what the 1923 legislature did to the

Of them cover the same subject, and it

Gov. Blaine hasn't signed a half
dozen of the measures, and his approx

The most important measure still

Birge Not Worried
Over Bills Failure
(By United Press)

Madison, Wis.-President E. A. Birge
of the University Of Wisconsin is not
worried over the failure of the recent
legislature to agree on and pass an APP
preparation measure to finance the in
stitution for the next biennium
Although failure to provide for the
university is without precedent in Wis
consin legislative annals, President
Birge does not believe that inability of
the two houses to get together on the
proposition will result in any detriment
to the university or its program for
the next two years. He is of the opin-
ion that if the senate which is still in
session does not pass the bill as APP
proved by the assembly, with the sur
tax feature, the Legislature will recon
vene in special session and pass. an
adequate appropriation measure before
the university is Inconvenience by
lack of funds.
Whether or not the bill should be
stripped Of the provision which speci-
fies that the 100000 appropriation
shall be raised by surtax on incomes,
which constitutes the point of differ
ence between the two houses, is for the
Legislature to decide, Birge said. He
would not express an opinion as TO the
advisability of a. surtax.
