There were 23 abstentions as
many senators avoided the vote as
a foregone conclusion.
One senator, who declined to be
quoted by name, said in an inter
view with a Daily Nebraskan re
porter, "If it would have done any
real good, I would have been for
it (Adam's resolution). But, the
Chancellor has said many times
why they raised tuition. They
need more money. It would take
him (the Chancellor) about 20 min
utes to explain that. That's why
a lot of the senators didn't vote."
Senator Adams, in his speech,
said, "the state is unqualifiedly
responsible" to maintain a "com
petent" university. "How can we
know what is before our commit
tees? Except for a chance meet
ing with one of the members in
these halls, we cannot tell. Who
knows, Adams' said.
"Out of my experience I am not
afraid to ask for truth. It hurts
nobody to hear it," Adams con
cluded. During his speech, Adams called
attention to a story in the Daily
Nebraskan and said, "In what I
am doing, I have the concurrence
of the entire student body of the
University."
Meanwhile, Governor Victor An
derson called his hold-the.-line pol
icy on the budget "the most popu
lar thing I've ever done in my
political career."
The governor toured . much of
the state last week, attending dis
trict meetings of the Nebraska
Bankers Association. He reported
that during the tour many persons
commended him on his efforts to
hold down state taxes.
"People have got to the point
where they want the brakes put
on government spending," he said.
Anderson's remarks came as the
stage was being set for an expect
ed legislative floor fight over the
proposed budget which contains a
eut of $1 million in the $3.2 rec
ommended by the governor.
Heavy opposition is also expect
ed against Anderson's proposal to
reduce the state institutional build
ing levy and eliminate the medi
cal college levy entirely.
In support of his special levy
the governor is expected to pre
sent a detailed report to the Legis
lature on his 6tudy of building
needs at state institutions. His
inspections of state buildings so
far show that "the critical needs
have been met", according to An
derson. The budget is expected to go to
the floor Thursday and under Uni
cameral rules can discussed
immediately.
