State Senator
Says Education
"Pawn" at Present
Portland "Education and ed
ucators can no longer remain
pawns on the chessboard to be
moved this way and that at po
litical whim," stated State Sen
ator Mark Hatfield at a Wednes
day evening dinner meeting of
' the Portland Division of the Ore
gon Education association at Lin
coln High school.
Senator Hatfield told the au
dience of over 400 educators and
lay persons that "the educational
profession has bought a ticket to
the otball game and its mem
bers are in the grandstand." "We
can no longer leave to Cecil
Posey and Robert Phelps (OEA
staff members) the responsibility
of s&piOg the educational deci
sions of the day at the legisla
ture, said the youthful Willam
ette university dean of students
Heiired a volley at teaAers, ad
mimstrators, . and school board
9 members who still hold the mis
taken idea that education can
remain aloof from politics.
The senator pleaded that edu
cators should give consideration
to the establishment of a secre
tary of education with full cab!
net rank and to break edScation
away from health and welfare.
Hf) explained that this was "not
to greaten federal encroachment
but to give proper emphasis to
education along with labor, com
merce, foreign affairs, etc." He
further pointed out that other
countries have ministers of edu
cation. He next emphasized that an
informed pubfcc has the forti
tude to lay the pros and cons of
the issues of the day before the
student. "Are we raising a gen
eration of political neophytes?"
queried Senator Hatfield. "There
is just as great a shortage of good
political talent as there is of
teachers."
The term politician and its
connotations can be partially
blamed on the politicians them
selves. However, they are a
product of our educational sys
tem and a public that stands for
corruption, conniving, etc., "is
R the same public that passed
through the educational system,"
Senator Hatfield continued.
"If we leave public discussion
and public participation to the
non-educators, we are not mak
ing the maximum use of our
brain power," stated the speaker.
He explained that in the days to
come, manpower would take an
even more remote back seat to
brainpower than at present.
The talk was entitled, "Educa
tion From the Grandstand and
the Scrimmage Line."
