Amendment to Building Fund
Proposed by Representatives
Austin, Tex., Feb. 22 —(/P)— Rep. James L. Norton Jr.
of Nacogdoches today proposed that 40 million dollars of
the permanent university fund be used by 17 state-supported
institutions of higher learning for needed buildings or per
manent improvements. The fund has previously been split
between Texas A&M and the Uni-4 —
versity of Texas
Norton said the money—to be
secured through sale of bonds
backed by the permanent fund—
should be divided proportionately
between the schools on the basis
of average scholastic enrollment.
The freshman legislator already
has introduced a proposed consti
tutional amendment which would
authorize issuance of $40,000,000
worth of bonds. Half would go to
the University-of Texas and Texas
A&M and half to 14 other colleges.
He said he wiH present am
amendment to divide the $40,-
000,000 proportionately when his
resolution comes before the
house committee on constitution
al amendments for public hear-
iiig.
The amendment would allow
Texas State College for Negroes to
share in the funds. Norton’s origi
nal measure provides for that
school to receive building funds
only by legislative appropriation.
Norton said he did not think
the University permanent fund
should be reserved for exclusive
use of the University of Texas

and Texas A&M.
The congress of the Republic of
Texas appropriated 221,400 acres
in 1839 for establishment of a
general system of education and
this land was transferred in 1858
to the University of Texas by the
act which created the school, Nor
ton said.
“The university was the only
state-owned college at the time,
so naturally all the land was given
that school. If there had been
other state colleges, the legisla
ture obviously would have divided
that land for establishment of a
general system of education.”
“I don’t think our forefathers
meant that only one school should
benefit,” he continued. “They want
ed Texas people to be able to get
a good education whether they
went to school in Austin, Lubbock
Nacogdoches, or any place else in
the state.”
