Special Dispatch to me star

TUCSON, Ariz., Oct. 22-Mrs.
Agnes E. Meyer Of Washington
yesterday accused the Republic
can administration of rigging
the White House Conference on
Education, scheduled next
month, and said the whole Ma
Ition should SHOW its resentment
lof this authoritarianism which
threatens all we have hitherto
cherished as our highest ideals. "
Speaking before the Statewide
convention of the Arizona Edu-
cation Association, Mrs. Meyer,
identifying herself as a Republic
lcan. said those who control the
party have never developed a
social conscience because they
have never had any use for such
10 bothersome faculty"
Mrs. Meyer. wife Of Eugene
Meyer, board chairman Of the
Washington Post and Times
Herald. said President Eisen-
hover should be exonerated from
these charges, because he had
tried valiantly to defend human
rights at home and abroad.
Sees Budget Considerations
| She said the Republicans were
determined to balance the
budget even II they have To
Iachieve it by ignoring the hui
Imane considerations that consti-
ltute the basic rights Of every
Icitizen."
4 Mrs. Meyer charged that even
the President had been sucked
into a vacuum of administrative
policy in which the Budget Blu
Ireau had dominated against his
wishes for Federal aid for public
schools.
1 Deploring the administrator
failure to provide adequate class.
rooms because of a ''pnony
States rights philosophy" Mrs,
Meyer said administration lead
ers had decided heat could be
taken Of by calling the White
House Conference on Education.
Agreeing with one writer that
the conference is q "grandstand
play" Mrs. Meyer said it actu-
