The college deans, Hilton met Saturday, round afternoon table at airing of their problems.

How Cost Is Met The compact has been working for three years and effectively Mexico, for example, now has some 20 students studying medicine and veterinary medicine in Colorado institutions. The arrangement for meeting the cost of medical instruction the University of Colorado Medical School is borne partly by the state where the student lives and partly by the individual student. If, for example, the cost $2600 a year for medical dent. the state where he lives contributes about $2000 with the student chipping in about $600. the cost to a resident student of Colorado.

Delegates from Colorado, Utah and Oregon, medical instruction is available, expressed a willingness to go along with the arrangement as far as they could swing the deal financially. California May Join Even states not officially in the compact, such as California, spoke freely for the plan and stated that they felt reasonably sure that California would eventually join the compact. Vice President Robert D. Fisher of the University of Southern California and Provost Douglas M. Whitaker of Stanford both said their institutions would be glad to contribute to the compact arrangement.

Popejoy said he felt at this time the agreement should limit itself to instruction in the health sciences which were in greatest need of a boost in the West. He said also that, in order not to exploit the resources of the institutions in the West, the "havenot" states should try to obtain medical instruction at institutions Dr. G. the.

In full swing, the compact now has employed a full-time executive director, Dr. William C. Jones or Eugene, Ore. A suggestion that the western states extend their co-operation beyond medicine, dentistry and veterinary medicine was made by Dr.

Jones in a talk on the status professional and technical education in the West. Fields such as journalism and forestry, he said, should be surveyed to see if they serve the purpose of the state and to seek methods of interstate co-operation in the specialized fields. States now in the compact are: Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah and Wyoming. Washington, California and Nevada are not yet members since their state legislatures have not ratified the compact. At 10 a.
