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."

Indication President Roosevelt had

bility eventually, administration of

position one way or the other, de
spite the rapidly growing agitation

SAN PRANCIHCO. Nov. 14.-r-(AP
Federal Judge Frank II. Kerrigan to
day ordered dismissed for lack of
prosecution the libel ault brought
here In federal court against Wil

Francisco Examiner by Bishop James
Cannon, Jr., of the Methodist Epis
copnl church south, in which he
asked 11,100,000 damagea for publi
cation In x Hearst newspapers of al
leged libelous statements.
The churchman, who set forth In
his complaint In 1030 he had been
for 30 years member of the execu

SANTA FE, Nov. 14. P) Elimin
ation of loss of life and destruction
of property In grade crossing acci
dents through elimination of grade
crossings was advocated before the
American Association of State High
way Officials here today,
'The planning and carrying out of
an accelerated program of grade crow
ing elimination must receive Increas
ing attention In the future," said T.
H. MaoDonald, chief of the bureau
of public roads In Washington,
Gov. Henry H. Blood of Utah, In a
paper read to the convention In hi
absence, said the saving In human
life and In property lost In such acji-
dents would be worth the cost of
complete grade crossing separation,
and added, "Should It not be a fed
eral program with 100 per cent fed
eral funds?"
The growing need for footpath and
sidewalks adjoining the major high
way system was emphasized by Mac
Donald, along with the Increasing de
sirability for bCAUtlflcatlon of arterial
links In the highway system. -
MacDonald said that more difficult
decisions are be in; approached as
each additional mile of highway Is
improved.
"Future extensions of Improvement
will be In a class of roads on which
there can be expected no such growth
of traffic following the Improvement
as we have experienced on the roaas
with which we have hitherto been
dealing," he said. "All the facte at
our disposal Indicate that the fur
ther extensions of improvement must
enter the class of land-service roadi,
as distinguished from the general-use
highway with which we have been
concerned In tho past."

Singh. 245-pound Hindu, demon

all the clever and spectacular twists
