No Surtax

On this page, headed " A Surtax,'-- TIME for Oct. 1 stated:

Hindus, Chinese, Siberians and other foreigners desiring instruction from the University of California must henceforth pay a $50.00 fee over and above the $150.00 demanded of all students who are not California citizens.

The source of this information, the San Francisco Chronicle, has since been declared in error by the Assistant Dean and the Comptroller of the University of California. " Nonresident aliens and nonresident students of the United States are treated exactly alike."
