Dean Manion THE MANION FORUM This year marks the 150th an niversary of Napoleon’s defeat at Waterloo. His British conqueror later declared that the big battle had been won “on the playing fields of Eaton.” This was a tri bute to the quality of courage and patriotism, then developed on the campuses of the ancient arid fam ous English schools. Like others before him and like the Communists now, Napoleon was determined to conquer the world, but thanks to the spirit generated on the “playing fields of Eton” his ambitions were frus trated. When and where will the Com- munits meet their Waterloo? Does the current news from American colleges encourage you to believe that what it will take to beat the Communists is being developed here in our own college campuses today. In a recent edition of The Sat urday Evening Post this opening sentence is the lead-in to a story about radical groups on college campuses: “Swarms of young peo ple on college campuses and in cities across the nation are join ing new radical groups. Some are almost peaceful; others are so militant that even the American Communist Party deplores and disowns them. Their hero is Fidel Castro. Their program is protest. They joy in tangling with the po lice.” Patriotism ? Courage ? The playing fields of Eaton were never like this. These young people are not playing, t^ey are working like beavers. Any attempt to laugh this radical rough age out of the record as “youthful exuberance” is sheer self-delusion. These young people know where they are going and they proceed under expert guid ance. One of their most influen tial leaders predicts “ a Socialist” revolution in America within the near future. One of the ways to stop this criminal clamor on the campus is public recognition of its sub versive origins, its seditious sus tenance, and its treasonable pur poses. The Communist conquest of mankind does not advance by old- fashioned military attacks but by ulterior penetration and subver sion. The effectiveness of this devious technique is written across all the paths that the conquering conquests has made through East ern Europe, Asia and Latin Am erica. The Communists took Czechos lovakia with Chechs, Poland ' with Poles, Roumania with Rouman ians, Cuba with Cubans, and China with Chinese. The Communist con quest of the world will be com plete if they succeed in thei r plan to take America with Americans: So far, nobody has devised a way to develop a business with out somebody putting in hard work.

Looking A head ... by Dr. George S. Benson PRESIDENT—NATIONAL EDUCATION PROGRAM Searcy, Arkansas A CASE OF CLEVER POLITICS Again we have had a demon stration of the fact that Ameri cans (and most certainly our national leaders) have a weakness for the supposed underdog. For two decades the Congress regu larly rejected general federal aid to education—until somehow it was slipped in under the guise of the poverty program. This seems the have resulted from a wild stretch of imagination (based on a premise that poverty is based on lack of education), the object of which was to make aid acceptable to a nation which clearly has not wanted it during 20 years of Con gressional debate. The irony of it all is that what ever need was cited earlier is now no longer present. Our “war baby” enrollment boom is leveling off. The school age population, after almost doubling itself after the war, is predicted to grow only 15 per cent in the ntxt decade. The lower grades may show a decline. But the eminent success of local and state governments in provid ing for the postwar school growth left aid proponents little argu ment. The- projected doubling of expenditures that in 1946 was supposed to require federal aid was handled very nicely by the states. Actually, they achieved a seven-fold expansion, without federal aid! The Scheme Worked The educational picture all up and down the line reveals expan sion through local initiative. Vast improvements were recorded in teacher training, in salaries, in student-teacher ratios. In facili ties, local authorities have been building 70,000 classrooms, a year, for above the federally proposed goal of 60,000. But all the facts and figures meant little to the advocates of federal aid. They had been clamoring for aid for years and they now had the votes to put it over. Why bother, they said, to hear all the arguments all over again. The Congressman who is not in a habit of voting federal money to the underdog is hard to find today, it seems. But it was the National Educa tion Association that cooked up the idea of hitching the bill to the poverty war. Their idea, of course, was to keep the federal aid idea alive and push a more general program at the next opportunity. The President had told them he was on their side until every teacher got his due and no over crowded classrooms exist. If the next Congress is as receptive to Presidential dictum,, we may ex pect the program to be broadened for the rich and poor alike. The NEA knows that it will be no trick at all to broaden the aid idea in future years. Federal projects go that way. Effective Steamroller •Besides, what politician can re sist helping public education? What Congressman can succeed without the teachers and the sup port of their organizations ? There’s no denying the power of big lobbying for good causes, even if bad methods and unwise legis lation are proposed. When money is to be handed out, the home dis trict comes first. This bill is re quired to funnel funds into 94 per cent of the nation’s counties. Some of the most distressing needs in education, existing both in big cities and the poorer states, will get only token attention from the bill. News reports during the pro gress of the bill through Congres showed the steam roller in oper ation. Even in committee, debate was virtually eliminated as Rep. Adam Clayton Powell rubber- stamped the bill and rammed it through. The Congress again crowned itself with no laurels for being a democratic, deliberative body. The result was a bad bill, so faulty and so full of loopholes that a 6th grader could point them out The double talk will be inter preted largely as allowing the Commissioner to dispose of the $1.34 billion about as he pleases. No Control? The broad inclusiveness of the bill’s language has impressed its critics, but its backers gloat at this. The “or others,” the “ else- wheres,” and the Commissioner’s choices are notable for their fre quency. Opportunities for federal discretion and rulings of conven ience are abundant. Recipients may find it easy to do what they please with the federal money, and they are thought to look upon the bill largely as extra money for school districts. Either this is chaos on the face of it, or it will create a fully centralized, federal school bureaucracy. This last is apparently what the NEA wants. This unfortunate business, there fore, represents the definite be ginning of a federal educational system. And all of this is going to be done without any federal control. The bill itself says so!
