KAHN SAID he thought the new budget system was very rational and would give cleans the building to organize long-range planning.
Because the School of Administration has only five graduate students in a one-year old program, he said, we have "no pass" context to hold.
if a dean were not using salary funds as the vice-chancellor for research and graduate studies thought he should, the vice-chancellor could still curtail his work following year, Albright said.
"I realize, though, that other densities have much more problems with the formulated budget and decentralization than I do," he said.
Albrecht said that under the formalulated guidelines a vice-chancellor for research and graduate studies would have some budgetary responsibility as a faculty member, while chancellor for academic affairs would allocate funds to individual students.
WILLIAM SMITH, dean of the School of Engineering, said he expected reorganization to give clearer voice in salary issues.
"I can't account for why salary increases are uped and downed by someone in the upper administration, even when tight budgets were no longer needed."
Although deams will be forced to be more responsible for the "shrinkage of salaries," this will not eliminate "unhappy faculty
members who think they're worth more than they're being paid," said Smith.
Most deans said they did not want to be overloaded with lobbying responsibilities.
. . .
"A dean shouldn't and can't carry all responsibility for acquiring money." Katz said.
"It scares the hell out of me," he said, "it sounds like '1984."
Gorton said he was "not really sold" on the formulated budget or computerized information system.
Silber said the statistics alone didn't represent the complete picture of Headquarters' progress and value, however.
"How can you measure the value of a song or a painting? These are dependent on the spirit that is be plugged into a computer."
Headquarters has a 24-hour switchboard service and Silber said they received an average of 99 calls or walk-ins each week. It was almost twice the number contacts there were a year ago.
At least one dean said he did
nothing in the business with a formulated budget system.
The branches of higher education in the whole state must go
to the district.
"You can't rely on statistics when you need men" he said.
A few dews they asked they thought the presentation had "handwritten" comments on reorganization had not included a broadest possible range of philanthropy.
GORTON SAID that beae of the University's diversity of institutions, he could not see how one could spill out of a budget system.

Differences among the graduate faculty had been aired at the meeting of the graduate council with reorganization "in principle." At the meeting, one member asked why the meeting was being held where other members were away from Chalmers said the main reason
"It's only when you hear the desperation of a suction caller, the fear of someone on a bad trip, or the progress toward resolution of major problems when a teammate comes around and try again that you really begin to appreciate this year's work," Silber said.
Headquarters Starts Drive for $10,000
Headquarters, Inc., a nonprofit organization that deals with personal crisis aid and drug management, raises fund raising drive by sending out over 4,000 letters requesting information about Kansas faculty members. Lawrence businessmen, professional people and past contestants.
$750 in contributions had been collected since the letters were sent out a week ago, Riie Siler, director of Headquarters said. The range from $1 to $500, Siler said this year's goal was $10,000.
THE DRUG PROGRAM at Headquarters is divided into three main categories, the first of which is prevention.
Bing Hart, a headquarters volunteer, said the prevention program was educational and was primarily handled over the phone. Silber said he had spoken to students and brought in troops to approximately 25 classes at the University and about 10 high school classes.
Hart has done a lot of consulting for other programs in the industry and believes his biggest contribution to his development of an analysis program in which drugs were evaluated and labeled as to their content.
"In the two years that the analysis program has been in effect," Hart said, "plus the analysis of drugs dating back two years. We have never found any psilocybin or mescaline."
Silber said the programs at Headquarters were dependent upon staff, and were a lot of things Headquarters could do if they had the resources to pay their staff, which presently are very limited. They are paid director. To carry on merely the present operation, however, the funds are accumulated in the fund drive.
Another graduate faculty member said he was concerned about some of the secrecy surrounding reorganization.
for moving swiftly was so the transition could take place under Albrecht's supervision.
A LETTER FROM the department of physics and astronomy was read which said that department was strongly concerned that would decentralize or weaken the Graduate School.
Waggoner and Albrecht, two administrators involved in reorganization, were on most of the committees.
"Although I've been in on the whole thing more than any other person and have been taken into the Chancellor's confidence." Albrecht said, "it seems to me that the people we were widely representative."
Nearly all deans interviewed between parts of reorganization Francis Heller's leaving the office of vice-chancellor for education.
Some deans said they had expected Heller's resignation. They said, however, that the debate between Heller and Chalmers.
Most deans said they had a great deal of respect for Heller and had developed much trust in them. We sorry to see him leave office.
"It takes a certain amount of trust and security to do what Heller did," one dean said, "and it requires the actors in a good administration."
HELLER DID not resign until Chalmer's task force had made him a director of the functions of the office of vice-chancellor for research and study.
One administrator, who was a member of the task force and was also an adviser said, "We discussed Heler's possible resignation within the task force and Chalmers obtained from us on such a possibility."
A special subcommittee of the task force was appointed by Chalmers to make official the recommendation of Heller to a Roy Roberts Distinguished scholar after the department of physics science recommended his appointment according to Albrecht.
"The Chancellor told me the department was considering the changes, but don't know how formal the subcommittee came up with the subcommittee considered."
HERMAN D. LUJAN,
chief executive of the political science, said recently that during Christmas vacation he would not leave the Holer might leave office. So he informed the political science faculty, and they recommended a change in his position.
"I'm not sure how Chalmers got the idea for considering Heller for the Roy Roberts Chair."
In reply to Lajan's statement that he had been informed of Helser's possible leaving office, he said in the announcement Jan 7, Chalmers said, "Let's just say that was a face-saving 'measure on our side.'"
Chalmers said his philosophy of University administration
"differs from Heller's and every other administrator at this University."
Francis Heller, in a recent interview, said that much of the "speculation about my leaving" would be to an overuse of certain terms."
"Aloo. I told Chalmers when he stepped down whenever he said that it was in the interest of the University's progress. Heller
HELLER SAID he knew that w at his hes with it. "I operated on a very personal basis—much different from the way my mom did."
Some deans said they saw Hitler's aggressive treatment as a possible indication that humanistic values might not be desired in the new curriculum.
Such a description could be applied without concern to individuals, Clark said.
"I don't think one can divorce a man from his position—I don't understand the new description of life, or a life of its own." Gorton said.
Clark and other deans, however, said they thought that personalities would still be involved in positions having a life attached. Owned by Chimers attached, he explained they had explained he was.
"I'm sure we will still have value judgments even down to the school in the decentralized system," Smith said.
