Korean upheaval. I am con-
vinced that Syngman Rhee
commanded the popular
support of the Korean
people and, If it had not
been for the State Depart
ment's interference, could
have turned aside the mi
nority revolt. The success Of
the Korean students unques-
tionably has now inspired
their counterparts through

slightest doubt that there
was significant Communist
influence behind the riots in
Korea as well as among the
students fighting against a
the approval of the United
States-JapaneSe security pact
and the visit of President
Eisenhower to Japan. To
say that these demonstra-
tionS represented popular
feelings shows the gullibility
of the many diplomats and
weuld-be Far East experts.
There is no question that
mob violence is a carefully
cultivated tool of the Com
munistS and it is well known
that students from all over
the world are trained by the
Russians and Chinese in the
art of fomenting unrest.

Military experts in this
country as well as in Britain
and France are convinced
that if there is any shooting
trouble in the near future it
will take place in the Far
East and will be provoked by
the Kremlin'S pacemakers,
the Chinese Communists. In
order to increase their
chances Of victory it is es-
sential to disrupt the solid,
patriotic and highly trained
ROK army. The first step
is to overthrow the expert
enced ROK high command.
And this they seem to be in
the process of doing.

Control of Child by State and Drive
For Group Character Found Appalling
RALPH McGILL

DR.. Roy NJ. Hall, Assistant
Commissioner for Research
in the. United States Office
of Education, recently re-
turned from Russia, where he
studied the research objec-
tives of its educators. What
he learned is not reaSsuring,
esecially since it now is more
than ever apparent we shall
for a long time be dealing with
the Soviet Man" emerging
from the educational proc
eSSes of the USSR.
DR.. Hail found teacher re-

three major group headings.

research" and development
Of the total potential"
We must make haste to
say that by character" So
Wet education does not mean
anything remotely resem-
bling our common use of the
word. What their methods
aim to produce is "a COM
mon Soviet character" They
are not secret about this.
Nor do they see anything ap-
palling in it. They are opti-
mistic about being able to Gre
ate a collective minded per-
son whose total thinking is
motivated by a group con-
cept, or view.
Soviet educators explained
to DR.. Hall that they seek to
educate children to subordi-
nate self naturally and auto
matically. Their instruction
shames thought of self. This
they believe, in time, can be
placed permanently in the
SubconsciouS.
In order better to do this,
they are placing more en-
phaSis on almost total control
of the child during its school
years. BY 1870 they expect to

have more than so per cent
of all pupils. from kinder
garten through secondary, in
boarding schools. This deci-
sion grew out of research.
Children whose parents, of
course, did not have this col
lective character" schooling
do not respond so readily if
they continue to live at home.
A child is always being edu-
Gated and what it learns at
home often clashes with what
is being taught. Until such
parents die out and are re-
placed by new ones from the
system, more and more chill
dren will be educated away
from them.
The children study and
work together. There are
group tasks and projects.
"Groupness" is demanded.
Instruction exalts it as neces-
Sary to the welfare of the
community and nation.
In area research. Soviet
educators try to learn to
what extent work experience
develops the pupils intellec-
tual abilities and also habits
of work and an appreciation
Of it. Control groups are used.
For a period one group alter
mates work and study. Others
mix the two.
The third research area
seeks to determine the total
productive potential. Super
visorS do this by assigning
harder and harder tasks and
studies. They then study what
the brightest pupils and best
teachers accomplished and
assign this to the slower
learners.
They also estimate how
many persons will be needed
IN each segment of society
and direct to schools enough
pupils to become skilled work.

Butler Fights
Gravel Custer

BATON ROUGE, La, May %
(AP) The Democratic State
and National Committees are
at loggerheads over the ousting
of national committeeman Ca
mile Gravel.
Democratic National Chair
man Butler said in Washing
ton that Mr.. Gravel is still rec
ognized as national committee
man from Louisiana and will
serve through the party'S ma
tional convention in July.
Mr.. Gravel was ousted from
his post yesterday in a move
by the State committee which
declared that Mr.. Gravel's job
no longer existed under State
law. A new post was made and
Harry v. Booth, Shreveport at
torney. was appointed the new
committeeman.
This is practically a dupl;-
cation of the situation in 1858
when the State committee fired
Mr.. Gravel and the national
committee refused to recognize
the action.
Mr., Gravel's moderate atti-
tude towards integration ap-
parently made him the target
OF strong segregation factions
on the committee which is
headed by Gov. Jimmie H.
Davis.
After the committee action
in Baton Rouge, Mr.. Gravel
stated that it could lead to a
challenge of the Louisiana dele
cation at the July II Los
Angeles convention.
Mr.. Gravel is co-chairman
OF the credentials committee at
the convention, which certifies
delegates and determines if
their presence is legal or il
legal.
Along with Mr.. Gravel's job,
that of the national committee
woman. Mrs. Earl K. Long, was
also abolished. However, Mrs.
Long, estranged wife of former
Gov. Long, resigned her posi-
ton, leaving open the way for
the committee to appoint Gov.
Davis wife.

ers, Semi-Skilled laborers,

DR.. Hall believes the deci-
sion, eight months ago, to add
enough manual work to leng.
then the time spent in school
. by a full year grew out of the
fact the Soviets were having
difficulty finding high-level
employment for all its grad
uates. The government was
fearful of the discomfort of a
generation of educated young
men and women who would
expect work commensurate
with their learning and would
not all be able to have it. Mr..
Khrushchev did say, one re-
calls, that too many Soviet
young people thought educa-
ton made them too good to
work with their hands.
DR.. Hall further believes
some of their educational sta
tistics may not accurately be
compared with ours. Their
secondary schools and COL
leges weed out the lazy and
the slow. Their net averages
are from their brightest. Ours
include both the best and
those who barely get by. Our
schools. in general, hold back
our brightest and do make
them roughly two years be-
hind the best in Europe. Our
systems chief weakness per-
haps lies in this fact.

KEY WEST. Fla, May %
(AP) Navy divers, working
with difficulty under 430 feet
of water, searched the ocean
floor today for a Sunken object
detected by sonar equipment.
Rear Admiral Lloyd Muslin,
commanding the Key West
Naval Base, contradicted re-
ports that the Navy was hunt
ing a foreign submarine. He
said the object probably was a
sunken freighter.
The search centered 25 miles
southeast of Key West and 10
miles southeast of the Ameri-
can Shoals light.
Admiral Muslin said the
5,000-ton freighter Lake City
sank three miles northwest of
the spot shortly after World
War II.
The Lake City cannot now
be located with sonar, Admiral
Muslin said, and it is assumed
the wreck was moved by ocean
currents.
Contact with a large object
on the bottom was made Tues
day by the sensitive detection
apparatus on a mineSweeper.
Two minesweepers and the
submarine rescue vessel Pen
guin were detailed to investi-
gate and are still at the scene.
Admiral Muslin said the
sonar equipment, which bounces
sound impulses off any solid
object which they encounter,
showed the approximate loca-
ton of the target but only in
veStigation by divers could
reveal wnat it was.
The water is so deep, the
admiral said, that divers are
able tc remain on the bottom
no more than 10 minutes. 1t
then requires two hours to
bring them to the surface
slowly enough to safeguard
them against the bends-the
painful and sometimes fatal
result of quick release from
pressure.

will face a situation in which
they may reap the whirlwind.
They gave the coup de grace
to the regime of Syngman
Rhee without having taken
the precaution of looking to
a competent replacement.
Mr.. Rhee unquestionably
committed a number of err
rorS. of which confidence in
some of his dubious lieuten-
ants was not the least. What
many observers feared would
take place after his over
throw is now becoming un-
pleasantly obvious.
Huh Chung is a man of
the highest intellectual cali
ber. But he does not appear
to be a fighter. The student
revolution got out of hand
and the laudable purposes of
the rebellion-aS in so many
similar situations in other
countries in the paSt-appear
to be forgotten. Old personal
grievances are coming to the
fore. Witch hunts which
have little to do with the
original purposes of the stu
dent movement are now an
everyday occurrence.
But so long as the army
remained steady and unaf-

believe the situation would
deteriorate to the advantage
of the enemies of the free

Senator Mccarthy, Democrat
OF Minnesota, has raised the
question whether Government
paid employees of Vice President
Nixon also are active members
OF Mr.. Nixon's campaign COM
mittee.
In a brief Senate speech,
Senator Mccarthy referred
specially to Herbert G. Klein.
Mr.. Nixon'S press secretary.
He seems to be wearing two
hats" Senator Mccarthy said
OF Mr.. Klein. He speaks in
one minute as an official en-
ploye of the Government and
IN the next minute as though
ne were the campaign manager
Tor the Vice President.
I suggest If Mr.. Klein is
performing these two roles, this
is a matter of concern 70 the
Congress and to the Appropri-
ations Committee.
If he is doing it, there NAV
be other public officials whose
salaries are being paid by the
Government acting in the dual
role of official aides to the
Wee President and also as ac-
tive members of his campaign
committee"
Mr.. Klein is listed on Senate
payroll records as a special as
Sistant to the Vice President at
a salary of slightly more than
SIS, 900 a year.
Senator Mccarthy pinned
his remarks to a statement by
Mr.. Klein Thursday that Mr..
Nixon'S campaign aides are
looking into Democratic spend
ing in the May 10 West Vir-
ginia presidential primary in
which Senator Kennedy de-
feated Senator Humphrey.
