Opium ban bombs By JACK ANDERSON WASHINGTON The Turkish decision to resume opium production, inevitably, will Cause a new crime spree on the streets of America. For the heroin that comes from Turkish opium has always been easy to smuggle into the United States The new influx of heroin will bring with it drug addiction and street crimes. It was to reduce the crime rate that the U.S. paid Turkey more than $35 million a year to halt opium production. This dwindied the heroin flow and reduced violent crimes in American cities. But now Turkey is going to end the opium ban Washington observers saw it coming Several congressional study missions warned that the Turks would resume opium production and urged the President to intervene The same waming came from American William Macomber in Turkey. He repeatedly requested instructions, accord- ing to Our sources, On how to deal with the problem. But the policy makers in Washington didn't even bother to answer his urgent secret cables Now it is too late to bargain with the Turks. The only recourse ‘eft is to cut off economic and military aid to Turkey. The State Department considers this too drastic, because Turkey is a valuable NATO ally Because the White House waited too long, it Now looks as if the country will be hit Dy a new wave of addiction and crime Terrorist Blackmail: Vashington of- ficials are secretly alarmed that terrorists soon will be able to blackmail the government with nuclear weapons The security of nuclear weapons, just believe, is inadequate.

They were able to break into nuclear weapons stockpiles, which they concluded were “dangerously vulnerable.” AS an expert put it, the security system iS people weak.” Last year alone, around three thousand persons with acoess to nuclear weapons were fired.

By JOHN GHRIST (CPS)-Five midwestern state universities have established a joint educational institution which will produce multi-media college Courses people can take for credit in their own homes Known as the University of Mid-America (UMA), the school was incorporated in Nebraska in late July through the combined efforts of the University of Nebraska, the University of Kansas, Kansas State University, lowa State University and the University of Missouri Initial plans call for the development of approximately 55 courses in general education, vocational and some spacific major fields. Eventually, 40 to 45 of the courses will provide the equivalent of the first two years of a regular undergraduate aducation, while the rest of the courses will deal with advanced and special xJult-education courses. Other school will aso be invited to join throughout the Midwest Courses will be developed § for cooperating schools through UMA by the SUN (State University of Nebraska) Project, a pilot program developed over the ast three years Each course is created by a team of professionals in education as well as the writing and technical end of television This tearm will formulate the course and prepare programs and supplementary material Persons wishing to take a course wil! arrange to do so through the registrar at a s0operating university.

At the end of the course edits will be awarded by the cooperating institution In Nebraska, courses are broadcast over the state educational television network. Plans for distribution of the 2ourse programs in the other states, which don't have similar education networks are still being worked out.

According to Raymond Wormwood, a spokesman for NIE, the idea is being greeted with enthusiasm by the Institute, but the funding has been thrown into doubt because Congress appears ready to cut the NIE budget. Supplementary funding for specific courses is being sought from the National Endowment for the Humanities and other sources. Tuition, another source of income, wil! be heid at the sarne level of tuition at the cooperating universities. This fall in Nebraska, tuition will be $18 per hour for those wishing to audit the courses — the same figures as resident tuition at the University of Nebraska. This two-tier tuition plan will have a third step for persons 0° low income, who will not be asked to pay full tuition. A formal plan for UMA tuition will be released by UMA Trustees next month. The UMA project has been hailed as a major step forward in the establishment of a regional “open learning” center which will provide college-level education for area citizens. Initially UMA will supplement existing adult education programs, acting on the producer of courses and a consultant on operations at cooperating schools. But eventually the UMA may be educationally and financially seif-sufficient—perhaps even granting degrees of its own once the initial five-year organizational period is complete She gets by with a little help from her friend (From Conservation News)-We recently received a fascinating little story from Dr. Arthur G.
