The Most Important Tiling
Today is election day in School District 549C,
when the voters will pass on the 1968-64 budget.
This is not to discuss the merits of the pro
posal. But it is an appropriate time to wonder
what it is that motivates citizens to serve on
school boards and budget committees, devoting
hours and hours of their own time, week after
week, month after month, year after year with
no reward except the feeling that one has had
some small part in the improvement of the oppor
tunities open to the young people of the com
munity. The editor of the Pendleton East Oregonian
was musing along these lines recently. He knows
(as a former "Oregon Education Citizen of the
Year" himself, and as a member of the State
Board of Higher Education) the demands upon
the citizen volunteers who are responsible for our
educational system.
t
AND in his column he quoted the current Ore
gon Education Citizen of the Year about his
own philosophy.
The 1962 award winner is S. E. Brogoitti. He
is a farmer and lives in one of the smallest com
munities of the state. Yet he took the time to
serve on local school boards, is now a member
of the State Board of Education, and is a mem
ber of the National Association of School Boards.
He has traveled thousands of miles and spent
thousands of his own dollars in the course of his
service.
Why? As paraphrased by the Pendleton ed
itor, Mr. Brogoitti put it this way:
"It began Willi me. I realized how much more I
could have done if 1 had been well educated. It spread
from there and I soon saw that there is nothing that
we do in our society that is as important as educating
our young people. All the good that this country has
done is the result of education. All the problems our
nation has can he solved only by well educated people.
There is no oilier place we invest our dollars that
brings us greater returns. Without gooTI education
we do much less that we should. With it, we can
have everything."
a
LIERE, today, in the second half of the 20th
century, with what appear to be Insuperable
problems on every hand here is a man who,
because he lacked all its
the solution not in whining arid whimpering, or
blaming others, or in chasing demons, but in
raising up a generation who can solve them,
through educated brainpower.
If anyone should ask you what is the most
important thing in the world today, you would
be well advised to answer in Mr. Brogoitti's
words :
". . . There is nothing
ciety that is as important
people."
Congratulations, Mr.
you. E. A.
A Plan for Alcatraz
The last of ihe prisoners have left Alcatraz
prison, and the grim, fortress-like buildings and
the island on which they stand long a land
mark of San Francisco hay will soon be de
clared "surplus" by the federal government.
I'he problem arises
island?
Should it be taken over by the city and county
of San FranCisCO? Or lV the State?
Considerable discussion has been generated
. i ... . i . ,i i I p
in the May Area by this problem, and several ot
the ideas have merit.

Airmen Thanked
To the Editor: I am sending j
you a copy of a letter I sent
to Colonel Witzenburger, com
mander al Kingsley Field. I
intended the letter for the
men at the base. However, I
think certain people in our
area should understand that
their, opinion of sonic booms is
not the majority viewpoint.
The letter is self-explanatory.

sonic booms. This is all it

11IIY all this?
Nobody seems to be very j
sure of the origin of it all. j
But its very old. It just
might be a relic of the Ro-
man festival of Cerealia, held
at the beginning of April. The
tale is that Proserpina was
sporting in the Elysan mea-
dows, and had just . filled her
lap with daffodils, when
Pluto snatched her up and
carried her off to the lower
world.
Her mother Ceres heard the
echo of her screams and went
in search of the voice she
bad heard. But in vain. Her
search was a "fool's errand "
APRIL is quite a month in

ments of policy
thp ripfnnsp huriffnl nan ho rr-
duced down to something like
Ihe last Eisenhower defense '
budget for fiscal 1962. i
General Eisenhower does
not support, because he thinks
ii unnecessary, the Kennedy
enlargement of our strategic ;
p ... ,
ana 01 our conventional
forces. It would be interesting j
to hear him argue, not merely
assert, this very important
proposition.
uenerai Elsenhower s see-
ond difference of policy is on
the program to put a man on
the moon and get him back
again before 1970. This is, as
he says, a crash program
which is spectacular, but too
costly. Here, too. is an issue
which ought to be debated,
AN THE first question, that
U I !

1 c v e 1 lo the Eisenhower
level, the general must
know that the prospects are
poor. For defense, this Con
gress wants to spend more.
not less, than do President
ts.enneay ana secretary Mc-
Namara, Congress would be
horrified at going back to the
Eisenhower level. Indeed, the
controversies which arc rag -
ing around the "McNamara
Monarchy" all originate in his
refusal to spend, money that
certain
officers, politicians
and contractors want to have
spent. !
General Eisenhower knows;
that. He learned it when he
was President, and his vale-
j dictory on television will long
I be remembered for its warn-
I ing that "in the councils of
1 government, we must guard
against the acquisition of un-
warranted influence, whether
sought or unsought, by the
military-industrial complex."
Believeing that, General Ei- i
Senhower niirht tn Inko a
: long dosc look at lhc em
battled secretary of defense,
and hc snould ask himself
whether the root of Secretary i
McNamara-s troubles is not1
that hc has the will and the
know-how ana the guts to
bring military spending under j
rational control. If Mr. Mc
Namara is overwhelmed, Gen- j
cral Eisenhower can give up
for lost any serious notion
that military spending will
be cut back.
A S TO putting a man on the
moon, the real question,
I bclive, is not whether it Is
too expensive. The real qucs-'
tion is whether the country !
would support a gigantic re
search and scientific explora-
,lon 111 outer space it it were
not prodded by the fear that

What General Eisenhower
thinks, so it seems, is that we
should "demonstrate common
sense" about the nrod and the
lure. We should spend less
