    reason: I eelitve that the employment of a proper,

    Y. M. C. A. would be of great benefit to the Univer-

    sity and I would gladly vote for this resolution

    were it not for the fact that I do not believe that

    from State and Federal taxes can under the law be

    used for religious instruction.."
