Meanwhile, state officials gov- face a triple politics and thev still seem to problem of time, money. This conference has had a build up for almost two years, a lot of fanfare, and countrywide interest. President Eisenhower proposed it in a message to Congress Jan. 7, ISM. ... Then he created a committee of 34 men and women to advise him on what the government should do about the country's educational needs. ' ' " ' ' Since then, and at the commit tee's suggestion, all the states .tnd territories have had their own con ferences to discuss what they though needed to be done. Reports on all those states' con ferences were supposed to be sent Gun Mishaps Cost 2 Lives By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Two persons lost their lives in gun accidents in Oregon over the weekend. Walter Edward Harper. 30. of Sweet Home, the father of two young children.' was killed by a companion when mistaken for a deer. 1 The accident occurred Saturday in the McDowell Creek area near Sweet Home when Harper had been hunting with Doyle V. Shipp, also Sweet Home. Sheriff's Deputy J. C. Comer said Shipp had ad mitted firing the fatal shot. Merlyn Osburn Christiansen, 15. Forest Grove, died in a Hillsboro hospital Sunday from a wound suffered while playing with a 22 caliber automatic pistol at his home. The bullet severed a vein in the youth's leg and he apparently bled to death. Harper was the Joth fatality cf the Oregon hunting season. Kight others have been shot to death, eight have suffered latal heart attacks, two have drowned and one was killed in an automobile acci dent while on a hunting trip. At leant in others have suffered non-fatal gun shot wounds. same people who tookpart in their states conferences, and some of them apparently don't have to be guided by what their state confer ences agreed on. When this conference Finishes up Thursday, its reports on recom mendations will be turned over to the President's committee. That committee doesn't have to be bound by the action of this confer ence. . This is where the time element enters. The ! -member committee which Eisenhower created to ad vise him doesn't meet to decide on recommendations until Jan. 16. But probably before then per haps in the first 10 days of Janu ary Eisenhower will send his State of the Union message to Con gress, a natural vehicle for any recommendations he wants to make on education. He could hardly make any specific recommendations unless he had been informed longTiefore the committee's Jan. 16 meeting what its recommeadations were likely to be. But if he makes specific recom mendations before he gets the com mittee s report, then a question arises: Why the committee at all and whv the conferences? He aould speak in general terms about education and later, after getting the committee's recom mendations, send a special mes sage to Congress on education But apparently no matter what this conference or Eisenhower's committee recommends on federal aid to education, that subject will be up to its neck in politics any wav. The Democrats run Congress. Sen. Lyndon Johnson of Texas Democratic leader in the Senate said a week ago his party would push for federal aid to education If Eisenhower asks for federal aid plus other things, he ll be dealing with Democrats in an election vear. They'll have ideas of their own. no doubt. But any proposal on federal aid will run smack into the Eisenhow er administration's economy drive.
