Hatfield Doesn't
Want Federal Aid
For State Schools

By A. ROBERT SMITH
Mail Tribune Washington
Correspondent
Washington (Special) - Gov.
Mark Hatfield says he doesn't
want Congress to come to his
FT HI "I J rescue with
faivvi federai aid for
eaucauon. ai
t h o ugh the
Oregon gover
nor lias been
criticized i n
I n f 1 u ential
quarters for
c u tting the
state's educa-
I I o n budget.
he doesn't see any need for
additional federal funds for
either public school construc
tion or teachers' salaries.
Hatfield's views came out
in a letter to a Florida fresh
man congressman who decid
ed to poll all 50 governors.
I don t know your govern
or - Hatfield, Is that his name?
-or whether he's a Democrat
or a Republican," said Con
gressman Sam Gibbons, who
is regarded as a middle-of-the-
road Democrat. "1 just figure
a governor is in the best post
tion to appraise the needs of
his state.
He asked the governors
whether their states required
more federal funds for ele
mentary and secondary school
buildings and paying its
teachers.
"The answer to both ques
tions is in the negative," Hat
field replied. "Although funds
arc required In support of
school construction and teach
ers' salaries, the provision of
funds is essentially a respon
sibility of the state and local
government.
Rep. Gibbons Is on the
House Education Committee,
along with Rep. Edith Green
(D-Orc.l. who is a leader in
the federal aid for educa
tion crusade. The committee is
currently considering Presi
dent Kennedy's aid proposals.
$8.5 Million Annually
Oregon would be entitled to
an estimated $8.5 million an
nually in federal money un
der the Kennedy omnibus bill
for niHiiy educational activi
ties including college student
loans and community librar
ies. Of this, an estimated $4.7
million would be for elemen
tary and secondary educa
tion, much of which state of
ficials could utilize for con
struction or salaries as they
choose.
Hatfield's letter to Gibbons
continued:
"There are matters of edu
cation that truly involve the
national Interest and in such
matters federal action may be
appropriate. Except for feder
ally impacted areas, however,
and for those areas where
state and local resources are
absolutely inadequate to meet
the needs, there is no compell
ing justification for federal
intervention."
Federally impacted areas
arc those in which local
schools serve students of fam
ilies living or employed on
federal installations, such as
Camp Adair or federal dams
under construction, which
don't contribute to the local
school tax base. All states re
ceive federal funds for such
school districts.
Will Contest Appraisal
"There are pockets of great
need In the state, particularly
in districts where bond levies
have failed in recent years,"
she declared. "I would prefer
to have the opinions of the
superintendents of v a r 1 o u s
school districts where there
has been a population explo
sion and a very narrow tax
base."
Gibbons didn't ask Hatfield
where he stands on aid for
colleges and universities.
which is Mrs. Green's con
cern, and the governor didn't
volunteer any opinions on the
subject of higher education.
Expansion of aid for higher
education was nearly enacted
last year. While its outlook is
uncertain this year, aid for
higher education still has
wider support in Congress
than aid for elementary and
secondary schools.
Newberg Man Is
Presumed Drowned
Dcpoc Bay - (ITD - John
Goodrich, 29, Newberg. was
missing and presumed
drowned in the Pacific ocean
today.
Goodrich disappeared Sun
day while fishing alone from
the rocks at the south end of

miles north of here.
His hat and fishing rod, reel

Quotes From the News
Freemont, Calif.-HJPD-President Kennedy, in a letter to a
10-year-old who asked about leprechauns:
"They are most friendly and their message is that all
the peoples of the world should live in peace and friendship."
Washington Rep. William C. Cramer (D-Fla.) declaring
that the United States should not make any further loans
to Brazil until certain conditions are met:
"I am asking that no U.S. loans be made to Joao Goulart's
government until the Communists are cleaned out of it.
until we receive assurances that our aid dollars will not
be used to finance Brasilian trade with Russia and until
Brasll follows the lead of the majority of Latin American
nations and withdraws recognition of Castro's Cuba."
Washington Joe Barlow, chairman of the U. S. Cham
ber of Commerce taxation committee, urging Congress to
cut taxes by $8.6 billion:
Until we have a tax structure with a top rale of 50
per cent or less, many so-called 'loopholes' will continue to
be nothing more than tax equities and relief provisions
. , , just to make the high rate structure durable and enforceable."

"They are ready to die in that respect if they receive the

vania, second ranking Repub
lican on the House Space
Committee and in my opin
ion a real jewel of a law-giver.
What I admire about Ful
ton is that he doesn't hesitate
to confront scientific experts
with a layman's viewpoint
or even, for good measure,
to toss in a few theories of
his own.
It was our man Fulton,
you may recall, who first
set forth the idea of grow
ing two dimensional to
matoes on the moon so that
spacemen would not have
to take so much food with
them.
When he introduced this
concept three or four years
ago, it was easy to tell that
he was thinking far ahead of
the scientific types who ac
tually run the space program.
At a recent hearing on the
moon flight project, he
brought up the matter again,
and it was plain to see that
he is still far ahead of them.
As best I could make out
from the reaction of D. Brain
erd Holmes, deputy associ
ate director of manned space
flight, nobody connected with
the program is yet thinking
in terms of two dimensional
vegetables.
At this same hearing, Ful
ton outlined another plan
that certainly seemed logi
cal to me, although Holmes
apparently was not convinced
of its soundness.
Since the key to reach
ing the moon is a rocket
powerful enough to es
cape earth, Fulton suggest
ed that the flight begin
from the top of a moun
tain. That, he noted, would give
the astronauts a head start
over their present sea level
launching site. He also rec
ommended that the capsule
and booster be placed aboard
a sled which would speed
along the mountainside to
provide a running start.
Holmes replied, rather
lamely I thought, that the
force of gravity on a moun
tain peak was essentially the
same as at sea level and that
even with a sled the flight
would begin at zero velocity.
"Not with my sled," Ful
ton said. "I would have you
going 400 miles an hour."
"Then your sled is sliding
down the hill and then . . ."
"I am not coming down the
hill," Fulton interjected, "I
am pushing the sled up the
hill."
Believe me, if the space
age ever catches up with Ful
ton, we have it made.

Mr. H. N. - With that kind
of an education, how will he
ever make a living?
Theodore N. - I'm sure I'll
get more out of this than
something that bores me.
Mr. H. N. Before mv snn
started college, it was under
stood that upon graduation
he'd come into the fur busi
ness with me, learn it
thoroughly, and eventually
take over so I could retire.
It's a fascinating and succes
sful shop Ted agreed thai he'd
help me keep it as a family
enterprise.
Naturally I assumed he was
taking courses in business ad
ministration, finance, market
ing, and practical subjects
like that. Not on your life.
He's winding up his second
vear anri n far it's etnf' lib-,,
Contrapuntal Composition,
the Cathedrals of France, and
Chaucerian Middle English
How that will ever help him
sell dyed - muskrat coats, I
can't see.
To make matters worse, he
plans to spend his junior year
in Italy studying mosaics.
a
Theodore N. - I'm not re
neging on my promise to my
dad. But I feel he can tparh
me what I need to know about
his business when the time
comes for me tn wnrk urith
him. I've helped out in the
snop aunng vacations and
over two summers and I havs
a general idea of how it oper
ates, as ior Business courses,
I can always fill in any gaps
with some post - graduate
study in an evening session.
But now's my chance to
broaden myself, to soak up
the humanizing knowledge I
may never have time for la
ter. My father should be glad
he can make it possible for
me to try my hand at the arts,
and to study things like phil
osophy which he calls "use
less." If he himself had had
a chance to learn these things,
he'd be a happier man.
And somehow I have a feel
ing these subjects will even
make me a better fur merch
ant. The Council-Declarations
of Indcpendancc in politics
have also been accompanied
by Declarations of Interde
charter, the NATO Alliance,
pendence, as witness the UN
and others. Just so, the old
hard and fast lines in educa
tion, such as Fine Arts vs.
Science, or Philosophy vs.
Home Economics, arc dis
solving or at least overlap
ping at many points.
So it's hard to say what
courses Theodore will use di
rectly in later life. But it's
safe to say that there arc some
areas where a person can't
know too much. Take psy
chology, for example. Is
there any field where psycho
logical insight into the
thoughts and feelings of one's
fellowman isn't important?
A haberdasher we know
has a favorite form of char
ity. When a fellow comes in
for a suit and wants one for
around $45, fine. He sells
him one. But occasionally this
dealer spots a customer he'd
Maybe he's a bridegroom, or
like to see wearing a $75 suit,
a guy in search of a job. May
be at this point in his life
that $30 gap may mean the
difference between a bright
future and a dull rut. Any
way, this dealer plays his
hunch. He insists that the buy
er take the more expensive
suit at the lower price. "I
take my profit out in a feel
ing of satisfaction," he ex
plains. "This suit does some
thing for you. And seeing you
walk out with it, does some
thing for me." . . . He's had
many thrilling follow - ups,
where his sensitivity has paid
off. Part of his keenness is
innate, some of it comes from
years of alert living. But The
odore would have a head
start with some formal in
struction in "the humanities."
Another example of how
education gets "rounded out"
by life, no matter what the
undergraduate majors or min
ors in, comes from an artist
we know. In college she stu
died along lines similar to
Theodore's. Afterwards, how
ever, to perfect her art -which
took the form of cer
amics - she found she needed
practical course in Chemis
try, Geology, Metallurgy. Ar
chaeology, among other
down - to - earth disciplines.
So, Mr. N., let's say that
Theodore is majoring in The
Good Life, with sub-division
A under that, The Good Living.
