"They will not listen to the

On week ends the ''rural-devel-

They survey the land, draw up

A TypicOI Poroeroph
During Grants first term, Walt
on coming back from one of his
Brooklyn vacations, dropped by
The Star Building and left what is
a typical piece. BY that time the
editor would put the paragraph
wherever Whitman wanted it, even
at the head Of the editorial column

In addition to straightforward
ness, Admiral Burke has two other
outstanding attributes-personal
integrity and a superlative skill
in the exercise Of leadership and
in the use of authority.
The thing he perhaps has
stressed most within the Navy

national episode with these little

after the loss of the Government
job he and his fiery friend O'Con-
nor decided that the big hope for
Whitman'S work lay in finding
a foreign audience, like Robert
Frost after him did, which would
mirror his worth back to Amer
lea. The interest that Swinburne
and Rossetti showed, and the
Danes and French, was stimu-
lated in every possible way. Fa-

Whitman made their way with
amazing rapidity into the edi-

The War of the Critics
The American press listened
casually for a few years to a
steady stream of this. Finally
Walt, who had become paralyzed
and moved to Camden, brought
the English press crashing down
on the American public in their
Centennial year, 1876. American
critics responded with vigor and
vinegar, and Walt, feeding both
sides with all the fuel he had,
brought the matter to a boil in
a pitched battle by cable, 81

At 3 o'clock Tuesday afternoon,
in the Naval Academy Field House
in Annapolis, a 42-year-old con-
tract of love-the one between Ar
leigh Burke and the United States
Navy-expires.
For, at that time, the highly
popular veteran of dozens of
battles at sea and ashore will turn
over his command" as Chief of
Naval Operations to Admiral
George w. Anderson and retire to
private life.
Arleigh Burke, a farm boy"
from Boulder, Colo, entered the
Naval Academy in 1919 and has
served his country and the Navy
continuously ever since
Through the "scrap-the-fleet"
disarmament days of the 20s;
the war against Japan as "31-
knot" Burke, leader of famed De-
stroyer Squadron %; the revolt
of the admiralS" against efforts to
cut down naval aviation; the
Korean truce talks in the tents at
Panmunjom as Vice Admiral joys
deputy and, finally, through six
years as CNO and member of the
Joint Chiefs of Staff-a record
length of service in each instance.
Doqwoods and Anchors
In farewell interview in his
Pentagon office, the Admiral
reminisced with enjoyment. When
asked what he rated as his out
standing achievement as CNO, he
first replied as if to fend the
question.
Planting those dogwood trees
at the Naval Observatory and
putting the anchors out 'front.'" he
said with a smile.
Then he turned serious. There
are, he said, these two areas in
which the Navy has progressed
sharply since 1855:
. In weapons and equipment,
such as surface-to-air guided mis-
siles, the increased use of nuclear
power for ship. propulsion and the
creation of the remarkable Polaris
system, which wed the ballistic
missile to the atomic submarine to
give the Nation its most certain
strategic deterrent.
. The increased realization, by
the public, by the Government and
even by naval officers themselves,
of the need for seapower in-being.
Cites Lebanon Session
The admiral is quick to ac-
knowledge that world events played
the major part in this new aware
ness of the Importance of Ameri-
can domination of that 20 per
cent of the globe that is salt
water.
"The Lebanon and Formosa
Strait crises of 1858 were dramatic
demonstrations of the application
of American seapower," he said.
Admiral Burke has a we'll
deserved reputation for forth
rightness. His critics, who are
mostly bureaucrats, old or new,
say he is "too" fortnight. What
does he think of such a sugges-
ton?

BOGOTA, Colombia. - Colom-
bia is not just waiting for the
arrival of the American Peace
Corps here-it is training its own
Peace Corps" as well.
When the Americans arrive
here in September, they will be
Joined by Colombian teammates.
They will probably be sent, one
Colombian and one American in
pairs, to live in villages in the
western part of the country with
small farming and coffee grow
ing campesinos (peasantS).
Unlike the American Peace
Corps members who finish their
six-week training period at Rut-
gers University at the end of
August, the so Colombians have
been hard at work since February
at an experimental agricultural
station outside this capital city.
Officially they are experts in
social-rural development"
A Boot-Strup Program
The Colombians, who are be-
tween the ages of 10 and 35, were
chosen last year to be trained as
their country's first rural devel-
opers in Colombia's boot-strap
program known as "Accion
Communal"
All are high school graduates.
Thirteen have studied at least one
year in a university. Most are
from Colombia's small but grow
ing middle class.
They represent every part Of
the nation-the dark skins from
the tropical lands of the Atlantic
and Pacific coasts; the high cheek
bones and Indian features from
the mountainous mining regions
south of Bogota, and the tall,
white Spanish descendants from
Antioquia.
A typical day for the Colom-
blanS begins at am. at the
modern brick-and-concrete agri-
cultural station known as Tabai-
tata. Thirty students arrive by
bus from Bogota and 20 walk
from their living quarters in the
neighboring community Of Funsa.
Study Peasant Psychology
The morning lectures are held
in a modern class room on the
second floor of the stations main
building. The Colombian corps
studies first aid; how to teach
reading and writing, the psychol-
ogy of the campesino and modern
agricultural techniques.
America is a frequent meal
time topic. "Is the United States
really interested in Colombian"
and do they really want to
help?" an American observer was
asked.
