Among those favorable to the printing plant is President Smith, who will seek the necessary presses from war surplus prop erty. According to Smith, if such machinery is found to be -judged as surplus property, it ' could be L obtained for five per cent of its estimated value. Upon receipt of a list of the required presses from the committee, President Smith will apply for them. In the interim, the committee is investigating the annual cost of printing for the University. A sur- as vey in November showed that the Je publication costs for 1946 were M near $80,000. cc The committee is determining ar the type presses that will be need ed and their' cost. An estimate m made by Vogue Press, which c1 prints the Gamecock, is that the ti retail cost of equipping such an na enterprise would be from 60 to to 70 thousand dollars. However, th surplus property presses would $( cost much less, as the estimated Y value is rated as approximately be one-half of the retail value. lo The purposes for the proposed plans are that the plant would in prove an economy to the Univer- ar sity and also enable journalism lo, students to gain a working knowl- of edge of the mechanical side of er printing. ir Of "Review" For S Eo Be Managing And Mart G.

The trus tees expressed their inability to loan state funds without legal au thority, but suggested two pos sible courses of action. Either an affirmative ruling from At torney-General John M. Daniel, or an act of the legislature would make the appropriation forth coming. It is reported that both these courses are being pursued to their fullest extent. President Smith has written the attorney-general requesting the latter's ruling which would temporarily supply, the present need for loan funds. The General assembly will be asked to take action when it con venes here today. Belief was expressed that most of the veterans now enrolled have received their subsistence checks, but a similar delay of pay to vet eran-students who will enroll in later terms, was expected. Vet erans throughout the state who are expected to enroll next month are being advised that delays of from one to two months in re ceiving their subsistence pay is to be expected.
