(Official City, State and County Newspaper) Foreign Representatives SMALL, SPENCER, LEVINGS & BREWER (incorporated) CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON Those Tuition Fees | Announcement by the state board! of administration that it proposes t> assess heavy tuition fees on out-of- state students attending our institu- tions of higher learning has brought sharp and immediate rejoinder from some of the interests affected. Most noticeable of the reactions is that of the Fargo Forum which dis- agrees with the board as to the jus- tice of the move and cites a good many reasons why the action is un- justified. The Forum's editorial r: joinder is polite and dignified and puts the discussion on the basis 9! fact with regard to the advantages or disadvantages of the proposal. It makes a strong point of the his- torical precedents involved and the matter of reciprocity between the ed- ucational systems of various states. Nelson Sauvain, board chairman, made explanation of the situation in announcing the board's decision, but gave no facts to prove the judginent a sound one. Everyone will agree that there is no point fo this state being an “educational Santa Claus” to its neighbors because schools cost money, but Mr. Sauvain does not prove such to be the case. i The Forum offers pretty fair proof; to support its contentions and there- fore, to date, has the best of the ar- gument as an academic question. It should not be overlooked, how- ever, that the question may be a po- litical one as well as one to be de-} cided on the basis of strict justice; and common sense. There may be some point from the stand- point of the board, in making the plea to the taxpayers that it is pro- tecting their interests. It loses !ts) edge, however, when it meets the op- position of a newspaper which long has been regarded as the most po- tent instrument of the political group; to which every member of the board adheres. In view of this situation it will be interesting to note if the board sticks to its present position or if the ruling is modified. Women as Artists C. R. Chatterton, the artist whose paintings of Maine's coast scénes re- cently drew favorable attention in New York, asserts that the trends of American art hereafter will be in the hands of women. ‘Women, he says, respond to art and, concentrate on it better than men do; and, he added, “woman is bringing art into the home and taking care to see that it is good.” In all of this he is probably right; | & ‘and the encouraging thing about it is that feminine appreciation of art is on a much higher plane than it was @ few decades ago. Ever since the Civil War women have been more or leas the arbiters of things artistic in this country—not as critics, but as the great, inarticulate public whose likes and dislikes subtly determine what style is to be uppermost. In the past their influence has not been en- tirely good; too often it has led to pretty-pretty things of no artistic significance. Now the American woman is apt to have a sounder taste than the man. If her influence is to predominate, it ‘ May be a good thing for art. Price of the ‘Fix’ The sad plight of Chicago, which as been slipping nearer and ucarer for years of acquiescence in rule by unscrupulous politicians. And what makes the affair of nation-wide in- terest is the fact that Chicago simply magnifies conditions that are pres- jent in nearly every American city. Chicago has done what most of the! rest of us have done—only on a big-j ger scale. i Political rule is almost inseparabl? | jfrom the fix. The fix is in evidence, in almost every department of most| city governments. If you know the/ right man you can get a traffic ticket! taken care of, you can get out of jury ‘duty, you can get this, that or the j other little favor; and if your friend is influential enough, you can get! your real estate assessment arranged as you would like to have it ar- ranged. That is what happened in Chicago. Tax assessment rolls were fixed and jfixed, and fixed, year after year—un- |til, finally, the courts threw them out and ordered the job done over again. | Politics interfered with the new as- jsessment, and now that has been thrown out likewise; and Chicago's finances are in a dire plight. There isn't anything surprising in| all of this. Politics played fast and! loose with Chicago's city government, and Chicago today is paying »the price. There is a tremendous lesson in the whole business for other cities. 1 j Editorial Comment | Editortals printed below show the trend of thought by other editors, They are published without regard to whether they agree or disagree with The Tribune's poliies. Nonresident Tuition Fees (Fargo Forum) The 1932 Bui | ing Plan lice “ WE MUST PUT SOME. STEEL BEAMS IN THE FOUNDATIONS OF OUR CREDIT SYSTEM” as While there may be agreement with the general proposition that a non- resident student entering a North Dakota educational institution should be required to pay a tuition fee high- er than that charged to the resident! student, it does seem that the! schedule of fees ordered effective July 1 by the North Dakota board of ad- ministration is far out of line with fees charged by institutions in other barrier against entry. The announced fee of $300 for stu- dents from other states entering the North Dakota Agricultural college o: the University of North Dakota, and the fee of $200 for those from other states who may enroll at the several. teachers’ colleges and secondary group of higher educational inslitu- tions, is far above the schedule of fees charged nonresident students by a group of neighboring state institu- tions canvassed by this newspaper. That schedule of fees ranges from 25 & year excess in the cases of li- linois and Purdue universities, $30 in the case of the University of Minnc- sota, to $200 in the case of the Uni- versity of Wisconsin. All of them, other than Wisconsin and Michigan, fall under $100 a year. If it is the desire of the North Da- kota board of administration to abol- ish entirely the practice of reciprocity in the work of education, then the excessive fee schedule may bo per- mitted to stand. But if, in the light of present enrollment conditions, tn the light of past experfence, it is re- garded as wise that North Dakota should retain and continue the re ciprocal relationship that has existe ever since this area was settled and long before we had educational in- stitutions of our own worthy the des- ignation, certainly there should be a drastic downward revision in the contemplated program of penalizing: the nonresident student. Let us grant the fact that Norih Dakota is called upon to furnish’ ed- cational facilities for groups of stu- dents from other states. But, while we concede that point as established by the records, let us not forget what other states are doing for us. The University of Minnesota is in Point, a telegraphic inquiry addressed to that institution by The Fargo Forum bringing the information that. 201 North Dakota students are en- rolled there this year. These North Dakota students at the Minnesota institution are being charged only & nominal fee in addition to that lev- ied_upon resident students. The Moorhead State Teachers col- lege is another apt illustration. At the present time, of a total enroll- ment of 636 students, 124 are North Dakotans. Minnesota makes no ex- tra charge against the North Dakota students, requiring of them only that they agree to teach two years in Min- nesota after graduation—if they can get a teaching position. North Dakota, in these two in- stances, is being relieved of the cost of educating 415 of her own boys and ir] the work that Minnesota is doing in their behalf is offset through the educational advantages we afford to her sons and daughters in_our institutions. Illustrations similar to the Univer- sity of Minnesota and the Moorhead. Teachers college may be carried for- ward indefinitely, and with results that would further evidence the wide advantages growing out of reciprocity in education. Wisconsin university, for instance, has 21 North Dakota students upon its rolls. In the case of the nonresident stu- dent who has enrolled in a North Dakota institution, expecting to com- plete his work there, the imposition of the drastic fee increase would work an untold hardship, an unfair handi- He came to our schools under ithe edge of downright bankruptcy, ‘$hiéw out the tax assessment rolls 998 and 1929 with the remark that tie evidence of fraud blew into his E. at vantages to us, will be g states, and virtually establishes al | New York, Jan. 11—Now and then, jscattered paragraphs in the press ‘help explain certain aspects and man- ners of Mahattan.
