This ratio Is to obtain tor tne ilrst year the fund Is aval. able, after which it may be changed by the state board, which consists of tne governor, the secre tary of state, slate treasurer and the presidents of the respective Institu tions, if any rearrangement Is deemed necessary. The taxable property within the state at present is approximately I9SU.0U0.000. Under the millage system a .7 tax would make the fund available (or the support of the school), of something over $600,00 annually. To assure maintenance of the Institutions and payment for the construction of any buildings neces sary for the construction of any bul.d ings necessary before the tax fund Is available In January. 1914, the committee decided to stipulate that the present appropriations be contin ue! until the tax fund Is In the hands of the state treasurer. The passage of tne proposed meaa- pure would cancel all other appropria tions for the schools, and leave them dependent exclusively on the tax for their operation and for the construc tion of new buildings, or. any other line of expenditure. In short, the proposed bill will give each Institution a permanent annual fund, and its governing officials an opportunity ta make their plans for the future with assurance of means to carry them to completion. Only one objection lo the proposed division of the tax fund was made at the meeting. President Campbell declared an equal division, but after the matter had been thoroughly dis eased the committee decided that the present figures should stand. The annual standing appropriation for maintenence of the university is 1125.000. and for the O. A. C. 1150. 000. These appropriations do not in clude funds for new buildings or oth er Improvements of similar nature. The meeting was called by Gover nor West early in the week and was an outgrowth of the Joint meeting of the regents of the two Institutions at Salem two weeks ago. which conven ed at the call of the governor to con sider the question of providing sup port for the schools. At the Salem meeting a joint commitee representing them was appointed. "The proposed Initiative bill, pro viding for a millage tax. if It is pass ed next November, will certainly mark an epoch in the progress of higher education in Oregon." said Judge Bean. "With Its passage, the ques tion of appropriations will be taken out of politics, and the two Institu tions will have an opportunity to grow unhampered and expand as the state expands- The measure Is directly on the lines suggested by the State Grange at Roseburg recently, which declared for a millage tax. The regents -of the schools like wise concur In" the opinion that the proposed system Is the best. Politics always has stood In the way of any comprehensive, far reaching plan to build up the university and the ag ricultural college. The very fact that the regents of the two institutions were uncertain as to what treatment their respective appropriations would receive at the hands of the legisla ture effectively killed any scheme to build on a permanent plan. "Now if the proposed measure Is passed, opportunity will be given to Thoy'ro On! May 24, 29, and Almost Every Other Day Throughout Summer Months. Rales lo iha Eas!
