be hopelessly crippled.
DR.. Feffer said the Saigon
surgeons are good and that a
two year training program
would probably turn out COM
petent bone specialists.
When he had treated enough
patients to free IL to IS beds,
he asked, ANY more patients?"
YES" one doctor said.
There must be at least 10000
more" 1t was then more than
at any time that the Feffers
realized the need for orthopedic
surgeons in this country to ro-
tate through Saigon.
Civilian Casualties
Curiously, the casualties DR..
Feffer treated were from the
civilian militia - not regular
army casualties. They went to
army hospitals.
But. toward the end, he be-
gan treating captured Conlmu-
mist casualties too.
II felt that If I took good
care of a Red prisoner" he
said, the man wouldn't be a
Red any more"
The American orthopedic
surgeons don't expect to treat
the countless casualties, chill
dren and others in need. They
plan to train as many Wet
Namese surgeons as possible to
do it themselves,
That this attitude is appreci-
ated was shown by the throng
OF people at the airport to bid
the Feffers farewell at the end
Of their months stay. Even
those who at first were Sus-
picious had changed, the Fef-
fers recalled.

Kennedy Proposes Another Increase In Social Security

WASHINGTON R - President Kennedy today proposed still an. other increase in Social Security taxes to provide more benefits ir some cases and to extend cover age to additional workers.
 The changes Kennedy proposed would require an increase of one- fourth of one per cent in Social Security taxes levied against both workers and employers.
 Kennedy did not estimate the cost of the suggested tax increase.
 Kennedy recently proposed an- other increase of the same amount to finance the new administra- tion's plans for health insurance.
 Remedy proposed:
 l.Increase from the present $34 a month to $43 the minimum benefit payable.
 2. Reduce the age at which men are eligible for retired benefits from the current 65 to 62. The benefits for those who claim them before the age of 65 would be re- duced.
 3. Change the proportion of time which an insured person must work under Social Security to be eligible for retirement bene- fits. This would be liberaliZed to provide that workers put in one quarter of each year, or three months, in covered work for each four quarters.

WASHINGTON R - President Kennedy today proposed a $5.7 billion id-to-education program designed to set "a new standard of excellence in education" avail able to all who are willing and able to pursue it."
 In a special message to Con- gress, the President called for
 A three-year program of out right grants to the states for use in building classrooms or raising teachers salaries. It would pro- vide an average of $19.75 for each child in average daily attendance in public elementary and second ary schools the first year, increas- ing to an average of $2422 the third year. Total cost $23 bill lion.
 A five-year program of college scholarships, averaging $700 each with an additional $350 to col leges and universities for each ScholarSh1p winner enrolled. There would be 25,O00 scholarships the first year, 37,500 the second, and 50,000 thereafter. Total cost: $577.5 million.
 Continuation of the 10-year-old program of long-term, low inter est loans to colleges and univer- sites for dormitory construction, at a rate of $25O million a year for five years. Total cost: $1.3 billion.
 Establishment of a similar loan program for the construction of college classrooms, libraries, la boratories and other academic facilities, at the rate of $500 mil lion a year for five years. Total cost: $1.5 billion.
 No funds were recommended

 Aid-to-Education Program Designed To Set a New Standard of Excellence

for constructing schools or pay ing church school teachers sal aries. But no distinction was made between public aod private institutions regarding colle scholarships and loans to colleges.
 Senate Minority Leader Everett Dirksen announced he was ready with Republican substitute for Kennedy's education program.
 Dirksen's measure is four-year $2 billion proposal. Federal aid, to be matched by the states, would be limited to construction of class rooms.
 House Speaker Sam Rayburn, opposes contributions to teachers salaries.
 The President told Congress, "this is modest program with ambitious goals"
 It does, indeed, fall far short of the recommendation he re- ceived from his special task force on education last month, and short even of the aid to education bill which died in Congress last year after passage in the Senate.

Two Airlines Shutdown; 74,OOO Face LayOffs

NEW YORK R - Two big air. lines ordered a complete shut down today under the impact of a wildcat strike by relatively small union. Operations of -four other lines were heavily curtail- ed. About 74,000 employees faced layoffs.
 The staggering effects, build ing up from four-day-old walk out of flight engineers, forced one of the most widespread stop pages in commercial aviation his tory.
 American Airlines and Trans World Airlines, two of the na- tion's biggest air carriers, an- nounced they will halt all flight operations at midnight.
 They sent furlough notices to most of their 44,O0O employees - only those needed for house. keeping functions were to be kept on.
 Pan American also said it was laying of all its 10000 employees in a move that will shut down all it's flights - except possibly two Tuesday. The tide of layoffs plan ned by three other airlines would bring the total to 75,000.
 The union itself, the Flight En- gineer International Union, has $500 members.
 The engineers are protesting Feb. 6 decision by the National Mediation Board ordering them and another union, the Air Lines Pilots Assn, to hold an election for a single bargaining agent.
 The engineers, outnumbered by pilots, claim the decision could wipe out their union - and pos sibly their jobs.
