HIGHER EDUCATION EXPENSE TO STATE in $5,735,041 Less Spent Last'Four Years, As Com- to 4 Years Previous No Expansion Soon ' pared PORTLAND, Not, 14. OP) With a reduction In all Income of 413 per cent, Oregon' eyfctera of higher edu cation operated during the past four yeara at a reduction of 15,735,041 compared with the preceding four year period. Furthermore, no Immediate return to the level of Income prevailing be fore unification of the system la con templated and budgets are being pre- pared on the basis of the current operating level with no expansion but "on the assumption that the full In come for higher educalon under the m Hinge laws will be available." Tila statement was transmitted to Oovernor Meier by Wlllard h, Marlu, president of the state board of higher education. The letter covered the activities of the Institutions for the past two years. .Salary Equity Asked. President Marks reminded the gov ernor that the board requests that members of administrative and teach ing staffs receive the same treatment as to salary restorations that may be accorded other state employes by the next leslglature; After describing the unlllcatlon of Oregon's higher educational facili ties, Marks observed that "while fu ture readjustments no doubt will need to be made In matters of dct.nl! as result of experience and further study. It Is the board's conviction that the fundamental allocations of function are sound, educationally and economically, and should therefore be maintained." "With a population of leas than million people, and an aggregate wealth of scarcely more than 900, 000.000," Marks said, "Oregon cannot support separate Institutions each complete In Itself, according to the trsoltlons of the more populous and! wealthy states; rather, each Institu tion must occupy a distinctive field as a part of the stat system, all the Institutions together constituting a complete unity of currlcular offer ings and other functions required to meet the higher educational needs of the atate." President Marks stated that the re port on finances by Chancellor W. J. Kerr "shows that higher education haa been doing Its part In helping to reduce the taxpayers' burden." Income Cut Deep. A comparison of Income between the years 1930-31 and 1034-35, for ex ample, ahows the following reduc tions, he said: State Income only, 40.5 per cent; all Income. Including state, student fees, and other floured. 41.2 per cent." "The cumulative reduction In in come from all sources over the four year period," Marks said, "are shown to amount to $5,735,041 " He said the operation of the Insti tutions on this drastically reduced In come "forced curtailment ot some Im portant services to students and the state, and was possible only because of unified control, large salary and staff reductions, elimination of un necessary duplication, and heavy de cline In student enrollment." He stated that In this program of retrenchment major consideration was given to the Interests of students "and for the most part the standards of higher education in Oregon have not suffered as yet, even with the ?0 per cent Increase In enrollment this year over last." Marks concluded, however, that "with Indications pointing to further increases In enrollment, and with mounting costs of material sup plies and equipment, standards must Inevitably suffer !f this decline in financial support continues." Get Thanksgiving Turkeys Early Is Warning To Wives SYRACUSE. N. Y., Nov. 14. (AP) The New York State col lege of Agriculture, through Pro fessor E. Y. Smith, says "house wives who put off plans for the Thanksgiving dinner until the last minute may be disappointed this year because Indications point to a smaller turkey crop."
