Studebaker, PuIIen
Join in Endorsement
'0fU. 5. Aid 10 Schools

Commissioner of Education John
w. Studebaker today was joined by
Maryland School Supt. Thomas c.
Pullen in indorsing the principle
of Federal grants -in-aid to the
States for education.
They spoke at the opening session
of the Southern Regional Confer
ence of the Council of State Gov
ernments in, the Mayfiower Hotel.
Of the proposal to give the States
such assistance, DIR. Studebaker said !:
Il think it can be done without
imposing the will and the Judgment
of the Federal Governmental Fed
eraf bureaucrats-on the States.
Suggests Federal Floor"
He outlined provisions of several
bills pending in Congress without
giving support to any specific mea-
sure. He suggested the best means
of allotting funds would be one
in which floor" OF education
would be guaranteed through the
Federal grants, and the States
then would be left free to improve
their systems above that level as
they chose,
L certainly would hate to see a
thorough liberalization of educa-
ton in order to achieve equalization
of educational opportunity" DR.
Studebaker commented.
He said one of the issues of the
proposed assistance was whether 1t
should include aid to private
schools. If this question were
resolved in favor of giving money
to private institutions, he said, it
would not be without precedent,
since the Federal Government has
been paying large sums to nom
public schools under the GI Bill
of Rights. the school lunch program
and other measures.
DR.. Pullen told the conference any
grant -in-aid plan should not in
clude any conditions or restrictions
which would give the Federal Gov
ernnent an administrative hand i'll
State school systems.
Tax Problems on Agenda.
The question OF payments to pr1-
vate schools should be decided by
Congress in an enactment apart
from that establishing the grants,
DR.. Pullen declared. He said the
matter should not be referred back
TO the States to be fought out there" :"
If it's right for the Federal Gov
ernment to give aid to nonpubiic
schools in one State, its right to
give it III ALL" he said.
State tax and fiscal problems
were to be considered by the con-
ference this afternoon.
The two-day meeting will be con-
Guided tomorrow with a considera-
ton of aviation, water resources and
fire prevention Federal Works Ad-
ministrator Philip B. Fleming, chair
main OF the Presidents Fire Pre-
vention Conference, will be among
the speakers.

The result OF the observations
however, was surprising. Some
highs formed In the Arctic, accord
ing to theory. but great many
of them were found drifting into

Siberia which now appears to be

masses.
Coolest Place in World.
First, it is the coldest place In
| the world. The Arctic basin is quite
warm in comparison for small
amount of the heat held in sea

ice Secondly, it is a region of stag
nant circulation, while the Arctic
area itself is almost the reverse.
| When a high" reaches a certain
critical size, depending largely or
conditions at the time, great chunks
break off-much as icebergs break
off the shelf of the Antarctic con-
tinent. These may be as much as
1000 miles in diameter The ma
jority of them are thrown off the
east coast of Siberia-due to the
general west-east circulation of the
atmosphere-and drift southwark
between Japan and Korea to cause
the great winter storms of that
region.
Some, however, are DETECTED

Thus, it is explained, the Arctic

ITO the best OF my knowledge
no charges OF graft, crookedness
corruption or other skullduggery
have been brought against GSI,
Gen. Fleming declared There have
been accusations which maybe said
to amount to allegations of mistakes
in Judgment, most of them, it seems
to me. OF a rather trifiing nature
That some mistakes may have beer
made during the hectic war period
from which we are still emerging
is certainly understandable. Who
during the war years, didn't make
some mistakes?"
Gen. Fleming said the only al
tentative is for the Government to
go into the cafeteria business. But
he said he did not think it would
be nearly as efficient as GSI opera
tion.
Fears Confusion, Inefficiency.
For my part, ! don't want to &c
back to eating out of a paper bag
nor do / want to see anybody else
have to do it," he said. Nor do ]
want to see a return to the con-
fusion and inefficiency that char
acterized previous attempts to OPP
crate the cafeterias."

vide its net profits with the Gov

Baldwin continued, lis account
ability-the methods of control. Is
GSI sure there has been an equit-
able division of profits?"
Gen. Grant then continued with

Business Continues
To Expand in Fifth
Reserve District
By Edword G. Stone

Two months of 1947 have elapsed
and business in the Fifth District
is still showing rising trend, ac-
cording to the Federal Reserve Bank
of Richmond's monthly review is
sued yesterday.
The suptrend is particularly
marked in some lines of wholesale
trade, though wholesale dry goods,
drugs and grocery sales did not
share in this expansion.
Only in wholesale dry goods was
the setback material, this probably
being due to widespread January
clearance sales and hesitancy on
the part of retailers to recorder,
the bank said.
AS inventories in department
stores and other lines have risen,
bank loans have continued a strong
upward trend. Demand deposits
decreased while savings deposits ad-
vanced, the review stated.
Easter Trade Boosts Sales.
Partly due to the earlier Easter
this year, department store sales in
the Capital for the week ended
Saturday, March Is. were u per
cent ahead of the corresponding pc
riod a year ago, the Richmond Re-
serve Bank reported yesterday.

Bonds Turn
Upward in Week
After Long Drop
BY the Associoted Press

NEW YORK, Mar. 22.-Railroad
issues broke a six-week losing streak
in the bond market this week.
Modest demand in today's short
session was sufficient to lift rail
prices, on the average, out of the
long slump that carried the group
to a l947 low last week.
Gains ranged from fractions to
an outside of around 2 points, with
the majority posted for the lower
priced carriers. Traders appeared
impressed with the ease with which
quotations responded to small buy
ing orders and many expressed the
belief investors might show more
aggressive interest if some of the
question marks were taken out of
the International and domestic
business news.
Among the gamers were Central
of New Jersey SIS of 81 at Al, top
for the year on 21a-point gain,
Denver & Rio Grande Western new
income 41as, when issued, up u at
58s4, Southwestern SIS at $685., Sea-
board Airline incomes at 70, and

31as jumped 334 to so and more
than recovered the sharp loss which
followed announcement on Thurs
day that the next interest payment
due on the issue would be skipped.
Sales totaled $3.50, 900 compared
with $1,179,000 q week ago.
Investment circles had a number
Of news developments to consider in
the new financing field, most Of
which were rated favorably.
Consolidated Edison Co. of New
York marketed $100,00O,000 of re-
funding bonds through an invest
ment syndicate headed by Morgan,
Stanley & Co. The issue, due in
1862 and carrying az per cent
coupon, was priced at 1925 per cent
to yield 2625 per cent.
The quick sellout of the Edison
issue, many bond dealers said, was a
desirable prelude to the American

Associa ton, began making the
rounds of style designers today as a
first step toward forming Cali
fornia Paris fashion axis that will

Paris doesn't compete with us, -

California clothes and California
models to Paris to put on show

The choice item will be Esther
Williams, film actress. She and

Mr.. Schuman gave the Paris
couturiers assurance that he wasn't
bringing his models to Paris to sell
California clothes to Parisians. He
said he wanted French fabric and
ornament manufacturers to see the
kind Of clothing the Californians
are designing so they will make
goods to suit the American taste,
