the hands of President
Coolidge.
Senator Ashurst, Democrat, Ari-
zona, who has led the fight against
the bill, is withholding any word
which might indicate his next step.
He says the next move is up to
Senator Johnson, Republican,uCali-'
fornia, the co-author of the legis-

lation.
Senator Johnson has been ill at
his home in California but is ex-
pected here by the opening of con-
gress. Under the agreement reach-
ed at the close of the last session,
the bill, which already has passed
the house, comes up on the sec-
ond day of the approaching shortI
term.
A filibuster which would hold
out through the entire short term
seems improbable of success.
Admitting that if the bill comes
to a vote its chances for passage
are "very good," Senator King is
preparing some amendments look-
ing to the development of the up-
per basin. He would make provi-
sions for irrigation and power pro-
jects along the upper reaches of
the Colorado to offer improvements
for states in that territory, iclud-
ing Utah.
"The Boulder canyon dam pro-
ject," he declares, "is out of reach
of Utah foi power and irrigation.
The water of our state is to be
used for practically the sole bene-
fit of California, which furnishes
none of the water. I will propose
amendments to help the upper ba-1
sin states."
Another old acquaintance, dress-
ed in slightly different raiment, is
waiting for the members of con-
gress. It is a farm relief bill,
drafted by Chairman McNary, of
the senate agriculture committee,
and it is to be pressed for a vote
at the approaching short session.
The measure calls for the es-
tablishment of a federal farm
board-but the equalization fee,
the cause of many a legislative
quarrtl, is missing. Senator ic-
Nary, co-author of the twice ve-
toed McNary- Iaugen bill, has
sought to follow the administra-I
tion's ideas on how to help the
farmers.
Senator McNary said that ad-
ministration support of his
measure is certain, and that ex-
perts from the departments of
agriculture and the treasury help-
ed him get it in shape. He believes
that it can be disposed of at the
short session. However, there are
