America Declared in Danger
Of Losing Sight of Individual
New York (UPI) A
Rockefeller Brothers Fund re
port said Monday the "source
of a nation's greatness" is the
individual and warned that
America is in danger of los
ing sight of that fact.
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

sia's space traveler, Sputnik

land for about one minute at
6:16 a.m. Wednesday, the
Smithsonian Institute report
ed Monday.
The satellite will be moving
m a . northeasterly direction
low in the northern sky.
The Institute said the satel
lite will be seen again in the
Portland area next Saturday
about 5:27 a.m. moving north

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. Wiley Branton,
a Negro attorney from Pine
Bluff, Ark., urged the judge
to stay his order because -of
the time it would take to ap
peal the judge's decision.
