higher education in the entire United
States are about 8 " billion per year
out of a total national income of some
500 billion. We spend for national
defense" some forty to fifty billion
per year.
We spend more money on cos
metics, more money on liquor, more
money on tobacco, then we do for
higher education. I would suggest
that we spend more money on golf
and fishing than we do on higher edu-
cation.
In Montana the total individual
income for 1861 will approximate
one billion funr hundred million. We
spend about IA million of tax money,
about 1 90 of our total income on
higher education.

SURVIVAL DEPENDS ON
EDUCATED CITIZENRY

If we expect the United States tt
survive, we need as highly educated
a citizenry as possible. When we as
nation begin to consider educated
people as much a weapon in wal
for survival as we do tanks and air.
planes, then we may begin to place
our educational budgets in proper
perspective. l don't think that higher
education is costing us too much.
1 don't think that we in Montana
ever will want to accept a second
rate higher educational system. 1t
must be operated economically but it
also must be given enough money to
do good job.
l am convinced that the best job,
both educationally and from the
viewpoint of educational oppor-
tunities for a maximum number of
our young people, can be achieved
by the present decentralization sys-
tenn.
| think it must be co-ordinated to
avoid needless duplication in some
specialized subject fields. However,
of necessity, there must be duplica-
ton in such basic subject matters /:
English, basic sciences, languages,
social sciences and others. There is
no valid reason why in the near fu-
ture all units except Mines should
not be authorized to give the basic
liberal arts degree. Graduate work
should be concentrated at MSU and
at MISC. These are our two universe
ties.
With the rising tide of students, /
believe we will be very glad we have
our six geographically separated, but
educationally co-ordinated, units of
our Montana Greater University Sys-
tenn.

For the Sake of Argument
By RUSSELL B. HART. Billings

In YELLOWSTONE NEWS
Editors Note: Mr.. Hart, president of
Hart-Albin in Billings, was charm an
in 1855 of the Montana State White
House Conference on Education, and in
1858 he served on the Montana Gov
ernors Committee on Education Beyond
4 High School. He is &c member of the Ad-
viSory Council of Montana State Col
lege, the Advisory Council of the School
of Business Administration of Montana
State University and member of the
Board of Trustees of Rocky Mountain
College. A 1881 graduate in liberal arts
from Stanford University, California,
he earned his masters degree in BUSH
ness administration in 1888 from Har-
ward University He holds an honorary
LID. degree from Montana State Uni
versity.
In any discussion of higher educa-
ton in Montana, one often hears
Montana just can't afford six sepa-
rate units in it's university system"
/ disagree with this statement COM
pletely. | believe that the existence
of separate units is not only an adj
vantage now, but will become in
creasingly advantageous in the years
to come.
Decentralization of higher educa-
ton is the natural trend, not centrali-
zation. More campuses, not less cam
puses, represent the predominant
educational development in the Unit
ed States today. A sound basic liberal
arts or teachers training program
can be economically provided in a
college of approximately 500 or more
students. Almost half of the colleges
in the United States have less than
500 students. Another 22@o have
from 500 to 1000 students. Only
about 800 of the colleges in the
United States have a student enroll
ment over 1000.
The anticipated Montana enroll
ments for next fall are as follows:
Montana State College --4,O76
Montana State University 1874
Eastern Montana College L ,481
Northern Montana College $50
Western Montana College 531
School of Mines $40
Thus five of our six units already
qualify as economical units for basic
instruction at the present time. The
School of Mines has always been a |
high-cost, highly specialized small
college.
The projected enrolment for
next fall, 11,I22, IS over 5000
greater than the enrolment just
five years ago. During these past
five years our total university sys-
tenn enrolment has increased
about 400.
1t is expected that nationally there
will be at least 500 more students
in our colleges by 1870 than now.
This is minimum guess, many esti-
mates ranging as high as 1870 to
1000 increase by 1870. The 500
estimate is based on the same per-
centage of the college age group (18
to 2i) attending college in 1870 as
at the present time.
EIGHT FOLD GAIN SINCE 1900
Few people are aware of the great
increase since 1900 in the percentage
of college-age students attending col
lege. The table below shows the per-
centage of college age attending, to-
gether with the total number of stu
dents in college for the United States:

SMALLER UNITS HAVE
LOWER PER STUDENT COST

What we are really concerned with
| is, does it cost more dollars per stu
dent when we have six units than if
we had only one or two units? Actual
ly, when college gets to a size Of
about 500, | can find no evidence
that the cost per student goes down
as the school gets larger. In Montana,
the smaller units at Eastern, North
ern and Western historically have
always shown lower cost per stu
dent than the other three units.
For the coming school year, the
budgeted cost at Montana State Uni
versity and at Montana State College
is $1,O66 per student. The budgeted
cost at Mines, SLABS; at Northern
$841; at Western $814 and at East
ern 1854. The same general relation
ship of costs per student has pre-
vailed in the six units over the last
five years.
Part of the differential in cost is
due to the types of courses taught.
MISC and MSU tend to have higher
cost because of graduate students
and somewhat higher percentage of
upper division students. The fact re-
mains that under present budgeting
practices and under the practices
which have prevailed over the last
five years at three legislative ses-
sions, students attending Eastern,
Northern or Western have cost the
taxpayer less per student than stu
dents attending MISC, MSU and
Mines.
AS colleges grow in size above
basic minimum, costs tend to go up
almost directly in proportion to the
number of students. If the same
faculty ratios are maintained as the
colleges grow, it takes so many more
professors and so many more class
rooms for each additional 100 stu
dents, whether they attend one of the
smaller units or one of the larger
larger units where the ratio of stu
dents to faculty is Is to 1, as COM
pared to 20 to 1 at Eastern and West
ern. and Is to 1 at Northern, the
cost per student rises.
When there is different rate of
faculty pay (Which for the first time
was introduced into the budget this
year, providing for higher pay for
professors at MISC and MSU, perhaps |
teaching identically the same classes
as at the smaller units, then the cost |
per student at the larger units tends
to rise further.

LARGER INSTITUTIONS HAVE
MORE FRINGE" COURSES

Many people seem to feel that if
all the students were in one or two
institutions rather than six, the total
costs to the taxpayer would go down.
Actually what seems to happen, not
only in Montana but all over the
country is that when institutions get
larger they tend to add more fringe
courses which tend to raise the cost
per student.
Now it is obvious that if the cost
per student to the taxpayer is reason
able. in fact somewhat lower at the
smaller units, then there is also a
great additional economic saving to
all those students who can live at
home and go to college.
In total cost involved, if there
were but one unit with 1900 stu
dents, the total amount of money
put forth for education both by
the taxpayers, and by the students
and parents would be greater than
with our present system of six
units.
Of course, there is little serious
thought of abandoning any one of the
units. inasmuch as we have the
plants, and if one plant were closed
and the students moved to one of the
existing units, then we would have to
enlarge that unit to take care of the
additional student load.
| would like to see as much econ
omy as possible in education consist
emit with good quality education. |
am convinced that more economy can
be achieved. But to say that we can't
afford good education in Montana or
the United States, just isn't true.

stricken heart Will not get enough
oxygen and its muscle will be dam
aged. perhaps fatally The X-ray
at the right photo shows a heart
which has suffered a similar at
tack but because of the new eX-
detrimental treatment it shows
many more functioning arteries.
Its muscle is getting enough blood
and will very likely survive.
The new treatment. devised by
a team of surgical researchers at
the Harvard Medical School relies
on the fact that hearts have stand
by systems of arteries which do not
! normally carry blood. 1t takes a
/ considerable increase of pressure
to open up these arteries quickly
and put them to work by passing
the blocked blood vessels. In the
! usual sudden heart attack this rise
in pressure does not occur. The
Harvard technique uses an ingeni-
Gus pump apparatus to supply this
pressure artificially Electronically
controlled by the patients own
heartbeat, the pump forces blood
into the heart muscle and opens
the unused arteries. The vessels
stay open even after the machine
is disconnected
In the experiments on dogs the
percentage of heart attack deaths
was reduced from 83 to II percent
Researchers are next planning to
test the technique on humans. They
hope that it may have similar life
saving value-and even reduce
heart damage after less critical
attacks"

The article termed the pump
'basically simple way to save the
blood-starved heart after an acute
cOrOnary occlusion-and to stimu-
late permanent detours for the
blocked circulation.
In further explanation. it de-
clared the system does more than
