PRESIDENT OF
III" DISCUSSES
APPROPRIATE
Thinks More Should be AL
lowed For General
Maintenance.

President Thos. F. Kane, when
asked this mo ming about the appro-
priation for the unive rsity, made the
following statement in regard to it,:
1.-The figures. as furnished, on APP
preparations represent a cut of APP
proximately one-third from the calcu-
lations as submitted for the total in
come needed foc the university for the
coming biennium
Il presume this is not in the way
of disapproval of the calculations, but
an attempt to keep the growing state,
with its larger needs, in times of
higher prices, within the limits of it's
former revenues.
1.-THE effect of such a cut, if carried
out, might be illustrated by u most
vital item, the general maintenance.
This item carries salaries, current
maintenance expenses of departments,
the maintenance Of buildings, with
the expenses for heat, light, janitor
service and labor.
This item seems to be cut down
$67, 900 below what it took for MAIN
tenance this biennium now closing. In
the meantime. all prices have gone
up; the cost Of fuel, as a large item,
increasing 100 per cent. The item of
salaries. as affected by the increased
cost Of living, would illustrate the
same point.
I'VE appreciate the difficult prob
lem the budget board has to meet. 1
believe, however. the people of the
; state would approve the mourning of
| debt rather thar the harnpering or
| Gripping OF its educational institu-
lions.
THE average citizen would not
think of these state appropriations as
large, If he would take out his tax
receipt and notice how small a part
of the amount is for state tax, and
how large a part for local tax"
