Military Double Standard
Senator Henry M. Jackson, of Washington, writing in the
June 1969, issue of Reader’s Digest makes some interesting
observations on our relations with the Soviet Union.
The article details some of the myths involved in our re
lations with the Kremlin, but the most intersting of all is the
arms race. Sen. Jackson, by virtue of membership on the
key Armed Services Committee, is well versed in the de
ployment of both our own military forces and those of Russia
He makes the point that the more vocal apponents of the
Nixon proposal for an ABM Safeguard system are operating
under a double standard. The senator writes: “I have never
beard one of these critics say that in deploying its ABM system
some years ago the Soviets were ‘escalating the arms race.’
There is a clear double standard here, and I am confident that
the American people, once they have the facts, will recognize
it as a standard that is crudely biased against our own country.”
The senator offers in evidence the following:
“The Soviet Union acted first to develop ICBMs.
“The Soviet Union has developed and tested a 60-megaton
bomb; it is the only nation to possess a terror weapon of any
thing like that size.
“The Soviet Union is the only nation to have built and in
stalled ICBMs of the SS-9 size and to be testing multiple war
beads on it.
“The Soviet Union has developed and tested a Fractional
Orbital Bombardment System (FOBS), a first-strike-oriented
weapon; it is the only nation to have available such an orbital
weapon.
“The Soviet Union — in 1962 — test fired an anti-ballistic
missile (ABM) against an incoming nuclear-armed missile; it
is the only nation to have conducted such a test.
“The Soviet Union acted first to deploy ABMs, is installing
more than 60 ABM launchers, and is testing an improved model
—whereas the United States has not yet deployed ABMs of any
kind.”
Sen. Jackson is a Democrat who places his natiai’s security
above partisanship. His arguments appear to be substantial.
It might serve the cause of national defense if all of the critics
of the Safeguard ABM system and the constant apoligists for
the Soviet Union would take the few minutes necessary to
read the senator’s remarks. They might well learn something.

In answer to a question on
scholarships, Saito said the
college granted 40 to in-state
students, with one half of these
going to girls. These, he said,
were merit awards based partly
on needs, and were not given in
any particular department. That
athletic
scholarships were
treated in the same manner as
music or any others.
ATHLETIC
PROGRAM
“How much of taxpayers
money is spent for athletic
coaches?”
“NONE,”
was
President Skinner’s reply. He
further stated, “Student fees,
gate receipts, and concessions
take care of the entire program
and returns a profit of about
$15,000. This becomes a part
of the general funds and maybe
used for many things."
POBANZ VIEWS DIFFER
CREDIT TRANSFER
“Why can’t credits be trans
ferred from TVCC toothercol-
leges?”
Dean Ed Haynes, told the in
quirer that vocation - technical
courses are designed for two
years completion and that it was
true some colleges would not
accept these. The same was
true, he said, of pre-law, pre
med and architecture.
But, liberal arts college
credits, were acceptable to any
college or university in the
Northwest states.
OTHER QUESTIONS
Other questions came on the
college renting housing, feeding
the students and operation of the
dorms. Dean Murray reported
the damage to dorms had been
exaggerated and that the $35
deposit required of each student
had taken care of all damages.
The food and housing services
were self-supporting, he said,
and should soon start showing
profit.
The effect of a new college
in Baker was thought to be mini
mum by Skinner due to tui
tion fees of $900-$l,000 per
student, that it was a specialized
school, not accredited, with
students drawn from a wide
area.
Joe Saito toldJake Fischer he
did not know why a TVCC base
ball game was played on the
Payette diamond instead of
Nyssa where some of the tax
payers lived, “but, he replied,
it sure won’t happen again —
at least not before the next
election.”
It appears to me that this
community is basically proud
of TVCC, and that the recent
vote was not primarily against
the budget.
“I believe, from my own con-
verstions, that there are nine
or ten items to be considered
as important in the community
thinking. The board cannot do
much, or anything, about some
of these, such as taxation gen
erally, certain inevitable ex
penditures, the complexion of
the student population, and the
geographic sources of students.
“However, the board does
have the power to accept the re
signations of four or five ad
ministrators found objection
able by the community; it does
have the power to encourage
better public relations efforts
by college personnel;
“It does have the power to
alter the budget though it has
seemed sound; it does have the
power to modify the emphasis
on athletics; and it probably
can exert larger influence on
salary levels.”
The United Methodist Church
of Nyssa will sponsor a “youth
night”
every
Thursday,
8-11 p.m. throughout the sum
mer according to the Rev. J. D.
Crego, Pastor.
The Fellowship Hall of the
church will be open to all the
youth of the town those even
ings with a pop dispensing ma
chine, shuffle board, ping pong,
back ground music (bring your
favorite records). The activity
has been named “The Back
Door”, and will feature shuffle
board, ping pong, and conver
sation! So far there are only
two rules. 1- After a youth lea
ves, he or she is not to re
turn the same evening. 2- Be
have as ladies and gentlemen.
If anyone has a card table to
lend or to donate to the “cause”
please call Annie Crego at 372-
3170.
Opening night will be tonight,
June 12.
All high schoolers
are invited to bring their "Tu
pelos” for autographing at this
time.
PERSONAL
Memorial day visitors in the
J. Elwood Flinders home were
Mr. and Mrs. Arvel L. Child
and son, Gary and Scotto Boyce
of Quincy, Wash. Mr. and Mrs.
Spencer Beus and five children
flew in by private plane from
Hyder, Ariz. They also visi
ted other friends in the area.
May 31 visitors in the Flinders
home were their nephew, Mr.
and Mrs. Lynn Child, formerly
of Nyssa. They were on their
way to Los Angeles where he
will be employed. Dick John
son of Denver, Colo., arrived
May 31 to join his wife, Gail
and daughter, Kristin, who had
been visiting her parents, the
Flinders and other relatives for
the past two weeks.
Following the reading of the
statement, Pobanz received a
mild round of applause from the
crowd, the first such reaction
during the night.
Chairman Saito made no com
ment, or asked for any, follow
ing Pobanz’ reading of the
statement.
It is now 10:30p.m., the mee
ting has been in session for two
and one-half hours, and there
being no more questions, it is
adjourned.
Some thirty minutes later the
board went into session lasting
until 2:30 the following morn
ing and came up with another
budget for submittal to the vo
ters June 24.
A brief sum
mary of it is covered in an
other story in this issue of the
Journal.

equivalent full-time students,
but that they anticipated 950-
1025, and in this manner they
hoped to take care of part of the
deficit.
John Fowler, CPA, who au
dits the college records, said
the college was operating on a
current basis and that this was
the first year that the board
and administration had full con
trol of finances and knew what
was in all funds and what had
been spent at all times. He
affirmed that the only outstand
ing indebtedness, other than
bonds voted by the electorate,
was the two months salary bill
for July and August in the
amount of $89,000.
We, the Treasure Valley
Community College Faculty As
sociation, having a genuine con
cern for the continuing im
provement

educational
opportunity, believe that:
Since the Business Office
procedures
are
the most
orderly and efficient that Trea
sure Valley Community College
has had since its beginning;
And since the current budget
is a conscientiously and real
istically drawn budget, in that
each department was consulted
as to specific needs and asked
to submit minimum requests,
nearly all of which were fur
ther reduced in the interest of
presenting to the public the
lowest possible budget:
And since the intent of the
present administration and fac
ulty is to work for the better
ment of the college as a whole
and to develop academic levels
and technical skills with the
welfare of the student as their
chief consideration;
Therefore be it resolved that
we support the administration
and passage of the budget as
presented for the coming elec
tion.
Millikin, speaking for the
summer
faculty members,
asked the board not to delay
summer school which is sche
duled to start on June 22, two
days before the election. Milli
kin said that the instructors
would teach, “on the come,”
meaning without pay if neces
sary if the budget doesn’t pass.
He said that about 400 students
were ready to start summer
school and it would not be fair
to them to delay or discontinue
the summer session.
