THE WORLD OF
TOMORROW

For many years it has been
the vogue for men to say that
the frontiers have all been tanned
and that the days of great explor-
atoms are at an end.
In one sense, that is true. AS
far as exploration on this earth
is concerned, most of the coun-
tries, rivers, oceans, and so forth,
have been discovered.
However, this earth is only a
speck in a great vastness of space
and is insignifi- mt in compare
son with what surrounds it. AS
far as the future is concerned,
the youngster today faces a world
of marvels, spectacular adventure
and discovery never before
equalled.
Today's youngsters will some
day travel to the moon and
ever beyond, and will conquer
space, just as the early Norsemen
first crossed the Atlantic, follow
ed by others, including Chris
topher Columbus, to discover
and just as other ex-
plerers discovered the most re-
mote places of this earth.

LOW HOME
INTEREST RATE

One of the prerequisites to a
proper democratic society is a
decent rate of interest for the
veteran, or responsible American
citizen, who wishes to purchase a
home for his family. The natural
thing for any young American
who gets married and starts a
family, or who has been married
for some time, saving up for the
purpose, is to buy a home for
his family.
The purchase of a home by
most families means that some
of the money will have to be
borrowed. We do not believe in
socializing the construction indus
try or the financing industry, but
do believe the Government
has a responsibility to see to it
that citizens are not fleeced in
purchasing what is usually the
largest single item of their lives.
This can often near the diff
ference between happiness and
dissatisfaction for many, and the
difference in dollars can add up
to several thousand in a lifetime.
we think Congress
should see to it that the Govern
nent makes available enough re-
insurance authority to properly
AXE care of all veterans who
to purchase homes, and 9TH
IT'S who have paid their taxes and
lave been law-abiding citizens
md are, therefore, responsible
citizens.

THE QUIZ

The rash of quiz programs, eS-
pecially on TV, reminds us of the
old radio quiz show, or the one
we consider the all-time, old-time
quiz show, called Information,
Please"
The regulars on that famous
show were John Kieran, Frank
lin P. Adams and Oscar Levant.
A guest, or a fourth member,
completed the panel.
These experts were excellent
radio fare, back when radio was
THE air wave entertainment me-
dunn. We always admired John
Kieran as a sports writer and his
performance on the radio was
equally good. Franklin Adams
and Oscar Levant were also wor
thy competitors.
We point out the success of this
old radio show to illustrate how
much difference in the lives of
all of us a few decades make.
Kieran, Adams and Levant might
well have been the top quiz show
stars of television, as they were

ance version of Tactical Air Com
mand's newest bomber. Captain
Arthur F. Smith was the COM
mander who flew the 2,400-miles
from California to South Carolina
in less than three and a half
hours. The pilot took advantage
of high speed tail winds at a very
high altitude, which we're found
in what is called a jet stream.
The RB-660 carried a crew of
seven. Utilizing the same kind of
jet streams which brought it from
California to the East Coast in
three hours and twenty-seven
minutes, the bomber could have
crossed from the northeastern tip
of the United tates to London in
about the same time.
One can see what passenger
travel to Europe will be in a
few years when such aircraft
are put into commercial service.
A business man will be able to
leave Boston early one morning,
have lunch in London, spend a
lew hours at business and return
to his home in Boston that night.

1853 I have found it necessary
to urge Federal action in some
areas traditionally reserved to
the States. In each instance
State inaction, or inadequate ac-
ton. coupled with undeniable
national need, has forced emer-
gency Federal intervention.
The education of our youth is
a prime example.
Classroom shortages, in some
places no less than critical, are
largely the product Of depression
and wars. which. Of course, were
national and international. not
State or local, both in their orr
gins and effects. These classroom
shortages have become potential
ly so dangerous to the entire Ma
ton and have yielded so slowly
to local effort as to compel
emergency action. Thus was
forced a Federal plan of tempo
rary assistance adjusted to the
communities and designed not
to supplant but to supplement
their own efforts.
I at once concede that, in
Government as with individuals,
there is an instructive inclination
to persist in any activity once
begun. But if it be the peoples
wiz. and I believe 1t is. I have no
doubt at all that we can defeat
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1957-06-25

that inclination in respect to
Federal help in school construc-
ton, once the emergency need
has been satisfied.
Three other basic problems
provide simple examples Of how
filling the vacuum" tends to
construct State and local RESP on
sibility.
They are such problems as
Islum clearance and urban re-
newal; problems caused by ma
tural disasters: problems of traf-
flc safety.
AS for the FIRST, the lack OF
energetic State attention to urb-
an needs over the past decade
has spawned a host Of Federal
activities that are more than
difficult to curtail. Today, for
help on urban problems, COM
mittees Of mayors are far more
likely to journey to Washington
than to State capitals.
1t always has seemed to me
that, in such meetings. Federal
and municipal authorities have
united in a two-pronged assault
upon the State echelon Of gov
eminent. attacking simultan-
eously both from above and from
below.
Yet the needs of our cities
