educators agree. at the secondary

1t, to study math and the natural
sciences: Teachers, student coun-
sellers, parents, school administers
tors, private industries which need
good engineers, and the Govern
ment which must guard the ma
tional security.
Teachers
One Of the crying needs is to at
tract enough teachers to man .

gram In secondary schools. Among
college graduates qualified to teach,
only between 35 per cent and so
per cent actually do. Salaries are
so low that qualified teachers can
easily make more In defense plants.
or helping design gadgets. Some
way win have to be found to raise
their salaries. educators say. but
they have no proposals except
whispered suggestions Of Federal
aid.
Universities, for their part. have
shown marked indifference to
the high schools plight. All good
science and math people are
steered away from teaching. no
doubt mainly because OF the low
salary scale.
It is not only the starting salary
which Is low. Chances for adj
vancement are slim. BY contrast.
there are automatic salary increases
Of 10 per cent every five years in

Student CounseIors
High schools too often have In

counselors, appointed to advise pu-
pills on what courses to take and
what plans they should make about
college. Many counselors still adj
wise most Of their students to major
In the social sciences. which are
easier and naturally more attrac-
tive to American youth. Educators
are trying to get the story OF the
engineer shortage through to the
student counselors.
Perents
Educators admit they win need
lots Of help from fathers and
mothers. They say that many
American families have lost their
respect for the disciplined mind.

Then, In succession. the Franks.

Mgious leaders Of these groups and
holding those leaders responsible

Of taxes. Thus the archbishop Of
Cyprus became the ethnarch or
national leader Of the Greek Cyp-
roits.
The British junked the Turkish
system, stripped the church Of It's
authority In civil administration
and sought TO relegate 1t solely to q
spiritual role In the life Of the island.
Now the British royal governor
rules, with his appointed council
Of secretaries. But the archbishop
Is still ethnarch--the national
leader. elected by the people for
life.
AS q resuit-of riots in 1881 which
assumed the stature of>an abortive
revolt caused by the British gov

hibiting the election Of new arch-
bishop and ethnarch following the
death Of Archbishop KyriIlos M In
1882. The church remained with
out q supreme head and the Cyp-
riots without o national leader until
the ban was rescinded In 1947.
The present archbishop. Makarios
III. was elected In 1850, when he
was only 81. The enosis movement
had been at o low ebb two years
earlier. when he assumed his
bishopric. but he revived It. He
propagandized here and aboard. and

their children into mathematics and
science courses In high school.
School Administration
Schools themselves are lax In
providing opportunities for stu
dents to get math and science
training. Half the schools In this
country, educators say. have no
physics courses at all. Boys and
girls with aptitudes In these fields
are deprived Of developing them.
Priyote Industry
The National Education Associa-
ton Is encouraging private indus
tries to hire teachers In the sum-
mer months, to keep them abreast
OF new developments IN their fields.
This has two effects. It gives the
teacher enough money to make
both ends meet and probably helps
him to stay In the teaching pro-
fession. It also arms the teacher
with practical examples of applied
math and science. which he can use
to interest students In these sub
jects.
Private industries are also being
encouraged to provide scholarships
for high school graduates In en-
cheering courses.
But most efforts by private
groups. including professional edu-
cational groups, are handicapped
by lack Of funds. Only. the Gov
eminent has money enough TO
tackle the Job that has to be done.
Government
At present the Federal Govern
ment Is spending $8.l million q year
for grants in support Of basic re-
search and $2,250. 900 on research
fellowships. The National Science
Foundation, whose total budget is
$12.7 million, administers these
funds.
This is all the money the Fed
eral budget provides to help to or
set the growing Soviet chronological
advantage.
Educators are reluctant to discuss
Federal aid even In this vital area
because Of the administrations
opposition to large national sub
sides.
Privately. however. they say that
licking the problem Of giving
Johnny the proper incentive to
study math and science probably
would cost less than 5000 million
a year.
OF course, even with Federal aid
Of 5000 million year. the Ameri-
can disadvantage In qualified en-
gineers would not disappear over
night. It would take q good six
years. from the Junior year In high
school through the four-year coli
lege course, to get the pipeline
filled II by some miracle the pro-
gram could be set In motion Inn
mediately.
Another important method Of in
creasing our chronological resources
would be to achieve closer relations
with our European allies whose
engineer and scientist pools are
small but Of highest quality. Hyper
sensitivity to loose security meas
ures In some European countries has
caused Congress to seal of Ameri-
can technology from It's European
allies. Many Of our top officials
believe this does the United States
much more harm than good.
Meanwhile. Soviet Communist
Party Boss Nikita 8. Khrushchev
put out another blunt warning In
Moscow q week ago yesterday:
I'VE don't have to fight. Let US
have peaceful competition and We
win show you where the truth
Hes Il. victory II oyrs."

veal that Thomas B. Fugate, bank
president at Ewing, near Cumber-
land Gap, was in the forefront Of
the park development movement.
Fugate became enthusiastic over
the possibilities of park in that
area prior to his election as Ninth
District Congressman several years
ago. He followed up this work as
congressman by pressing for the en-
actment of necessary federal legisls-
ton, which was approved. He and
others also strongly supported state
appropriations for land purchases.
Fugate teamed up with DR.. Rob-

thusiastic supporter. Some of the
Virginia land now a part of the
