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.
