Artist Show

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va, July
2 (AP).-Mrs. Ruth Epperson
was named new chairman Of
the boardwalk art show at a
meeting of the Virginia Beach
Art Association, after the res
ignation of several members in
a disagreement over the at
tempt of a Negro artist, A. B.
Jackson, to exhibit at the show.
Mrs. w. Carey Pennington,
vice president of the associa-
ton, presided at the Thursday
night meeting in the place of
Mrs. Helen Anderson, presi-
dent, who had resigned.
Others who resigned are Mrs.
A. j. Dennis, chairman of the
boardwalk art show, and Mrs.
w. w. Vail, publicity chair
man.
The designations came after
a group of members called for
a meeting next Monday night
to obtain sentiment on Mr..
Jackson's admission. Mrs. Ep-
person said yesterday that the
meeting will take place, but |
that it will be unofficial and
limited to association members.
She added that the reorgani-
zation was intended to insure |
that the boardwalk art show |
will be held this summer.
1--WE feel there are enough
level-headed people, prejudiced
in neither direction" she said,
Ito keep the show going. 1t is
unfair to Virginia Beach and
to the exhibiting artists to
ditch it now"
Mrs. w. H. cambridge. who
was named new publicity chair
,man, said the association will
hold a full membership meet
ing in the fall, when the board
walk art shows are planned, to
decide the integration question,
Yand to elect new officers. Mrs.
Pennington will act as president
until that time.

To Hear Special Debate

Based on an opinion of the at

there weren't sufficient valid
signatures.
Similar opinions presumably
had blocked November voting
on two other sets of petitions
challenging 1861 legislative acts
creating the Baltimore munich
pal court and enacting Mary

Just to be safe against the
referendum threats, Gov. Tawes
called the 1861 Legislature into

BALTIMORE, July 7 (AP).-
The Court of Appeals will be
urged to hear debate at an ex-
traordinary session July % on
whether the attorney general
properly invalidated petitions
challenging acts of the Mary
land Legislature.
Robert F. Sweeney, assistant
attorney general, said informal
agreement has been reached to
have the referendum question
heard the same day as the high
court considers whether the
State Senate should be reap
portioned.
Mr.. Sweeney said a formal
petition for speedy conSidera-
ton will be presented Chief
Judge Frederick w. Bruno in
Annapolis Monday.
Both decisions could have
bearing on the November elec-
tion ballot.
Decision Appealed
The specific referendum
question being referred to the
Court of Appeals is an appeal
of a decision Tuesday by Cir
cult Judge John E. Raine, jr.,
in Baltimore County.
Judge Raine held that one OF
more improper signatures on a
petition should not invalidate
all others on the same sheet.
This was contrary to opinions
by the attorney general.
Judge Raine's ruling was on
petitions to put on the Novem-
ber ballot an act of the 1861
legislature authorizing Balti-
more County to spend un-
limited money for bus trans
portation of parochial and
private school children.

Why Montunons
Fear Their Own
University
BY PAUL A. CARTER, late Associate
Professor of History, MSU

ITOlcSSOT OIL I1lSUOIy, MoO
Most residents Of most states are in
clined, at times at least, to think of their
state university as "our" university. Most
Montanans do, in this proprietary fashion,
think of the public schools as "our" schools.
But when they think of the University
units individually or collectively, these
units are not felt as "us'; they are felt as
an abstract, alien, and vaguely menacing
they
Why do SO many Montanans so sharply
distinguish the 'swe' from the "they' in
talking Of their university? 1t is not really
that Montanans think University people
are Communist, or irreligious, or dirty
minded, or snobs (social or intellectually,
or parasites-even though all of these
charges are sometimes made What prob
ably bothers the people of Montana most
about their University was well expressed
by the late Governor in radio address
last year in which he consistently
think, quite nocently-referred to the
students in the University of Montana units
as "our children"
A person who can legally be drafted or
married is not "child'' Governor Nutter's
use of the word children expressed some
thing fundamental in our states culture:
the fact that it is very deeply family based,
even patriarchal in character Now there
are many strengths in such culture; but
one of it's drawbacks is that the normal
parental unwillingness to see ones own
children grow up is greatly accentuated In
personal habits, in tastes in books and
music, in religion, Montana parents seem
even more than most parents to want their
children to grow up in their own image
or, at least in an image of the parents own
choosing The states ingrained political
conservatism reinforces this attitude by
helping the parents to define their private
family values as public and universal. And,
once the chosen image is established par
ents want their children not to change.
But an unfortunate biological fact super
venes. Living things grow from egg to
drumstick, and growth is change. There
fore children naturally will change (if they

do smalltown businessmen-and so do those

problems and an inadequate concern for
the long-run development problems of Mon
tana. It is time the public realistically ap-
praised the future and decided what it is
they want our State to become.

HIGHER EDUCATION COST
NOT OUT OF LINE

For all western states except two, these
percentages were less than 20 of personal
per capita income Montana's burden is
not out of line with that of other western
states, as examination of the complete data
will show.
1t is apparent that between 1851 and
1860, operating budgets for higher educa-
ton In Montana have about doubled. as
they have on the average in the western
states as whole This is, of course. mat
ter of concern to the Montana taxpayer.
He should not, however, forget that the
number of students leaving high school in
this state, and entering institutions of
higher learning, has also approximately
doubled during this same period.
The overriding issue, it would seem,
is basically this: do Montanans want
their children to receive higher educa-
ton In this state or do they not?
If they do not, they must be willing to
accept the consequences: retarded economic
development of Montana and tagging per
capita incomes and standards of living as
compared with most of the other states of
our nation If they do, it would seem that
the master plan for streamlining the uni
versity system is step in the right direc-
tion, and the budget cut of the current
biennium a step in the wrong one.

A DECREASE IN TAX FUNDS
APPROPRIATED


point of view of the actual expenditures
made or from the point of view of the state
tax funds appropriated. With respect to
the 1961-62 biennium, according to the
Joint Office of Institutional Research in
Washington, D. c., the state taxes appro-
priated for operating expenses were SILL
100000. decrease of ~ 90 under the
previous biennium
1t is clear, therefore, that the appro-
priations for essential current activities
of the university system were cut. One
issue is whether this cut was justified.
If we look at the expenditures for higher
education. compiled at federal level for
compatibility between the states, we find
that in 1851, among the eleven western
states, California had the lowest per capita
expenditure for operating expenses for
higher education ($5.05) and Utah the
highest ($12.8O), with Montana ranking be-
tween ($710). By 1860, these expenditures
had risen sharply in all western states, with
Idaho ranking lowest ($104D and Utah
still the highest ($24.20), with Montana
not quite midway between ($15.68). Be-
cause of changes in per capita income,
however, these data do not accurately dis
play the burden of these expenditures upon
the individual taxpayer. AS per cent q

University


Recently, the question of the Mon
tana university system and it's finan-
cling has drawn increased public at.
tention and interest, largely be-
cause of the curtailment by the 1861
Legislature of the budget for higher
education in this state.
The university financing includes money
for the six units of the University of Mon
tana, located at Missoula, Bozeman, Bill
ings, Dillon, Butte and Havre. In addition,
it may be considered to include funds for
the agricultural experiment station and the
extension service. Tax funds appropriated
for the university system come from two
sources: the six-mill levy on general prop
erty and the General Fund supplementary
appropriations.
The university budget is, however,
somewhat ill-defined depending upon what
institutions, functions, and/or expendi-
lures are included in it. For the six units
of the system, what might be called the
core functions of higher education are in
cluded in the current operating budget,
which excludes, for instance, such CONNER
cial activities as the operation of stadiums.

INCREASING ENROLLMENTS
BRING HIGHER COSTS

Increasing enrOllments and rising pei
student costs in Montana's university sys-
tenn must be financed if higher education
is to be carried to these students at COM
petent level Without such support from
the public of this state, adequate university
facilities cannot be maintained nor compe-
tent and interested teachers attracted and
kept The people of other states have made
or are having to make this decision con-
corning the support of their educational in
situations.
Among the western states, all except
Montana increased their appropriations
for operating expenses in the current
biennium by anywhere from low of
1870 in Idaho to a high of $3.50 in Colo
RADIO. Whichever choice is made, it en-
tails a cost. But if Montanans want de-
velopment of their state, they will have
to pay for it.
Between 1850 and 1859, per capita in
come in the continental United States in
creased 1870; in Montana, the increase
was only 229o, the lowest of any of the five
Rocky Mountain states. In the face of this
record. the last budget cut, however small
in percentage terms does not augur well
for the continued quality of our university
system. 1t reflects concern for short-term
