Flemmina Savs Social Workers Needed By PHIL SEMAS Associate Editor There are 7,000 undergraduates in the University's College of Lib eral Arts. Many of these 7,000 have no idea what they’re going to do when they graduate. They’re not interested in graduate school, but their major’s haven’t prepared them for any particular vocation. The nation’s new pre-occupa tion with social reform—in the War on Poverty and other Great Society programs—has pointed up a manpower need. There is a heavy shortage of people inter ested in social work and these kinds of programs. “I think we should bring this need and possible source of sup ply together,” said University President Arthur S. Flemming. Flemming was talking at an Honors College discussion Mon day night The topic was the pro posed University School of Com munity Service and Public Affairs. He stuck mostly to the commun ity service part of the idea, rather than public administration. The new professional school, proposed for the 1966-67 school year was discussed last Wednes day by the faculty but it delayed a final decision on it for a month. The school would provide few new courses. It would offer main ly interdisciplinary study in areas such as political science, sociol ogy, psychology, etc., that would prepare a student for work in public administration or commun ity service. It would involve few new faculty members or pro grams. It would be mainly at the undergraduate level. It's the proposal Flemming and others have as an answer to ! meeting that manpower shortage 1 in the community services area. “The greatest manpower short ! ages in the nation are in the com m u n i t y services occupations," Flemming says. He maintains that "we have drifted into a situation where it is assumed that you must have at least a master’s degree before you are qualified. This is certainly true in social work." But, he points out, "if graduate schools of social work multiplied their graduates by four they still couldn’t provide enough people to meet this need.” Flemming said he has detected a “strong interest" among under graduates in community service occupations. He noted that many people unsure about vocational objectives who have been exposed to social work in such programs as the Peace Corps and the ASUO’s Migrant Labor Project have decided they want to enter this field. What Flemming proposes is to set up a program that will give Senate Hears Views... (Continued from page 1) were Students for a Democratic Society, Youth Americans for Freedom. Young Republicans, the Student-Faculty Committee to End the War in Viet Nam. Bill Muir, a YD, presented his views as an individual as the YD’s re fused to take part in the hearing as a group. Students for a Democratic So ciety, represented by Phillip Grant, said that the war in Viet Nam is clearly an imperialistic move on the part of the U S. gov ernment. He presented the view that the aim of the Vietnamese citizens is comparable to that of the American Negro, as both are people who are not receiving the right to participate in govern ing themselves. He said the group is in favor of immediate with drawal of all support to South Viet Nam. The Young Americans for Free dom in their platform stated: "We are primarily concerned that freedom and self determination be established in South Viet Nam. If the United States could nego tiate a settlement of the war and assure the freedom and au tonomy, i.e., exclusion of the Na tional Liberation Front from any part in the government, as well as the exclusion of any form of coalition government, in South Viet Nam and could assure the return of all rebel held and con trolled areas to the government in Saigon, we would be amenable to negotiation.” ONLY DAYS S3 FOX-EVERGREEN 8 cDONALD JW ft - >44-OO 5:00-7:35-10:10 JAMES BOND DOES IT EVERYWHERE!

However, they said that since they feel that these terms will not be met by the Viet Cong they support a policy of “prosecuting the war to the fullest’’ to bring the war to an early conclusion. “This policy includes the bomb ing of Hiaphong. the rails lead ing from the harbor and in the event of increased intervention by Communist China, the bombing of that nation’s nuclear installa tions.” They took the position that the Communists are the aggressors by violating the Geneva treaty of 1954. The treaty called for an end to hostilities. Neither zone was to be used as a military base and military equipment was to be brought in to the zone. They stated the U.S. did not take part in the treaty but “had we partici pated, our military assistence would still have been justified due to the flagrant violation of those accords by the Communists in their aggressive invasion of the South.” Flagrant Abuses Later when questioned on the flagrant abuses where it was stat ed that infiltration from the North of officers, cadres, and spe cialists between 1959 and 1964 was 28,000 and in recent months whole Vietnamese regiments. “Today the flow of weapons from North to South consists al most entirely of the latest arms acquired from Communist China. These include caliber 7.62 as sault rifles, semi automatic car bines and machine guns. It is im portant to note that the 7.62 cali bre weapon requires ammunition available only from Communist China. The Viet Cong are there fore entirely dependent on Red China.” “They also stated that the Northern government is clearly communist controlled. Puppet Regime When questioned as to why we should support a U.S. dictatorial regime over a Communist dicta torial regime they replied that the Southern government could not be called a U.S. puppet re gime. It was then asked whether Diem would be classified as a liberal to which the spokesmen re plied no, he would classify him as a moderate. They stated that whether they would agree to a compromise, could not be determined until they they the extent of the com ' promise. Bruce Gerhardt. speaking for the Young Republicans, present i ed a view favoring the continu ation of a military war until vic ; tory is achieved. They feel that withdrawal would only facilitate the expan sion of a communist "program of piecemeal world conquest.” YD Support Morse Bill Muir, a YD (presented I views adopted by the club Mon day. He did not represent the club, however, as they decided not to participate. They support the policies of Sen. Wayne Morse. He called for complete military withdrawal on both sides, submis- j sion of the dispute to the U N. j and the right of the people to self determination. He said that ! right by presidential decree is wrong. The U S. intervention is in vio lation of both the SEATO treaty ' and the U N. charter, he stated The Student Faculty Committee to end the War in Viet Nam, rep resented by Mary Hamilton cited the diverse reasons of the mem bers for opposing the war. Some of the members oppose the war just because it is a war ‘‘War, whatever its reasons and aims, is little more than an obvi ous failure of men to solve human disputes by human means.” Other members oppose it be- | cause they feel it is a particularly “dirty war” as more civilians j have died as a result of it than soldiers.

I’art of the proposed new school would be a program, already started here, that places students in job situations in community service. Flemming thinks this kind of training in compatible with the Buber's Theory Dialogue Topic At today’s YMCA Dialogue, Kabbi Gumbeiner, from the Hit lei Foundation at the University of California at Berkeley, will discuss Martin Buber’s theory of the value of dialogues in solving problems. The main part of his discus sion will cover whether or not application of Buber’s dialogue theory might help bring about solutions to racial problems in the South. In other words, can construc tive dialogues exist between Ne groes and whites? Would these dialogues be more useful than demonstrations and ther direct actions in bringing about solu tion of problems? Rabbi Gumbeiner has a back | ground on problems of Negroes in the South, including his par ticipation in Freedom Rides in Mississippi during periods of ra cial unrest. Another person to participate in the dialogue is being sought, and will probably be a faculty member or a local minister. The public is invited to at tend the dialogue which will be at 4 p.m. in the SU Bottom-of the Bowl. general principles of a liberal education . But he admits that "there is ulwuy.s the danger thut this will become a how to do it' program. This I don’t like, I don’t favor. The how to do it’ aspect, Flem ming says, can best be handled by on-the-job training in college. Much of this, he added, should be done by industry.
