. CT homes acquired by Veterans
Administration are sold in the
same way that houses are usually
sold by i1aiividua-S = through
local real estate brokers, VA ex-
planned today.
Obtained from lenders in con-
nect4on with claims paid on CT
loans, the houses are sold by
VA to recover as much of the
guaranty payment as possible,
the agency said.
Sale of these homes may be
financed by the Government on
liberal terms, including low down
payments and long repayment
periods, VA pointed out, and the
purchasers need not be veterans.
Contrary to a widely-held be-
lief, the houses are sold at their
current market value and not on
a Government surplus" basis,
VA emphasized.
Since the CT loan program
began in 1914, VA has sold &c.
868 homes throughout the ma
ton.
AS of September 80, 1858, VA
has 4,642 houses available for
sac.
This total of 34,510 houses
represents mere two-thirds of
one percent of the 5,159,667 GI
home loans guaranteed or in
sured by VA, the agenky added.
The Arizona Regional Office
of the Veterans Administration
has acquired 240 properties since
inception of the Loan Guaranty
Program. OF this number, 218
properties have been sold at
total price of 81 ,683 ,975.00. The
Arizona VA Office now has a
total of % properties on hand,
although only 6 of these have
been listed for sale. The re-
mainder are undergoing recon-
ditioning after which they will be
offered for sale to the public
through approved brokers.

FACING THE FACTS
By w. A. Robinson

work hard on difficult subjects
in the school SO the pressure
is put on the school by
some people or agenci les
in the community to REQUIRE
these subjects of the children.
Most school people will know
that this doesn't make sense, SO
we decide to try motivation and
our efforts sometimes come very
close to blackmail We try en-
barrassment and, worse, we try
humiliation. We decide that it
would motivate the children if
we offer special diploma for
bright students who take the
hard courses. We forget all about
education for living in a de-
mocracy, Or, we are afraid to
consider this because somebody
Of influence has called this by
the ridiculous name of together
ness"
We are persuaded that living
is a matter of ruthless competi-
ton. We don't recognize the fact
that successful living is also a
matter of mutual respect and
cooperation. The child popula-
ton of our nation is made up
Of bright, mediocre, and slow
children and they should grow
up knowing that this is normal
kind of population and that
there is place of honor for
each of us in our country if
each uses properly the talents
that God has given him.
Public schools are maintained
to hep all of us to acquire the
ability to use we'll what potenti-
ality we brought into this worl0.
We must also be taught to evalu-
ate ourselves and others accu-
rately without either loss of re-
Spect or envy.
American public high schools
are not maintained for the pur-
pose Of branding some of us
forever as inferior by giving US
a signed paper saying that we
are, after we have struggled
through the years in spite of
time-demanding but very nee
cessary jobs before and after
school in spite of poor health
that prevented regular attend
ance, or in spite of being newt
ably in the great three fourthS
that could never hope or expect
to make the honor roll.
American high schools are
public institutions in a great de-
mocracy and are maintained for
the purpose of helping all of us,
rich and poor, healthy and frail,
bright and dull, to find our in
dividual spot of service and to
fill with dignity and honor.
Arizona sun., 1958-12-04

Those Americans, who want to
know, can find out that pro-
gressive education as a term
means a process of seeking phil
csophically, scientifically, and
experimentally to make progress
toward finding and using the
best ways of educating young
people. This often means having
to abandon long-used proceed
ure and learning to use a better
one that has been carefully work
ed out
Schools that would never ad-
NIT that they wou ID consider any
progressive" ideas have profited
from this kind of research with
out ever knowing it. The sad fact
is that many ideas, which have
been proved to be highly va'u-
able, have never found their way
into many American schools be-
cause of the strong resistance
to change.
Recently DR.. Walton Manning
in his series on education in the
Sunday Republic has been dis
cuSsing some of these changes
in school procedure promoted by
the progresSives. DR.. Manning
has been interested in how these
changes in school procedure
should come to be adopted by
a school. Said he last Sunday
in warning us about any dog
matte attitude on homework, that
parents should participate in the
adoption Of school procedure.
Parents should not assume full
responsibility for deciding what
shall be school procedure. They
may not know enough about the
reasons behind doing or rot do
ing things a certain way, to
make a categorical judgement.
The responsibility should GER
tainly include the principal and
the superintendent because they
should have the professional
knowledge and the courage to
make a definitive judgement
about educational procedure.
However. sometimes school adj
miniStratorS are ignorant about
these things so they should not
have the sole responsibility
either. Homework which DR..
Manning discussed last Sunday
is an Illustration of a very con-
troversial matter. He tried to
tell his readers how pressure of
something like Sputnick and
newspaper editors can cause
schools to put into effect some
thing that knowledgeable school
administrators know is no proper
answer to school problems.
For instance, we want or
have our children study and
