Book Burning
In California
WASHINGTON (UPI) - ltcp.
Harlan Haeen. D-Calif.. said In.
day there was a possibility thel
U.S. Information Agency might
step in to save thousands of text
books from being burned in Cali
fornia. A Duhlic Olltcrv was raised r.
cently in California when it was
learned outdated but unused text
books were being burned.
Il.icen said he had asked the
USIA to accept about 800.000 of
uio Dooks lor distribution abroad.
"USIA officials advised me that
they are favorably Impressed with
the utility for use abroad of the
samples which California state of
ficials forwarded to Washington,"
Hagcn snid.
Tho Hanford Democrat said one
problem still to be solved was the
estimated $100,000 cost of packing
and shipping the books.
"It has been frequently alleged
that one of the defects of our
foreign policy operation has been
the failure to make available suit
able litcraliiro about America to
people of the uncommitlcd coun
tries," llngen said. "I think this
charge is justified and that these
school books would help remedy
that defect."
