To focus on domestic problems
Fulbright advocates
Vietnam withdrawal
WASHINGTON (AP)—Sen. J. W. Fulbright said Monday the
United States must get out of Vietnam even if it has to settle
for less than a standoff and t.urn its attention to domestic prob
lems that have divided the people and spawned a student re
bellion.
The chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee called
for an overhaul of what he called a foreign policy of “chronic
warfare and intervention” in international disputes that he said
is leading this country toward an authoritarian government.
Fulbright told military leaders in a National War College
speech that his criticism was of “militarism” which he said is
dominating U.S. foreign policy, not of “the able, energetic men
who fill the top ranks of the armed services” even though he
said they “have acquired an- influence disproportionate to their
numbers on the nation's security policies.”
“The courage and endurance of our fighting men command the
respect of all Americans,” Fulbright said. “The fault in our war
policy lies not with them but with the political decisions which
committed them to an impossible task.”
The Arkansas Democrat argued that while it would be a new
experience for American fighting men to settle for something less
than victory and perhaps something less than a standoff, such
action will be necessary to get the nation back on the track.
“In the last three decades,” he said, “the United States has been
heavily preoccupied with its role as the world's greatest power,
to the neglect of its societal responsibilities, and at an incalculable
cost to our national security.
“The political cost is reflected in the steady concentration of
power in the hands of the national executive, in a long-term
trend toward authoritarian government. The moral cost is reflected
in the unhappiness of the American people, most particularly in
the angry alienation of our youth . . .
“Until the war in Vietnam is ended, there can be no prospect
of the nation’s more sober and generous instincts reasserting them
selves, no prospect of a renewal of the nation’s strength at its
vital domestic source.”

Foreign students
need counselors
Over a hundred new foreign
students will need University
students to counsel them on the
“American way of life’’ at the
beginning of next fall term.
Applications for counseling
the foreign students, during the
week of September 16, 1969 are
now being accepted. Applica
tions can be turned in at the
International Student Organiza
tion, 319 EMU. Counselors will
do everything from orienting
students to the campus to help
ing them find living quarters.
During the orientation time,
counselors receive free room
and board and entertainment
expenses. The orientation week
is used to introduce the foreign
students to University student
groups, professors and adminis
trators as well as the University
facilities.
Foreign students will also be
introduced to the Foreign Stu
dent Organization and the for
eign student advisor’s office.
Each student also has a “friend
ship family” which assists him
during his stay.
According to Randy Morse,
director of the program 120
new foreign students are ex
pected next year. Foreign stu
dents make up 11 percent of
the student population, and rep
resent 91 different nations.
Morse made his comments in
an interview on KVAL-TV Mon
day night stating that he is pres
ently leaning towards the con
gressional seat.
The 68-year-old Democrat
lost the senatorial election to
Robert Packwood last fall after
24 years as Oregon’s senator.
At the time Morse said he was
not through with politics.
Morse plans to consult ad
visors before he makes his de
cision. He has mentioned both
positions as being possibilities.
Presently John Dellenback, a
Republican from Medford, holds
the sought-after congressional
seat. If Morse decides to run he
will probably face him.
State Treasurer Robert Straub
has also shown interest in the
governor’s position and, if
Morse decides to run, will prob
ably oppose him in the Demo
cratic primary.
Republican Gov. Tom McCall
has not announced any plans
for another term yet.

Legislative committee okays
higher education budget
After changing the basis for
a raise in academic salaries, in
creasing tuition and granting a
higher percentage raise to
teaching assistants, the joint
Ways and Means Committee ap
proved the state higher educa
tion budget Monday.
The budget as passed by the
committee now goes to the
House for approval.
Among the major differences
between the budget that emerg
ed from the committee and
that recommended by the gov
ernor were changes pertaining
to out-of-state students.
A recommendation that the
percentage of out-of-state en
tering freshmen be limited was
amended so that at both the
University and OSU the num
ber of out-of-state entering
freshman would be limited to
$900 next year and based on a
percentage in 1970.
According to Shelby Price of
the admissions office, if this
proposal were adopted, “there
would be no problems” with ad
missions next year.
The committee also recoin -
mended that out-of-state stu -
Project collects
$1,Q00 donations
In half a day’s work Project
Advantage (PA) collected about
$1,000 worth of donations for
the Disadvantaged Youth Pro
gram, yesterday.
PA will continue to accept
donations out of student’s fine
and breakage fees until next
week. PA is collecting money
from students and faculty to
help subsidize the students on
Project 75, HEP, Upward
Bound, NDEA and Economic
Opportunity Grants, all of
which have been cut back by
the Federal government.
According to Mary Reagan,
one of the organizers of PA, the
project has hopes of expanding
into the community and getting
donations from the University.
She emphasized, however, that
these are only plans and must
be approved by the administra
tion before the plan can be
put into operation.
dents pay the full cost of their
education instead of the $999
that they now pay. This would
mean that costs will go up to
$1325 and then $1398 during
the next biennium.
Along with this plan would be
an increase of $30 per year in
undergraduate resident tuition.
The academic salary changes
centers around a plan which
would give different raises to
professors on either side of a
$15,000 cut line. The commit
tee moved that teachers be re
warded for carrying a large
number of in-class hours and
that the distribution of salaries
be made without any regard to
what pay bracket an instructor
was in.
The proposed teaching assis
tant wage increase would be one
of 15.5 per cent and 5 per cent
for the next two years. This was
substantially higher than the
6 and 7 per cent raises recom
mended by the governor’s budg
et.
The proposed enrollment lid
applies to the second year of
the biennium. The committee
provided for an additional 981
students, raising the state lid
from the proposed 44,830 to
45.811.
In other legislative activity,
the 19-year-old voting age bill
was defeated Tuesday 16-14 in
the Senate. A move will be
made today to reconsider.
The joint Ways and Means
Committee also moved that the
Administration building pro
posed at the University be con
tinued as one of the high priori
ties for the next session.
