West Memphis, Ark, to send
power into the iva system in

The resolution approved today
declares that "the Atomic Energy
Commission presented no sub
stantial or compelling reasons to
justify the adoption Of a waiver
resolution while Congress was
not in session" and questions the
legality of this step.
Hearings Called Inadequate.
It argues also that hearings at
the time were inadequate" and
adds that the Joint Committee
action tended to deprive the
Saith Congress of its full opportu-

action" regarding the contract.
In calling for cancellation, the

MODERN MARRIAGE
Indifference
To Common
Welfare
BY DIR. PAUL POPENOE


Children who do not learn,
In their own homes. the bal
ance between privileges and

grow up self-centered and
lacking in some of the quail
ties necessary to a self-gov-
erning people. Children in the
United States too often con-
Germ themselves with their
rights rather than their duties,
and citizenship suffers. This
feeling Of indifference to the
common welfare has been strik-
ingly illustrated in the past by
studies Of high school gradu-
ates. Two Harvard psychol-
ogists now emphasize 1t in a
