I Mistrial in Hbes c NICKERSON NAMED TARGET OF PURGE
Additional Sum Asked As
Annual Continuing Mill
age Found Inadequate o
Operating Six Schools
PORTLAND, Sept. 13. ) Final
approval of biennial budget for the
state systems of higher education for
submission to the governor and eg
Islature was given by the state board
today.
In approving the recommendations
of Its flnanco committee, the board
decided the annual continuing mill
age Income of $2,294,977 for the next
two years will fall short by 1332,177
a year of operating the six lnstltti
tlona on essentially the present level.
The board Is therefore making
request for $064,354 In addition to
the mtllogc Income for the next bl
ennium, a sum which will still leave
the state Appropriations for the sys
tem 4 per cent lower than the ap
propriations for the blenntum 1929
1930 when the single board assumed
control, although enrollment has In
creaacd 6.73 per cent since that time.
Pupil Increase Cited
In pointing out the necessity for
the supplementary request the board
called attention to "unprecedented
Increase in enrollment during the
past five years amounting to 40.12
per cent for the several Institutions,"
and then itemized the proposed usn
of the supplementary funds as follows:
I. To care for Increased enrollment
200,000 for the blennlum.
2. To make possible continuation
of salary restoration for staff mem
bora ordered by the legislature, $199,
000 for the blennlum.
3. To replace obsolete Instructional
tqulpment and for building repairs
deferred for a period of seven years
because of limited funds, $200,000 fnr
the blenntum.
4. To replace funda discontinued
by the federal government for cooper
ative extension work In agricultural
and home economics and to permit
continuation of present work, $69.
830 for the blennlum.
Faculty Lnad Heavy
Tho board declared that the only
expansion represented in this supple
mentary request la the $100,000 per
year required to care for Increased
enrollment. At the two major Insti
tutions the enrollment has almost
doubled since 1933-34, the Increase
at the state college being 108 per
cent and at the university 47 per
cent.
Faculty teaching loads already far
beyond recognized national standards
was another factor cited as making
essential the supplementary funds
Total teaching staff far the current
year was reported as almost 100 be
low that of 1929-30 when enrollment
wa 810 less.

Georgians Watching
Georgian watched the Maryland
race for any bearing It might have
on their own .primary tomorrow. In
which Sen. Walter F. George also Is
seeking re nomination over the pres
ident's opposition.
An Atlanta audience, which heard
George pledgo himself last night to
combat "arrogant. Intolerable bur
eaucracy," whistled and yelled at an
announcement Tydinga was ahead.
George is running against Lawrence
S. Camp, Mr. Roosevelt's choice, and
former Gov, Eugene Talmadge. Wil
liam G. McRae, backed -by advocates
of the Townsend old-age pension pro
gram, withdrew from the field last
night and give his support to camp.
The Townsend program was an Is
sue In Maine, too. All three Incum
bent congressmen had Townsend sup
port. All three, along with Governor
Barrows, had denounced the Roose
velt administration In campaign
speeches.
The Democratic party's political
generalissimo, Postmaster General
Parley, had given his stamp of ap
proval to former Gov. Louis J. Brann.
Barrows Democratic opponent, and to
P. Harold Dubord, who attempted to
unseat Representative Smith.
Returns from 611 of Maine's 629
precincts gave Barrows 153,064; Brtinn
132,931.
Four-Sided Race
In Maryland's gubernatorial races
Atty. Gen. Herbert R. O'Connor.
Democrat, and Gov. Harry W. Nice,
Republican, went to the front. The
Democratic contest was four-sided,
and because of the complicated vote
counting system. It may be days be
fore the winner Is determined.
In the Republican senatorial eon
test, former Judge Oscar Leser led
Galen Talt, one-tlmo state party
chairman.
Voters in Arizona, Colorado, New
Hampshire, Dtah, Vermont and
Washington picked senatorial candi
dates today. In one of those states,
however, was the new deal an Issue.
Most of the Incumbents had little
or no opposition within their own
parties.
Another primary. In Louisiana, gave
voters an opportunity to ratify the
state Democratic organization's selec
tion of Senator John H. Overton for
renoml nation.
Interest in Michigan's prlmnry cen
tered in the rcnomlnatlon of Gov.
Frank Murphy, Democrat, whom
President Roosevelt said he supported
as he did all other liberals.
Political analysts watched the size
of the vote for Murphy, who had
no intra-party opposition. In com
parison with the totals for three
candidates for the Republican guber-
natorlal nomination. I
South Carolinians voted In a run-
off primary for Democratic nominees
for governor and three house seats.
