Dear Doris:

Dear Doris:
| have Just finished
reading Campus Chatter.
II told about a Catholic
high school beating the
school that | 60 TO. We
played them q week be-
fore this game and ! as a
Catholic was never SO en-
barrassed. The kids from
my town we're cussed and
booed. ! have never seen
such an exhibitionl
What should | tell the
kids ! go TO school with7
II would have been diff
ferent If il was Just a
few but IL was practically
the whole school.

Catholic schools are filled
with young Americans who
attend for the excellence of
the courses, the superior and
devoted teachers and the very
real Catholic training and
philosophy. These things can
hardly be judged at a ball
game.
IN THE COMPETITION Of
. close and exciting game
aren't cheers and boos taken
for granted? However, if the
craftsmanship and behavior
Of the school was as bad as
your letter indicated the fac
ulty noticed it too. Disciplin-
airy action would be taken, If
necessary, to prevent such an
exhibition" from happening
again.
You are not expected, Judi,
TO defend everything another
Catholic or Catholic SehooI
does. We are all human, with
strengths and weaknesses.
Your public school friends
realize this, so there's no need
for being embarrassed.

u RESPONSIBILITY -COOPERATION
SOME l M AGO a group of citizens expressed their
d%isapproval of the appointment Of DR.. Pedro Sanchez as Com
missioner Of Education for these Islands. The main contention
made was that there are qualified natives to fill the position,
and that therefore the Government should not have gone all
the way to Guam to tmd a Commissioners.
THERE IS NOTHING wrong with a group of citizens
petitonlng the Government, OF obectng to what they consider
to be not IN the best interests OF these Islands, The only trouble
With this objection is that it came too late, and with too little
force and effect. 1t is the same old story.
CARE HAS to be taken to avoid getting into the
position where we object on too weak grounds and therefore
cannot sustain our position. The argument that there must be
a native in every position is not sound enough to bring the
results we seek. There has to be more than that.
IN III CASE of Commissions, it will be recalled that
the position had been offered to natives; that they had decin-
ed, and that the Government then had to accept applications
elsewhere. So that in the best interests Of the department, a
selection had to be made, and the Government did the best
it could. Nor is this to say that it picked a commissioner who is
not qualified. By no means. This is merely to say that had the
choice been available near at hand, that choice would have
been made.
IT MUST Also BE remembered that any appointment
made by the Governor is subject to confirmation by the Sen
ate, SO that our elected leaders also have a responsibility, which
bring us to another important point. We must let our legsla-
tors know long enough in advance what we want, and do not
want, and seek their cooperation and support
FINALLY, EVEN though there is opposition to the ap-
pointment, it would be childish, and detrimental to our own
best interests not to give the fullest support and cooperation
to the Commissioner. That would be cutting off our nose to
spite our face, and that we do not want to do. We owe our
selves the duty to do the best we can for our system.
WHAT WE NEED to do is prepare ourselves for the
future, so that there be no more dissatisfaction. That is our
responsibility

ter of huge, misshapen slabs from the
park plan and proceed with the develop
ment on the same site of formal pub
lie garden"-a true Giving memorial"
Such scenic park, lying along the
Tidal Basin from the Lincoln Memorial
to the Jefferson Memorial, would con-
form to FDR'S expressed desire to have
Americas natural resources protected
as the rightful heritage of all the peo-
pie"
Under the McDowell-Douglas plan,
u acres fronting on the Tidal Basin
already reserved for an FDR memorial
would first be cleared of the unSightly
temporary barracks left over from
World War II and then would be trans
formed into gardens of flowers, trimmed
hedges and walks. Provision would be
made for unpretentiouS statuary or
other sculpture conSonant with the sur
roundingS.
Representative Mcdowell aptly
summed up the case against the con-
troverSial slab design when he said:
What irony to destroy parklands in the
name of one of the greatest champions
of parks the people have ever known
a man who specifically asked for a SIM
pie memorial"

Who OKd It?

Yesterdays Star carried story on
Page One of how our soldiers in Berlin
had been used to provide the proper
warlike atmosphere for a Jack Paar
televiSion show. A telephone call to
Assistant Secretary Sylvester at the
Pentagon to find out who was
responsible for such misunderstanding
Stupidity-was pleasantly rewarded by
quick discovery that our query to Mr.
Sylvester already had been preceded by
Mr.. SylveSter'S own launching of an
inquiry into the incident, supported by
Secretary Salinger at the White House.
Their indignation, as expressed in most
effective if unprintable rhetoric, was
entirely adequate.
We do not know who authorized
our troops in Berlin to provide added
color for Mr.. Paar'S commercial tele-
vision discussion of the Berlin crisis. We
hope the Pentagon will find out and
crack down-hard! But the incident, in
our opinion, lends eloquent justification
to Secretary McNamara'S efforts to
confine the official activities of the
military to traditional roles. If any
responsible military commander gave
his sanction to a demonstration of
military force in Berlin, for the purpose
of furnishing atmosphere for a Paar
television show, he is obviously lacking
the judgment that should accompany
his assignment.

New p. u. c. Member

In picking James A. Washington,
a Howard University law professor, to
succeed George E. c. Hayes as a member
of the District Public Utilities Commits
sion, President Kennedy has filled a
months-old vacancy on an agency that
should be kept at full strength (three
members) at all times. The commission
had felt the loss of Mr. Hayes services
keenly, for, although without utilities
experience when appointed to the first
of his two terms, he had proved to be
valuable member.
AS in the case of the Hayes appoint
ment by President Eisenhower, Professor
Washington lacks experience in the
field of transit control and similar
matters coming before the PUG, but
if he is as successful in learning his
responsibilities and fulfilling them as
Mr. Hayes was, he should have no
difficulty. His general qualifications,
of course, will be considered by the
Senate, which must confirm the
appointment.

information continuously to

especially to provide physio-
logical information on pilots
while they are flying re-
search aircraft and space
vehicles.
PreSSures are recorded by
means of a cuff placed over
the brachiai artery, the chief
artery of the upper arm,
with a sampling time cor
responding to seven to ten
heart beats. Pressure from
this cuff can be applied once
a minute without any danger
of damage to the artery it
self. according to the report
of Col. Andres I. Karstens,
associate director of the
Forces Aerospace Medical
Laboratory.
Noises Eliminated
1t long has been realized
that blood pressure changes
are highly probable but
means of measuring them as
they take place have been
lacking. Both SyStolic and
diastolic pressures are meas
ured with the new apparatus.
Changes from speed to
speed and altitude to altitude
are likely to be extremely
minute and hence give rise
to very faint signals which
may be completely masked
by noise" arising either in
the artery itself or in the
direct environment. Getting
rid of this noise has been
the most difficult part of
producing such a device in
the past.
1t now has been overcome,
Col. KarStens says, by de-
velopment of extremely deli
cate mechanisms.
Although the device has
been tested experimentally,
no results are given in the
Air Force report. Many trials
will be necessary before pos
sible individual idioSyncracies
of pilots can be eliminated.
The blood ressure
changes, it is stressed, may
be extremely important for
future space navigators.

Unhappy Motoring

My husband and I had just
returned from 1000 miles Of
driving in the United States
and Canada when we read
the letter from G. Sawyer
regarding trucks on our
highways and their menace
to passenger cars, air pollu-
ton. etc.
These trucks seem to get
larger and larger and some
as large as a railroad freight
car (seemingly) were passing
us, with no adherence what
soever to speed regulations.
Do the radar speed-control
stations just close their eyes
to truck violations and con-
centrate on passenger cars?
The Pennsylvania turnpike
has been turned into a ter
rifying stretch of highway
by weaving trucks in great
numbers, and some of the
other turnpikeS are almost
as bad. BY comparison the
TranS-Canada highway was
relatively free of truck traf-
fic, driving was a pleasure,
and the Canadian railways
are prosperous.
Oh, happy day, If, as Mr..
Sawyer suggests, our high
ways could be relieved of the
"belching black smoke of
diesel trucks" freight hauling
could go back to the rail-
roads where it belongs and
get them out of the red, and
our highways, freed of these
dangerous juggernautS, would
be easier to maintain and
considerably safer for pas
senger traffic and light,
short-haul trucking.

Power of SUGGESTION?

crisis and the consequent imperative
that the productivity and strength of
our basic economy should not now be
weakened by major work stoppageS or
by new round of dollar destroying
initiation, President Kennedy in recent
days has taken timely and unusual
action on behalf of industrial peace and
price stability. Final results are not yet
recorded.
On two occasions, at his news con-
ference last week and in letters to the
top steel companies made public yes
terday, Mr.. Kennedy has expressed
strongly the hope that steel wage
increases scheduled for October / will
not be accompanied by off-setting in
creaSes in steel prices. Earlier this week
he interviewed personally at critical
hour in the General Motors-UAW
negotiations to ask for an agreement
which would be fair and reasonable ito
both shareholders and workers" and
which would preserve price stability in
the industry. In each instance, either
by word or by clear implication, world
tensions and national security were in
voked as the matters of prime concern.
In the case of the automobile
negotiations, General Motors and the
JAW have announced agreement on all
major points since Mr. Kennedy'S
intervention. Details, as made public
in part today, show that they include
continuance of annual wage increases
and cost of living allowances,
frightening of unemployment COM
pensation coverage and improvement in
several fringe benefits. 1t is expected
that the GIN formula will set the pattern
for agreement with Ford and Chrysler,
and that the danger of a major auto
strike has been averted. It is too early
to tell, however, whether the costs of
this settlement are to be passed on
through higher prices on cars. This is
question, in fact, which may still have
to wait the decision of the steel industry
about its price structure-Since any
broad increase in steel costs is bound to
affect the auto makers.
To that industry, Mr.. Kennedy held
out an unusual carrot" in his appeal
for price restraint. If the industry
forgoes a price increase this year, he
pointed out, it would enter collective
bargaining negotiations, scheduled for
next spring, with a record of 31a years
of price stability. In this case, he added,
"it would clearly then be the turn of
the labor representatives to limit wage
demands to level consistent with price
stability" The question, of course, is
whether the steelworkers union would
see its responsibility in this Lighter
whether, if necessary, the adminiStra
ton would be willing next spring to
throw further weight on the side of
labor restraint
In saying what he has about steel
and auto prices, President Kennedy has
placed high premium on management
Self-restraint in these two industries.
Their own statistics may not jibe with
his on the possibilities of operating at
profit under the higher costs of new
labor contracts. In any case, mainte-
nance of stable price structure is not
the exclusive responsibility of manage
ment. Mr.. Kennedy should be sure, if
he can, that labor leadership and his
own administration are accepting their
share Of this responsibility.

Evils of NeutroIism

The somber report on the
unaligned nations conference
at Belgrade by The Stars
Crosby S. Moves should en-
tighten our fuzzy-thinkers at
the U. N. and the State De-
partment on the evils of
"neutralism."
Mr.. Moves makes it clear
that the so-called uncom-
mitted nations are simply
pro-Communists camouflaged
in another birds plumage.
The billions of dollars Of for
eign aid and military assist
ance we have lavished on
Yugoslavia's Tito, midas
Nehru, Ghana's Nkrumah,
and IndoneSia's Sukarno, to
say nothing of Laos and
: Brazil, is largely an exercise
in cutting our own throat. AS
Mr.. Noyes so ably points out.
neutralism shows a pro-Com-
munist double-standard. The
Is neutraliSt nations at the
Belgrade Conference have
failed to denounce Russia for
reSuming nuclear tests in the
atmosphere or for negotiating
in bad faith these past three
years at the Geneva confer
ence on nuclear tests, while
all the while developing new
atomic weapons to be tested
when ready. But they have
engaged in an unrelieved at
tack on the United States
and all that We have done for
the cause of freedom.
Henceforth the Unite d
States must adopt a new
policy on foreign aid. Cen
erous aid and military assist
ance for our allies and
friends, yes; for neutraliStS,
no. 1t is now clear that every
dollar of foreign aid that goes
from the United States to a
neutralist is a contribution to
our own doom.
The Kennedy administration
should characterize neutral
ism for what it in reality is
anti-American and pro-Rus-
sian, through and through.
From now on we should give
the neutral nations what they
give us-the back of the
hand. If our Government
continues to grovel before
the neutralists after the Bel
grade performance, the in
jury they do us will be richly
deserved.
We can we'll recall the
words of Theodore Roosevelt
that "it is a wicked thing to
be neutral between right and
wrong. Impartiality does not
mean neutrality. Impartial
justice consists not in being
neutral between right and
wrong, but in finding out
the right and upholding it
wherever found, against the
wrong"
Carl L. Shipley,
Chairman, Republican State
Committee for D. C.
