OF Louisiana and California are
we'll educated-from oil-when
their brothers and sisters from
Alabama and Oregon are not
equally educated. only because
they were not lucky enough to
be born adjacent to the oil that
belongs to the United States.
I'm this era of migration from
State to State there is no point
in any particular State trying
to make itself an insulated is
land concerned only with the
education of the children who
live within its borders at a given
moment. Many citizens of Texas
today received their education in
other States, at the expense of
taxpayers in other States. The
huge influx into California is of
people educated at the expense
of and according to the stand
ards of other States. And when
Louisiana oil and gas begin to
hum in the Texas manner,
Louisiana will also become a
migrants eldorado."
The Senator appealed to the
big oil companies. who have
heretofore favored State owner
ship in the belief they could
make better leasing terms with
the States. His proposal. he sug-
gested, might offer insurance to
the companies against the
American people ever taking the
attitude toward oil that has been
taken In Iran.

Lowell MeHett:
Oil for the Lamp Of Learning
Group of Senators Would Dedicate RoyoIte:
From Tideond Oil to Aid of Public Schools

The IL Senators would have the
remaining 62l2 per cent set
aside for national defense now
and. when the present emerg-
ency ends, for aid to education
in all the States. The three
States would thus still get the
major benefit, but the other IS
States would benefit greatly.
In Offering the amendment,
Senator Hill made an eloquent
speech. 1t was lost in the hula
baloo Of the Macarthur hear
ings.
Every sector of American
education" he said, has its
back to the wall. Our school
buildings are overcrowded. The
grammar schools in the next
four years will receive the larg-
est number of children In our
history. Our postwar babies
have come of age-school age.
This tidal wave of six-year-olds
will soon inundate the rickety
structure Of primary education,
tottering under its present load.
Every State in the Union needs
grammar school teachers and
grammar school buildings. The
same thing is true of our high
schools"
Also:
I'VE must not lose this op-
portunity. There is enough to
go around if we use our assets
wisely. It will do this Nation

q fact-f1nding mission to For
mosa was expressed less than six
weeks before the British govern
ment formally recognized the
Communist regime In Peiping.
There were strong rumors then
that the United States Govern
ment would follow suit as soon
as the American people could be
sufficiently educated to ac-
cept such action.
The Secretary Of State and
his advisers reversed themselves
somewhat within "a hours after
the Korean Communists at
tackled South Korea. But this
reversal was limited. For "po-
litical" reasons the co-opera-
ton of some $4,000 Nationalist
combat troops was rejected.
Gen. Omar Bradley testified
earlier that he conveyed to Gen.
Macarthur the State Depart
ment's suggestion that he him
self reject Chang Kai-shek's
offer. Inspired newspaper
and radio commentators widely
exploited the incident Of Gen.
MacArthur's kissing Nine.
Chiang's hand when he visited
the temporary Nationalist cap
ital last July.
It appears that there is moth
ing wrong in following the Eu-
ropean custom. on occasion, of
kissing a lady's gloved hand.
But when that hand belongs
to the wife of the Chinese Ma
tionalist leader it becomes a
matter of high policy and an
object of severe criticism.
Mr.. johnson also involuntar-
lily cast some doubt on the
strategic concepts of the Army
Chief of Staff, Gen. j. Lawton
Collins. He revealed the hith-
erto undisclosed fact that Gen.
Macarthur carried out the "au-
dacious and successful" landing
behind the enemy lines at In
chon over the objections Of the
Chief Of Staff. who went to Ja-
pan in an attempt to dissuade
Gen. Macarthur from such ac-
ton. Gen. Macarthur stood
pat and was supported by Mr..

Taking up where John Quincy
Adams and Abraham Lincoln
left off, Senator Lister Hill and
ten of his colleagues are seeking
further dedication of the pub
lie land to the needs of public
education. Adams far sighted
proposal, rejected for many
years. became the basis of our
present system of land grant
colleges during Lincoln's term.
The eleven Senators would ap-
ply Adams philosophy and
craftsmanship to the public
land that lies beneath the water
off the shores of the big oil
producing States, California,
Texas and Louisiana.
The United States Supreme
Court has ruled that this land
is the property of the United
States. not of the individual
States. The three States are
seeking legislation by Congress
to upset the courts decision.
President Truman has vetoed
one such bill. At stake is not
merely question of States
rights versus Federal authority,
but deposits of oil estimated by
the Geological Survey to be
worth $40 billion.
A resolution now in Senate
committee would give to each
of the oil States 371a per cent
of all royalties and other money
collected from the drilling COM
panies operating off its coast.
