Campaign Will Be United
DALLAS— < -'P)—Texas’ state col
leges, universities and specializec
institutions are planning a unitec'
campaign for adoption of the col
lege building fund amendment ii
the November election.
The decision was reached yester
day in a special meeting of the nine
governing boards of the state’s It
institutions of higher learning
Tom Sealy, chairman of regents
of the University of Texas, an
nounced.
He said passage of amendment

building requirements for all 18
nstitutions for the next 20 years
without any increase in taxes or
urther appropriations from the
legislature.
The proposed amendment to the
tate constitution, he explained,
vould do two things.
It would permit the University
-f Texas Board of Regents to in
vest up to 50 per cent of its per
manent university building fund in
due chip common stocks so as to
Held more income.
And it would place the Univer
ity of Texas, Texas A&M and al!
heir various branches, including
Texas Western at El Paso, the
Jniversity of Texas Southwestern
Medical School at Dallas, and the
Jniversity of Texas Dental school
md the M. D. Anderson Hospital
it Houston in one group. This
Troup would derive its building
finances from the permanent build-
ng fund and its investments.
All the other state institutions—
12 of them—would continue to re
ceive construction funds from the
five-cent ad valorem tax approved
n the 1948 college building amend
ment.
Everyone will benefit, stated
Sealy, since 14 schools currently
?et building funds from the ad
valorem tax. By reducing this
number to 12, those remaining
will get more.
Current law, he said, limits per-
nanent university building fund
investments to government bonds.
Interest on these since 1923 have
iveraged about 2.7 per cent.
But by being allowed to purchase
blue-chip common stocks, conserva
tive estimates, said Sealy antici
pated the average yield at a mini
mum of 3.25 per cent. The added
income, e he said, would provide for
Additional building requirements.
