Budget requests approved by the Board of Control and ready for aubmission to the State Budget Commission would call for legisla- tive appropriations of $38,985,223 out of the general fund to finance operations of the University of Florida, Florida State University, Florida A. and M. College for Ne- groes and their auxiliary agencies. That would be tax money to supplement revenue from their own operations and other sources. In all, the budgets of the three institutions call for spending $62,- 354,906 during the next two years. ‘The institutions also have filed requests for $21,822,600 worth of new buildings but those requests have not been finally approved by the Board of Control. In the current bieunnium, the three institutions received appro- priations of $33,996,507 from the state general fund and had a total of $59,568,651 available from all sources—including two million dol- lars borrowed on revenue certifi- cates by the University of Florida. The University of Florida budget calls for $22,650,323 for the univers- ity proper, the Agricultural Ex- periment Station, the Industrial Experiment Station and the Agri- | cultural Extension Service. That is $2,542,000 more than it got from the general fund by appropriation of the 1951 Legislature. Its total operating budget from all sources would be $36,462,300. Florida State University is asked $11,522,516 from the general fund, compared with an appropriation of $9,656,127 in the current biencium. Other funds would run its total operating budget to $16,561,134. Florida A. and M. College for Negroes seeks $4,812,384 from gen- eral revenue for operations, com- pared with $4,142,106 this biennium. Its total operations would cost $6,- 548.686. Fsu has put in requests for $8,- BF ) worth of new buildings, The ONCERNING INS Deva Sr. Px. 1870-1871 1951 Legislature appropriated $1,- 200,000 for construction at FSU. It hasn’t been spent but the projects probably will be started before the end of the biennium. Florida A. and M. wants $6,875,- 000 worth of new buildings. It had $1,750,000 this biennium. The University of Flcrida, which had no state fund appropriations for buildings in this biennium, has asked for $6,067,000. The bulk of the increase in gen- eral revenue funds sought by the university would go for salary boosts. The 1951 Legislature gave the university a salaries appropria- tion of $15,708,000. The proposed budget would allocate $18,139,900 for salaries. Inauguration Of Governor In New Spot TALLAHASSEE —Dan McCar- ty will be inaugurated as governor of Florida across the street from the state Capitol instead of on its steps where most of his predeces- sors have been sworn in. The inauguration will be on the west side of the Capitol instead of on the east porch where it tra- ditionally has been held. That will Place the ceremonies between the Capitol and the State Supreme Court building. The inaugural platform will be built on the west side of Adams St., which runs west of the Capitol. Press accommodations will be built around the inaugural plat- form. Switching the ceremonies to the west side of the building will make a block-square park between the Capitol and Supreme Court avail- able for spectators. The inaugura- tion is expected to start about 11:30 a. m., Jan. 6. Hamburgers, served with toast- ed rolls and barbecue sauce, make good eating for the football crowd. To make the barbecue sauce easi- ly, put a eup of chili sauce, a table- spoon of brown sugar, two or three tablespoons of cider vinegar, and some thin onion rings in a sauce- pan. Simmer the sauce for about five minutes and when you pour it over the hamburgers see that there’s an onion ring on each, Appropriation Is Scored As “Beyond Need” AUBURN, N. Y. —Rep. John Taber (R..NY) said Monday the Atomic Energy Commission’s cur- rent appropriation was “way be- yond their need” and that congres- sional budget chiefs ‘‘must find out more .... about this organi- zation.” The 72 - year - old congressman, who is expected to. head the House Appropriations Contmittee in the 83rd Congress, made the state- ment in announcing results of a study of expenditures of five gov- ernmental units. Taber said his study, based on expenditures for the first four months of the fiscal year which began July 1, showed that appro- priations for the agencies ‘could readily be lower” on an annual basis. Included were the AEC, the De- fense Department, the Agriculture Department, the Mutual Secur’ Administration, and the Interior Department. Taber, long an advocate of strict economy in government, said the AEC had available $5,536,000,000 for the 1952-53 fiscal year. In the first four months, the commission spent 600 million, he said, and observed that this rate would total only $1,800,000,000, or less than one-third of the appro- Of Interest To You, But .-- ——_—_— Too Late To Classify By RUSSELL KAY ae easessa sas absAbs dha bass SELEEEEEEE Another successful State Chamb- er of Commerce conference has come and gone and those who were fortunate enough to attend the three-day session in Jacksonville last week agree that it was out- standing in every respect. The Florida State Chamber of Commerce, under the able manage- ment of Harold Colee, provides this state with “@ business and industrail leadership that is play- ing an important part in Florida’s steady growth and development. The annual conference of the FSCC attracts top-flight executives from every walk of business and industrial life. It is the oue conven- tion of the year where you can count on finding just about every- body of consequence. I have not missed such a gather- ing for many years and can safely term the one just closed an out- standing success. From the smooth- ly operating registration desk, Where capable secretaries greet most everyone by name, through the business sessions and direct- tors, particularly Harold Colee and his efficient staff, It would take many columns to tell in detail about the constructive program that went to make up the recent conference, but the talks by outstanding leaders were inspiring, DRESS UP YOUR CAR FOR THE HOLIDAYS Immediate Service—No Waiting We are now equipped te do all types of body, fender nd paint work ... expert craftsmen that assure you of fast efficient service.

Ollie Edmunds, president of Stetson University, in a self- said that Florida has far to travel before it becomes a “Premiun” state. He said that to gain the position to it must clean up its cities and highways to match the State‘s natural beauty, improve its colleges and public libraries to opportunity afforded by the recent elections to and encourage citizens to take greater interest in civic and govern- mental affairs. Alfred A. McKethan, chairman of Florida‘s imperative needs if we are to be prepared to maintain our highways adequate to the over- expanding need of our growing tourist and commercial travel, Florida‘s road system is inadequate to meet today‘s needs and such highways as are needed cannot be financed unless taxes are sharply increased or tolls are employed. He strongly urged construction of the highway from jacksonville to miami as the first link in such an overall tollpike system on a long range road building program. Banquet speaker was Donald R. Richberg, Washigton attorney, who | stated that the election of General | Eisenhower was a crucial turning | point in the history of the United | States, He said’ that this nation, | which has slid dangerously far toward socialism and the welfare | state under Trumanism, can save | itself under the new president and establish again a sound responsible | goverment that will command worldwide respect.
