This is a fateful hour in the classroom . . It's Widespread In recent interviews with 6K" high school youngsters. 42 per rent of the boys and 31 per cent nf the girls admitted they some times cheat on examinations. Many of them felt no qualms. Forty-four per cent of the boys and 35 per rent of the girla main tained cheating is justified on oc casion. About the same number said they sometimes use crib sheets. "What's so serious?" asked a 16-year-old Atlanta boy. "Some Umea I get blocked on an exam, and all 1 need is just one word to unplug my memory." A 17-year-old Chicago girl said, "I don't really feel I've done any thing wrong. Everybody has let his eye flick over another'i paper at one time or another." "If you ran get away with It. you're smart." said a 17-year-old Dallas girl. "If you get caught, you're stupid." Would this attitude be as ras- Reflects Lai Standards In the same vein, a It-year- old Miami youngster said, "All we have are testa, tests and more tests. It s a regular scoreboard and we're supposed to chalk up good marks. Well if that's all they want, 1 11 get it." It is evident, then, that the problem of cheating dredges up the more basic issues of what the student is really working for, where the schools are placing their emphasis, and the codes of conduct practiced by the parents. "If there wasn't as much em phasis on grades," said an Is-year-old boy from New Bruns wick, N J , "there wouldn't be as i much cheating. A It year-old girl in Fort Worth.

Peter Tj Mack Jr (D-IUt a commission member, gasped at the $600,000 as "something nobody dreamed of last year. Mack appeared most concerned about a $10,320 item to pay the salarv of John E. Allen, a Lincoln enthusiast named assistant staff director. Mack savs Allen is totally unqualified for the job. He said Allen has been active in District of Columbia Republican circles adding: "The Republicans sneaked him in the back door as assistant staff director after he was rejected a staff director."

Knr the first time since passage of the Taft-Hartley law in 1947, Ives said in a radio address, re sponsible union leaders now are offering to cooperate on what he called reasonable labor legislation.
