Explnnations of the action taken at
the meeting of tiie board of regents of
the University of Oregon Saturday,
May Wl, which have resulted in some
criticism were made today through
official statements from the university
administration.
The aggregate amount saved on the
payroll by the reductions is $10,000
and the increases authorized amount
to $13,000. The saving amount a to
$0000, A total of '2i salaries were
raised at the meef.ni;. These in the
big majority of cases were for in
structors who were receiving small
salaries and to retain them here it
was necessary to make increases of
from $100 to $200 a year each. The
total increases will not exceed $1000,
is the report.
Savings Listed.
The list of departments where tav
ings were. made in: Extension division,
education, architecture nnd allied arts,
