It's probably a little late in the season to bring the matter up, since most school budgets have already been voted on, and because it has been explained so many times in the past. But it is evident that many people still do not know why they have to vote on school budgets each year, nor why the amounts "outside the 6 per cent limitation" sometimes seem so vast. Answers to both are fairly simple, and can be answered in one word: Growth. BACK BEFORE World War II, school popula tions were relatively stable, the number of students was inceasing only gradually, and prices were not going up year after year. So most school districts were able to operate on their fixed tax bases, the 6 per cent increase the state Constitution. But after the war, And the war stimulated sendine uu the number of Within a few yars, alone: and hit the elementary schools. Too. teachers' salaries began to rise, after long remaining below standards THESE FACTORS combined were so great that the school districts' tax bases soon became wholly inadequate. With school populations jumping each year, the b per cent increases per missible were nowhere near enough to keep up. So patrons had to vote approval each year. And this same process of growth growth in size, growth in necessary expenditures, growth in number of teachers. Growth in school facilities has cone on year after tricts. the amount outside exceeds that within the limitation. That, in brief, is why voters have to turn out year after year, and why risen, year alter year. But. after all, isn t youngsters about the best bargain we get? E.A. Translating Gobbledegook . Frank Jenkins, our editorial pace columnist from across the mountains, was complaining about diplomatic gobbledegook the other day. He quoted one fhuippe de iseynes, UN under secretary for -economic and social affairs, as follows: "It is true that Latin America is going through a particularly dangerous period in which the social aspira tions, having grown more rapidly than economic capac ity, express themselves in impatience and sometimes in anger. This is a period in Latin America in which certain archaic structures resist essential reforms." Jenkins complained: . "Well, he was talking in official Washington gobble degook, and as a result noboby outside Washington has even the foggiest idea of what he was talking about." COME, COME, Frank. It isn't that difficult. T.nr tic rpv a small ovprpisp in oionm,anhv j "Social aspirations"- of everyone for decent clothing and housing, adequate food, an education, and a job. Grown more rapidly ity" These hopes increase when people see others realizing them; everyone is poor, there money, or food, or education, to go around, and hopes rise faster than living standards. And surely, J? rank, you and anger are. AS FOR "certain archaic structures which "resist essential reforms," well, he's talking about quasi-dictatorships, situations where a very few rich families own most of the productive re sources and the rest of the families live at a near subsistence level, where the rate of illiteracy is veiy high, where political stability is non-ex istent in short, a situation about as close to feudalism as can be found today. It also covers an area where population is increasing faster than anywhere else m the Let us grant that Mr. clear and explicit as he might have been. cut let us also grant both understandable, to anyone who has observed Latin America in recent What he was talking about was, in large part, responsible for Fidel Castro's success in Cuba, and now is a clear and present danger in other Latin lands. And it's no laughing matter. E. A. Words of For an inveterate smoker one who knows that it does him no real good but who is "hooked" on the habit one of the most cheering things that can happen is to be on the mailing list of the Tobacco Industry Research Committee. For instance, a publication entitled "The Action of Nicotine on Functions" is reviewed timse ' t "This is a review of 184 scientific papers and testifies to the many lacunae in knowledge on the neuropharma cological effects of nicotine administered to humans and and to animals. The pharmacology or toxicology of tobacco-smoking and pharmacology and toxicology of nicotine are not identical, and often are not even com parable . , . This review covers spontr .eous activity, conditioned reflexes, learning, higher cerebral functions, medullary functions, cerebellar functions and spinal functions" And if that isn't enough to make a non-smok- er want to grab for the will ; K.

Govern ment regulators and dispens ers of lavish non-rail trans port subsidies arbitrarily de cide who shall carry whose freight for how much. Only in the free movement of mercy mission goods are the railroads allowed to exer cise their unsubsidized, self reliant initiative. To date more than 40 railroads have hauled free over 400 carloads of foods and drugs destined for shipment to Cuba in co operation with the American Red Cross in exchange for prisoners.

Most people think that they know and that they under stand it, but what they actual ly "understand" are the traits that human beings have devel oped under certain social and economic conditions. One of these traits, for ex ample, is acquisitiveness. Capitalist apologists loudly proclaim that a system that rejects private, ownership is "against human nature." Actually, however, it is only in the last few thousand years that man has had any concep tion of private property. Be fore he entered on this prop erty career man lived under conditions of primitive com munism and didn't even have words in his language to ex press mine" and "mine. There fore, whatever else acquisitiveness is, it positive ly is not a quality of human nature. Let's take competitiveness. Many people have the erron eous idea that this is an aspect of "human nature. ' But in many human societies com petitiveness is frowned upon as obnoxious. Among the Pueblo Indians of the South west, for example, the com- petive person is regarded as a trouble maker. Competitive ness, like acquisitiveness, Is trait developed In a competi tive society. It, too, is positive ly not a quality of human nature. If society were reconstruct ed in such a way as to make material wants readily and easily available, acquisitive ness would be dropped by the human race as completely as in the past It dropped its taste for human flesh and various other barbarous traits. Simi larly with competition. As long as society Is organized as it is at present, man will behave competitively. But when society is reconstructed MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE.

In its place will develop the higher trait of cooperation, the prop er foundation for brother hood. Lydia Burnham 814 Warne st. Prescott, Ariz.

God Have Pity To the Editor: In the Trib une 5-7-63 there was a letter by Lydia Burnham all should read. It was the best article on tobacco and its effect upon the human body I ever read in so few words. Such an article takes much research, and not that put out by the tobacco sponsors. Lydia worked many hours studying the truths learned by these great doctors, specialists in their field. Her article shows she has faith in them and their work, and she is right, that none can honestly dispute. However, much can be said for tobacco and liquor, if we don't count the cost. They bring in billions of dollars in revenue and labor. Think of the thousands of police nurses, doctors and morticians it takes to handle the drunks, the alcoholics, the broken and dead bodies caused by liquor in car wrecks and other acci dents: the cancer-eaten ulcer ated bodies from toe to brain, even the unborn are infected by the smoking, drinking mothers. Think of the thou sands of jails, hospitals, men tal institutions and mortuaries that must be built by labor to care for all these finished products of liquor and to bacco. Yes, Lydia, they bring in billions of dollars in revenue and labor and large profits for their sponsors, which look good until we count the costs. The aggregate costs of crime in the United States in a re cent year was $22,000,000,000, according to the F.B.I. Sixty per cent of all crime is liquor Involved. This would total $13,200,000,000, for liquor's part. Federal, state, county and municipal taxes were $4, 000,000.000. Thus for each dol lar received, $3.30 was spent Memories To Argentina, Now By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign News Analyst Bullet acars mar the metal grill work at the entry way to Argentina's General Con federation of Labor head- quarters i n Buenos Aires and a patch of concrete is a mem ento to I IV I a bomb.

Man's Best Friend A Constitutional Dog By Arthur Hoppe The growing use of vicious dogs to discourage Negroes from seeking their rights has raised grave questions in the minds of many Southern police officers. Such as: (1) Is there an adequate sup ply of vicious dogs? (2) Can they be trained rapidly enough to meet the ever increasing need? For the answer to these and other serious questions let us turn to a recognized ex pert, Colonel Jefferson Davis Stonewall, director of the Dixie Dug Develop ment School, the leading supplier of vicious animals to forward looking Southern communi ties. . Q-Colonel, I think the basic question today is: Can you fill the need? A-Well, son, our hopes are high, thanks to our new round-the-clock crash pro gram. However, it still takes time to develop a good, well- schooled Dixie Dog. ' Some things you just can't rush. Q-What are some of the obstacles you face? A-Well, first we not to make the dog vicious. That's the easy part. You take' a little old puppy dog and keep tweaking his ears and pulling his tail and he's going to get pretty mean. The hard part is teaching him about the Consti tution. " Q-The Constitution? Oh, you mean States' Rights. A-Yep, like Segregation. Now some White folks figure aog is just naturally for Segregation. Like a human. Not so. A dog, he's not awful long on brains. Just got to learn him right. Q-And how do you do that? A-framing. Now we aot two Kinas of instructors, White Instructors, and Black Instructors who ... Q-You mean Negro Instruc tors? A-Not on your life! This school's not integrated and never will be. I mean half bur instructors got white powder on their faces and the other naif got burnt cork. Q-Ingenious. , A-Yep. Now the Black In structor, he goes around kick ing the little old puppy dogs. And the White Instructor, he goes around a-handing them tid bits and a-petting them. Pretty soon, the little puppy dog, he gets to understand the whole inalienable principle of States' Rights. Q-As simple as black and wntte. A-Not quite. You see, son, some of our colored folk down here's not as black as they might be. So's as the dog gets older we got to make our White Instructors a mite dark er and our Black Instructors a mite lighter. Why, we got dogs who can tell an Octaroon from a movie starlet wearing Man Tan. Q-An essential distinction A-You bet. Take the time the Mayor of Biloxi come home from a Florida vacation and one of our dogs . . . But the Mayor, he shouldn't of been holding up that catfish. Q-Catfish? A-Yep. You sec, son, our to care for the crime caused by liquor. But this Is only costs In dollars; think of the cost in broken bodies along our highways, property dam age, broken homes: hungry. beaten children, as I expert enccd as a boy along with seven sisters. May God have pity upon a nation of people that will per mit such. We hear much today about the great sin of birth control, how we can save 3. 000 lives with scat belts, and the lives we destroy with capi tal punishment, while Satan blinds our eyes to the millions destroyed by liquor and to bacco, his two untouchables, his greatest assets is destroy ing the Image of God in the human family. F. E. Beverly 112 Geneva Medford of Peron Peron drew his power from the "shirtless ones" organized in the General Confederation of Labor (CGT), and although Peron has been gone for eight years, his followers cc.itinue to be the decisive factor in Argentine politics. It was fear of their return to power that led Argentina's military forces to depose President Arturo Frondizi 13 months ago, that led to two unsuccessful military revolts against current provisional President Jose Maria Guido last September and in April and which also precipitated the current government crisis. These bitterly opposing ele ments, the Peronistas on the Black Instructors wear this here heavy padding soaked in catfish oil. That way, our puppy dogs learn that colored folks are not only against the Constitution, but they taste good. Q-Coloncl, do you think these vicious dogs really un derstand the Constitution? A-Son, it is the proud boast of the Dixie Dog Development School that our graduates un derstand the inalienable prin ciples of the Constitution as well as any Southern police officer. Strictly Personal By Sydney J. Harris tc Field Enterprises. Inc. THOU SHALT NOT KILL' In any discussion of world problems and man's fate. somebody sooner or later is bound to proclain, with sweet smug ness, "Well, if we only would obey the Dec alogue, every thing would be fine. After all the Ten Command- nrri ments are still the best rules to follow. Yet, If we took such a man seriously and questioned him on only ONE of the Ten Com mandments, and perhaps the most important, what would be the result? ' Thou shalt hot kill." A plain, flat statement, without qualification or modification. What does our friend of the Decalogue say to this? Does he accept it, completely and unequivocally? Or does he try to get around it in one way or another? First of all, he will say that wa have a '"light" to kill in self-defensa - avan though tha Decalogue does nof say, "Thou shalt not kill, except in self-defense." Than ha will say that society has a right to kill the offenders, if their of fense is deemed grievous enough - even though tha first killer. Cain, was not executed by God but was branded and sent into ex ile. Next, he will insist that a nation has tha "right" to kill anemias in time of war; ha may deplore such a nec essity (and generals are the greatest deplorers of all), but ha does not doubt that tha Lord is on tha side of tha "just" nation. Ha will also point to many Old Test ament passages which seem to confirm his position. So, finally, what does the commandment. "Thou shalt not kill," amount to? It amounts to whatever wa want to make it. Nobody but a "crank" takes tha commandment 1 i t a r a llyt nearly everybody believes that under certain condi tions it is right and proper to kill. Hardly anyone ex cept Socrates, Jesus and a few saints has aver truly be lieved that it is batter to suffer pain than to inflict it. The trouble with the Ten Commandments is not that un believers flout it; it is that even "believers" do not be lieve it, do not agree on it, do not act on it. A simple sen tence of four one-syllable words, "Thou shalt not kill," has confounded Christendom for two thousand years - for the bloodiest wars of all have been religious wars. Of course, "everything would be fine" if we followed the Ten Commandments. It is not even that we TRY to follow them and fail - it is that, confronted with these four plain words, we interpret them as we want to, for we have made our Eleventh Com mandment: "Thous shalt fol low the Dccalougc only until it hurts." Revolution in Electoral Fight one hand and the military on the other, now are approach ing national elections sched uled for July 7. Their differences still are unresolved and even should Guido solve his present crisis, there remain more reasons than not to believe it is only the beginning of another series between' now and elec tion day. In the end, elections may not even be held. Outside the military, there are at the moment in Argen tina three political groupings. One of these is the Peron ista Popular Union. Another is the intransigent Radicals, the party of former President Frondizi, which hopes for Peronista support behind the presidential can didacy of Dr. Oscar Alende, a former governor of Buenos Aires. The third is the Popular Radical Party which backs Dr. Arturo Illia, another phy sician, as its presidential candidate. Today & Tomorrow By Walter c) 1963, The BIRMINGHAM Once again the federal gov ernment is being compelled to intervene forcibly in the struggle over the rights of M . a - S GS1U"- n-a 5f ,?T?1 and in the Uni versity of Mis sissippi, and now in Bir mingham, the c o n t r o lling fact which has Lippmann led to the fed eral intervention is the open defiance of the federal law by state governments. In Birmingham, a moderate and modest accommodation was arrived at by Assistant Attorney General Burke Mar shall's successful mediation between the Negro leaders in the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS The news? There's a lot of it - some of it grim and tragic. What s happening in Bir mingham, for example. WHAT is happening in Bir mingham? Back In the 5th century B.C., Euripides wrote: "The gods visit the sins of the fa thers upon the children." The fathers of the present generation in the Deep South, which includes Alabama, brought black men and wom en, in chains, from Africa to America, to be SLAVES. - Euripides was right. AT CAPE CANAVERAL in Florida, as this is written, a calm and collected Ameri can is preparing to take off in an attempt to orbit the earth 22 times in a 34 hour flight covering 600,000 miles and soaring above more than 100 countries - and COMING BACK TO EARTH AT A SE LECTED SPOT in the Pacific Ocean some 100 miles south of Midway Island. FROM Brisbane, Australia: A rtptitA Amprlpon wifo who quit the kitchen for the air ten years ago landed in Brisbane in a light plane, be coming the first woman to fly alone across the Pacific from California. Freckle -faced, 36-year-old Betty Miller left Oakland on April 30, flying alone in the twin-engined plane that her husband had taught her to fly. A STUNT? " Not exactly. She was ferrying the plane to its new owner in Australia. So she regarded it as a strictly business enterprise. Her total elapsed flying time was 54 hours and eight minutes. When she stepped out of the cockpit - in a pink and white checkered frock, she reported that the only time she was really worried was when she had to make it half-way to Honolulu or TURN BACK in order to keep from running out of fuel. She had another little flur ry of excitement when, about half way to Brisbane, a storm approaching cyclone propor tions loomed in her path. She turned back and landed in New Caledonia to give the storm time to blow itself out. faUESTlON: What would Leonardo da Vinci, who imagined the first airplane and made designs of it but never built a plane be cause in his day the internal combustion engine had not yet been imagined to power an artificial bird, have thought if someone had told him that the time would come when a WOMAN would fly a plane half around the earth TO DELIVER IT TO ITS PURCHASER. it Return Running hard for office but without a popular following is Gen. Pedro Aramburu, who served as provisional presi dent after Peron's overthrow in 1955 until 1958. ' ' ; Aramburu's main hope i that differences among the political parties will prevent the other candidates from -receiving a majority vote. ' ' In that case, the electoral college could name him -as the compromise choice. In the elections held a little more than a year ago and later annulled, the Peronista piled up more than 30 per cent of the total vote. Argentina' continuing economic ills have led to forecasts that in any free election now, they might poll as high as 40 per cent. Their appeal lies in a vague program of "social justice." - They claim to be In favor of the U. S. sponsored Alli ance for Progress, for eco nomic and industrial develop ment and a third force which would walk between capital ism and communism. " '' Lippmann Washington Poit and the leading members of the white community. But the accommodation was denoun ced by the city officials .who are still in office and received no support from the governor. These authorities are morally responsible for the bombing which then led to the rioting. There is no hope that reason and sanity and good will can prevail as long as the con stituted authorities are op posed to accommodation. - - SO THE nation is defied by a state government - at tempting to nullify the federal law. The United States gov ernment cannot submit la nullification in Alabama, Even if the federal govern- ' ment uprp nnnrtnrinlrf enough to be willing to look the other way, the mounting desperation of the Negro peo ple, so brilliantly reported-by Mr. Robert S. Bird in the Nsw York Herald Tribune,- would make it impossible. The men tality of this generation; of Negroes is far removed from that of their ancestors, and they are shedding very rapid ly the docility ot the - slave mentality. We must have no illusions that the Neffrn nrotpat .mill subside even though the -dis orders in Birmingham are overcome. There are very dif ficult issues ahead in Ala bama. In the coming months, there is almost certain to be confrontation between tha. state government of Alabama and the federal government over desegregation in the uni versity. Probably before the opening of the university in June, the federal district murfc will hand down an order to admit to - the Huntsvlllo branch of the university two Neffro emDlnvees nf the Mar shall Space Center. One of tne negroes is a mathematic ian and the other iff. nn aIap. tronics engineer. The Hunts ville branch of the university was set up in order to enable tne employees of the space center to continue their educa tion. ...... That is not all. There will ' probably soon be a federal court order to admit a Negro to the University in Tusca loosa and also a court order to desegregate the Birmingham public schools. , ALL THIS makes not only-e hi O Kan nf mmMMi. 1 . o " K'wibmo, vut a disorderly one.
