Citizens Committee Issues
Critical School Summary
SACRAMENTO (UPI) A citi-
tens commission advising the Leg
islature on the public schools will
meet here Jan. 15 and 16 to con
sider a hard-hitting report on ccn
tralizcd control of education.
The report, somewhat vaguely
worded in its suggestions for
tightening local control, was sub
milled here Saturday by a sub
committee nf the Citizens Advisory
Commission on the Public Educa
tion System.
Another warning on the "all
powerful and machine - like com
bination" of state control came
lrom Arcadia manufacturer For
dyce V. Cowing, who announced
his resignation as chairman
because of business obligations.
The commission elected Dr. Wil
liam V. Lawlor, LaCanada dentist,
to succeed Cowing. Mrs. Barbara

Solons To Get
Law Request
WASHINGTON (UPD-The ad
ministration plans to ask Con
gress next month to lighten the
law governing tbo use of chemi
cals in food processing.
Arthur S. Flcmniing, secretary
of health, education and welfare,
said Sunday he would urge that
the law be revised to make it
easier to ban all use of chemi
cals found to cause cancer in ani
mals. Ho. predicted that Congress
Would approve the change.
Flcmniing explained that the
present law authorizes his depart
ment to deny the request of a
good producer asking for permis
sion to use a certain substance
If it has been found to be cancer-producing.
But he said the law requires
the government to prove the
chemical is cancer-producing in
the case of food processors who
previously had received permis
sion to use the substance.
This distinction "doesn't make
sense," Flcmniing said. He said
it wasn't fair for one food proces
sor to be allowed to use a chemi
cal denied to oilier segments of
the industry."
teacher, was chosen to replace
Lawlor as chairman of a subcom
mittee on curricula and teacber
training.
The "stale control" report said
(hat centralization of the schools
has been "a gradual and at limes
imperceptible eroding process."
Five specific complaints were
cited:
The Legislature has almost
completely controlled the power of
the local boards to determine the
curriculum.
By the policy of a single ex
clusive adaption of textbooks, the
scope and breadth of the subject
matter taught are controlled to a
large degree.
Through teacher guides, the
Department of Education has '
tended to and has in fact had an
impact upon the basic educational
practices of teachers.
The Board of Education, be
cause of its control over the
teacher - training state colleges
exercises "a substantial influence"
upon the philosophy and ability
of the classroom teacher.
The Department of Education
"attempts to exercise control in
such matters as the location of
schools, tho size of school sites,
and to influence the type of build
ings to be constructed."
In this connection, the report
said "evidence has been present
etl to us that where the authority
to impost such controls has been
questioned, coercive tactics and
threats. . , have been used."
The subcommittee report urged
egislation "returning to the local
districts all powers over the eaU
cational policy of the district, ex
cept those which are absolutely
essential to insure the legitimate
interests of the slate m connec
tion with state assistance."
Commissioner Joseph Genser,
Richmond, asked that the suggest
ed legislation be made more spe
cific. William M. Bucknam, Ceres,
said he wanted further indication
if the facts on which the report
was based.

Ike Promised
Smooth Trip
ATHENS (AP) - Preisdent
Eisenhower will run little risk of
either sunburn or seasickness
when he boards the cruiser Des
Moines Tuesday for a sail to
Tunisia and France.
The weather probably won't be
good. But the heai'y cruiser rides
smoothly.
A , 3-day Mediterranean cruise
aboard the sleek, gray flagship of i
the U.S. 6th fleet was scheduled
to give the President a brief rest
at sea between his talKs with gov
ernment leaders and his appear
ance at Ihe Paris Western sum
mit session.
Then it was announced he would
meet Tunisia's President Habib
Hourguiba for talks aboard the
Des Moines. Later the President
decided to spend four hours
ashore in- Tunisia before moving
on to Toulon, France.
The fleet's weather experts say
December is squall time in the
usually sunny Mediterranean. It's
sun loday and slorm tomorrow.
Sunbathing is unlikely. But
ship's ofliccrs say seasickness is
unlikely loo. The 21,000-ton heavy
cruiser rides as smoothly as such
nig liners as me America or met
Constitution.'
When the President boards the
6th Fleet flagship there will be a
21-gun presidential salute, and the
unusual formality of "manning
the rail which the U.S. Navy re
serves for chiefs of stale.
Every fleet unit which the Des
Moines passes from Athens until
the President leaves the ship at
Toulon harbor Friday will render
the same honors.
As Eisenhower boards the
cruiser the three-starred blue flag
of Vice Adm. George W. Ander
son Jr., 6th Fleet commander, will
come down from the mainmast
The President's flag will go up in
its place.
Ike will stay in Adm. Anderson's
quarters. These are comfortable,
but not plush. They compare with
a suite in a first-class hold.
Eisenhower knows Ihe cruiser
He was aboard, at Naples, when
he was commander of NATO's
European forces after the war.
The Des Moines has been host
to other notables, among them
Queen Elizabeth and the Duke of
Edinburgh, King Paul and Queen
Frederika of Greece Prince Al
bert of Belgium, and President
Chamoi'ii of Lebanon.
The Des Moines was commis
sioned at Boston in 1946 and has
served as flagship of the 6th Fleet
for seven of her nine tours of duty
here.

Paper Strike Probe Plan Is Dropped
PORTLAND (AP)-A plan to
urge Secretary of Labor James
Mitchell to appoint a fact-finding
panel to look into the Portland
newspaper strike was dropped
Sunday by Sen. Richard L. Neu
berger (D-Ore).
Neuberger said such a panel
would be pointless because the
management of The Oregonian
and Oregon Journal, Portland's
two daily newspapers, refused to
participate.
"I still retain my basic confi
dence in a fact-finding commis
sion of impartial citizens as a
helptul remedy in such situa
tions," the Senator said.
Stereotypers Union members
struck Nov. 10 at the two news
papers and other union personnel
observed picket lines. There are
no future mediation sessions now
scheduled in the dispute that has
idled 900.
Neuberger Saturday asked Gov.
Mark Hatfield of Oregon to name
a panel of impartial citizens that
would report to the people "on the
actual merits of the, current con
troversy." He said the govern
or declined, he would request
Mitchell to appoint the commis
sion.
Hatfield turned down the re
quest because "it would not ap
pear that management would be
any more willing to sit down with
a citizen body than it was with
the governor. . . ." The union
agreed to a meeting three weeks
Title Red Cross

ago witl. Hatfield that he suggest- casting machine The Oiegoniail
ed, but management declined.
The publishers of the two news
papers said in reply to Neuberg
er' plan that they would not par
ticipate because the controversy
already was in the hands of the
federal Mediation Service. Also,
they added, no useful purpose
would be served.
The statement by management
said it had offered to arbitrate
all unresolved issues before the
strike started and called that an
"offer for genuine fact finding"
which the union rejected.
The Stereotypers Union local
president, Harley Flesvig, had ac
cepted Neuberger's proposal.
Key issues when the strike was
called were the number of men
to be employed on a new metal
proposes to buy, whether foremen
should be required to be union
members and overtime charges
when men who laid off at their
own convenience had to be replaced.
