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.

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.
Reading Linked
To Mental Health
AGREEMENT REACHED
Portland-(UPD-Federal Medi
ator George Walker said Tues
day agreement has been
reached- between representa
tives of Local 1236 of the
Linoleum, Formica and Car
pet Layers Union and the
Portland Floor Covering as
sociation on a new contract.
LIKE IT THAT WAY
Guttenberg, Iowa (UPD -Residents
of Guttenberg,
named for Johann Gutenberg,
Inventor of movable type,
have voted to uphold a typo
graphical error. Voters Tues
day defeated, 208-166, a move
to delete the extra "T" Insert
ed accidentally by a draftsman
in the original town plan.
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.
. Any- one could explode to
morrow. Any one could lead
to a world conflict. '
