Letters To the Editor
(Continued from l'u<w 2)
there are no laxatives to be
had and I need them.
“If you can yet unsweetened
cocoa it woidd come in handy
as it stretches longer and re
quires no eggs. The poor hens,
since they don’t eat, refuse to
lay. We had been rationed to
five eggs a month per person,
but since the second week in
September only children under
seven and over (MJ will get
them.
' The black market is something
awful. Did you know sugar and
salt are being rationed? 1 have
just learned all packages have
been confiscated, when we need
them most. May God forgive
them! and forgive me my evil
thoughts.’’

Defends OFCL Confab
Emerald Editor:
I have noted with interest
and with some concern your ed
itorial of Nov 12 concerning
the Oregon Federation of Col
lege Leaders.
Having met with most of the
Oregon delegation during the
conference and with the other
represented schools as well, I
was not aware of any ’purge’’
on your ideas, by the other dele
gates. In reading said editorial
I was somewhat overwhelmed
by the “persecution complex”
which seems to be prevalent
AdvrrliMmcnt
Prof to Quit
Professor B. Hard today told your
reporter that be will quit giving
twelve page tests. He went on
to say he has developed a hum
dinger of a sixteen-page midterm,
essay of course.
However, Mr. Hard said he has
not and will not quit eating Dairy
Queen* as they keep him in touch
with the academic world. If you
want to be on top of the academic
world get a DQ today.

f feel quite* certain that no
great wrong has been dolt your
delegation, other than the de
feat of several well intended
but painfully abstract and gen
oral resolutions. Thus, I fail to
see how you can determine that
“the narrow conservative atmos
phere of the conference would
not permit discussions of this
kind. Attempts by the Univer
sity's delegation to introduce
controversial resolutions primar
ily for the purpose of stimulat
ing debate were met by hostil
ity.”
May I suggest that at the
next gathering of our mutual
delegations, you bring your
forensics squad and we in turn
shall bring ours, thus if the
idea of the convention is to
"stimulate debate” just for the
sake of debating, we shall be
properly equipped.
If, however, you wish to pur
sue a plan of discussion design
ed to accomplish, or improve
an end we shall be and I am
confident that the other dele
gations shall be more than
ready to discuss and evaluate
with you, any suitable program
or ideas.
Your editorial states, quite
correctly that “there will never
be intelligent discussion unless
the delegations prepare mate- {
rial in advance of the session.”j
As you are well aware the
resolution proposed by the Ore
gon State delegation provides
for the setting up, well in ad
vance of the conferences
through monthly meetings of
the executive committee the
discussion topics and general
topics and program of the con-1
venticn.
The monthly newsletter will
undoubtedly improve comm uni- i
cations prior to the conference, I
thas enabling all institutions
to be aware of various national
and international problems in
which by your self proclamation
“we are far more advanced.”
I urge the University to adopt
an optimistic attitude towards
the OFC'L conference. The ma-'
jor outcome of the last confer
ence was a resolution designed
simply to improve, update, and
provide a valid purpose for
OFCL. Now, when achievement
of the goal is at hand, is not
the time to begin a “one man
exodus" from the Federation.
The University delegation can,
and I am sure will, play their
part in effecting a change for
the better in our Federation.

Budget Cut Bill
SALEM (AP) — Atty. Gen.
1 Robert Thornton gave the green
light Wednesday to a bill direCt
i ing Gov. Mark Hatfield to make
i cuts in the state’s general fund
budget.
The bill was approved 10-3
by the Ways and Means Commit
tee Tuesday. The bill is expect
ed to win approval of both
houses.
It meets the question of giving
the governor legal and constitu
tional authority to make budg
et cuts. It specifies the dollar
amounts of the cuts in every
agency's budget and in the basic
school support fund. It provides
for Emergency Board restoration
of cuts if the state’s income is
higher than expected

suggested was the possible adop
tion of the British Rule to Ad
journ, which allows a given pe
riod of discussion on any topje
desired. The present method, he
feels, restricts discussion except
when a motion is presented be
fore the body.
“The Senate at present bas no
concrete set of orders by which
they can operate, only sugges
tions and results of past discus
sions. I hope these rules could
enable some clarity to be brought
to the situation,” he said.
Needs Revision
Referring to his plans concern
ing revision of the ASUO Consti
tution he stated that it “needs
a physical revision. A lot of ma
terial is presently included in the
actual constitution which should
be in the by-laws, and vice versa,”
he said.
He pointed out as an example
that two sets of rules concerning
election procedures are included
in the document, one in the con
stitution section and one in the
bylaws. These two could be con
solidated into one, he feels, to
increase efficiency.
Winters also expressed the
opinion that he favored the grad
ual separation of powers in the
executive and legislative branch
es of student government.
President Burdened
“The student body president
often has too great a burden.”
he said, “and he also has to pre
side over the legislative body.”
This structure could be changed,
he suggested, by employing the
vice-president as Senate presi
dent, or by some other measure
to reduce the duties of the pres
ident.
"This change,” he added, “will
not be an immediate thing. It
would require a great deal of
study and education of the peo
ple involved before it could be
realized. But I would like to see
it worked towards.”
In conclusion. Winters stated
that he has "no political aspir
ations on the campus, “but that
he wishes only, to put his ideas
forward for consideration of the
Senate.
“I am not fostering an image,”
he said.

hold the policy of not charging
i graduates out-of-state fees.
“It Is becoming more and more
evident that in the liberal arts
fields, students from schools with
a graduate school do better when
they themselves finally enter
graduate school,” said Patton.
Quality Above Average
Kieffer said that he feels the
quality of instruction offered by
many graduate assistants is above
average “Every teaching assis
i tant isn’t a green BA,” he observ-1
ed. “Sometimes students have
taught for several years and then
return to school for a higher
degree with this experience. We
I shouldn’t be blinded by the title
a fellow holds.”
Patton said that while he did
not have the exact figures he be
lieved that University graduate
enrollment is about twice that
of Oregon State University and
is the largest in the state.
“Graduates carry their share
of the teaching load in small dis
cussion or lab sections where the
important educational point is
the contact between student and
teacher,” commented Patton.
Research Important
“The main importance to the
university as a whole is the re
search under the supervision of
apply for and receive research
the faculty which allows us to
grants.”
Kieffer said that serious gradu
ate researchers tend to keep pro
fessors more closely informed and
constantly straining and testing
new ideas.
“Cutting the graduate program
wouldn’t help anyone," Kieffer
stated. He said that graduates
