The federal government
as a whole j&iking a hard
look at8WSiitionar foreign-
policies of the last dec
ade, according to R o b e r t
Lincoln, Assistant Director
of the United States Infor
mation Agency (USIA).
Lincoln spent Monday at
the University informing
students and professors
about USIA operations and
career opportunities for
students.
Nebraska was the first
stop in aweek-long tour of
five universities including:
Iowa State University at
Ames, University of Arkan
sas, University of Oklaho
ma and the University of
Texas.
Eight other senior officers
of the USIA are making sim
ilar trips to universities
across the country during a
three-week period.
According to Lincoln, U.S.
foreign policies are b e i n g
studied and re-evaluated on
a regular basis with much
attention to the hard facts
of international relations
and the objectives of t h e
U.S. in any given area.
Evidence of this is seen
in the general effort to get

Budget Committee
'Plays It Deadpan'
At Hearing-Hardin
By NORM BROWN
University of Nebraska Chancellor Clifford Hardin
Legislative budget hearing committee and had no indica
said this morning that he appreciated the courtesy of the
tion of their action on the 37.1 million dollars he asked
for in the budget request.
During the six days of hearings, each of the deans
of the University and other department heads presented
their views on the needed Increase of their respective
budgets.
"We did very well four years ago, and not so well
two years ago. The committee "played it deadpan" dur
ing these long hearings this year" Chancellor Hardin
said.
The hearings were to support the university's re
quest for the $37.1 million which would cover all state
supported University expeditures for the biennium ex
cept new construction and a few other capital improve
ment items which are financed outside of the operating
budget.
This request compares with the University's current
biennial operating appropriation of $28.1 million. The pro
posed budget is an increase of $9 million, or 32 percent.
Walter K. Beggs, dean of the Teachers College ex
plained that the $109,000 increase asked by his colleee
would be used to take care of the increase of students
taking student teaching next year.
"These students started in the University two years
ago, and are now ready to take student teaching next
year. This 'bulge' in enrollment needs the extra super
visors and instructors we have asked for. The college
asked for four new supervisors and the regents cut the
request to two and one half before it reached the legis
lature committee. The current students in student teach
ing are now partly in the Lincoln schools where super
visors are not adequate for instruction," Dean Beggs
David Dow, dean of the College of Law, was the
said.

He said that the present 150 students now in school,
could be increased to 200 without additions to the staff.
Speaking for the College of Pharmacy, Dean R. D.

anticipates it will reach 195 by the end of the next biennium.
A&S Deans
Conclude Talk
On Problems
Twenty-two deans of arts
and sciences colleges from 13
central states met yesterday
at the Nebraska Center for
Continuing Education.
"We form no policies or
issue any resolutions. Our
purpose is to informally dis
cuss problems in administra
tive procedures, faculty sal
aries, methods of instruction
and college credit systems,"
said Walter Militzer, dean of
the University arts and
sciences college and coordi
nator of the conference.
This meeting marked the
55th annual Mississippi Val
ley Deans of Arts and Sci
ences Colleges Conferences.
The conferences were begun
in 1908 and skipped a year
during World War II, Dan
Militzer said.
The 18 states represented

The same "hard look"
and constant re-evaluation
applies to USIA operations,
said Lincoln.
"Our job is to explain and
further U.S. policies through
informational media and
cultural activities in foreign
countries around the world,"
he continued.
By Congressional legisla
tion, the USIA (known over
seas as the U.S. Informa

government agency operat

$125,000,000.

An amendment which would
be added to the income tax

support of a state-wide edu

(ETV) was suggested yester
day by Sen. Ross Rasmussen
of Hooper.
Sen. Rasmussen said that
another proposed way of fi
nancing the proposed ETV
network, through the income
of state-owned school lands,
was not permitted by the
state Constitution.
Monday, the Omaha super
intendent of schools called for

It is from the studies of these

criminal mind and actions,
and so discover new methods
to prevent crime in the fu

Reinhardt's picture, will ap

Dr. Paul Miller said the
two proposed bills LB666
and LB667 would meet re
sistance from the Omaha
School Board because the
bills failed to call for devel

network's programs, as pro
posed, would be of little value
to Omaha school children.
Dr. Miller said that state
colleges should help to devel
op the ETV program, not just

in present programs.
Dr. Miller said that under
these present bills Omahans
