five Eastern colleges for sociological

cording to Richard Weaver, presi

it sought entrance for Investigation
of conditions in the mining region.
At least five representatives of
the club also are planning to accompany the party from Commonwealth College, resident Labor col-

lege in Mena, Arkansas, which is on

The letter, which assures the Na
tional Students' league and mem
bers of the investigating party of

In further efforts, was written to
tell the party that "the state of
Kentucky is not unanimous in its
opposition to students of social phenomena who come to it from outside."
Although the letter was signed by
Richard Weaver, president of the
Liberal club, approximately 20 uni
versity students consented to sign
it before that method was abandoned, Weaver said in an interview
Wednesday. He previously received
a reply to the first telegram from
Donald Henderson,
instructor of
economics at Columbia and faculty
leader of the group of Eastern college students, expressing appreciation of the club's interest and soliciting further aid from students
and faculty members of the university and, other Kentucky educational institutions.
The Liberal club was organized
on the campus three years ago with
a membership of approximately 13
students, but never was recognized
officially by the university. The organization was disbanded shortly after, but because of lack of student interest, has been inactive
for several months. Its first cause
of organization was In opposition to
compulsory military training.

Situation Caused by LafToon's
Unintentional Vetoing of
Millage Tax Measure

k

Checks due members of the teaching staff of the university today
will not be paid until after a meeting of the Board of Trustees on
April 14, It was announced by Pres.
Frank L. McVey at the university
assembly.
Salaries of the teaching staff of
the university for the months of
March, April, May and June, or un
til the close of the present school
year, will be cut deeply but Presl
dent McVey expressed the hope that
teachers would receive at least half
of their salaries for the four months.
The cut does not affect members
of the experiment station and Agricultural Extension personnel, nor
will it affect the janitors and laborers employed at the university,
according to the president, who explained that the federal government
makes appropriations for the payment of these.
Although the state appropriations
for the summer school have been
reduced, the summer session will be
held as usual, but to offset the reduced appropriation tuitions will
have to be increased in order to
raise sufficient revenue. Teachers'
salaries for the summer session will
not be reduced more than 10 or
15 per cent, the president said. Tuition for summer school will be increased from $18.25 to $22.50.
"The university, like life, must go
on," Doctor McVey declared, adding that he believed that conditions
should be regulated so that next
year the personnel would not be reduced materially and salaries would
continue at the present 10 per cent
reduction, which went into effect in
February.
Action taken in regard to the cut
in salaries was made necessary by
a decline In Income from inheritance
and personal property taxes.
At
present the university is $200,000
behind on funds It ordinarily would
have received by this time of the
year.
Doctor McVey pointed out that
the depression which has been
sweeping the country since 1929 is
Just now striking the colleges and
universities throughout the nation,
and that other universities are in
the same condition as the University of Kentucky.
"The blame for existing conditions
cannot be laid to any individual,"
said President McVey, "but it is the
fault of forces over which we have
no control. I see no reason why, in
two years, the university cannot
come forth as strong as it has been
in the past."

CLASS IN SINGING
TO BE CONDUCTED
Frantz Proschowski, Head of

Frankfort, March 31 Little danger ultimately exists
that the University of Kentucky will be without fund?
throughout the next biennium although a clause in the
state budget bill repealed
continuing existing appropriations, authorities believe.
Nevertheless, the necessities
growing out of the situation
and Governor Laffoon'a unintentional vetoing of the bill
placing the millage tax in the
general fund will call for a
decision by the courts to permit state educational institutions to receive the money
that has been provided in the
reduced budget bill.
Governor Laffoon In signing the
reduced Kentucky budget bill, unwittingly approved a clause that repeals the millage distribution to the
schools. The clause provides that

"all annual and continuing (the
university's income rests on this
latter source) appropriations not
provided for in this act and all other
laws and parts of laws in conflict
herewith are hereby repealed."
Therefore, if the conditions of the
bill were allowed to exist unchanged
the instructional institutions would
be confronted
with the possibility
of facing the next two fiscal years
any available sources of
without

revenue.
The possibility of this contingency
early today caused a furor among
educational officials throughout the
state. Later, however, the scare was
somewhat lessoned as the educators

COURAGE, KENTUCKY
The test of a great leader is the
confidence vested In him by his
subordinates;
the salvation of an
institution, the confidence
of its
leader. Such confidence and cooperating and persevering spirit as
that revealed by both the faculty
and President McVey in facing,
squarely and unafraid, the present
unstable financial condition of the
University of Kentucky can lead to
nothing other than the readjustment of immediate prospects and.
in the near future, the
of a more favorable situation.
President McVey, speaking of the
university's financial problems, addressed, Wednesday, in Memorial
hall the assembled faculty group.
The substance of his talk is detail
ed in other columns of today's
Kernel. In renewing the troublous
phases of the university's income
struggle during the last fiscal year
and e:plaining the difficulties in
counterbalancing the decreased revenue, not once did the president
evince a pessimistic outlook. The
deflation in value of taxable properties from which the university has
derived the bulk of its income, the
legislature's reduction of the proposed budget and its failure to provide the state with a suitable revenue measure, Governor Laffoon's
subsequent resort to his veto power,
and the consequent reinstating of
the millage system as the university's only available source of revenue all have been disheartening.

Nevertheless,
outlined these conditions, only too
well known by him and by the faculty, and revealed the severe cut in
.salaries that he had recommended
as the only possible escape from
the mounting deficit already confronted by this institution, the faculty did not signify the slightest
dissension. On the (contrary', the
president's words were met with
