'The state by reason of the present
deficit in its funds to meet authorized
obligations, is now paying Interest
upon moneys borrowed from other
funds or from outside sources."
Serious Problem
The rapid Increase in enrollment at
Oregon state institutions of higher
learning Is a very serious housing
problem confront ins the state govern
ment. Kozer said and there looms the
probability the institutions will have
to be provided with some source of
revenue other than the annual mil
lace tax levies.
"Substantially all of the revenues
accruing to these institutions from
their annual millage tax levies and
other sources are now absorbed in
their operating activities." Kozer said.
'Consequently it follows the needed
buildings at these institutions during
the next 10 years mist be provided
lor from other souri w than their
millaee levies.
In 1910 there were about 2600
students registered in the agricultural
! college, the university and the normal
schools. These registrations number
ed approximately 5600 on 1920. Dur
ing the past 10-year period the stu
dent registration for resident instruc
tion as these Institutions have risen
to approximately 8000 for the year
. 19-29. or about 43 per cent increase
over the year i920.
i '"The percentage in Increase In reg
istration during the past few years
has not been as great each 'year over
the preceding year as during a similar
period of some few years ago. There
eems to be no question, however.
hat there must be new buildings and
equipment for these institutions to
meet the needs of their ever increas
ing registrations."
