To the Editors of the Crimson:

Undoubtedly the membership of the Union would be larger at five dollars annual dues than at ten, but in estimating the possible receipts, mentioned in Tuesday's CRIMSON, the committee neglected to consider two other possible sources of income. The musical clubs and the Pierian Sodality, during the year, might each give at least one concert, the proceeds of which could be devoted toward reducing the annual expenses of the Union. Then, as there is plenty of talent among us, an annual play could be produced. The date of its performance could be arranged so that it would not interfere with the various club performances. For instance, it might be produced in December, just before the Christmas vacation, as the latter plays come in the spring. The various parts of the play could be open to competition, as those of the Cercle Francais and Deutscher Verein, thus maintaining the good feeling of the University at large. The proceeds of the musical club concerts and this annual play would in a short time establish a capital, the interest of which would at least lessen the expense to students if not entirely abolish it in time.
