formed.

search push should be in the
field of mental health, and it
may have been this that mott
waited Steve (and his wife, Jayne)
to work out series that would
acquaint the public with at least
one phase of this tremendous
problem.
I could be wrong-the reac-
ton at WRC-4 here was enthu-
siastic after the show. with the
exception of one person who
called in his objection to a re-
mark about suicide" Allen ex-
planned that people with prob
lens similar to that of the
young lady whose story was be-
ing dramatized might turn to
suicide as way out. The caller
was fearful of the effect this
might have on teen ayers who
might be watching.
Steve Allen reported an ex-
cellent reception in New York,
too, with a number of medical
men phoning in their approval
of the manner in which the sub
ject was handled.
My feeling is that the series,
unless prepared and written by
top dramatists with expert guild
ance. simply won't hold up on
a weekly basis. AS a one-time
show-flne. An hour might be
even better.
But the story presented Tues
day was simply too pat. The
girls problem seemed elementary
especially after the scene with
her parents. And we had to sit
and wait for the psychiatrict to
come to a conclusion that was
obvious almost at the outset.
After all, how many ways can
a patient be photographed on a
psychiatrist's couch? And isn't
this phase of the probing already
sufficiently publicized?

The AMERICAN WAY
Schools Are Local Problem

ocn0OfS are Local Problem
Year after year, those forces
that are breaking their necks to
socialiZe and then sovietize
American, renew their efforts to
have Federal Government ex-
tend federal aid to education in
the various states. So far Con-
gress has always turned deaf
ear but now, strange as it may
seem Republican in the White
House Is lending encouragement
To their demand for Federal Gov
ernment to stick its messy nose
into an affair that distinctly be-
longs exclusively to the in
dividual states.
The Tampa Morning Tribune
of July 8 carried an editorial en-
titled, ''Adlai and Ike Are Both
Wrong" II briefly and most aptly
stated the case against Federal
Aid to Education. From here on
4 quote this Tampa editors
words of wisdom on this impor-
tant issue:
Adlai Stevenson, who seems to
be doing his road work for 1856,
made a speech at Chicago this
week on the Eisenhower pro-
gram for federal aid to the
schools. He doesn't think much
of it.
We don't think much of it.

TeaS1lfY ------'''-'-- --'' -'-
Mr.. Stevenson says the pro-
gram doesn't go nearly far en-
ough. We say it goes entirely too
far.
The Eisenhower school plan is
a conglomerate package which
has succeeded in pleasing almost
nobody. 1t would provide 66 mil
lions a year in direct handouts
for school buildings in areas of
proven need; and it would set
UP a federal agency to buy up
school bonds of states which had
trouble selling them at a fair
price on the open market.
Congress already has buried
the Presidents proposal. In its
place, the Democratic leadership
wants to pass bill providing
400 millions a year for the next
four years in construction funds
to be matched by the states.
Mr.. Stevenson, not surprising
ly, thinks this is fine plan
although he indicated even this
is not enough to meet the zap
palling" need.
Nobody questions the need for
more school buildings to house
the nations multiplying swarm
of pupils. But we question, most
emphatically, the need for the
Federal Government to assume
responsibility for building local
schools.

Side Issues

Side Issues
Characteristic of lawmaking is
the frequency with which side
issues subordinate matters
overshadow the main issue in
publicity and contest. Often,
these questions can assume such
Importance that they obscure
the real issues. This has occur
RED IN several notable instances
within recent weeks.
Recently, the Senate was con-
sidering a worthwhile measure
to liberalize postage rates for
educational material, bene-
flclal and non-controversial piece
OF legislation. Somehow, an
amendment was included deal
ing with the computation of
revenues for fourth-class postage.
Suddenly, there was open war
fare between mail order houses
on one side and public carriers
on the other-a feature which
had nothing at all to do with the
issue at hand.
The proposed Federal Aid for
Highways bill has also provoked
controversy, both political and
from the point of view of cost.
But those issues have. been over
shadoWed by a violent debate
over proposal to compensate
public utilities for one-half the
expenses involved in relocating
their lines when highway plan
ming requires the lines to be
moved. Since it is pretty we'll
established that patrons absorb
increased costs to utilities, the
questions Congress will answer
is whether the cost of moving
the lines will be borne by the
taxpayers generally, or by the
subscribers and patrons of
utilities in the form of increased
monthly charges.
The Wind-Up
Like the jennings in their
annual rush toward the sea, the
leadership in Congress has ex-
pressed its determination to
close the doors by August l..
When those doors close, many
important legislative items will
still be labeled unfinished busi-
ness. AS the pace increases now,
the Rules Committees and the
leadership are selecting the items
which will be considered and
those which the rush toward
adjournment will not allow. Ger
tainly, among the issues which
will be considered, are the high
way bill, public housing, and the
minimum wage bill. Left un-
finished will be such measures
as the increase of postage rates,
