PENS C.1.0. HEADS-DIES Washington, Dec. 4.

Dies said hundreds of men went from prison cells to CIO union Jobs after they had "seen the government yield disgrace fully at the time of the sitdown strikes," The Texan shouted that this had been a "mass inva sion of CIO unions by crim inals." The chairman listed offenses witch which he said the 20 per sons he cited had been charged as: Petty larceny, grand larceny, burglary, (rand theft, carrying concealed weapons, assault and battery, robbery, white slavery, holdups, conspiracy, attempted arson, receiving stolen property, felonious assault, extortion and forgery.

Ore., Dec. 4. ) Oregon State college la not seeking to extend its courses beyond the recognized field of land grant colleges as defined by law, nor is it engaged in controversy with any institu tion. So read a statement issued today by college administration officials in answer to an address last Friday by R. C. Groesbeck, Klamath Falls, a member of the state board of higher education. The statement points out that the original law defining the scope of land grant colleges, partially quoted by Groesbeck, requires that the federal funds be used for colleges "where the leading object shall be, with out excluding other scientific and classical studies and includ ing military tactics, to teach such branches of learning as are related to agriculture and the mechanical arta in order to tiro mote the liberal and practical education of the industrial classes in the several pursuits and professions of life. Change Cited "So long as the state of Ore gon maintained the unified plan of curricular offerings, where each institution was not intended to be complete in itself, Oregon State college at no time asked for a single course in vio lation of this policy," the state ment continued. "With the abandonment of that unified curricular plan at Ashland October 28, the state college is duty-bound to con form to the new policy of the board by moving to bring the instructional service at Oregon State college in line with that of similar institutions, but adapted to the specific educa tional needs of the state," the statement went on. Oregon State has nine major courses compared with an aver age of 12 for the other 11 land grant institutions in the west, college officials said. All of the largest institutions give majors in business or social science or both, they said. These facts do not bear out Groesbeck's state ment that "the college had bet ter do Its Job within Its own definition before it begins to interfere with the university." the statement added. It further added that the college has never attacked any other institution, has never asked that any work at any other institution be discontinued.
