NO NORMAL SCHOOL DEFICIT

1t has been widely circulated thru
out the state that the Normal schools
have deficits ranging from $4,000 to
over $4,000 Ut the different schools.
| have been unable to find the source
of this report, but can assure the pub
lie that there is no truth or founda-
ton for it. As member of the aud
iting committee whose business it is
to know how the affairs of each
school stand with regard to funds ap-
propriated, contracts made and requi-
sitions for purchases or authority for
expenditures, | can assure you that
there IS no deficit sc any Of the nine
Normal schools and there is no out
standing obligation that will call for
any funds beyond those made avail
able by the legislature. There is now
sufficient funds from our appropria-
tons to take care of each of the
schools and no obligations viii be Gre
ated to call for additional funds.

Beard of Regents OF Normal Schools
Mr.. Henry Johnson, State Treasur-
er, gave cut comparative figures which
showed that the average salaries of
the Normal schools was higher than
at the University His figures may be
true, but without regard for truth l
could think OF nothing THAT would
convey a more false impression to the
detriment of the Normal Schools. The
probability is that someone asked Mr..
johnson certain questions and got GER
rect answers, ard used them to convey
false impressions to create the pub
lie sentiment he desired.

JAPANESE SUBMIT
1Q107 NAVY RATIO
Reported to Have Proposed
Plan to Secretary Hughes
and BaIf0ur.

Admiral Baron kato. head of the
Japanese delegation, it is reported. has
laid before Secretary Hughes and
Arthur ]. Balfour. the heads OF the
American and British delegations to the
Washington conference. the proposal OF
the Japanese that Japan have naval
strength in the ratio Of 10-1O-1. the
United States and Great Britain each
being represented by 10 and Japan by
proposal of the Japanese regarding
fleet ration has the support of the Japa-
nese cabinet and the diplomatic ad-
visory council in Toxic.
Strikes mt Hughes Plan.
The proposal of the Japanese.
which backs up the position taken by
the Japanese naval experts, strikes
at the fundamental principle LAID
down in the Hughes program sub
mitted at the opening of the Wash
ington conference.-the principle that
says actual existing naval tonnage,
built and building. must be taken
into consideration when it comes to
fixing the ratio of naval strength.
The Japanese plan is based. it is said,
on what they consider necessary for
national security. If that basis is to
the British nor the Americans would
agree to the 90 per cent ratio even,
which the Hughes plan gives to ia
pan.
L. s. Not Given Credit.
The Japanese proposal for a 10 per
cent ratio also does not take into con-
sideration the tonnage of navy ves-
sells now building. In other words,
the United States is not given credit
for the fifteen capital ships now un-
der construction and averaging over
so per cent completed. upon which
the United States has expended more
than S330,00O,000.
The members of the American dele
cation We're in conference for nearly
three hours last night, discussing the
proposal of the Japanese.
