comes, will be federal control of schools eventually, whether the author of the bill wants it or not Whoever signs the checks can compel obedience to orders, even from teachers. Obviously most public school systems need, not federal support, but better state support. There are at least six good reasons. Three are plain and practical, the others basic.
 CD Federal control would cost taxpayers more for the same re- suits than state control; an extra handling charge @ Federal con trol of schools would make one more huge bureau with an army of henchmen in a maze of pyra- miding salaries. t3 Federal con trol will ride down traditions. How the South will fester at the first successful effort to seat white and colored children together at school It might easily result in widespread violence.
 Wrong in Principle
 The foregoing objections are practical ones. But it is wrong in principle to rob parents of their influence in public schools. (4 Concentrating school funds in the hands of far-away strangers is saying to all parents, Hands off school" (5) It is also fruitful of racketeering 6) Worse yet, it vio- lates the principle of state sov- ereignty which is the backbone of American freedom.
 Any time rich Washington sets up a w. P. A. for teachers, local school revenue will start drying up. Soon the U. S. Treasury will be footing all bills and that sug- gested 200 million dollars a year increase in pay for teachers will not be a drop in the bucket In many states teachers need and de- serve more pay. If it comes the people will pay it and they'd bet ter handle it locally. A local so- luton to the problem is possible anywhere.

LOOKING AMAD
Federal Aid
~ GEORGE $. BENSON \ Asfsfdsxf,Kanszxg college ' &eancE HskGNSSs

Federal Aid
 School teachers are influential people, They choose their call ing as a rule because they love children, and love influences chil- dren. Youngsters, in turn, control their homes and parents more than they realize; in ways they don't know about. Thus good teacher is power in the com munity. Any politician could cut quite splash if only he could line up all the teachers behind him.
 The idea is not new. Starts are made in that direction often. Plans to halter the public schools of America in a bureaucratic tread mill have come before Congress four times since 1887. They have failed every time but each new attempt shows more strength. The most recent one, discussed in this column exactly a year ago, gained enough momentum to get talked about from Bangor to Burbank. Maybe Nine Lives
 This latest sally on the public school system was led by Senator Lister Hill of Alabama, helping Senator Ebert D. Thomas of Utah. The bill, IS. 367 as fin ally rejected by the 78th Con- gress, is dead but the senators ambitions can still wiggle. Hill is campaign now for reelection on a platform of federal aid to edu- cation", and that's been a hobby of Thomas for long time.
 The issue will be revived. Poli- tical problems have way of coming to life repeatedly until they are cured, and this one is not cured.
 Teachers have a right to earn as much in the classroom as they might get for manual labor in factory and, untrl teachers pay is adjusted, state school author ities will have their troubles born of somebody's mistakes; maybe their own.
