Tax-Exempt
Properties Divided
Salem -0IPI'- The House Tax
Committee decided Monday to
draw a line between churches,
hospitals and charity groups
on the one side, and fraternal
organizations, social clubs,
and cemeteries on the other.
Both groups currently are
exempt from property taxes.
The committee has been con
sidering a bill to restore them
to the rolls at one-third value
so they would pay their share
of such costs as police and fire
protection.
The committee voted Won
day to keep the exemption for
churches, hospitals, and such
groups as Boy Scouts and
United Good Neighbor head
quarters. But it voted to partially tax
fraternal, social and similar
properties. The committee or
dered its bill amended to that
effect.
The committee also ap
proved a bill calling for a
thorough overhaul of local
budget practices.

Trends in Higher Education Noted During Meeting
Ashland - Two definite I not as qualified as we would tent. This would seem to indi-
trends in higher education of wjsn them to be. we have an
possible significance to South
ern Oregon college were de
veloped at the Pacific North
west Conference on Higher
Education at Portland State
college, recently according to
Dr. Richard H. Byrns, profes
sor of English, who attended
the conference in his capacity
as chairman of the SOC hon
ors program committee.
The first of the two
trends." Dr. Byrns pointed
out, "as developed by Chan
cellor Roy E. Lieuallen of the
Oregon! state system of higher
education in a memorandum I
circulated at the conference, is
that the large universities are
attempting to regain some of !
the advantages of the small
colleges by organizing their
institutions into a number of i
smaller units.
"Most notable of these at
tempts to grow big but keep
the advantages of smallncss, is
the projected University of
California branch at Santa
Cruz which anticipates the
creation of 15 to 20 small lib-1
oral arts colleges - similar to
Swarthmore and Amherst in
the East and Pomona and Oc
cidental in the West."
Develop Own Traditions
"Each will be encouraged
to develop its own traditions
and emphasis, and though
each college will have its own
class rooms and residence
quarters, a central library
and scientific laboratories
common to all are envisioned.
Students also will have access
to courses offered in colleges
other than their own where
close student-student and stu
dent-teacher relationships will
De sought. Colleges will vary
in size between 250 and 1.001)
students."
Dr. Byrns predicted that
SOC would have an enroll
ment exceeding 2,000 within
the near future, adding that
if the above-developed trend
was accepted, it would be
necessary to direct the growth
of SOC as soon as possible
into the formation of a num
ber of fairly small units rath
er than into one monolithic
structure, thus avoiding the
predicament of some West
Coast colleges which are tou
large to offer students the ad
vantages of a small college.
ana loo small to offer them
the advantages of a large in
stitution. That colleges and universi
ties seem to have difficulty in
keeping up with the changes
in standards, changes due In
part to the increasing number
of accelerated and honors
programs in high schools and
colleges, was reported as the
second trend in higher educa
tion.
It was suggested that "the
student of today is not the
student of five years ago, al
though some faculty members
have not realized it."
Judging from his personal
experiences and observances,
Byrns said this trend was
somewhat apparent at SOC.
observing, "Although we have
a number of students who arc
increasing
dents who
number of stu
are very compe-
cate that some reactivating
and revitalization for in-service
program is necessary."

42,500,000. The Department
estimated there are 10 mil
lion party members in the So
viet Union.
The intelligence report said
that in general there were no
startling trends in member
ship around the world since
the previous year. But it said
party membership increased
in three Latin American coun
tries. These were Chile, for
merly 18,000-20,000, now 20,
