September. Grievous as this course is, it cannot be said that the announcement comes as a surprise. The University, like every other enterprise, is faced with increased costs 'whiéh were substan- tially augmented last January by raising staff salaries to the necessary level. University financing, President Sidney Smith states, has become a nightmare of trying to-stretch inade- quate funds to meet soaring expenses. He points out that endowments pro- vide only about eight per cent. of expenditures, that despite the suppoit of individuals and corporations, and, despite larger and. larger grants from the Provincial -Government, the bud- stances the University has been fore- ed to increase fees as the only other source of revenue available to it at the present time." i Because it is the only other source of revenue Dr. Smith expresses she profound concern of the Governors at having to resort to it. It is consider- ed unthinkable to draw upon fees to the point where students pay the total cost of their education, for that would reserve a university education for the wealthy, but increased fees being un- mum of $116,000 is to be established Lo assist those talented students who otherwise would be unable to com- continue their university menee on studies, In this dilemma the University of Toronte, like every university in the Dominion, looks to the Federal Gov- ernment-for-the aid-which-Prime Min- ister St. Laurent has indicated might be given. It is aid to which no one in the country will object, for there ean scurcely be a citizen who is unaware of the indispensable contributions the universities make to the npatiom in: peace und in war, Dr. Smith warns that a delay in federal aid "might well prove disas- trous to higher education in this coun- try," and he expresses the hope that the Massey Commission will recom- ment relief and that Parliament whi provide it this session. Such is the urgency that the commission would be rendering a national service by presenting at the earliest opportunity an interim report dealing specifically with the serious plight of the univer- sities, get will not balance.
