JANUARY 30, 1961 lole of Federal Government in Higher Education Declared Vital THE il COURT H a public service by the COLLEGE of LAW WILlAMETTE UNIVERSITY Supreme Court Upholds Voting Rights The Alabama legislature passed a statute altering the boundaries of the city of Tus kegee. The city had formerly been formed in the shape of a square, but the new law transformed Us boundaries into a strange irregular fig ure with 28 sides. The result of this redrawing of the city's boundaries was to remove from the city all but four or five of its four hundred Negro voters while not removing a single while resident. Several Negroes sued to prevent the city officials from enforcing the statue. The Fed eral District Court dismissed the suit, and an appeal was taken to the United States Su preme Court. THE COURT HELD: Judge ment reversed. This alteration of the city's boundaries was an attempt to deny the Negro residents of the city their right to vote. It violates the Pue Process and Equal Pro tection Clauses of the 14th Amendment and also violates the 115th Amendment which says that no one's right to vote shall be denied because of his race or color.

Homer D. Babbidge Jr., assistant commissioner for higher edication in the U.S. Department of Health, Edu cation and Welfare, makes that point in a roport in "Col lege and University Busi ness," a professional journal for administrators. "A good many people, in cluding educators, continue to dispute whether the federal government has a significant role to play in American higher education," he said. ueoate at this level is highly academic." It's academic, Babbidge said, because - -Federal expenditures for so-called sponsored research currently exceed $1 billion a year. -The college housing loan program is now operating at an annual level in excess of $200 million. -Federal loans for students flow to institu tions at the rate of some S60 million a year. And federal felowships provide something like 335 million a year for graduate students. Significant Role ''Whatver else they may signify, these figures indicate that the federal government is playing a significant role in higher education," Babbidge said. "The federal government's role in American higher edu cation is vilal to the survival of higher education as we know it. "The real debate centers not around the if or the whether, but around the what and the how. What is the ap propriate role of the federal government, and how should it proceed? These arc the live issues." Babbidge said every indi cation is that the federal gov ernment's role in higher edu cation will expand. But, as the expert sees it, it isn't possible to conceive of this role as being soundly re lated to the long-term inter est of American higher educa tion without the active and forceful efforts of the leaders of American higher education themselves. If the future federal role in higher education is to be Powers' Release Seen Possibility Montgomery, Ala. -lUPH- Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. Thomas D.White believes the change of admisinstration may ease U.S. -Soviet tension and result in the release from pri son of U2 pilot Francis G. Powers. "There is a possibility Pow ers will be freed." White said Sunday on arrival at Maxwell AFB here. "We all certainly hope so. A change of administration leads to a climate where this sort of thing can happen." White, here to address the annual Montgomery Chamber of Commerce banquet at the Stale Coliseum tonight, said he was very optimistic about the Powers situation. wek i iT.u V4; llr.lJIlli Idfliiilr I :" 4ttWj4 ritW l '' : ' Bi(t event!

"First," Babbidge said, "the nation's colleges and universities must set out to establish for themselves a surer conception of their goals and the relation of these goals to public policy." "Second, the nation's col leges and universities need to represent, more actively than they have in the past, their interest in the development of public policy. "Having established goals for themselves, leaders of American higher education must be prepared lo deal di rectly and forthrightly with the public agencies whose de cisions so profoundly affect American higher education." The educator warned col leges and universities to resist the temptation to become "academic supermarkets." He said they would do this by allowing their aims and purposes lo be watered down or distorted by being willing lo buy and sell education solely in response to the laws of the market place.

Soviet Magazine Says Report False Moscow-IUPU-A Soviet mag azine said Sunday it had printed an "incorrect" report that 11 missing American air men had parachuted to safety and been captured by the Rus sians in 1!I5K. The unofficial popular weekly magazine, Ogonck, blamed the "incorrect state ments of fact" on an article from an East German publica tion, which it reprinted. The 11 flyers had been re ported missing since their C-130 transport plane was shot down near Yerevan in Soviet Armenia on Sept. 2, 1058. The Russians turned the bodies of six other crewmen over to the United Stales. Last Wednesday, President Kennedy told a news confer ence thai U. S. Ambassador Llewellyn E. Thompson had spoken to Premier Nlklta Khrushchev about the report. Kennedy said Soviet offic ials maintained the magazine report was incorrect and they had no knowledge of what happened lo the 11 flyers.
