or else they will not be carried
as a separate list by the South
ern Association. Any college
which is not accepted by 1861
may in the future improve its
sta dards and apply for mem
bership. This program is one
of reasonable procedure and
bids fair to be of great service
to all the universities and col
leges in the South. 1t is clear
that in the future the examin-
ations of the work of these col
leges will need to be qualita-
tive as well as cumulative. 1t
is much simpler to have objec-
tive measurements such as the
number of teachers with PHI
DIS or the number of volumes
In a library or the amount of
space for laboratories or the
number of students per teach
er than it is to judge the quail
ity of teaching. The South is
moving rapidly to put its work
in education on high level
but education in itself is of
such a nature that time for
changes is most necessary.
This is especially true in ele-
mentary education where tea
cheers have been trained under
standards which we today
think of as inadequate.

President Samuel c. Kinch-
eloe of Tougaloo Southern
Christian College has recently
made an Interpretation of the
fact that the Southern Asso-
citation of Colleges and Secon-
Diary Schools at its meeting in
Richmond, Virginia on Deem
Der 5th invited into full men,
bership Is senior colleges and
three Junior colleges. There
are over go colleges on its list
of accredited schools. Some of
these have not complied COM
pletely with all of the stand
ards set down by the Southern
Association. DR.. Kincheloe
points out that this is a very
significant move in the direc-
ton of more basic relationship
of all the educational institu-
tons in the Association. For Is
schools to be admitted to full
membership has greater signi-
ficance than a mere token of
three or four. On the other
hand, even though a large pro-
portion of the So colleges was
not admitted, a definite pro-
gram for such admission is un-
derway. BY 1861 all these col
leges will either by admitted
to full membership, which
means complete generalization.

II embodies the vision Of the

Those builders built even
better than they had planned.

people had elected him to be
President. and not Mr.. Nixon,
and they did not expect him to
step down from Office.
BY the time the report of
what Speaker Rayburn was
purported to have said had
passed through three or four
persons it had snowballed into
the rumor that the President
actually planned to withdraw,
as often happens in this gos-
sip shop.
Those disturbed by the mere
thought of Dick Nixon becom-
ing President fed their fears
and began to believe "the
worst" as it would be 10 them.
Goodness toward the Vice
President among Democratic
leaders who manage this Con-
gress is manifest in the almost
lonely isolation in which they
leave him. In fact he finds lit
tie to do at the Capitol where
the Vice Presidents Office is
located.
He does not perform for the
President the role of go-be-
tween or liaison with the Sem
ate and Congress as a whole
which has been the chief
function Of some Vice Presi-
dents in the past.
This was so most recently
in the case Of the popular
weep" the late Vice Presi-
dent Barley whose Office was
a sort Of crossroads in the
second Truman Administra-
ton. That was so, too, with
Vice President John N. Garner
of Texas in the first two
Franklin d. Roosevelt terms.
Nor does Vice President
Nixon act often for the Presi-
dent with Republicans. The
word" that makes them
spring into action comes by
telephone from Sherman
Adams. the Assistant to the
President who has become so
much more than that.
Indeed, Vice President Nixon
spends less time with the Sem
ate, of which he is by custom
presiding officer, than any
Vice President in many years.
The closest parallel is Henry
Wallace when he was Vice
President during Franklin d.
Rooscvelt's third term. He was
not a mixer and was left alone
by his colleagues much of the
time.
Vice President Nixon is q
mixer, a hale fellow well-met,
but he finds little exercise for
these talents among Senators.
He has spent less time about
the Senate than did even
Henry Wallace.
