10 A FRIDAY, OCTOBER 25. 1963 MEOFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON 35-Hour Week Said Needed To Increase Jobs WASHINGTON (UPI) - An 1 AFL-C10 spokesman said today the fact that a recent upsurge in production did not make a dent in heavy unemployment showed the need (or a 35-hour week and increased public works spending to create more jobs. AFL-CIO Research Director Nathaniel Goldfinger said t h e jobless ratio held steady at 5.6 per cent of the labor force dur ing the past year while the nation's output of goods and services rose by $31.7 billion. The third-quarter advance in the Gross National Product the barometer of output reached a two-year peak of $8.9 billion but unemployment did not show any significant drop this summer, Goldfinger added. Instead, the economy expand ed just enough to provide jobs for 1 million more persons (he same number who entered the labor force looking for work during the past 12 months. Productivity Advances Goldfinger said an "extraor dinary" rise in productivity output per man-hour was mainly responsible for the par adox of rising production with out corresponding increases in job openings. Productivity may have ad vanced from 3.5 to 4 per cent during the third quarter of 1963, he said, on top of 1961 and 1962 productivity advances of well over 3 per cent. "This confirms our belief that It's necessary to have very substantial increases in produc tion to have an effect on em ployment," he said in an inter view. The AFL-CIO is supporting President Kennedy's proposed $11 billion tax cut because this will provide a "quick lift" to the economy, Goldfinger said. But a tax reduction is no cure all, he said, and cannot be ex pected to restore full employ ment within the foreseeable future.

Kremlin propagandists aggra vated man-on-thc-strcet anger with the Peking regime in the Sino-Sovict ideological dispute and made it clear that they view the split as permanent. Violent anti-Peking letters in the press showed they were succeeding. They rewrote the entry for Communist China in the year book of the Soviet grand ency clopedia and buried a brief dis patch about the arrival of a Red Chinese "friendship" delegation in Moscow on the back page of Pravda in fine print. -Proposal Considered Japanese sources reported that their embassy here is consider ing a proposal to require Jap anese nationals to wear rising sun emblems so that they will not he taken as Chinese. "The possibility is not exclud ing, an embassy spokesman said, "that such identification would become standard (or Jap anese in the U.S.S.R." One Japanese newspaperman told United Press International that he was molested by two Russians in Moscow's Gorki Park. "Are you a Chinese?" the newsman quoted the Russians as asking him. He said he insisted that he was Japanese but the Russians did not believe him. "I had to restrain them from attacking me," he said. Another Japanese citizen re ported that he was asked by a group of Russians on the street, "Why don't you go back to China?" Nothing serious has occurred so far, according to diplomatic sources, to produce an official protest from the Japanese gov ernment. But the situation is worsening, largely because of the intense Soviet efforts to dis credit Communist China.

It criticized Red China's "great leap for ward" in agriculture and indus try, and dismissed Peking's foreign policy in one paragraph. The 1962 edition of the year book contained long entries containing favorable comments about Chinese foreign affairs, and described the successes of the Chinese economy in glow ing terms. Small Article A three-sentence story, print ed in telephone directory-size type, on the arrival in Moscow of an eight-man Communist Chi nese delegation headed by Liu Chih Chien, vice-chief of the po litical, department of Mao Tze- Tung s army. Diplomatic sources said the delegation, representing the all but defunct "Sino-Soviet Friendship Soci' ety," was here strictly as a pro tocol gesture and would return to Peking soon after the Oct. 1 anniversary of the Chinese revo lution.

Wayne Morse and Rep. Edith Green on opposing sides of the chasm. They will lead their respective Senate and House conferees in attempting to compromise the differences in the recently passed higher education bills. Both have been warned, in ef fect, by their colleagues not to draw back on the differing points which their respective legislation contains. But they must find some ground for compromise or there will be no college aid bill. Mrs. Green says she is "cautiously optimistic." The House Dill provides si.z billion in grants and loans to all public and private colleges, ex cept seminaries, for the con struction of any academic facil ities, excluding those in which sectarian subjects would be taught. Same Restrictions The Senate bill calls for $2 billion in grants and loans, and carries the same restrictions against the religious use of buildings. But it further restricts the construction grants to cer tain categories: science and en gineering buildings, laboratories and libraries. Neither bill permits money to be used for buildings to which admission fees are charged, stadiums, gyms, or for dormi tories, or for medical schools. (Both Houses earlier this year passed a bill to aid medical schools). There was southern opposition in the Senate particularly against grants. Morse himself believes that such undesignated grants to be unconstitutional, but he believes categorical grants such as the Senate voted to be constitutional. Mrs. Green and her House colleagues hold that if it is con stitutional to grant money for certain categories such as the sciences, it is constitutional for arts and humanities buildings as well. Sen. Sam Ervin of North Caro lina attached an amendment which will allow any private citizen to bring suit in a federal court to test the law's consti tutionality. The "sleeper" in the Ervin amendment was a pro vision that the government could not allocate any money once a suit is filed, which would in effect tie up the building funds. Morse was warned not to jet tison this amendment. Another amendment by Sen. John Cooper, R-Ky., failed which would have barred funds to private colleges. Cooper ar gued that grants to private col leges violate the first amend ment to the Constitution, which says that Congresss shall make no law respecting an stablisn- ment of religion. Cooper sup ported his arguments by quoting a Supreme Court decision which said in part: "No tax in any amount large or small, can be levied to sup port any religious activities or institutions, whatever tney may be called, or whatever form they may adopt to teach or practice religion." Cooper conceded that Cong ress had voted millions of dol lars in the past to colleges which were church-related, but he claimed this bill offering direct grants for construction was "go ing far beyond" what had been done before. Precedents Established Morse argued that Congress, which only passes laws it be lieves to be constitutional, had established precedents in legis lation "as long as your arm for federal aid to colleges. He j cited a direct grant for an atomic reactor for Notre Dame; the medical construction bill which gave grant money to sec tarian medical schools; and list ed varius programs such as the National Defense Education Act, National Science Foundation, and the like in support of his argument. Mrs. Green was warned by Republicans in the House dur ing the August debate by the Republicans not to come back with a bill with categorical grants, that is, restrictions of federal money for science build ings, laboratories and libraries. "I do not like categorical grants," said Mrs. Green. "I think there is too much empha sis on science and engineering and that there is a great need for aid in the humanities. This is especially true of the small liberal arts colleges . . . their most urgent need may well not be a science or engineering building." Morse served polite notice on the House conferees, which in cludes Mrs. Green, that the Sen ate had already compromised (by not including Republican disapproved scholarships in its bill) and, in effect, that now it was the House's turn. Repub lican votes are essential for House passage of a bill. Whether or not a higher edu cation bill is finally voted turns on many factors, not the least of which is a spirit of coopera tion between Senator Morse and Mrs. Green. As one Democratic senator said in private "If we can only get Morse and Mrs. Green together we'll be all right."

Clara I!. It's better than go ing out with the bores he in vites over. IMr. H. V. Our daughter has just passed a Civil Service exam and plans to take a job in Wash ington. The same exam qual ifies her for a good position in New York where she can con tinue living at home and where we can keep an eye on her. We trust her, but by nature she's shy and only goes out when we push her. She's 24 and that's no age to hole up alone with a book. Clara II. My father is so worried I'll never get married that he refuses to see the ad vantages in my move to the Capital. I'll be right in the mid dle of the city where history is being made. I'll see and maybe meet a few world leaders. As ; for my social life, I'll g e t around, and if I don't, I have an aunt in Baltimore who'll probably hound me so much I'll think I'm home. The Council: Nobody's fooling Clara, except maybe Clara her self. There is some merit to her Dad's objection to the flight from home. A marriageable girl who wants to marry will manage to make every day, week, month and year count to bring her clos er lo the desired state. And speaking of states, there are only two with lots of unmarried men under 30: New York and California. As for widowers, four slates Pennsylvania, Missou ri. Florida and New Hampshire number a high per cent among their unmarried men. So. from the "campaign" anRle, Washing ton may not be a promising battlefield. It may be another of those traps full of husbands just looking for sweet young girls who are. in turn, looking for husbands. On the other hand. Clara deserves a chance tt change her base of operations free from parental prod. Wash ington is an exciting, inspirit city and somewhere perhap at the Y or the Library Clar may accidentally bump into ar other; shy "bookworm" malt and then even Mr. U. will ap prrae the move. - What is it?
