From New England to Oregon name
Robert Perkins Bass, ex-governor of
New Hampshire, who has been added to
the University of Oregon faeulty as a
^lecturer in economies. His enthusiasm in
regard to the west is unbounded. “This
is my first visit to the northwest,” de
clared 5lr. Bass. “I have come out here
to meet western people, and to get di
restly in touch with the vigor and force
which are admittedly western character
istics.
“In the past,” Mr. Bass continued,
“there is a very direct opposition to any
thing new just because it is new. This
tremendous inertia is usually hard to
overcome, and the process of introduc
ing any idea entails considerable prepara
tion beforehand. I find that in the
west there is a certain open-mindedness
which makes it easy to introduce new
things.”
Mr. Bass is to have courses in labor
problems in the University next term,
and in speaking of them said that he
could not give any very detailed account
of just what they would be. However,
he does hope to give the students who
enroll in these courses an insight into
present day labor problems, which he has
been able to gain in dealing with gov
ernment labor problems and the labor
problems of private employers. “I ex
pect to learn more myself out here than
I impart,” he said with a smile.
Robert Perkins Bass has been in New
Hampshire politics until recent years. He
started his political career through, an
interest in forestry and-the lumber in
dustry. and was a member of the New
Hampshire Forestry Commission. After
this he was in the legislature, and in
the year 1009-1910 was a republican
member of the senate. Tn 1910 he was
elected governor of Now Hampshire and
served in that office from 1911-1013.
During this time he worked against
trusts and corporations in their dealings
with their employees.
At the time when the progressive party
was first started the ex-governor was
one of the group of seven governors who
petitioned Theodore Roosevelt to take
the leadership of the party. Since then
he has not been actively interested ini
politics, hut has been looking into labor
questions and problems.
Factory conditions have a particular
Interest for Air. Bass. During tin1 war
lie was director of Marine Labor for
the United States Shipping Board.
Petersboro, New Hampshire, is the
home of Air. Bass, but he has brought
his family to Eugene and expects to
spent l lie following winter and spring
here.

lined his plans for the mix at a special
meeting of the Oregon club in the men’s

‘‘The mix is to he a strictly informal
old-clothes affair,” said YVinnard, “it is
needless to say that there will be an open
season on white collars. Since the Y.
M. 0. A. is to put on a movie in the hnt
Saturday night it will be impossible for
us to use tlio Y, but Villard or the
men’s gym. most likely the latter, will
be obtained. We are going to have
smokes, eats, drinks, boxing, wrestling,
and a good time in general.” Posters
advertising thp place and time of the mix
will be on the bulletin board today.
According to Phil Brogan, chairman of
the membership committee, the drive for
a record membership will be in full swing
until Thursday evening. Brogan intends
to list as active members the 400 men
at the University eligible for member
ship in the dub. Membership dues in
the independent men’s organization are
fifty cents a term, not to be collected
during the winter term unless absolute
ly necessary. Glen Walkley. Roy Veatch.
