Folks Gripe; Pupils Cheer PITTSBURGH (AP) A group of pupils of Rankin High School cheered Monday night as some of their parents ticked off a list of complaints which led 88 members ol the junior class to picket the school. The complaints were voiced at a meeting of the School Board, held in the school auditorium aft er the parents insisted the pupils be admitted. . The pupils walked out of classes Monday complaining Thomas A. Rogers, a history teacher at the school for 21 years, assigned as much as four hours of homework each night. They set up a picket line and carried placards. Rousing cheers went up in the crowded auditorium with each ad ditional complaint voiced by the parents, including lack of a driv er's training course and a student council. School Supt. Maurice Silverstein reprimanded the cheering pupils and parents, saying they were re sorting to "mob rule." He called for another meeting tonight with Ttnecrs in attendance. Rogers said he was surprised by the picketing, lie said he had as signed no more homework to nis present class than in" other years. Silverstein, who met earlier with pupil representatives, said plans call for the formation this term of student councils and a driver's training course. "We worked out what thought was fair for the students and the teacher." he said. "But we couldn't get the students back to their classes. "They're out enjoying them selves. They'll come to their senses. They're just getting rid of this emotion of theirs." by former Secretary of State Dean Acheson "resulted in war and the Eisenhower-Dulles policy resulted in peace." He spoke out in reply to a critical weekend statement from the Democratic Advisory Council. Mansfield, the assistant Senate Democratic leader. expressed hope that foreign policy "does not become a political issue" but said his party's members have a rignt to criticize administration actions in the foreign field. Because Democrats express dis agreement with some policies .Mansfield cautioned. no one should harbor the illusion thai Americans are a disunited peo ple. A similar note was sounded Sunday by Chairman Theodore F. Green (D-RU of the Senate tor- jeign Relations Committee after a meeting with Secretary of State Dulles. Green had publicly criti cized current administration pol icy. Sen. Wavne Morse (D-Ore), line Mansfield a foreign relations com mitteeman, said without elaborat ing he understood Dulles had sought to limit public discussion of the policies. Morse added in a telegram to Green: I shall continue to criticize the Eisenhower-Dulles foreign policy on the public platform because it is a matter the American people are entitled to have discussed freely and openly." But in a Dayton. Ohio, speech, GOP National Chairman Meade Alcorn contended that "those Democrats who are playing pol itics with our national security have embarked upon a hazardous venture. In his statement, Nixon credited the Chinese Communist action in extending their cease-fire to "the irm stand we have taken in the Formosa Strait." Nixon said he recognizes that the Democratic Advisory Council does not speak for millions ol Democrats who approve and sup port the Eisenhower leadership m the field of foreign policy." Nixon said those in the Demo cratic party who insist on making foreign policy an issue in mis campaign have left us no choice but to present to the American people the record of success of Ihe Eisenhower administration and compare it with the record of failure of the seven years that preceded it, he said.

ANNUAL BAZAAR MONTAGUE - The home of Mrs. James Walker of Montague was recently the setting for the so cial meeting of the Montague Wom en's Society of Christian Service, al which time arrangements were completed for the organization's annual bazaar. Assisting Mrs. Walker with hostess duties was the president of the group, Mrs. Tom Lennon. A man who has seen America from many points of view shared his definitions of our country with a chamber of commerce forum Jlonday opening the chamber's winter series of monthly forums open to anyone who is interested. The speaker was Dr. Orlo M. Brees of Palo Alto, California, who has been a coal miner, teach er, editor, state legislator, publish er and Baptist minister. He ap peared Monday as a representa tive of the National Association of Manufacturers. Dr. Brees defined America as a heritage, a way of life and a fu lure. He explained his definitions in a swiftly moving, quasi-humor ous delivery that praised America without inhibitions. "Ours is a heritage of ideas," Dr. Brees said. "Ideas that make you take your feet down off the desk and make you do something about it." These ideas, he said, represent equality, responsibility and free dom. He took a swipe at "our present generation of young Amer icans who were brought up on the idea that the government owes them a living and that they don't have to do a thing. Of freedom, he said "every gen eration has to fight for its own freedom must be nourished by the blood of living hearts and minds. The best we can do is give (each generation) the knowledge and the tools. He also had comments about the cost of government, and explained it this way. the lederal govern ment will spend more than 71 bil lion dollars this year. How much is that? "Well, if you did nothing but count dollar bills, one dollar every second for eight hours a day, seven days a week, it would lake you 684 years to count 71 billion dollars." 'And if vou finish that and still have something to do," he cracked "try counting up how much we owe. 1 hat 11 take you 2.im years. He warned against bigotry and ignorance in speaking of our way of life, censured demagogues at though he named none, and ad vised: "Jumping at conclusions is a very poor form of mental ex ercise." Considering the future, he said, "The life of a free man is a life of hazard. That is the only way it can be," and he said a per son "should he judged by his des tination not his origin." Dr. Brees also took a few mo ments to dispel what he called misconceptions of the National Association of Manufacturers. Six ty per cent of whose members, he said, were employers of fewer than 100 persons. "The NAM has been swapping punches wilh peddlers of pink prop aganda ever since 18:)5," he said. Dr. Brees was introduced by Leo Morstad.

(AP) Vir ginia's highest court has set the stage for a crucial hearing, prob ably early next month, to deter mine the validity of key anti-inte-gralion laws. One law has already Drought the shutdown of nine white schools and displacement of more than 13.1100 pupils. The Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals appointed a Lynchburg attorney, Samuel H. Williams, lo serve as defense counsel in action brought by the slate. Arguments prohably can be heard at the start of the court s November session. There was also a possibility an early hearing would allow the justices to pass on constitutional issues involving the state s school closing, fund-culolf and tuition grant laws later in Ihe month. U.S. Judge John Paul s ruling that schoolteachers paid out of public funds cannot be used in segregated emergency schooling at both Charlottesville and Front Royal in Warren County goes into effect Wednesday. Makeshift programs set up at Charlottesville to accommodate most of Ihe 1,700. displaced while pupils in that city were jolted severely by the ruling. An emer geney program planned lor 1,045 idled pupils at Ihe Warren County School had not gone into operation when Paul s decision came. The private school organizations apparently had a choice of con tinuing lo use the public school teachers but operating on a ra cially nondiscriminatory basis. trying to organize new leaching staffs composed of other teachers plus any who might wish to he released from (heir contracts, or closing down operations altogether.
