SHOULD BE NO BACKwA STEP IN SUPPORT OF COL
LECES.

We have always been a conservative in regard to appropri-
atoms of public funds. We have never been one OF those who
was willing to do almost anything if bonds could be issued to
get the money. Even bonds must be paid and the people must
go down into their purses to put up the money to take care OF
the bonds. No thoughtful person can justly condemn any legls-
lative body for putting on the breaks in appropriations in this
period of war taxes and other obligations that no patriotic cti-
zen can object to. But while all this is true, the legislature
would be grievously erring in taking any backward step in re-
gard to what is necessary to maintain the present status quo of
the higher educational institutions of the State. The demand
of the hour is for we'll equipped men and women, college train
ed men and women, if you please; Therefore the obligation is
many times multiplied to see that the young men and the young
women of Mississippi are not compelled to go beyond our own
borders to get that training, technical and otherwise, that will
put them on an equal footing with the youth of other states
The higher educational institutions have been reasonable indeed
in presenting what is necessary for their support to the legisla-
ture. The legislature should bear in mind the increase in the
cost of almost everything and the very great increases. too. 1t
is an ncontrovertable fact that quite a number in our colleges
are paid much less than those who perform a similar service In
like institutions of other states. There should be no pets in any
of the colleges-and we feel sure that there are nOne-and we
are also sure that t is the aim of the college heads and the trus-
tees not to lower the efficiency of these institutions. The mat
ter of support has been properly presented to the legislature
and the responsibility now rests with that body.
AS to the ACCESSIBILITY of issuing bonds for permanent i'm
provements that is undoubtedly a debatable question at this
juncture. While it may be truthfuly urged that most OF what
was submitted for permanent improvements is needed" but
what one needs and what he is able to buy are entirely different
propositions.
