NEA Warns TV
Won't End Lack
Of Teachers

The National Education
Association cautioned yesterday
that educational television is
mot the educational revolu-
ton" but merely an effective
aid in the teaching process.
A study report by the Educa-
tional Policies Commission
points out that television
won't solve the teacher short
age" or save much money. as
suggested by "Some over
enthusiastic supporters of the
medium"
The EPC, sponsored jointly
by NEA and the American
Association of School Admins
Itration, said television can re-
Ilieve teachers of routine con-
'struction and delivery of ex-
pository m a terial." leaving
them more time to help indi-
vidual students.
The report also warned:
There would seem to be an
inherent quality of dullness in
repetitive sentences concerning
dogs, boys and apples for a
child who understands some
thing of guided missiles"

DORIS FLEEsoN
Debate Over Acc Policies

ing regarded as only another
dreary chapter of the SEEM
ingly endless feud between
the two strong-willed men.
1t is now become obvious
that the development of de-
fensive nuclear weapons is
the principal preoccupation
of the Acc today. 1t is ap-
parent, too, from the testi-
mony of Admiral Strauss and
others that the job of per-
fecting the clean bomb which
is vital to the antl-mlssile
missile is long way from be-
ing accomplished. This would
properly account for the Acc
chairman's meSsianic atti-
tude toward continued test
ing.
The question which puz-
zleS Washington is why he
would prefer to lose the argu-
ment, rather than be candid
about his real objective. He
cannot be so naive as to ex-
pect that other nations will
believe this country would
not use the ultimate weapon
to secure its own survival.

menace they are designed to
counteract.
BY failing to tell the whole
truth, the Strauss Teller
forces have allowed to become
current a number of false
impressions. A major one is
that somehow, some way we
proposed to launder nuclear
warfare for the benefit of our
enemies as we'll as ourselves
and our friends. Nothing
could be further from the
truth.
Denial of territory to the
enemy has always been a
valid military objective. 1t
is the reason Sherman de-
Stroyed as he marched through
Georgia to the sea; it is the
reason the Russians burned
Moscow in the face of Ma
poleon's advance. Nuclear
bomb radiation has at last
provided the military with a
weapon which cannot only
deny territory but keep it
denied for years.
The foregoing explains the
curious argument between
Admiral Strauss and Senator
Clinton Anderson Of New
Mexico. Senator Anderson
proclaimed that the military
was actually "dirtying up"
existing stockpiies of bombs,
1t would be surprising, in
view of the military's job,
which is to create a more,
powerful offensive than Rus
Sia'S, If this were not true.
Admiral Strauss has fenced
with Senator Anderson on
technicalities which have
ohscured the issue. The net
is that the discussion is be.

Communist InfiItrotion Drive

Inside the United States
there isn't as yet q general

Anderson Of New Mexico.
Democrat, In a spur-of-the-
moment comment on q tele-
vision broadcast - which he
probably regretted the mo-
ment he made it--said that
the United States military
men want dirty" bombs and
are making "dirtier" H
bombs. The Atomic Energy
Commission denied this cate
gorically. but for the last few
days the Soviet radio has
been exultantly repeating In
many languages throughout
the world the comment by
former head Of the Joint
Committee on Atomic Energy
Of both houses Of Congress.
Then there is the situation
about surprise attack"
which the Russians have
been publicizing lately be-
cause of American maneuvers
in the Arctic. A new drive is
on to compel our Strategic
Air Command TO stop train
ing for interception Of a sur
prise attack. This, plus a ban
on further testing Of nuclear
weapons. would give a mill
tary advantage of tremen-
dous value to the SovietS. \
Small wonder the Com
munists think they can con-
quer or dominate the world
without firing a shot - they
still think Americans are
gullible and naive. And.
judging by the current atti-
tude here toward Soviet in
filtration in the United States,
the Communist planners may
feel they have some basis
for their theories, though it
would prove to be a tragis
miscalculation if they ever
forced the issue to a climax.

which organized propaganda

been thriving lately. not only

The Communist success in

tune-bad fortune that ac-
companies Senator Kennedy's
march along the presidential
trail
For all this has been most
helpful in this sense: 1t has
brought him currently before
the public more prominently
and in a more kindly way
than any other Democratic
hopefui for 1860.
But the very fact that his
publicity has on the whole
been so uncritical has done
him anything but a service
with other Democratic pol
iticians, and many others.
They suspect him. soundly
or not. of running a vast pub
lie relations stable - or of
letting his father run one
for him.
At a recent Gridiron Club
dinner this view was put
succinctly in a Skit based
upon the song, MY Heart
Belongs to Daddy" OF Sen
ator Kennedy it was chanted:
1--WE send all the bills to
daddy cause daddy pays
them so we'll"
There is, parenthetically,
some irony in this. For Sena-
tor Kennedy is by no means
the richest member of the
Senate. And certain others
now prominent in politics
for example, Gov. Harri-
man of New York on the
Democratic side and Nelson
Rockefeller on the Repub-
lican-are not notably short
of the long green.
The distinction, If any, is
that these men spend it with

Vests Stand and Reds Defect Stirs
Question OF What to Expect Next

Even the most bitter OPP
ponents Of John Foster Dulles
admit that he provided al the
NATo parley In Copenhagen
the first genuine diplomatic
success this country has en-
joyed In many years.
The political texture OF the
i5-nation NATO coalition
has been Unexpectedly
strengthened In O manner
which leads many observers
and critics Of the Secretary
Of State to regard the future
more optimistically.
Il Is true that Mr.. Dulles
received great help from an
unexpected quarter - the
Soviet Union. But for the re-
cent antics Of Premier Khru-
shchev eliminated by Rus
sia's using her SD veto at
the United Nations on q sem
sible Arctic inspection pro-
proposal. 1t Is doubtful that
the riffs and trends" so
painfully noticeable in that
heterogeneous NATO coali-
ton would have been mend
ed.
Even near-neutralist coun-
tries, afraid Of Russia be-
cause Of its Proximity, have
agreed that a summit meet
ing would be useless unless
the Kremlin, which initiated
the idea with much fanfare
and a powerful propaganda
blast, shows some tangible
proof of good faith. The
military power of the NATO
in conventional forces con-
tinues to lag. But at least it
has become unified politically
by the conviction that the
Red dictator and his tools

in that of their country. And
the Kremlin knows that q

in the cards that If Khru-

John F. Kennedy and His Money

sive to some of his critics.
who hold Gov. Harri-
mans richness to be wholly
right and proper. The
thought arises that this view
is hardly liberal, though very
vocal and sometimes profess
sional liberals hold 1t and
gladly express it at some
length.
The suspicion is that they
don't like the Senator's hav-
ing money because (a) they
don't think he is really a
liberal: or (b) they simply
see some inherent impropriety
in it. In other words, a tiny
snobbery may have raised its
head here: It's all right to be
rich If you are a Roosevelt, a
Hartman or a Rockefeller,
but not if you are a Boston
Irishman.
At all events, whatever the
rights of the matter, he has
got too much money. or too
much money for a man like
him. or he spends it too
crudely-or is supposed to do
so.
1t may be. indeed, that all
this-whether it is the simple
truth or simply legends as
great a handicap to him as
the fact that he is a Catholic.
Fair-minded persons could
not regard this latter fact
as properly a disability. But
some of the ablest politicians
known to thiSscorrespondent
and some of them Catho-
lies. too-believe that it is.
Otherwise, this. briefly, is
one observers balance sheet
on Senator Kennedy:
Good points-An excellent
political mind. one of the
best, at least academically,
in the Senate. A strong sense
of fairness and tolerance in
public issues.
Bad points-A somewhat
spotty voting record that has
looked at times unduly ex-
pedient. A personal ambition
perhaps rising too high and
too soon. An inordinate aura
of youthfulness that some
how makes him look even
younger than he is.
