In making this statement upon the budget submitted tto Governor F. F. Merriam, President Sproul points out that the sum asked would be less by two-thirds of a million dollars than the University had five years ago, that the enrollment has Sncreased 19 per cent since that iime and is expected to increase another 14 per cent in the next two years. “The legislature of 1933 gave the $4,267,308 less for the 19 it had rethe previous two years,” “Tf funds for ar omitted, University biennium ceived. for said President Sproul. eapital improvements the. cut 99_9F 30-300 than e in the operating budget was During that biennium, decrease and the enrollment did not ills stimulated many now denression demands for of 1935 gave ae apo re for the biennium 1935-37, $1,004,365 mors than the aetna legislature gave, but still $3,262,943 less than the 1933 high. In this biennium the enrollment has increased 13 per cent, and the enrollment for the. present year is 19 per cent higher than the enrollment for 1933. This is a staggering increase, and is certainly convincing in its testimony that the University is still regarded as a place where a first-class education, undergraduates as well as graduate, may be obtained. -To finance this gigantie piece of work we have a budget 13 per cent, or $2,098, 943, less than that which we had when the legis7923 §33 met. years, lature of “During these we have carried through loyalty. and cooperation our whole the humblest janitor to the distinguished professor.

The legislatur: TRAFFIC VIOLATORS — SEVERELY SHOCKED) SACRAMENTO, Dec. 3.—Traffic law violators, who sought to avoid ‘court appearance by giving fictitfous addresses, received ‘severe shocks during October when 600 such violators were taken from their homes, vehicles or places.of employment by officers. : During the first ten months of thiis year, Director Ray Ingels of the Motor Vehicle Department reported to Governor Merriam today, officers of the California highway patrol served 4.403 warrants. As these arrests are permitted at night, many violators have found themselves lodged in jail over night. facing a light sentence upon answering court citation, were taken to jail, and kept waiting while officers from a distant part of the state ealied for ithem. As the law makes no provision for returning such-violators to their home towns, many of the 4,403. who sought to evade penalties have had

The particular history in question is that written by Professor George R. Stewart of the department of English, University of California, under the title, “Ordeal by Hunger.” .
