Meanwhile. it appears certain
that the Governments air reg
ulatory agencies are due for q
drastic change.
Chairman Monroney of the
Senate Aviation Subcommittee
saw mo visible opposition" to
his bill to overhaul present
airway controls by setting I'D
q new Federal aviation agency.
The Senator figured that
about the only opposition would
come from Commerce Secre-
.tary Weeks and his Undersec-
Rotary for Transportation, Louis
8. Rothschild.
Presently the Civil Aero
nautics Administration, which
operates the Nationwide air.
ways system, is part of the
Commerce Department. The
Civil Aeronautics Board, which
d determines air routes and
safety rules among other func-
lions, is an independent agency.
In One Agency
The Monroney bill would
put both in the new agency,
headed by a single administra-
tor directly responsible to the
President and Congress.
Meanwhile Henry j. Rolls,
candidate for the Democratic
nomination for the House from
Virginia's 10th district, called
for immediate steps to stop
"senseless slaughter of in
nocent air passengers at the
hands of military Jet pilots"
To alleviate the situation in
this area he suggested the Fed
eral Government start Chantilly
Airport in Virginia without
delay.
In another development on
the air safety front. the CAA
announced it would try to work
out with the airline pilots an
extension to Florida and to the
west of the so-called Golden
Triangle procedure of ground
controlled fight.
The triangle now covers the
heavily Travelled air routes be-
tween Washington, New York
and Chicago. All airline pilots
operating in that area fly only
on airways and under instru-
ment flight rules when above
1900 feet, no matter how good
the weather.

in the current Federal budget
is a major inflationary factor.
We must learn that we cannot
add new programs to the Fed
eral budget unless we are pre-
pared to levy taxes to pay for
them"
But it remained for Con-
gresham Clarence Cannon
(Dem., Missouri), Chairman of
the House Appropriations
Committee, and Vice Chairman
of the Joint Committee on Re-
duction of Nonessential Fed
eral Expenditures, to call a
spade spade" He admonish-
ed his fellow members in the
Congress thusly:
when you go home at the
close of the session and your
people (the folks back honey
complain about the high cost
of living, do not pass the buck.
Tell them the facts. Tell them
the national debt is higher be-
cause you voted to make 1T
higher. Tell them the dollar
has gone down and the cost of
groceries has gone up because
you voted to depreciate the
dollar and voted to raise
prices"
Congressman Cannon IS so
right in scolGing the members
OF, the 85th Congress for their
profligacy, for not having said
mo" to us folks back home
to many of the costly projects
we proposed to them. They
should be censured for their
lack of intestinal fortitude-
but, in the final analysis, it
is we folks back home" who
are the real culprits. Maybe
some day the truth will dawn
on us that if we insist upon
Uncle Sam playing Santa
Claus, we must pay the cost of
the gifts Cd he dispenses, plus
large fee for his services.

We Have Not Moved
Forward In Education

November 4, 1858 will be a day
of decision that is destined to
alter the lives of hundreds of
school children. The voters must
make the decision.
Our school children of today
viii soon be the leaders Of
tomorrow. In a form of govern
ment such as ours there can only
be security and stability when
the citizens are informed.
During the past week it was
the pleasure of my family to
observe the new GAINESVILLE and
Beverly high schools. AS tea
cher and parent it was study

have in Belle Valley.
/ have no regrets for the type
of education received as stu
dent at Belle Valley. As mem
Der of a team of teachers at
Belle Valley faculty we have
records to show that Belle Val
ley, at one time, was considered
among the best in education as
well as athletics.
My more recent>experiences in
meeting with some of the best
teachers in the state and check
ing on their facilities prove bey-
ond doubt that now our pres
ent system of education IS not
adequate. We have not moved
forward to give our school chill
dren an even break with others

US FOLKS BACK HOME
By George Peck

most impressive record, but
not an enviable one-it was the
"spendingest" aggregation of
lawmakers that has ever as
sembled anywhere, at any
time. One is led to wonder
from where most of our u. S.
Senators and Representatives
got the courage to face the
folks back home" and we are
not overlooking the fact that
the Congressman indulged in
wild spending binge because
those self-same ''folks back
home" demanded more and
from government.
It's awfully hard at times
to understand these "folks
back home" They seem to
realize in local and state affairs
that increased tax burdens go
hand in hand with increased
benefits. If new school or a
new hospital is proposed, they
give it the most serious con-
sideration before giving their
approval. In many cases they
even reject the proposal. But
y those self-same cautious folks
back home" throw caution to
4 the winds when it comes to
4 Federal expenditures. Federal
money they kid themselves
4 into believing is ''for free"
In the closing days of the
last session of the Congress, a
handful of our Federal legisla-
tors uttered words of wisdom,
sounded warning that the
folks back home" should read
4 and heed. For instance, Con-
gresham Leon Gavin (Rep.,
q Penna.) had this to say:
\ 'The Government today is
& becoming Government of
8 pressure groups-in fact, a
n Government of subsidies. We
subsidize many and varied pro-
grams-frcm agriculture to
minerals we are creating a
utopia where no one can lose.
n The Government will protect
and finance all phases of our
economic and social life. We
may go bankrupt and create
chaos; however, these pro-
grams must go on. Certainly
we did not build our country
on subsidy programs. Amer
lea was built by hard work,
thrift and frugality. Unless we
change the trend i am quite
certain we will end up with a
bureaucratic vernm t
overlooking all phases of our
economic and industrial life"
'To meet this situation, we,
as Members of Congress" said
Congressman Keith Thomson
tRep. Wyo.) "must evidence
backbone instead of wishbone.
Really what is most required is
for individual Americans to
realize WHAT is BEING
DONE TO THEM INSTEAD
OF FOR THEM"
Had it not been for the Fed
eral public debt limit, the
spending spree of the 85th
Congress might have been even
worse. It is true that the debt
limit was granted temporary
hike of SIS billion to cover the
. SO deficit and a further in
crease to $288 billion to cover
the SO shortage, but these debt
increases alarmed some of the
congressman. They bestirred
themselves to put the brakes
on deficit spending-otherwise
the 85th Congress would have
been an even greater Spend

Allen (Rep., Ill.) serving his

Man of the OH-Seoson

There is absolutely no doubt Of It,
Stan Musial is the year-around sports
personality In this country.
During the baseball season, the
National Leagues greatest player is a
headline natural. Quiet, shy, modest
and as popular with opposing players
as with baseball fans everywhere, Mu-
sial makes almost daily news with his
feats.
Yet the real test Of Stan, the Man,
Is the one he meets in the off-season
when he Is professionally inactive. 1t Is
then he becomes a collector Of miscella-
reous honors, one after another. Among
these are Xavier Universitys sportsman
ship award, Theta Delta Chis Lou Geh-
rig award, and many others testifying
TO the fact that good guys finish first
as well as last.
There are even surprises among the
Musial honors, such as this weeks list
ing among the top comebacks Of 1857.
The latter is based upon his winning
again the National League batting cham
pionship after being mere second or
third during the previous few seasons.
The fact remains, however, that
Musial has never been far enough away
TO qualify for comeback. He is here,
has been for 16 seasons, and baseball
can count him one Of its major blessings.

Transport Troubles

A Senate Commerce subcommittee
begins hearing tomorrow on a matter
vital to the national economy. 1t is, in
brief, the financial crisis" of the rail-
road industry-re1ected in declining
freight and passenger traffic, rising
costs and, for too many roads, disap-
pearing profits.
But in the background Of this par
ticular inquiry is a broader question
that has been plaguing thoughtful
students Of the overall transportation
industry, namely, whether the whole
philosophy and structure of Govern
ment regulation should not be over
hauled-at least to the point of greater
coordination of the restraints imposed
upon railroads, airlines, bus and truck
lines, pipelines and waterways. In va
rious areas, all of these overlap or
compete-under regulations that are
established by different governmental
agencies, and under different yard
sticks for measuring the so-called
public interest. Not only are they fight
ing each other for traffic and revenue
q situation acceptable under a truly
private enterprise system-they are
fighting each other, and government,
over the differing standards Of regula-
ton.
In the case of the railroads, current
regulation is based upon the Transport
tation Act of 1924 time when the
rails still were dominant to a point of
near-monopoly. Although the Interstate
Commerce Commission has shown a
great degree Of understanding and fiex-
Utility in adjusting to changing condi-
tons In the transportation industry,
the rail carriers attribute much OF
their present troubles to regulatory
requirements as well as Federal.
presumably, their complaints justified
or otherwise--will be aired before the
Senate committee.
Among the proposals already publ
cized are: Cost-cutting steps through
mergers and increased use Of Joint ia
cilities; freedom TO drop Improbable
services and raise rates on others; ex-
pansion into other forms Of transporta-
tion, and adjustment Of charges TO COM
pete with other forms Of transportation;
and Government subsidy, in effect,
! through establishment Of Government
pool Of equipment which would be leased
to the roads.

industrial Virginia

In his final message to the Virginia
General Assembly. Governor Stanley
emphasized the importance Of encour-
aging wider industrial development in
the State. He had good reason to urge
the legislators-most of whom represent
areas largely devoted to farming-to in
crease appropriations for promoting
factory and other business expansion.
For, as he pointed out early in his ad-
dress, the growth Of manufacturing and
other industries in recent years has been
an important factor" in bringing about
today's economic well-being of the peo-
pie of Virginia"
Virginia's prosperity Is indicated by
Its achievement in ending the biennium
between Legislatures with an estimated
unobligated balance Of $50 .6l5. 900. Thus
1t Is in q position to grant the outgoing
Governors request for enlarged services
to the people without raise in taxes.
Closely related to this favorable fiscal
situation Is the recent rapid increase
Of Industrial activities. largely resulting
from an influx of factories and other
plants from other States.
During the past year, Governor
Stanley said. nonagricultural employ
ment in Virginia passed the million
mark for the first time In the States
history. The average weekly wage of
factory workers in recent months has
risen to an all-time high flor the State)
of $65.6l. During the past four years
nearly 81 billion has been invested in
new plants and expansion programs by
all types Of industry-heavy and light.
Said the retiring Governor: II am con-
WINGED that further emphasis on indus
trial development will pay rich divi-
dends in maintaining strong Virginia
economy and in advancing the welfare
Of our people" He recommended, there
fore, larger appropriations for adver-
Using and promotion work through
State departments and agencies.
The State Is not alone in reaping
the benefits of industrial expansion.
Counties and cities have found that it
payS-in increased tax revenues-to in
vite businesses to operate within their
boundaries. Nearby Virginia communi-
ties already are interested in encour-
aging limited industrial development.
This may involve some changes in zon-
Ing restrictions, always a controversial
subject, but compromises probably will
be necessary If the tempting pros
pect Of substantial additional revenue
sources Is to become reality.
