Mark Hatfield said Sunday there was "no question" about form er Vice President Richard Nixon being titular head of the GOP. .Hatfield said. Nixon would continue as titular leader of the Republican party until he wffs nominated for the presi dency again in 1964. And then, Hatfield said, he will be "the leader." : Hatfield said he questioned the intent of the John Birch Society because he questioned the "validity of any organiza tion that is anti." He said the basic American concept was the more positive approach of "being for something.' "The 'anti' approach may satisfy some people but it does not satisfy me," he said. ' OUT OF ORDER Mineola, N.

Robert Smith Little Debate on Wisdom of Loans To Private Schools Continued From Pag 1) Professor Howe added, in his letter to Morse, that he opposed loans to private schools as a matter of policy. Morse commended him for separating his legal view from his political view. The curious aspect of the debate that is engulfing Wash ington on this issue is that there is virtually no debate about the wisdom of loans to private schools as a matter of national policy. The debate focuses on the lugal issue. There is a tendency, it ap pears, for congressmen to take for granted that If loans to private schools are constitu tional, then -they are, ipso facto, good public policy. Not being the national authority on the constitutional question, the Congress would rather pass the buck to the courts. The Supreme Court, to be sure, is the authority on this aspect of the question. But the Congress is supposed to be the authority on what is good and necessary public policy. Here's where there is a wide gap in the debate. . Random Obitrvationi ' Morse,' thus far, has con fined himself to the constitu tional issue and some random observations about the relief the general taxpayer is get ting because some 15 per cent of the nation's children aren't attending, tax- supported schools. He is fond of saying "what would happen If we closed all the private schools in the United States tonight and if all the schoolchildren in those private schools ap peared at the public school doors tomorrow morning." Oregon has some 26,000 school children attending non public schools, roughly 7 per cent of the state's school population. Sen. Morse is going to have to do better than this to make a case for federal assistance to private schools. He Is going to have to demonstrate tnat there is a dire need and to quell doubts about the results of such a program. For example, will federal aid to private schools result in many new sectarian schools, perhaps each religious denom ination creating its own edu cational system? Will aid to private schools make possible many new non- sectarian schools financed in part by Uncle Sam and in part climb a notch "above" the public schools. Bait Teachers? Will an improved financial condition for private schools permit them to attract the best teachers, as they often do today with higher pay scales than public school boards will approve? . Will the public schools, as result, become a second- class educational system? And will it be necessary for those who want their children to get the superior ' education re quired by life in a technologi cally advanced democracy to send them to private schools? Perhaps none of these con ditions - would arise. But if they should, the country could be fragmented in ways that might have deep social af fects. Instead of the American melting pot with its historic reliance on a free common school system, we could end up with a hundred different schools sponsored by a hun dred differently oriented groups - the Catholics, the Baptists, the Jews, the Episco palians and all the other de nominations, plus who knows what new groups, even the John Birch Society for the red-hot reactionaries and the Socialists for those at the other end of the ideological scale. ' : Aimed at Segregationists Sen. Morse has a proviso in his loan bill to rule out those private schools In the South which discriminate against students on racial lines, This is to prevent the segregation ists from taking advantage of it to avoid the court rulings requiring integration in the schools. The question for Congress to decide is whether any pro visions In such a proposal can prevent a fragmentation of educational training in this country which .would cause more and more school chil dren to identify themselves and their destiny with a frag ment of society. This is the public policy is sue which Congress must de bate and decide long before the courts are asked to rule on the constitutionality of the bill. : . the teleohone booths when their radio shoD was idle for by the status seekers in this af- lack of business. s ' fluent society who want to Goldwater Sees Reelection of Kennedy in 1964 A 5 Washington - IUPD - Sen. Barry M. Goldwater (R-Arlz.) has conceded that the political odds favor the reelection of President Kennedy In 1964 un less the chief executive "stubs his toe." The conservative GOP lead er said Sunday it would be easier to make predictions about 1964 after the votes have been counted In the 1962 congressional and state elec tions. But he said 20th century history shows that presidents have been reelected "unless something very bad happens, and nobody wants something bad to happen to President Kennedy." Goldwater, chairman of the Senate Republican Campaign Committee, also said the GOP would not be in a position to win the presidential vote in big northern cities until it gained control of mayor and aldermen posts. "I don't know how many jobs the city of New York has to give out, but . . . when Disabled Planes In Safe Landings Boston - (UPD - Landing gear trouble Sunday night forced two giant prop -jet airliners with 114 persons aboard to make emergency landings at Boston and Montreal airports, No one was injured in either of the safe landings al though one passenger fainted when the Trans-Canada plane from Tampa, Fla., with 49 persons abroad skidded to a halt at Montreal's Internation al airport, e - An Eastern Air Lines Elec tra with 65 persons aboard cirlcled Boston's Logan field for two hours before landing on a foam covered runway in one of the biggest disaster alerts In the airfield's history The big Trans-Canada Air lines turboprop airliner, car rying 42 Canadian passengers and a crew of seven from Tampa, Fla., circled the Mon treal airport for more than four hours before coming in for a belly landing. A task force of ambulances, doctors, police and firemen had been summoned to the air field. Crash equipment lined both sides of the runway and all area hospitals were alertr ed. you multiply by four, which ts tne usual political patron age value, you come up with an election day starter that is a whale of a thing to over come," Goldwater said. . Goldwater : reasserted his contention that the Republi cans could win more elections by becoming conservative. In the last election, he said, nearly half of the GOP con gressmen who were defeated were from northern New York, "a state that is supposed to be able to elect liberals.' candidates "were so-called lib erals." Not Adequately Expressed ' Since 1928, he said, "The conservative mind of the Re publican party" has not been adequately expressed either in the GOP presidential candi dates and the party's plat forms., , . . . v ' '1 Goldwater said he felt that the next Republican presiden tial candidate would be "a man that we haven't heard from yet," possibly a gover nor, a young member of Con- And, lie said, the losing GOP gress or even a state legislator.
