GOP Cuts Budget By $406 Million
Washington — (U.R.)— With three of the government's nine major departments heard from, the Republican administration has trimmed about $406 million from former President Truman's appropriations requests for the coming fiscal year.
German Teachers to Topeka
The spring concert of the University A Cappella choir will be presented at 8 p.m. Wednesday in Hoch auditorium.
Members of the German department attended the meeting of the Kansas Modern Language association in Topeka March 28. Dr. Hans Juergensen, chairman of the German section of the association, led a general discussion on "The Teaching of German in Kansas High Schools."
It was disclosed yesterday that the justice department had submitted appropriations requests totaling $184,425,000, a reduction of $7., 450,000 from Mr. Truman's figure.
A Cappella Choir To Give Concert
The choir has appeared three times with the Kansas City Philharmonic orchestra in Kansas City, and will present concerts in Kansas City, Mo., and Topeka later this season.
The choir, organized by Dr Swarthout while dean of the school, is made up of students from the College and the schools of Education, Business, Pharmacy, Engineering, and the Graduate school as well as Fine Arts.
This reduction was much smaller than those of $130 million and $169 million reported previously for the agriculture and commerce departments, respectively.
Solos in group numbers will be sung by Linda Stormont, fine arts junior; Dale Moore, fine arts junior; Natalie Sherwood, fine arts senior, and Suzanne Armentrout, fine arts senior.
Senate appropriations committee members doubted, however, that the justice department could be expected to match the percentage reductions of some of the other departments. Most of its funds go to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Immigration and Nationalization service and the Federal Prison system.
Graduate Dies in Kansas City
The 106 voice choir, under the direction of D. M. Swarthout, dean emeritus of the School of Fine Arts, will sing Negro spirituals, folk songs, and a group of choral numbers from the 19th century Russian liturgical music.
