WHAT GOULD KU do to keep me? Nothing! The hands of those who could do anything were tied by the budgetary restraints imposed on legislature elected by the people in Kansas, would not have been allowed to vote. My salary been raised and some concrete indication of support has been given but the addendum has been understandably offer no hope for the next several years and was reluctant to encourage me to
FACULTY MEMBERS go to meetings in other schools and see what kinds of teaching facilities they have. They are also money, (for example, Pittsburgh and Emporia both have several good large lecture auditoriums that enable the use of the latest audiovisual techniques). They have many excellent rooms that enable the use of the latest audiovisual techniques. They have legislators and newspapers and questioned by citizens over issues which are partially beyond their challenge (often justifiable) who challenge (often justified) who are doing and who vent their
I do not think my case is unique. I have talked with many colleagues who have expressed interest in situations at KU ranging from the minor annoyance of having to stand in lines to purchase ID cards and to the major problem of inadequate teaching facilities or increased interference in KU's internal legislature and Board of Regents.

ALL OF THIS LEADS to a general dissatisfaction and means that both students and faculty are looking elsewhere for courses to be offered, will be a mass exodus from KU, but students who would never have considered going elsewhere are now looking at other schools many younger marketable faculty with much more experience to seriously consider other offers.
My colleagues and I recognize that there are difficult financial times and that there is no perfect solution that can and need to be made. The people in Kansas must recognize the importance of a strong state and be willing to support it in spite of partisan politics or provincial attitudes. They must understand the goals of the state schools, the difference in cost of educating graduate and undergraduate students, the academic research and basic problems exist at the state schools. The administration and faculty at the state schools must have the skills and the voters and be willing to make adjustments. I sincerely hope something concrete is done to address these challenges and the future outlook darkens.
"This administration deeply regrets the expulsion of the two brothers, but the precedent is a most unfortunate one and will have adverse effects on our community."
U.N. Causes Caution, Bitterness
WASHINGTON (AP) —The United Nations' decision to expel Taiwan will be respected by the United States, Secretary of State John Kerry said Tuesday, but the Nixon administration regards it as "a most fortunate precedent." The Congress demanded retaliation.
Angry Senate and House conservatives urged a cut in U.S.
contributions to the United Nations and some members demanded even more drastic action. Others called for continued support of the United Nations, the only hope for world peace.
Senate leaders of both parties,
Democrat Mike Mansfield of Montana
and Republican Hugh Hanham of
Pennsylvania have long believed the United
States pays too big a share of
their budgets on backs on that basis, not

terrorism in mainland China and

Their position would increase the chance that there will indeed be a reduction in the U.S. consumer demand, totals some $249 million a year.
Sens. James L. Buckley, RN Y., and Peter H. Dominick, RColo., were drafting legislation to reduce the U.S. payments.
But other senators urged caution.
BOSTON (AP)—A Princeton University professor scheduled to appear before a federal grand jury investigating the Pentagon Papers case said Tuesday he held a contempt charge in order to wash the right to protect confidential sources for some scholars.
Falk, 41, had been subpoenaed to appear before the grand jury last month.

Sen. Charles H. Percy, R-III., said that would set a dangerous
Men on both sides of the issue expressed disappointment, and regret at the expulsion of Taiwan. I believe, however, that to redeem American support of the United States would be an inappropriate response to this unfortunate vote," said Sen. Clifford P. Case, R-I.N.
Professor Might Defy Court to Save Source
Professor Richard A. Falk is to appear Thursday before a Boston
grand jury which is reportedly investigating possible crimes connected with the leaking of the paper papers to the press last summer.
LOOKING FOR A BARGAIN? HERE IT IS!
Falk asked earlier that his subpoena be thrown out.
