Editorial: College funding crisis and tuition pressures
The editorial argues in a time of recession and inflation that California and New York face college cost pressures but cannot solve deficits by higher tuition alone. It contrasts state and private universities, criticizes Governor Reagan’s budget cutting proposals, and warns that substantial cuts risk harming students and the state while Princeton’s private model remains economically stronger.

Washington plans revenue sharing with wary federal oversight
The administration proposes a 5 billion revenue sharing fund for states and communities but adds qualifiers that draw federal scrutiny over spending. Officials say all funded activities would be audited to prevent discrimination and ensure lawful use of money, with quarterly reports to the treasury and possible oversight if funds are mixed into general funds. Weidenbaum notes oversight would focus on two main aspects.

National Bureau Chief William Broom notes the Nixon administration aims to shift power from Washington to states and locals by revenue sharing. The plan would end federal approval needs for local programs yet invite far broader federal scrutiny and independent audits where none exist.
