MELBY STRESSES
STATE SCHOOLS’
FINANCIAL LAG
DECLARES MONTANA AT BOTTOM
IN WEST FOR SUPPORT
GIVEN EDUCATION
America’s educational Institutions
are faced with their greatest responsi
bility In history in helping to wifi the
war and prepare for the problems of
a postwar world, Dr. E. O. Melby em
phaszed in a special convocation on
the campus of Montana State uni
versity recently.
Talking to students, faculty, and
friends of the University on "Educa
tion in Wartime,” the University
president stressed the need for higher
education and its generous support if
“a stable and humane world order is
to be developed.”
As part of countrywide, effort to
furnish the leadership required for
this gigantic effort, President Malby
declared that all the six units of
higher education in Montana must be
equipped “to meet the responsibilities
which the war and postwar world will
bring to their doors.”
The postwar world confronts higher
education with the greatest responsi
bility in its history," the educator
pointed out. “The conduct of the war
is necessitating new patterns of gov
ernment and new types of economic
organization. It is making drafts upon
our human resources and our technic
ally trained men and women which
are difficult to meet.”
The United States will have to cope
with the necessity for supplying
leadership for the rest of the world,
Dr. Melby said.
Re-education Required
“This precess of rebuilding will be
educational and Ideological as well as
economic and physical. Occupied
countries will need 'to be reeducated
as a result of Nazi infiltration of re
cent years. Food will need to be sup
plied, and health conditions will need
to be improved. New patterns of
government must be devised. Wartom
cities must be rebuilt. In all of this
activity there will be the greatest need
for leadership on the part of large
numbers of university trained men
and women.”
A leading role must be played by
institutions of higher education in
reconstructing a war-torn world. Melby
stated. Of these institutions, state
universities, because of their official
relationships, must necessarily show
the way.
“Our universities have a conspicuous
role to play in this vast program of
reconstruction and world stabiliza
tion,” he explained. “If they are to
play this role successfully, they must
come to grips with the problems which
have tom the world asunder."
Three important tasks confront the
universities in accomplishing this end,
the university president said. Students
in the universities must be given a
conception of the importance of
technology in the modern world. In
the second place, they should be given
the American tradition of freedom
but with a worldwide basis cf appli
cation. Finally, they should under
stand the underlying problems which
must be solved to insure a lasting
peace.
“The development of a stable and ।
humane world order is not a task to
be achieved within a few months or'
a few years,” Dr. Melby emphasized, I
It will take generations for its;
achievement. In the process states-;
manship of the highest order will be
required, and understanding leader
ship in every field of human activity.
The large numbers of college men and
women in America must assume an
active role in this important under- [
taking. They cannot do so unless the
college curriculum comes to grips with
problems of international relations
and deals vigorously with racial and
national understanding.
Difficulties Cited
"Montana State university ap
proaches its responsibilities in the war
and the postwar period with a full
realization of the difficulties involved.
It is handicapped by the fact that in
the past 20 years it has received a
level of support which has failed to
equip it effectively for the tasks that
are to come."
“Some conception of the inadequacy,
with which our institutions of higher
education in Montana have been sup
ported,” President Melby said, can be
gained by a study of the record as
revealed in a survey made this fall
by two members of Montana State
university's faculty—Dr. Roy J. W. Ely.
of the department of economics, and
Dr. Bert R. Sappenfield, of the
psychology department.
Their study covered the whole sys
tem of higer education in Montana Dr. '
Melby emphasized. It also made direct
comparisons with Montana’s six
neighbor states—North Dakota', Minn
esota. Wyoming. Idaho, Washington,
and Oregon.
"If the money, spent by each of the
seven states for higher education was
figured on the basis of each man,
woman, and child in each state, Mon
tana would be at the bottom." Du
Melby declared. “For this state ap
propriates only $1.53 per capita for
higher education as comnared with
Idaho, the pace-setter, which fur
nishes $2.29.
"Or to look at It another way—it
you divided the total amount spent by
each state for higher education among
the regular college and university
students In that state, again Montana
would be St the tail end of the pro
cession. Only North Dakota spends
less for each college student than
Montana.
“Montana gave each of Its boys and
girls $158.47 for their college educa
tion in 1939-40 Minnesota furnished
$282.55 in comparison and Idaho was
In second place with $254.82."
Poverty Not Responsible
But Montana's higher educational
situation is not due to poverty within
the state, Dr. Melby pointed out. For
the Treasure state “has the riches and
wealth to support its colleges and uni
versities.”
“Only one state among the seven
has greater economic ability in re-

Big game hunters find that it is

lation to educational facilities,” Dr.
Melby continued. "Wyoming sur-;
passes otir state on that score. From
the viewpoint of economic capacity,
which means productive power, Mon
tana is right up near the top In second
place, and leading Idaho, Minnesota,
Washington, Oregon, and North
Dakota.",
Despite the fact, however, that
North Dakota trails In economic capa
city and thus has less money thaq
any of the seven, President Melby
said, "she spends more of it to sup
port her colleges.” Montana, on the
other hand, although second in econ
omic capacity, was last in the amount
of money devoted to higher education.
"In the months and years to come,
our Montana colleges thus face a
double task," he said. “They must
meet the responsibilities which the
war and postwar world will bring to
their doors, and they must simultan
eously give the people of our state
such an understanding of the prob
lems of higher education and of the
needs of our institution that adequate
support will be forthcoming.
Without such support these Institu
tions will not be able to cope success
fully with the responsibilities now
confronting higher education In our
country."

Montana Youth Describes
That First ? Chute Jump
Nerves receive a severe test beforei
one’s first parachute Jump, but in the
final moments preceding the test, one
grows calm and eager to have it done.
After landing and finding no Injuries
one becomes decidedly “jump happy.”
At least that’s the way the experi
ence is related by a Billings man, now
Captain Don Pay of the United States
paratroop forces. Pay worked for a
year at the Chapple’s Inc., store before
he was called up for military service
in the fall of 1940. His wife makes
her home at Colmbus, Ga., near Fort
Benning, Ga., where Captain Pay is on
duty.
In a letter to his father, M. B. Pay
of Wilsall, Captain Pay describes his
first parachute jump, which followed
a three-month period of training at
Camp Toccoa, Ga., and which was
part of qualifying for his commission.
A low-flying celling prevented two
Jumps scheduled for the first day, and
it was three days later before the of
ficer candidates had their chance.
Captain Pay said that wait added to
the nerve tension of all.
“We stand in line awaiting to get
into the plane,” he wrote, “impatient,
yet dreading the final moments. After
the takeoff the "jumpmaster’’ issues
instructions and asks if there are any
questions. There are none—in fact, no
one is making a sound . . . Someone
nervously lights a clgaret, trying to
look unconcerned, but you know he’s
more scared than he has ever been in
his life.
“The ‘jumpmaster’ yells, ‘Stand up.’
You don’t feel as though your legs
will support you—but you get to your
feet and grasp the ‘anchor line’ with
your right hand to steady yourself,
for the plane is lurching up and down.
Your left hand holds your anchor line
snap fastener. ‘Hook up’ is your next
command, and you obey automatically
... He has us check equipment and
after that he says, ‘Stand to door.’ The
time has come—that dreaded moment
—but suddenly you feel calm and alert,
you are no longer shaking, but are
anxious to get to the door . . . waiting
tensely for that slap on the leg when
the ‘jumpmaster’ yells ’Go’ ....
"You take off like a big bird—mak
ing a body turn In the air, your feet
together, both hands across the front
of your reserve ’chute . . . You begin
to count . . . Before you complete say
ing ’Two thousand’ you feel the open
ing shock and you know your ’chute
Is open . . . and you begin to feel
yourself swinging like a pendulum on
a clock . . . Then you maneuver your
back to the wind so as to come in for
ward. Suddenly you hit and you are
on the ground. You roll over and grasp
the suspension Une and collapse the
canopy, unsnap the harness and crawl
out. You really get ’jump happy’ when
you are on the ground and know you
are not hurt anywhere.

EDUCATION PAY?
FIGURES RELEASED ON EARN-
INGS OF FORESTRY STU
DENTS SHOW IT DOES
Does a college education pay? Right
now that question is uppermost in
young American minds, more than
ever before. Industry and business
seem to be offering unusual oppor-
I tunltles to people with Uttle or no
training, and those who have had
j higher education apparently have no
I better status than the un-schooled
i workers.
From a practical standpoint, how
ever, actual statistics show differently.
Men and women with a college educa
tion not only have more prominence
In their vocational fields, they make
more money. This fact has been
proved by a survey of the positions
and salaries of graduates of the
school of forestry of Montana State
university.
Graduates of the forestry school up
to and Including 1941 totaled 394. Of
the men who graduated during the
period from 1910 to 1915, the weighted
average income tri 1941 was $5,243,
with a $6,000 maximum and $3,860
, minimum. Men who graduated in the
period from 1936 to 1940 earn an
‘ average Income of $2,038, with a maxi
mum of over $4,000 and a minimum of
$l,lOO. Those graduating in the in-
I tervening years earn Incomes averag
' Ing between $4,750 a year and $2,600.,
These figures were compiled from
|72 percent of the total number of
I graduates, 84 of whom are in the
. armed services, and 94 of whom the
I available records are Incomplete. The
;72 percent sampling Is well dis
। tributed and sufficiently large to be
; Indicative.
Though wages have gone sky high
। this year, official government figures
I reveal that the average Income of
I the American wage earners for the
I period June, 1942 to June, 1943 is still
only about $990. In 1940 the average
! Income for the entire country
amounted to $573, and for Montana
$579, yearly. This information is from
trade and professional associations, a
government survey complied by C. J.
Judkins.
| Contrasting the $579 yearly average
income with the average Income of the
forestry school graduates which
amounted to $2,670, Including the fig
ures on very recent graduates, one
। sees that the college graduate earns
four times as much as the average
man, on the basis of these figures.
Reetgrowers Adopt
Several Resolutions
The Montana-Wyoming Beetgorwers
association, meeting at Billings, adopt
ed several resolutions to be presented
to the national convention. Chief
among these was a proposal to es
tablish sugar beet goals for 1943. Others
were:
1. Adoption of a food rationing pro
gram as a more favorable solution to
food consumption problems than cur
rent proposals for increased produc
tion.
2. Support by the national associa
tion of a sound agricultural policy
other than governmental subsidies to
farmers.
3. That the problem of agricultural
production be met by first solving the
labor and priorities problems.
4. Firm opposition to a current pro
posal that the president be granted
power to “disturb" tariff restrictions.
5. Request of congress to re-examine
and clarify those laws pertaining to
labor.

State Soldiers Want
Montana Flag to Fly
Montana patriotic organizations
have been asked by Gov. Sam C. Ford
for financial assistance to "keep the
Montana flag flying" in army posts
wherever Montana men are serving.
His action came after receipt of
letters from men In service asking for
replicas of the state flag. He quoted
one from Pvt. Leonard D. Little, a
Montana man at Camp Roberts, Calif.,
as typical:
“In the U. S. O. club In San Miguel
the closest adjoining town, there are
flags of very nearly all the states,
presented to the club by these various
states.
“There Isn’t however, any from
Montana, and, as there are quite a
few boys here from Montana, we feel
a little slighted in this matter. Even
if you, as governor of the state, can
not do anything about it, you may
know someone who will help in this
matter and oblige a bunch of Montana
boys In Camp Roberts.”
Ford replied that he is "calling your
letter to the attention of the press in
hope that patriotic organizations and
other groups may feel inclined to help
you out In the matter and raise funds
for this purpose. I assure you that the
people of Montana are proud of their
sons inthe service and they want to
do everything possible to be worthy of
them in this grave hour." He said the
state has no funds with which to pur
chase flag replicas.
Patents recently have been awarded
for these novel inventions: A portable
garage which rolls behind the car like
a trailer. A sanitary door mat, satur
ated with disinfectant, which kills
germs on the bottom of the shoe. An
auto horn attachment which prevents
the horn from being tooted when car
is standing still or traveling less than
3 miles an hour.
