University of Minnesota will be con-
Quoted by House committee of five
members to be appointed by the speak
er, in compliance with resolution Of
fered some time ago by Representa-
tives H. H. Flowers, P. H. Frye and
A. F. Pratt, and adopted without de-
bate.
Representative Flowers, in explain
ing the resolution, which was presented
In a friendly spirit, pointed out that
in fairness to the Legislature, as well
as to the University, facts and figures
should be prepared to show whether
there is extravaganza or negligence in
the management of the institution
financial affairs, as intimated by GER
tain members of the House.
Criticism of University expenditures
arose with the announcement recently
that an appropriation of approximate
ly $5,OOO,O00 would be required for
the next two years.
The committee, which will make its
investigation principally at the Uni
versity offices, will be authorized to
subpoenae a witness, to compel pro-
duction OF books and records and to
take any further action necessary to
make q complete inquiry.

st. Paul. Taxes of mere than
$S,S5O,000 for good roads and bridges
in the current levy will provide Min
nesota with the largest sum in it's his
tory for that purpose. The last tax
levy for road and bridges was $685.,
100. The totals are from an abstract
of county tax lists, as compiled by
M. J. Desmond, chief clerk in the Of
flee of State Auditor Preus.
The foregoing figures are exclusive
OF local paving assessments, automo'
bile license revenue and other like
revenue which, it is estimated, will
increase the total to be paid this
year by Minnesota taxpayers for road
and bridge purposes to more than
$10,O00,000. Also, another new high
record is assured next year when the
tax levy proceeds will be increased
and operation OF the new automobile
license law placing a fee of IS on
every machine will add materially to
the good roads funds.
The current tax levy for good roadA
includes the amounts to be raised for

Would Dissolve Affiliation.


St. Paul, March 9.-The bill to dis
solve the utilization of the University
of Minnesota medical department with
the Mayo foundation has appeared in
both houses of the legislature.
Contrary to expectations, the bill is
aimed only at the University Mayo al
filiation and does not prevent other
affiliations. It is understood that the
objections raised two years ago by
Dean Woods and others, that the bill
then pending would cripple the work
of the agricultural school, brought
about the change in the measure this
year.
The bill provides that the dissolu-
ton be complete by September 1, 1918,
and orders the board of regents to set
about at once to terminate the agree
ment.
