The intelligent, far-seeing leaders in the state's political and educational -life agree that the University deserves support from the people of the state in this time of great need. At the alumni meeting which met in Chapel Hill the early part of De cember, support was pledged to President Graham in his at tempt to convey to the people of the state the background of the budget request of the University. To the University alumni the most important factor to be dis cussed at their meeting was how to meet the financial require ments of the University during Coffman Will Address Philology Club Tonight The philological club will con vene for it's first meeting of the new year tonight in the lounge of the Graduate club, Smith building, at 7 :30 o'clock, x The speaker of the evening will be Dr. George R.

Alumni Heard Budget Plan To this group President Gra ham presented in a speech the budget plan for the coming year that the appropriation requested of the legislature for the coming year was nearly one-fourth low er than that asked for in 1929. This request "represents, a per centage reduction greater than that sustained by the general run of American colleges and universities ..... Since 1929 the University of North has suffered a total appropri ation cut of 43.6 per cent." In attempting to demonstrate to the people that the University is really deserving of their sup port, Dr. Graham shows the out standing recognition that the in stitution has received through out the world. Besides being the first state university to open its doors, it "stands among the first in the distinction of its faculty, standards of work, quality of scholarship, research, and pro ductive output. Many outstand ing men have paid tribute to the University as a leader in new fields of research and liberal education." Favorable World Comment Harold J.

"When the Westerner ap proaches the dance of the East, it is useless for him to attempt to 'understand' it ; to "do so is merely to raise a barrier that cannot be penetrated." Thus writes John Martin, in the New York Times, after reviewing the Hindu program presented by Shankar and his dancers, who will appear in Memorial hall to night at 8:30 o'clock, as the fifth in the series of student enter tainments at the University throughout the year.

Woodhouse ad dressed a large audience yester day in Gerrard hall at the weekly lecture conducted by the Bull's Head. Professor Wood- house' subject was "Technocracy as applied to Government," and the speech consisted of his ideas on this latest bugaboo of capital ism. Woodhouse admitted his in adequacy as interpreting the true meaning of technocracy, but gave an illuminating dis course on the impractibility and inadvisability of the plan which is being promulgated by a group of economists under Howard Scott, at Columbia University. An open discussion after the lecture was well participated in, and included varied views on Woodhouse' definition and the idea itself. The talk was originally to have been presented in the Bull's Head room in the Y. M. C. A., but due to the excessive interest manifested by the large attend ance, the meeting place was changed to Gerrard -hall. at the Carolina Inn Sunday eve- dollar.
