ILLINOIS "U" OyTS OPERATING EXPENSE tfi-bana, 111-, Dec. 26--The University will reduce by a million dollars its legislative request for operating expenses as compared with the operating appropriation made by the last legislature, President H. W. Chase announced today. "Salaries of the faculty and administrative staff will be reduced approximately ten per cent, by action of the Board of Trustees, as a result of a reduction of half million dollars in the salaries item of the proposed legislative budget," President Chase said, "The Board decided to reduce this item as well as all other Items which make up the biennial budget. Consequently the budget which the University will submit to legislature will call for a total of only $4,450,000 a year for the next biennium." The last General Assembly appropriated $11,280,000 for the two year period, which included $1,400,000 for the unit of the Medical and Dental Building in Chicago. This money, however, was not used, it was explained, because of the State's financial condition, and, in addition, the University curtailed other expenditures so that a total of approximately $2,500,000 of the appropriation will be unused. The University's savings for the present biennium, therefore, amount to more than twenty-two per cent of its total State budget. "Due to economies in the operation of the University during the present biennium it has already reduced its expenditures to practically the amount set in its legislative request for the coming period," President Chase said. 'In order to do this, it has been obliged to operate on an emergency basis and it cannot therefore continue on such a total for the next two years without a reduction in salaries. "On the basis of our last appropriation, we were granted an amount which represented 74 cents per dkpita of population. We will have used, how«yer, by the end of the University s»ar, dnly 58 cents per capita. "In fairness to education and to the University itself, the public, should bear in ind that if the legislature de cided to close the University entirely the annual saving which would result would amount to only about threefourths of one cent on the average tax dollar paid in property taxes. "Looked at from this point of view, the money invested by the citizens of Illinois in their University is so wide ly spread that the cost is no burden to any individual. "Aside from its teaching services, the results which have come out of the University's research laboratories contribute many millions of dollars yearly to the economic welfare of the state." Referring again to the appropriation two years ago which was to have been ui'ed for the Medical and Dental unit, President Chase said that the Univergi «(y hopes that some way will be ftund to keep the item alive until the financial condition of the state permits the construction of the building.
