Hallmark Bill'

Of The Assembly

By WILLIAM A. SHIRES

ENACTThe higher education blU now scheduled for early conslderatl(m (hi the floor has been labeled hallmark legislar tion for the 1963 General Assembly.

Enactment of the 47-page higher education bill almost in its entirety appears certain. It has overwhelming support in both houses and has encountered little difficulty in ccanmittee in fact less than expected.

What opposition arises now In floor debate is expected to come on relatively minor points and be swept aside.

There are some side Issues and disputes about certain specifics, but the bill has come through committee in good shape. The only serious wrangle occurred on the question of name-changing In the University system and this was overcome. Others may arise in appropriations to implement some of the specific recommendar tions, but the overall bill itself has reached the floor virtually intact.

HALLMARKThe thing to remember is that toe higher education bill does not work drastic or dramatic changes overnight.

No new four year senior colleges, network of many community colleges nor vast new University programs will spring up Immediately. Rather, the bill is basically a blueprint. Its authors call it a master plan for future development and

reccHnmendaUoos made hy the Governors Oxnmlssion on Edo-catioQ Beycmd the Iflgh Schocd.

Its backens say oiactment wUl give North Carolina the statutory framework on which to build and develop a broad and hopefully adequate system of higher education community colleges, four-year colleges and an outstanding University systemin an orderly, efficient way.

At least this is the overall, perhaps overly optimistic view of those who wrote and who are pushing the bill. For legis- lators, however, the facts they set out are convincing.

NEEDSImmediately aiiead, the authors of the higher education program point to the projected increase in college enrollments in North Carolina and a need to take care of an enrollment increase of 32,000 students by 1970.

The Carlyle Commission said it is essential that growth be well-planned and ccxHxUnated if the publics investment. . .is to produce msucimum returns.

The State Board of Higher Education, which also played a ipajor role in shaping toe plan, said we envisage a system of higher education consisting of comprehensive (XHnmunlty colleges, senior colleges and the University. . .all Interelated but each having responsibilities that differ in range and kind. . .a solid educational pyramid comprised of ccMTimunity and junior collies at its base, at the second level the senior colleges

Announcement that our first family expects a new baby in August can only inadequately be called nice.

The prospect inspires a pleasant glow of anticipation and well-wishing. About what youd expect if an aunt and uncle let the rest of the family in on their secret.

It is one more reminder that the White House is today occupied by a young and growing family; exemplifying in many ways the image of America we would choose to project; ,

A renaissance of the cultural side of life; art earnest spirit of dedication to the responsibilities at

hand; the chatter of small children in the back- _______

ground; a participation in social, civic and religious gy HAL BOYLE functions; a healthy interest in the out-of-doors; close family ties. All these, and more, facets of what is loosely described as modem Americana, and ... in fact . . prevailing among millions of U.S. families.

It is entirely in keeping with this projected image of the American family that there be an announcement of the expected addition. No wonder

Its backers do claim that the higher education bl will be remembered longer and have more far-reaching effect for the future than anything else this legislature does.

This is the best sort of pfcy-cholc^ical pi-eparation for a mar Jor new legislative program.

It works because each General Assembly wants to consider and enact some major and significant program for which It will be rememberedsomething of long lasting effect that marks It,

NEEDS The long-range higher education program fits this pattern perfectly.

It is designed to meet a challenge with an orderly, careful chronological plan based on meeting needs as they arise, and at a time when the needs are coming Into view. It culminates studies that have been going on for a number of years and embodies the principal points in a set of 61 specific

vanced centers of advanced study and research the universities of the state.

EFFECTSThe higher education bill, in effect, would implement this sort of plan, complete with standards, procedures, timetables, legal .definitions, budget and administrative functions and jurisdiction.

Salient points of the legislative program are these:

Establishing the one University concept for the existing branches of the Consolidated University of North Carolina, set out standards and procedures for establishing additional University campuses, and define functions of the University.

Set up a timetable and procedures for establishing additional four-year senior colleges at Charlotte. WUmlngton and Asheville-Blltmore.

Statutory authority and definition for a system of comprehensive, two-year c<Mnmunity colleges, and place these under the State Board of Education.

Hi - ' ""V I

By JAMES MARLOW WASHINGTON (AP) Some (tf the most important talks in the world like a man feeling his way in a smoke - filled ro(n. Theres an uncertainty alxHit them.

For years the United States has been talking with the Russians about agreeing to a ban on nuclear tests. No agreement is viable. If it sh(Hild come there would be a new uncertainty instantly: Would the Senate >prove?

If not, then all the conversa-tlcMis would have been nonsense. The Senates final say <m this Is hardly mentioned in this period when the first order of business is to try to get a Russian agreement.

Next, the United States has been busy busy with its 14 Atlantic allies to set up a NATO nuclear force. From a politi<l standpoint this may have some value.

It might give the allies a greater sense of participation In their ovm destiny by eciulpping them with nuclear weapcms at a time when the United States and Russia alone are the nuclear giants.

If, through such a sense of participation the allies developed a closer feeling of unity, the idea of a NATO nuclear force might be worthwhile. And that does seem to be about all there is to the idea.

If thats an it Is the Kennedy administration has been far from clear cm any of this the whole business could turn out to be little more than a gimmick for this reason: Control of American nuclear weapcms the ability and de-cisicMi to fire them must remain In American hands, meaning the Presidents. TiuUs exactly how it Is now.

Beftme the idea could go further letting aUics equipped with American nuclear weapons make their own decisions about using them Congress would have to change the law.

If you were one of the European allies and the United States alone had control of the nuclear weapons which are the defense of Eunsm you might be troubled by this idea, as some Europeans are:

*' Suppose in a European crisis with Russia the United States refused to get into a nuclear war if it meant backing up its

allies. You might feel, as President de Gaulle of Prance does, that youd want your own nuclear weapons.

But if every country had its own stockpile of nuclear bombs in or out of the alliance, the chance of nucjlear war, by acci dent or design, would be increased.

So what toe United States Is doing now talking of the so-called NATO nucleatr force is an attempt to make the allies feel they have full American backing.

But in the end, under present law, the allies <x>uldnt use the weapons.

Congress would hardly change the law letting the allies make the decisitm on when and where to use American nuclear bombs without insisting the United States must retain some veto over allied use of its weapons.

It isnt hard to imagine the tortured arguments with the allies over this and the debates in C(Higress. But if the United States did have such a veto, then thered be no difference from the present situation in which the United States alone has the say over use of the weapons.

But if the United States had a veto over the use of the weapons, then each of the allies, at least the big ones, would probably insist on having a veto, too.

That creates a pretty picture: a decision to use nuclear weapons if Russia started an attack might be necessary in a matter of seconds or minutes at the most.

There wouldnt be much time for arguing about a veto. The Kennedy administration has left this whole idea of a NATO nuclear force in a fog. The ICMig-er the fog persists, the more certain it is to create skepticism.

Other Editors Saying.. The Incentive Program

(Rocky Mount Telegram)

A new kind of boost-educa-tion proposal has been made in toe General Assembly that should silence the criti( of the cxMnmunity college program, while the latter has been merits, there are those who say we should use to the fullest extent the existing facilities of colleges already in extetence. The latest proposal in the General Assembly would help do this.

The plan would provide state funds for North Carolinians attending private colleges in the state. An estimated 75 per cent of toe 22,000 Tar Heels now in the private colleges would be eligible for grants of from $50 to $100 per semester. It would cost the state about $3 million a year, but would in the laig run save the state money.

It already costs the state an estimated $7O0 annually for each student in the state institutions. Thus, under the program, the state would save about $500 for every student who would utilize the program. Too, it would be a tremendous value to the private colleges of stsitc

There can be little argument that the program would help meet a desperate need. At the present time North Carolina ranks 46th amcHig the states in the number of young people 18 to 21 years of age attending college. While Gov. Sanford has said improved educatl(xi la the states main goal, this would be chfficult to achieve with present high costs of education. The fact is. dormitory fees, tultiOT and other costs are pricing too

many students right out of college.

True, community colleges would help make higher education facilities available to more students, but at the same time more advantage should be taken <rf present college facilities. Many privsite Institutions are having difficulty financially, 4)ut since their physical facilites are already in existence why not utilize them?

The name of the new proposal is appropriate: scholar incentive program. Through its funds it is hoped that more high school graduates wlU go (mi to further their education. With the state ranking 46th in this field, its obvious we have our work cut out for us if we expect to Improve the education picture in North Carolina.

The new incentive program has plenty of support. The Sanford administration is backing it - stnxigly. Already 93 members of tlw General Assembly have signed it, more than en(Migh to insure Its passage in both houses. And 25 or 30 private colleges have already signalled their support of the proposal.

Of course, all this support does not guarantee su(M;ess of the project even after It is put Into operation. R Is not exactly a new idea In student support: the federal government carried on a gigantic GI BUI program after World War n, a program hailed as a tremendous success, giving opportunity to literally millions of students. There is no reason such a program on the state levd cant be ecjutUy successful.

Rumor

By JOHN CHAMBERLAIN Copyright, 1963, King Features Syndicate, Inc.

The rumors onanate from Italian circles that Khrushchev is having trouble maintaining himself in power in the Kremlin. and a shudder immediately through the capitals of the West. A strange thing, this very IMdiible fact that democratic, statesmen trmble lest man who ha swom to bury them should lose his place. The fear, as George Sokolsky ^d to put it, is that an Albanian

mwaning a man who would tmmedlately set Russian tnws to marching on West Berlin might take over in Moscow. So we try to settle for what seems to be the lesser evil.

The result of doing our collective best to keep Khrushchev in power is an almost Incredible softness in Western foreign policies and in Western poUcal ^ thinking in general, A liberal weekly. The New Republic, can print an accusation that the U.

S. Central Intelligence Agency actually plotted and helped carry out the assassination of dictator Trujillo of toe Dominican Republic, which is interesting if true. But perish the thought that anybody working out of the U. S. might try by direct | means to get rid of CJastro. Russian tr(XM?s in Havana might get hurt in any revolutionary melee, and if Khrushchev were to abandon his noen in Cuba the hardline Albanians tn the Kremlin might stage a coup detat. So Washington lnv(*es our neutrality to make it difficult for Cuban patriots to stage raids on Castro shipping fr(Mn British Ba-haman bases a queer <mhi-struction of the law by a nation that allowed arms to go to Castro in the first place and. later, gave at least tacit support to the abortive invasion at the Bay of Pigs.

Coincident with our accom-m(x)ati(xi of Khrushchev in (hi-ba is -the move to establish a hot wire that will enable the White House to <mmtinicate directly with the big boss in the Kremlin. The excuse is that swift person . to - person talk might serve to keep a ticklish situation from degenerating into nuclesLT war. The theory behind this is that Khrushchev will always remain amenable to friendly reason.

Since a hot wire is a piece of machinery, It is neutral is Itself. Being neutral, it could be used for any purpose, frtwi blackmail and bluff to complete and utter deceptlim. What if we had had a hot wire to Tokyo in December of 1941? A Japanese government, bent on masking the true intent of the mUitarists. would assuredy have cooed soft blandishments over the wire until the time had come for the strike at Pearl Harbor, For dome.stlc purposes Khrushchev has repudiated the cult of the leader Stalin, hut so far as the outer world I concerned he has never denounced Stalins statement that holiest diplomacy Is like dry water. a contradiction in terms. Is it likely that he would uae a hot wire to help keep tie peace If he were actually bent (Ml war? Or, if he is bent *n peace, woultl he use the wtts in a way that might result In the West preserving the peate on Its own terms?

When the Pope addresses a plea to the world to end ths nuclear arms race and to change the structure of the U. S. to enable it to compel the natlcMis to settle their differences amicably, it strikes a responsive chord In anyone who has a heart. But the assumption behind the Popes encyclical, Peace On Eaito, is that men of heart have the power to per-suacte their rulers everywhere. When the Pope talks with Alex-sei Adzhubel and his wife, who happens to be Khrushchevs daughter, in his private library, it Is ob'sdous that the Vatican has hopes that a thaw can be encouraged to some extent when the Kremlin permits the Polish Archbishop Joseph Slipyi of Lwow to leave Siberia after a de-tenti(Mi that has lasted eighteen years. But does this mean that the Kremlin, which is dominated by self - proclaimed atheists, is really susceptible in any fundamental way to Ohristian thinking? Can (me hope for anything better than an occasl(mal-ly encouraging tactical maneuver from a government that Is dedicated to the l(Mig . term strategy of digging the grave of the capitalist West?

More Foreign Travel This Year

Strength For Today

By EARL L. DOUGLASS THOUGHT BEHIND ACTION

Jesus made It plain that purity consists not just In abstaining from Impure acts but in abstaining also from Impure thoughts. He declared on one oo-casion that whosoever looketh (m a w(Hnan to lust after her hath (jommltted adultery with her already in his heart (Matt. 5:28).

This is a high standard, but the standard has to be put at this height if one expects to Uve a clean Ufe. It Is utterly amazing the magazine., that are permitted to be printed today and sent through the mail whose only object Is to arouse immoral desires. Boys and girls, men and wiMnen, are (jonstantly being assailed by influences which twid to arouse evU desires within their hearts.

Let us get this well tn mind

good and evil both begin in the mind. Occasi(mally there Is a blow struck which is not premeditated or a hot word uttered which sears and wounds. But for the most part evil has behind It a preparation c(msisting chiefly of brooding.. Pe(H)le think a lot of evil before they commit /evU. They imagine with eagerness the go(xi time they can have spending m(mey before they steal it. Sexual sin is almost always preceded by much unwholesome brooding. People who make a business of stirring up evil thoughts, especially in the minds of youth, should get a heavier punls^ent than those who kUl someone In anger.

By ELMER ROESSNER More Americans wlU visit foreign countries this year than ever before.

Last year the government Issued 910,0(W passports. This year, according to the rise in the first (juarter, <me mllUon may be issued for the first time In history.

That Is a scant measure (^ foreign travel. Others, perhaps several mUUHi, wUl visit Canada and Mexico, where no passports are required. Passports are not recjulred for Puerto Rico, cither, but that Is not a foreign (xnintry. Few, mostly a fellow named Donovan, wiU visit Cuba this year.

The number who visit Europe by Mr wiU increase proportionately again this year. Only 17 per cent of those applying for passports so fsw this year have indicated they would go by ship.

RATES UP, COSTS LOWER Chiriously, while plane rates wlU be posted higher this year, the average flight to EhinH>e will be less.

This is largely the result oi

machinati(Mis by the International Air Transport Association, an organlzati(m of transatlantic air-Unes that keeps insisting It is not a trust or cartel.

Last faU lATA agreed to reduce e(MMiomy round-trip discounts from 10 to 5 per cent, which would increase trans-Atlantic flights about 5 per cent. The Civil Aer(mautlcs Board voted to disapprove of the price-fixing agreement, despite protests of foreign governments. Since then, foreign alrUnes, mostly government owned, have fUed tarifls increasing fares 5 per cent effective April 29. But American airlines refused to follow.

In consequence, most foreign alrUnes are sUU charging the old rates.

TRAVELERS TAKE GROUP RATES

But fyen at the old rates, the prices for flylg over the Atlantic are about twice the prices for flying over c(ittnat-al United States. The reason seems to be that rates over Uie US. are governed by cixnpetl-tion and the CAB, whUe rates

over the ocean are largely settled by lATA and foreign governments.

However, the offl(Ual rates trouble not a large percentage of American tourists. They go by charter flight.

Charter flights are supposed to be organized by estabUsb-ed clubs, societies, churches and what-not for members only. Actually they are usually organized by travel agents. They are suivosed to be for members only; actually almost anyone willing to teU a few Ues can join any charter group.

HOW TO DO rr

If you want to fly to Europe this year and cant afford first class or economy fares, ask the nearest travel agency for a list (rf charter flights he knows about. You may have to become a retroactive member of the Sons of I Will Arise or (tf the Hinky-Dlnk Bowling aub, but if you are persistent you can fly to and fran Europe at less than $900.

Note; You will have to act fast. Many charter flights are filling up. You must also move

quickly to make hotel reservations; most of Europes beds are already sold through Labor Day and bandstantfas do not make for comfortabte sleeping. I know. And dont forget your vaccination certificate. You can leave the country but cant get hack tn without It or a fresh vaccination.
