Solons Mull Long Speech FORT WORTH, Tex. (API Louisiana Gov. Earl K. Long. resting from his political strug gles at home, awaited today possible call to address the Texas Legislature. Long, who has been running for re-election and fighting over voter laws and legislation concerning commitments to mental hospitals, said he was willing to address the Texas Legislature if it wants him. The Legislature, however, is struggling to pass a vital spend ing and tax hill before the end of a second speciM session Thurs day. The physically ailing 63-year-old governor, who has been in and out of three mental hospitals in two months, topped off a day of se clusion in his hotel suite by visit ing a quarter-horse ranqh Sunday night. Earlier ho issued a statement apologizing to the press for his actions when he arrived by plane in Texas Saturday night. The gov ernor, irked by photographers and newsmen, draped a pillow slip over his face and cursed attempts to photograph or interview him. Louisiana State Sen. B. B. Ray burn, Long's key legislative aide, said the governor would take a sightseeing trip today and hold a press conference. Long has said he will stay in Fort Worth until Wednesday be fore continuing a vacation trip to the West Coast and Canada, just in case the Texas Legislature would like him to: make an ad dress, f One of the first things he did on arriving here was to place calls to Austin to inform officials he was available. Whether he gels an invitation to address the Legislature, now em broiled in efforts to pass a tax and spending bill in the waning moments of a second special ses sion, was problematical. Gov. Price Daniel said it was up to the Legislature. English teachers are just as enthusiastic. Thejfearful chore of correcting up to 200 themes for all her classes, a job estimated to take 33 hours, has been lighten ed. ' More writing can be assigned, which means writing is improved. "You can't learn to write with out writing," says Henry Chaun cey, president of the Educational Testing Service of Princeton. The idea of using so-called "lay leaders" to help English teachers popped into Chauncey's head sev eral years ago. But he takes no credit for it. "I had the original idea but ideas are a dime a dozen." he says. "The important Ihing is the way they're carried out. So the credit should go to Paul Diode- rich for having conducted the pro gram and the fund for the ad vancement of education for spon soring it." Diedcrich is on the staff of ETS, a nonprofit corporation which con ducts educational research and tests for schools, colleges, the gov ernment and the professions. The Fund for the Advancement of Education provided $150,000 to develop the program. And Diede- rich tried it out first during the 1957-58 school year at New Bruns wick High School and nearby Bound Brook High School. A women's page story in the New Brunswick Daily Home News announced the experiment. A total of 110 women applied in person in New Brunswick and 67 more in Bound Brook. Others telephoned. Only six readers, plus six substitutes, were to be chosen in New Brunswick. The field was narrowed with the help of ETS and its testing ex perience. The applicants got a verbal aptitude lest, paper-grading test, paper-correction test and wrote a shorl paper on a choice of topics. The 20 who stood high est were interviewed. New Brunswick High has a total enrollment of 1,575. About 16 Eng lish teachers were assigned lay readers for some, but not all, of their classes. Between 500 and 525 students in grades 10 through 12 thus had the benefit of lay read ers. Diederick says homework writ ing assignments in many schools are down to four or five a year. The teachers can't handle the grading of any more. Diederick says no feature of the plan is copyrighted and ETS will make test materials available to any other high schools which care to launch such a program.

RYAN AP Foreign News Analyst Frol Romanovich Koziov can turn the results of his two-weeR tour of the United States to a use ful purpose. He is now in a posi tion to ' advise his boss, Soviet Premier Nikila Khrushchev against any fatal miscalculation regarding the strength and inten tions of this country. It was the Soviet first deputy premier s first venture in his totally indoctrinated adult life out side the Communist orbit. It would have been difficult for him not to be impressed by what he saw in the United States. To a news conference on the eve of his departure lor Moscow he insisted his trip did not change his mind about one thing: that the U n i t e d Slates someday will live under a Soviet-like system. But Khrushchev will be interested in his notions about the timetable for this. It is likely Khrushchev will want as factual a report as possible lo compare it with the findings of First Deputy Premier A. 1. Miko- yan, who made the same trip early this year. Between the two reports Khrushchev may believe he can get an idea o( what sort of resistance the U.S. government and public might put up to further Communist expansion. The two men probably will dif fer in interpretation "of the things they have seen. Mikoyan is an old Bolshevik revolutionary with highly cynical outlook toward things as they seem to be. Koziov is a born bureaucrat, reprcsenta- tive of the new generation of Soviet functionaries who .know nothing of revolution first hand. He was only 8 years old when the Bolsheviks seized power. Because he was an old Bolshe vik and one-lime confidante of Stalin, because he has the look ol a reckless Armenian bandit, be cause he is a man of colorful personality, Mikoyan's visit arous ed much more attention than that of Koziov. Koziov is a man without color, and Ihe United States public ig nored him. Both Koziov and Mikoyan were received by representatives of that section of the United States public they are dedicated to destroy: the businessmen and industrialists. These groups treated both polite ly. Tp the Soviets it may have seemed more than politeness perhaps eagerness for the expand ed Soviet-American- trade both talked about so much. . Despite all the talk, Mikoyan's visit produced little slackening of resistance in the United States to Soviet-American trade. Khrush chev will remember this if Koz lov brings glowing reports of the possibilities of doing business with certain section of American capitalism. Koziov could not hide that he was impressed by what he saw in the United States. He saw vast networks of .good roads. He saw humming industry. He saw mass housing and abundance of goods on a scale which can only be a dream for the Soviet Union for many years to come. He spoke little about these things. But the other Soviets in his party gave an indication of the Soviet reaction. Some of these insisted that the Soviets were hampered in build ing roads and housing because the Soviet Union is so cold much of the year. Others grudgingly admitted that what they had seen was impressive, but predicted they, too, would have all these things and more before long. Koziov himself, after some ex-' periences which must have been disappointing to him, stopped ask-j ing workers how much they earned and whether they had their own homes or automobiles. Too many were doing altogether too well and only grinned at him when he solemnly wished them "a hap pier life." The Soviets met capi talists by the score, but if they were looking lor the downtrodden proleteriat. they were wholly un successful. U.S. Warned By Expert HONOLULU (AP) Wernher Von Braun. Army missile expert. says the United States "can fall into a dangerous trap" in Ihe missile race with Russia "if we persist in looking back to see how fast the other fellow is running.' "It behooves us to run just as fast as we can and let him worry about keeping pace," Von Braun told a meeting Thursday night ol the Assn. of the United Stales Army, an officer organization. Von Braun said the United States was developing a really big booster rocket larger than "any thing the Russians have shown us." He said he was not so sure the United States was behind the Russians in space technology.
