Enlargement of Laos Situation Still Possibility Tpkyo-OIPD-Asia has relax ed 'slightly from . the Laos crisis but there remained nag ging speculation' as to where and when the communists may apply pressure' next against the West. Laos remained an explo sive, unsettled situation. Enlargement of that sput tering conflict still loomed as a definite possibility. But the indecisive talk of a cease fire, the U.S. display of mili tary determination and the impending Monsoon season gave some hope that a show down struggle in that jungle kingdom, might be averted at least temporarily. Secrecy Lid Clamped A tight lid of secrecy re mained clamped on the dis position of U.S. military forces in the Western Pacific and Southeast Asia. There was also the usual lack of public information regarding military actions by Russia, Communist China and North Vietnam. It was generally "know, Strand Charges 'Brainwashing' On Contract Corvallls (UPD - Oregon State College President Dr. A, L. Strand has accused Rep. Otto E. Passman (D-La.) of being "brainwashed" by the United States Operations Mission- at Bangkok. Dr. Strand made the state ment in reply to - Passman's charges . that two field offi cials had been punished for recommending the Oregon State contract with Kasetart University in Thailand be canceled. . "Congressman Passman Is in a poor position to criticize the International Cooperation Administration for removing two men from the USOM in Bangkok," Dr. Strand said. Mot Near Campus - r "Passman and members of his subcommittee went to Thailand ,a year ago. to inves tigate the contract of Oregon state with Kasetart Univer sity," he said. "Not one of the congress men went near the campus where the work had been car ried on, nor did they talk with any Thai officials con nected with the university or with the Oregon State staff. They limited their investiga tion to USOM officials and were brainwashed by them." Passman made a second trip to Bangkok last Octo ber," Dr. Strand said, "to check again on the Oregon State contract and even then did not go to the campus or talk to anyone at the univer sity." - Contract Said 'Stinking' ' Passman's accusations were prompted by an order sent to Thomas Naughten, director of the foreign aid mission in Thailand. It said budget esti mates on future foreign aid projects could not be dis closed to members of Congress. Passman said the order was an attempt to hide the de tails "about a contract that was as stinking as ever come before this subcommittee." The contract, recently can celed, was made In 1954 with Oregon State and total costs rah to well over $2 million.

Phlladelph!a-(Sclence Serv- lceMf Johnny cannot read, the fault may not be with his teacher or the method by which he was taught-whether the phonics method or the ' see and say." He may be having difficulty with his mental health. Dr. Franklin H. Gold berg of the New York Univer sity Reading Institute report ed to the Eastern Psychologi cal association here, - Dr. Goldberg studied 32 boys who were from one to four years retarded in thair school work. The boys were not all stupid, Dr. Goldberg found. Although some were "dull-normal," some were su perior in intelligence.' Most of the boys were of average in telligence. Of the boys stud ied, 56 per cent (18 boys) were found to have mental health difficulties. Dr. Goldberg studied the personality characteristics of these retarded boys. The j typical ' retarded reader, he ! found, Is an Immature, fright ened and unhappy boy who does not enter actively into re-' latlonships with boys his age because of deep-seated feel ings of Inadequacy and fail ure. I however, that the FMS. was maintaining a flexed military muscle in the area. . -v Seventh Fleet aircraft strik ing power, had been rein forced. Army paratroopers re mained alerted. An unreveal ed number of Marines were afloat and ready. Airforce striging elements and ' troop carrier planes had been de ployed to bases such as Oki nawa and Clark Field In the Philippines from which they could support potential action in Southeast Asia. - In Vientiane, capital of Laos, the curatin of secrecy parted enough to reveal that U.S. Pacific Military Chief, Admiral Harry Felt, had con ferred with . Laotian leaders across the river in Northern Thailand, v Other Potential Spots Even of Laos cooled, there remained other potential trou ble spots in Asia which the Communists could turn on and off as easily as the burn ers on a kitchen stove. They included: South Viet Nam, where military reports have repeat edly warned of increasing danger from Communist in filtration and guerrillas. Na tional elections were sched uled for April ninth. All Asia would watch. The Formosa straits, where the smouldering .civil war between the Nationalist and Communist Chinese re mains an unsettled fight. One massive Communist bombard-1 ment . of Nationalist-held Quemoy or Matsu could plunge that area into crisis. The Communist Chinese have in the past used their artil lery on to 'emphasize a po litical proposition. Korea, where Communist and anti-Communist armies, including two American divi sions, face each other across an uneasy no-man s-land. April will mark the first an niversary of the student re volt which- overthrew the government of former Presi dent Syngman Rhee. Some observers predict trouble. Nehru Dampens Emotions , The India- Communist China border, where a terri ble dispute remains unsolved and 'emotions are dampened only -by the patient Indian leader Nehru. .. Additionally, there was the India-Pakistan dispute over Kashmir; the Communist-inspired guerrilla movements against the governments of the Philippines and Malaya and the Bute n-inaonesian squabble over , the western half of the New Guinea (West Irian).'.' , '; :- '' Those were some of the problems Asia faced today. .
