Nixon Party Head,
Hatfield Declares
Portland-flJPD Gov. 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. '

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. : .

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

you multiply by four, which

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.'
