The report, one of a series aimed at assessing the major problems and opportunities of the U.S. in the next 10 to 15 years, said the bulk of pres ent day social achievement is gained by group effort. "It is our ability to mar shal and unite the skills and abilities of thousands of indi viduals that makes possible the achievements of modern technology . . . The danger is that we may forget the indi vidual behind a facade of huge and impersonal institu tions." The study said that "the risk is we will glorify science and forget the scientists; mag nify government and ignore the men and women who dis charge its functions; pin our hopes on "education, business or cultural institutions, and lose sight of the fact that these - institutions are no more creative or purposeful than the individuals who en dow them with creativityand J purpose." ' High Performance Essential The Rockefeller survey also noted that the U.S. faces the threat that its "increasingly organized efforts" will be come "increasingly routine" and that the "structures of science, government and en- terprise will become, hard shells resistant to growth and change, rather than flexible institutions capable of renew ing and recreating themselves." The report stressed that "a dynamic society requires above all receptivity to change" and "every democ racy must encourage high in dividual performance." It said, "society must come to the aid of the individual finding ways to identify him as a unique person, and to place him alongside his fel low men in ways which will Sputnik III To Be Visible Over Oregon Boston, Mass.

S. for several weeks. not inhibit and destroy his personality." Turning to education, the study ' said that America's schools are "overcrowded, un derstaffed, and ill-equipped." It dismissed arguments over quantity vs. quality education, saying that a modern society has "no choice but to do both." The Rockefeller account conceded "there will never be enough teachers with the extraordinary human gifts which make for inspired teachings" and therefore the nation must utilize its super ior teachers more effectively, Many Scientists Needed It said this could be ac complished by eliminating many of the petty tasks which occupy a teacher's time and delegating such duties to less highly trained classroom as sistants. Wider use of televis ion and films was also sug gested. On science, the report said Americahad been catapulted into a new technological era and "we need an ample sup ply of high calibre scientists, mathematicians and engi neers. We need quality and we need it in considerable quantity." The survey acknowledged the financial plight of the na tion's schools and colleges and predicted that in the next dec ade it is likely that they will require at least double the present level of support Alaska Statehood Bill Expected Before Week End Washington (UPI) Assist ant Senate Democratic leader Mike Mansfield (Mont.) said Monday he expects thl bill to make Alaska the 49th state will be sent to the White House before this week is over. , The House already has ap proved the measure. Mans field said he believed the Sen ate would pass it 'without change, and it would go di rectly to President Eisenhow er for his signature.- Warns Against Tie-in The Montanan emphasized that if the legislation should be amended it might touch off another fight in the House. He particularly warned against any efforts to tie the Alaska bill to a similar Ha waii statehood proposal. Before taking up statehood, the Senate plans to act on a House-passed bill providing for exchange of U.S. atomic information with NATO allies. The House meantime is set to vote Tuesday on a compro mise foreign aid bill. The Senate was considered virtually certain to stamp its approval on the bill to facili tate sharing of nuclear weap one secrets. Sen. Clinton P. Anderson (D-N.M.), a member of the Joint Congressional Atomic Energy Committee, said he might offer two amendments. But he predict ed the measure would be passed quickly. , Would Grant Immunity Rep. Kenneth B. Keating (R-N.Y.) said he would intro duce a bill today to grant 'small-time" crooks immunity from prosecution if they tes tify at trials or grand jury proceedings against "big time racketeers." Keating, top-ranking GOP member of the House Judici ary Committee, said the meas ure would help federal grand juries "put the finger" on the 100 top racketeers now tar gets of a Justice Department crackdown. Judge Rejects Bid To Stay Order Little Rock, Ark. (UPI) U.S. District Judge Harry J. Lemley has rejected a request by National Association for the' Advancement of Colored People to stay his order sus pending integration until 1961 at Central High school here. ' The judge issued his de cision after a recess of almost an hour, following arguments for the delay.
