Higher Education Must Be Sold
"We are here for the purpose of examining the budget," continued Mr. Carney, "and it is our desire to make certain that every expenditure is a proper one. We expect to spend for the University all of the money appropriated for teaching and we remember that this is not your University, but the University of the people of Kansas.
"It is interesting to note that every member of this Board is a native Kansan, and lives in the county of his birth," said A. B Carney, chairman of the governor, who is native of Kansas. "He is only natural that all of them should be interested in its University."
"It is hard for the average taxpayer to realize the comparatively small amount his state taxes are, including the amount for the University. He sees, rather, the million or more appropriated for the University, and almost as large amounts for the agricultural industry." The task for you is to tell well education of the state of Kansas. When they come to believe in higher education, their representatives in the legislature will provide it.
