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. (81 U.S.
Sup CU25, 1960)

Many Dispute
Significance of
Political Part
New York - IUP1I - Higher
education can't afford to stay
out of politics.
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.

sensibly related lo the long
term goals of American high
er education, at least two
tilings are called for.
"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.
They save the sufe, smart way
...with us. ..where their money
earns such excellent returns.
