Committee Advocates
Amending Constitution
Austin—The Committee
for Higher Education today
advocated adoption of a
constitutional amendment
aimed at solving building
problems of the state-
supported colleges and
universities for the next
20 years without increased
taxes.
The committee .headed by
Tom Sealy of Midland, was
organized by the governing
boards of the state col-
leges and universities to
explain the amendment and
work for its passage.
"In the effort to be just
and right throughout this
campaign, we are leaving
no stone unturned to have ■
every detail of our plea to
the public on a factual bas -
is," said Sealy. "We have
conducted intensive re-
search over the past nine
months to support our en-
dorsement of this amend-
ment, which itself is the
result of more than three
years' study by the people
most c 1 o s e ly acquainted
with the building problem
of our growing colleges."
Sealy, as spokesman for
the Committee for Higher
Education, urged all per-
sons interested in the wel-
fare of higher education to
encourage their friends to
vote for Amendment 3, the
college building amend-
ment, at the Nov. 6 Gener-
al Election.
"Any effort made in the
amendment's behalf will
not only be for the better-
ment of your institution,
but will also be a personal
contribution to the youth of
Texas," Sealy said in a
prepared statement issued
through the Committee’s
office in Austin.
