Included in the University's capital outlay request is $2,800,- 000 for a Medical School out- patient clinic and $2,700,000 for an addition to the General Li- brary. Budgetary problems have occu- pied the Legislature almost ex- clusively since the opening of the special off-year session March 15. * * AFTER THE OPENING session the Republican-dominated Legis- lature hastened to reject Gov. Wil- liams' unbalanced budget and proposed corporation tax and set about writing a budget of their own which would keep within ex- pected state revenue for 1950-51. They are still at it, but if the tentative adjournment date is to be met, appropriations bills will have to start rolling out of com- mittee fairly soon. Reveal Two Of Leinin's Statements By BOB VAUGHN Belief that Communism and Capitalism can peacefully co-exist was expressed recently in the Ma- gazine Bolshevik which released two statements by Vladimir Lenin never before published in Russia. Originally published abroad in 1920, but not in Russia, the state- ments were in answer to queries advanced by two correspondents, one representing a British paper and the other what was then the New York Evening Journal. * * * QUESTIONED ABOUT a basis for peace by the American news- paper man, Lenin, founder of the Communist party replied, accord- ing to the magazine: "Let the American Capitalists not touch us. We will not touch them. We are prepared even to pay in gold for machines, equip- ment, etc., useful in transport and production, and not only gold, but also raw material." In reply to the Briton's question about deportation of revolution- aries from the United States at that time, Bolshevik quoted Lenin as saying Russia had received these persons and did not fear them. * *' * "IF AMERICA fears still more hundreds of thousands of its citi- zens, we are prepared to begin talks on our receiving all - every citizen fearsome to America." Lenin's willingness to enter business relations with the Uni- ted States and his desire for peace were expressed in the statements, according to Bol- shevik. Frequent resurrection of state- ments of Lenin and old statements of Stalin has been made in the past by Moscow when it served a particular purpose. But this ex- pression of willingness to do busi- ness with the United States is an unusual theme for these times.

Television A survey measuring the influ- ence that TV has on family groups has announced that people who own television sets see fewer films, read less and listen to the radio less than before they purchased the sets. This study was published of Charles Alldridge Feb. 7 in Wash- ington and was sponsored by film, radio, and newspaper interests. This survey also showed that TV families spend more of their free time at home.
