Monday Evening, y.. Page Two THE EUGENE GUARD 'J Si .1,1 : Mi Hi i , Pola's Double Admits Blackmail Plot REPLY TO COLLEGE (Continued from Dace one) morning by the administrative com mittee of the' university in reply to figurei of costs in the two institu tion! cited by the college Sunday. "The question at issue before the board of higher curricula is out one of relative costs, but 01 duplication of gtudiei," the university declared. "However, since the question of costs was raised by the college, the Lniver ait citea figures from the U. 8. Bureau of Education to prove its con tcnlion that "costs at the two institu tions do nut vary widely and that nei ther has the monopoly in economy. "The real question is whether there ebali be two state universities in Ore gun within forty miles of each other." the university officials declare, "wdfc cadi institution supporting two schools of education, physical educa tion, business administration, music, journalism, end ether con rues now as signed to the University of Oregon. The real question of economy is that of preventing duplication of major lines of work in the two institutions. "The O. A. C. brief tresses the low teaching costs in certain of its departments uudcr discussion com pared with the Lulversiry. As a mau ter of fact educational costs at (he two institutions are not far apart, in departments in which either institu tion dues advanced or technical work, the cost is relatively high, nnd vice versa. The departments of economics, Knglish, political science, etc., at the college, in which it claims low coals, are oil its own statement service de partment in which large classes in ele mentary work ure taught. Cost per student in such clauses is naturully low. Should the college be allowed to develop these departments, or others that are questioned, to include ad vanced or graduate courses such ns are taught at the university, the costs would mount in proportion. 'The cost per student registered tn any institution la of more significance tbun the clock hour cost in any single department; The same report cited b O. A. C. shows that in the year used in Us figures, li)"JJ-'j;t, the total state cost per student at tho U. of U. was ( and at O. A. C. was 933&UU ' and the tag cost per student at the university was snd at 0. A. (J. "Figures from tne Impartial United States Bureau of Kduoation, report for 1022-23, shows that in that year O. A. C. received from all sources 9511.20 per student and the Uni versity of Oregon $:iK).07. These and other figures bfar out the contention that costs at the two Institutions do not vary widely and that neither has the monopoly of economy. Both are actually run on an extremly econom ical basis compared with Institutions tn other states." Talk of Reaching Agreement Heard TOIITLAND, Ore,, May IS.

Ir. II. l. Kheldon opened the case for the university after the board adjourned from Pr. Sjnlth's office to the assembly hall In 1 lie school build ing of Temple Beth Israel. The board at the outset, through Dr. (Smith, announced that one speak er would be allowed to present the cfjno for each side, and that speakers following woukl be limited ss to time. I his interfered in certain degree with plans of the university, which had ar ranged to have the presnntation of the cane made by Or. Kheldon, and the argument upon the incrita of ftr brief mode by John V. Vcntcb, an alumnus of the university. rOHTLANP, May IS. Colin Hy men!, denn of the college of science and arts nt the University of Oregon, a mi on lie rd that he snd Penn M. K. Smith of the school of basic oris and siienrcs In the Agricultural college, had reached an understanding on some of the points coniiiined in (he Uni versity of Oregon protest which wns filed Inst week, nnd that they wilt file recommendations emnodylng those tin dorntimdlngfl in fiMure. lllntory, mod ern languages nnd lCngllsli, nnd nn agreement ns to future requests for bachelor degrees from the school of biisfn arts and sipnres, are covered in tho uuderKtnniling nnd remrnmen dntlons between f)yment and Smith. Details of this understanding wore withheld by Lhem pending filing of their statement with tne board. Pr. Sheldon In hit presentation de clared that the university is in no sense challenging the larger propor tion of the work In tlte college, and that the demnnda In the brief do not touch tho fundamental courses that have been unsigned to the college un der the honrd's ruling of IttKl, Hn asserted however that there ts sppnrrnt a tendency on tho port of the college to extend under the guise of permissible "servlro courses" until lis activities duplinilo thoso of the university. "The outcome of this," he said, "will be that we will slowly but sure ly build up two elate universities in two adjacent counties, with no differ ence in their services to the stnte ex cepting that one of them will have a monopoly of certain technical courses. "If both institutions spread out thin over the whole field of activity, in stead of adhering to the lines of de ma rat ion laid down by the board of higher .curricula in UU3, instead of having one scries of distinguished courses covering the full field of ed ucation, we shall have two parallel series, both of which will be impaired in efficiency." 1 He held that the college is fully protected by Iho 1!13 ruling In giving graduate work in its own linen, but that lliA grndunte school Itself with the principal clementa of Advanced work, whs assigned to the university. "U is in Iho grndunte school that duplication is mont expensive nnd the injury done to tho stato the most severe." Mncl'herson tn his talk declared that of the 'MS proposals made in the brief of the university, many are blnnket proportsln and are not suf ficiently specific to admit of accurate answer. r lie spoke of the university, as hav ing shown "audacity" In presuming to dlotnto to the board of higher curricu la and "handing down from lis su perior position of authority decision s to jtiMt how much nnd whnt sort of learning la good for anyone?" Jle charged the university with hav ing introduced undernrndnnte courses In commerce in duplication of the work of the college. "However, when we saw this done we did not presume to dictate to your board in the matter until what I re gard as a had example, was set us in the brief of the university." He criticised the course In domes tic science In the University of Ore gon ns a "paper coitrso" and sug gested its inventigtition by the bosrd. The presentation of the university's position in relation to the school of music and general discussion by inter ested nlumni and friends of either in atitutlnn, were to occupy the after noon session. The board will take the matter un der advisement and unneunce its 'de- I cision at a future date. !

With all the sublime assurance, wisdom nd authority of the JMth cen tury classical learning, the brief lays down the exact quality and quantity of economics, sociology, government, history, language, literature, music and physio.il tmining which may safe ly be entrusted to the rank and file of students attending the Oregon Agri cultural college," it states. "J.et them be taught Agricultural economics, they say in effeot, but cut out public finance, Questions of taxation and expenditure of public funds are not for common farmers or farm leaders. Why should the far mer attempt to understand the reason that it frequently costs more lo trans port a box of apples to the point of consumption than he receives for It net? "Ieavn it to the schools of liberal arts to explain why the purchasing power of the farmer's dollar shrank from ll'S In May, 1UU, to ." in De cember, 11C0." Imaginary evidence and mUlead ing quotations in the university brief were alleged. A sharp rap was taken at the uni versity's economy arguments set forth in its brief. Cost of instructions for each student by the clock hour in the in the University of Oregon spending more money for instruction in these fields than ny of the other four in stitutions examined, but it would ap pear very difficult to justify the high costs involved.' TAX MUST- BE PAID The county of T.ane wan upheld in the collection of taxes on the property between the Mercy hospital and Wil lamette street in a docision handed down Inte this afternoon by Judge G. F. Skipworth. 1 The Sinters of Mercy Corporation had filed n suit asking that R F. Keeney, county assessor be prohibited from collecting taxes on Ihe property, but this was overruled by the court. The taxes on the property, which is known as the Humphrey property, are collectible, together with all pen alties, (he judge ruled. This will amount to between $-MK) and $500. it is said. The case was presented i for trial May nnd decision reached yesterday. II. K. Slattery was attorney for the county and Donald Young represented the hospital in the case. This case was token up by Mr. Keeney, who employed nn attorney to prove the point in question. Isaac M. Wilkins of Marcola Dies Here Tsaao M.
