Your Money's Worth By SYLVIA PORTER Capyrlf k. Hill Symlic.l., l. POLICING PUBLIC RELATIONS In San Francisco next week, top men in the public relations field will take a major step toward effective self-regulation by initiating the first program to "accredit" public relations coun selors who meet specific standards of ethics, education, training and experience. The accreditation program will be announced at the annual convention of the Public Relations Society of America, the pro fession's national association to which 4,500 corporation execu tives specializing in public relations and independent counselors belong. While it must be accepted by the counsel members, ap proval is taken for granted. The association will set up stiff preliminary qualifications for candidates for accreditation and then will require the candidates to pass written and oral exams extending over three days. It will distinguish between qualified and unqualified public relations counselors by awarding "PRSA accreditation" to individuals who earn it and it will inaugurate a nationwide campaign to educate businessmen and the general public to the meaning of the dis tinction. This will represent the association's first attempt to pre vent the entry into the field of untrained, unscruplous men and women to eliminate those whose borderline and even Illegal activities have too frequently blackened the reputations of everybody in public relations. "It's one of the most important things the profession has ever done," says Mrs. Denny Griswold, publisher and founder of the 20-year-old "Public Relations News," oldest and most widely cir culated newsletter in the field. "The warnings have been clear that if public relations practi lioners did not move to police themselves, the government would force policing on them. The profession is acting for itself. The development is the latest in an ever-widening drive by thoughtful leaders in the financial and business communities to strengthen their codes of ethics and to raise standards of opera tion on their own and the drive is a direct result of the critical , report by the Securities & Exchange Commission on the "grave abuses" in the stock markets, in public relations and in financial reporting. Of course, some organizations were tightening up before the SEC completed its 17-month probe of the securities markets, but there s no question but that the SEC s report this year has ac celerated the trend. For instance, just in the past several months, the New York Slock Exchange has severely stiffened its rules governing adver tising and the giving of stock market advice by its member firms. The Financial Analysts Federation has developed its own pio neering exams for financial analysts and only a few weeks ago granted to 260 experienced analysts the new designation "Char tered Financial Analyst." Working together, the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange and the National Asso ciation of Securities Dealers have substantially raised the entrance requirements, toughened the training courses and the exams for securities salesmen. Regulation of the securities field is still far from perfect but never has self-policing been on this scale. Now comes the PRSA with its accreditation program and pledge of an unprecedented degree of self-discipline. The need Is undeniable, for as Mrs. Griswold emphasizes, "Public relations has in a short time grown to the point where it crosses the entire fabric of our society. Its practitioners speak to the public in every area, ranging from government lo religion, from business to education. Hard rules must be written and obeyed." Yet, up to now policing has been soft and fuzzy. As the SEC's report underlined, under the guise of "public relations" smart-money men have been deliberately spreading misinformation about their corporation clients, blatantly touting company stocks, unethically using inside information to play the stock market, recklessly bringing the whole field into disrepute. This accreditation program is only a start. But if firmly imple mented, it is a move in the direction of true professionalism for public relations counselors.

ROBERT SMITH Mill Tilbuni Washington Correspondent they hoped to avert deeper cuts Morse, however, was not as sauged by this bipartisan pro posal which he lambasted as a "powerhouse amendment." He failed in his attempt to recom mit the bill to committee for major revision but succeeded in cutting the compromise bill by another $25 million. The vote was 42 to 40 in favor of Morse's amendment. Senators who supported Morse proved a mixture of Republi cans and Democrats, liberals and conservatives, One liberal Democrat who supported Morse's amendment explained the mood of the majority this way: "Most senators think this whole foreign aid program needs a good shaking up." He said if Morse weren't out in front leading the attack, somebody else would. Other ob servers think Morse, the unique ly outspoken senator that he is, is articulating what many sen ators, especially Democrats, are hesitant to say out loud because such criticism is at odds with Kennedy's program and U. S. foreign policy. Sen. Maurine Neuberger op posed most of Morse's efforts to :lash the foreign aid bill, thus remaining an administration stalwart on this issue. Morse eviently has his ear to the ground on this issue. A Senate staff memhar whn has xamined letters from Oregon vmers sam: -ine people are ?i up with foreign aid." Morse's i ngular trips home these days tlive him abundant opportunity tn sense public sentiment. Traditionally the House cuts foreign aid to the bone and the Senate restores much of it be fore the bill gets to the White House. But this year for the first time the Senate is equally rebellious and Wayne Morse is out front leading the charge, U.S. foreign aid may never be the same after the Senate's October November revolt of 1963. WASHINGTON Sen. Wayne Morse is enjoying an hour of triumph in the Senate wmcn may turn out to be an historic fiimins noint in America's post war policy of granting financial aid to foreign nations on a grand scale. The Oregon senator, always an internationalist in his own political philosophy, is leading a successful attacK on me Ken nedy Administration's request for continued foreign aid. By rallying the votes to prove that there is sufficient agreement within the Senate in favor of substantial cuts in foreign aid, Morse is forcing the leaders to give ground. Morse has been critical of foreign aid in recent years, no tably military aid which is used by authoritarian regimes to op press segments of their own peo ple. The oppression of Buddhists last August in South Viet Nam with military forces supplied by U.S. aid has been the most no torious recent example, which Morse denounced. All-Out Attack But this year the senator started an all-out attack on the foreign aid program. For a time he made a daily speech to blast some aspect of the program. The administration asked for $4.5 billion but the House ap proved authorization of only $3.5 billion. In the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Morse tried to keep the total down to about the House level but was outvoted. The committee sent to the Senate a bill for $4.2 billion and Morse took his fight to the Senate floor, where it has raged since Oct. 28. In opening his defense of the committee bill, Foreign Rela tions Chairman J. W. Fulbright sensed the mood of congression al rebellion. He acknowledged that the aid program was be comine "obsolescent" but he argued that tampering with it this year would be too risky. His attempt to hold the line failed. Senate leaders of both parties, recognizing the prevailing mood, put together a compromise to trim $385 million from the com mittee version, reducing the to tal to $3.8 billion.
