than So million for the training
Of war veterans to schools which

owned by Communists.
Chairman Mcclellan said that
initially about eight witnesses

concerning four schools. The
executive hearings will be fol-
lowed by public sessions In the
near future.
The Arkansas Democrat has
said only that. the schools are
located in the East. Other
sources reported that the schools
are in New York and Pennsyl-
vania,
Senator Mcclellan said that a
preliminary investigation by the
subcommittee staff indicated
these four schools alone have
received more than So million
from the Government for vet
Grams tuition since l945.
Another source said that a
craft school in New York has
received almost 81 million in CT

Graham Sees
Dulles Before
Flying 70 India
BY the Associated Press

Evangelist Billy Graham said
after a talk with Secretary OF
State Dulles today that he felt
Mr.. Dulles position on Portu-
guese GOA matter Of bitter
controversy with India had
been misinterpreted.
In a joint statement on De-
cember 2 with Portuguese For
eign Minister Paulo Cunha. Mr.
Dulles made a reference to
Portuguese provinces in the
Far East" India Immediately
charged that this represented
support for Portugal and oppo-
sition to midas efforts to Dust
Portugal from Goa and take
over the little territory itself.
Mr.. Graham said after ar
hour Of talk with Mr.. Dulles:
~ don't think Mr.. Dulles meant
in the slightest to indorse COLO
Inialism. I got the impression
that United States policy is not

question whether Mr.. Wolfson'u
testimony win be needed.
Also on the witness list for
tomorrow is Col James P. Pink
ley OF GSA, who supervises that
agency's nickel operations. Mr..
Brooks said Col Pinkley signed
la letter turning Merritt Chap
man down cold" as the contrac-
tor. He said this letter followed
recommendation by National
Lead that Merritt Chapman be
given the contract alone.
"Col. Pinkley will be ques-
toned about that" Mr.. Brooks
said. He pointed to testimony
that Mr.. Mansure insisted the
Snare company be in on the
work and direct it. The Snare
company had built the plant in
World War II and had rehabili-
tated it when it was reopened
during the Korean War.
Testimony Cited
Mr.. Brooks described as "a
fascinating half-million-dollar
question" whether the construc-
ton contract could not have
been negotiated for less than a
$500, 900 fee for each of the two
companies. He cited Mr.. Crem-
er's testimony about the fees.
The Snare official was asked
whether the contract might have
been awarded for a total fee Of
100000. He replied that he did
not think that would be a de
cent fee" He said there were a
lot of expenses for which the
contractor is not reimbursed.

cations that the final roll call
will be close.
On the eve of the floor fight
both sides talked confidently OF
winning, but an informal check
indicated enough Senators to de-
eide the issue are still keeping
an open mind.
The debate is expected to last
at least two weeks, and possibly
longer.
Split on Regional Lines
Senate Democratic Leade r
johnson of Texas and Senate
Republican Leader Knowland Of
California favor the bill. But
the opposing sides are lining up
more on regional than party
lines. The decision of 60 local gas
distributing companies TO fight
the bill is expected to strengthen
opposition from Eastern and
Northern States with large CEN
tiers Of population.
Senator Knowland said yester-
day he believes the measure will
pass. The party line is so close
In the Senate, with 40 Democrats
to Al Republicans, that Senator
Knowland said he assumes ii
will take a majority Of each party
to put the bill through.
Both sides will claim to be on
the side Of the consumers. The
opponents contend exempting
the producers from regulation
by the Federal Power Commits
sion will pave the way for higher
rates to consumers.
District Company Attacked
Supporters of the exemption
bill have already set out to show
that the producers price Is a
small part of what the consum-
ers pay. In making this point,
Senator Monroney, Democrat of
Oklahoma. floor manager for the
exemption bill. has already cen
tered his attack on the rates of
the Washington Gas Light Co.,
which joined the council Of dis
tributing companies fighting the
bill.
Backers of the bill also argue
that 1t contains provisions to
protect consumers against ex-
cessive rate increases by enabling
the Federal Power Commission
to determine in some cases
whether an increase in the price
of gas is in excess Of reasonable
market price"
Opponents of the bill say this
definition is too vague to be eff
fective, and will offer an amend
ment to change it to a "just and
reasonable price"
The first aim Of the opponents
will be to amend the bill, so that
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-01-15

it would have to go back to the
House, which passed it last July
by the narrow margin Of 209 to
203. This means that a switch
of 4 votes, or even a few alb
sentees could change the result
in the House.
Senator Monroney will open
the debate tomorrow with a two
hour speech. He probably will
be followed by Senator Pastore
Democrat of Rhode Island, one
Of the leaders of the opposition
On the Republican side. Senators
Potter of Michigan and Purtell
of Connecticut joined in filing a
report against the bill.
Senator Douglas, Democrat OF
Illinois, who is taking an active
part in the opposition, said yes
terday he will offer a substitute
to exempt only producers who
sell less than two billion cubic
feet Of gas a year.
Curbs Seen Unneeded
Senator Douglas said this
would exempt 1890 out Of 5000
producers. But he said the re-
naming 200, who would be reg
ulated, sell 80 per cent Of the
gas.
Supporters Of the bill contend
that the discovery and produc-
ton Of gas is a competitive field,
and that there is no more reason
to regulate it than there would
be to regulate coal, which is
sold to electric generating plants
They say that unless the free
play Of competitive industry Is
permitted it is doubtful that the
risk necessary to discover needed
new sources Of gas supply will
be taken.
The opponents contend that II
consumer protection is to be ef-
ifective 1t cannot begin lin the
middle OF the stream" leaving
the producer unregulated.

Concluding that racial friend
ship will triumph and prevail on
the athletic field, despite the rule
of the courts, the way of the poll
ticians, or legislation and citing
chapter and verse in proof, the
current issue of Sports magazine
features carefully-researched
story that looks at the gains the
Negro competitor has made in the
South, largely since Jackie Robin
son first put on a Brooklyn Dodg-
er uniform.
Sports looks back on days not
in the distant past when incidents
would have precluded such an opti-
mistic conclusion. "Send us an
outfielder," insisted the directors
of the Dublin, Ga, club when Pitts
burgh announced desire to ship
Dublin a Negro player, $50 he'll
be as far away from the stands as
possible"
In 1949, it was the late DR..

that "Jackie Robinson will never

5. A fo.low-up study of Project
students in college, directed by
DR.. Kenneth B. Clark, member
of the NSSFNS Board of Direct
crs, reveales that students from
the lower socio-economic brackets
did better college work than their
aptitude test scores predicted. For
~, these deprived groups, existing
standardized tests of scholastic APP
titude seem tC measure what stu
dents have learned rather than
what they can learn.
In the search for students with
the greatest college potential, seq,
regated high schools in the Al
largest cities of the South were
visited seven times each by the
members of NSSFNS field staff
A total of 3,178 students, wht
were selected by their principal:
and counsellors as ranking in thu
top 1917 of their senior classes
were first told about college op
portunities, then given aptitud
tests to determine their ability t.
do college work. Of the more thai
half who qualified, about 304f re
ceived college scholarships, man
of them supplemented by NSSFN'
grants, and enrolled in interracia
colleges. Most of the others foun
their way to predominantly Negr
colleges nearer home.

about the nature Of mental illness, about psy-

be helped if they would accept the fact that
