who apparently misunderstood a
main point of the book.
The New York Times suggested
that "Dr. Conant may underesti-
mate the psychological importance
of even token equality"
Integration strictly for the sake
of integration is not the essential
Issue, DR.. Conant says. The prob
lem in all schools is not to split
hairs about the aims of education,
but to look at individual schools
on the basis Of the socio-economic
situation of the Families it serves.
Woshington's Policy
Separation of white and Negro
children because of the neighbor-
hood in which they live is not,
per Sc. evidence Of inequality in
education. The pressing need is
to improve the Negro neighbor-
hood school with more staff and
money, not to transport students
on the assumption that Negro edu-
cation will be improved only by
going to school with white chill
dren.
In Washington, Supt. Carl F.
Hansen will have no part of this
latter assumption. Policy here al
lows children to transfer from
overcrowded schools to others
where vacancies exist, as in
Georgetown. but transportation is
up to the pupils.
Furthermore. DR.. Conant is the
last person to recommend re
stricting" Negro children to slum
neighborhood schools. This infer
ence was made in press reports of
CONNER from Secretary of
Health, Education and Welfare
Ribicoff.
In the matter of grouping by
ability in mixed schools, DR.. Co.
nant cites the track" system used
in the District and st. Louis. He
points out that with track syS-
TENS generally, the problem of
de facto segregation by ability is
likely to occur. School officials
here have taken pains to see that
pupils with appropriate course
background. and with the approx
al of their principals, can grad
uate" from track, making the
system as flexible as possible. DR..
Conant favorS as much elective"
elbowroom in a students curricu-
lum as possible with proper guild
ance.

Quotations

The open mind never acts:
When we have done our utmost
to arrive at a reasonable conclu-
sion, we still, when we can reason
and investigate no more, must
close our minds for the moment
with a snap, and act dogmatically
on our conclusions. The man who
waits to make an entirely rea-
sonable will dies intestate.-
George Bernard Shaw in the Pref
ace to Androcles and the Lion.
Those who speak most Of prog
ress measure it by quantity and
not by quality; how many people
read and write, or how many peo-
pie there are, or what is the an
nual value of their trade: whereas
true progress would rather lie in
reading or writing fewer and bet
ter things, and being fewer and
better men and enjoying life more.

ents indifferent II not hostile to

may have much in its favor; the
systetm Of rigid tracks may be

mammoth guidance problem"
Know the Focts'
The wealthy suburbs are some
thing else again, a situation which
applies to Washington's. A crucial
problem here is the pressure on
children to get to college. Says
DR.. Conant:
The parent whose college am
bitions outrun his child's abilities
should be guided toward "a real
istic picture of the kind Of college
his child is suited for" DR.. Con-
nant points out that If 1t is adviS-
able for a student to go to college,
there is college program to fit
virtually every ability level.
Parents and children should be
guided in the realities Of college
admission. and competition for it..
Furthermore the prestige COL
leges" should be regarded as for
very bright students" the ma
jority of whom go on to advanced
degrees. This suggestion may
rankle in certain quarters, but it
is rapidly becoming a fact, GER
tainly in the Ivy League.
The California system embody-
ing junior colleges as an extension
of the secondary education system
should be looked over carefully in
trying to solve the college prob
lem. Locally, there have been
sharp enrolment jumps at Mont
gomery County Junior College,
and Prince Georges Community
College.
'Neighborhood by neighbor-
hood" DR.. Conant concludes, we
need to know the facts. and when
these facts indicate a dangerous
social situation the American
people should be prepared to take
prompt action before it is too
late"

The U. Ms 18th Anniversary
Finds 1t Facing Serious Changes

Burma, the favorite, have refused
to take the job at the hands
Of the Assembly, knowing this
would guarantee Soviet harraSs-
ment.
Russia, therefore, safe from the
threat of an end run, has been
able to concentrate its defenses
behind. the center Of the line.
1t has made extreme demands
and then retreated from them
slowly, extracting conferences
sions at each step.
The result is that no success
Sor to Mr.. HammarSkjold will
have the same freedom of action,
the same authority, that he
had. How long it will take to
demonstrate that this is unwork-
able, no one can say.
Krishna Menon is becoming a
kind of symbol of the post Ham
marskjold U. N. The likely impact
of this U. N. on the West was
illustrated last week when he in
troduced and won impressive sup
port for a new and again wholly
uninspected moratorium on nu-
clear-weapons testing.
The Test Series
Russia is likely to have fin
iShed its test series with Pre-
mier KhruShchev's 50-megaton
bang by the time this resolution
is passed. while the United States
may well not have finished its
testing. Moreover, President Ken
nedy has made clear that the
United States never again will
accept an uncontrolled test ban.
The United States therefore
may we'll find itself, for the first
time in history, defying a u. N.
mandate.
Without American financial
support. the U. N. quickly would
go bankrupt. Will the American
people be sophisticated enough to
accept and support, through a
critical period Of cropping and
fumbling. an organization which
does not always demonstrably
serve the American national in
terest?
Supporters point out that the
U. N. is still a safety value for
dangerous tensions, still a useful
mirror of the world, still a forum
for West as well as East. 1t
still can hasten the maturity and
responsibility Of new nations, still
can do much to eliminate social
and economic causes of war.
Whether this will be persua-
sive remains to be seen. If the
West does stick with the ship.
u. N. people believe the vessel
will come into port perhaps for
its 18th anniversary, perhaps for
its Goth stronger and sounder
than ever.

There is indecision on the Con-
go. Having failed in an earlier
effort to end the secession of Ka-
tanga, the U. N. now is tempted
to come to terms permanently
with Noise Tshombe and depend
upon persuasion and negotiation
to reunite the country.
The Africans are protesting. 1t
is essential, they say. to act Wig
orously against TShombe before
civil war and communism sweep
back into the Congo. They are not
even willing for the U. N. dis
creetly to buy time in which to
rebuild its strength. Damn the
torpedoes, say Congolese Premier
Cyrille Adoula and his friends;
full speed ahead.
What to do? Short Of a fT-us-
trating and divisive debate in the
Security Council or General AS
sembly, there is no one with au-
thority to decide. The U. N. needs
an executive, q secretary general.
Some Divided Counsel
But in this area, too, there is
timidity and divided counsel. v. K.
Krishna Menon. the Indian de-
fense minister, has popularized
theory that no major issue can
or should be decided in the u. N.
without prior great-power agree
ment.
Accepting this assumption, a
majority has SHE'D away from

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.-The
United Nations celebrates its 10th
birthday Tuesday under some of
the most explosive preSsures it
ever has sustained.
A major crisis is building up in
Katanga. Red China may be on
the U. Ms doorstep. The Or
ganization has no secretary gen.
eral. more than a month after
Dag Hammarskjold's death.
Bankruptcy looms large on the
horizon.
Where is the U. N. headed?
Can it ever recover the momen-
tum and authority it had under
Mr.. HammarSkjold: Or will it
degenerate into a mere debating
society reflecting primarily the
views of the new and inexperi-
enced?
No one can be sure. But the
best judgment, from all the
known facts is that the U. N.
will pass through a period of rel
active eclipse for one, two, per-
haps five years until the new
majority learns from experience
the consequences of having this

This period will not be an
easy one for the West. There is
likely to be repeated Illustration,
embarrassment, and even injury
for the United States and it's
allies, beginning with an appeal
for a new, uninspected morato-
rum on nuclear-weapons testing.
American critics of the U. N.
who, like the Conn munists,
have long been out for the U. Ms

They will demand that the United

But sooner or later-perhaps
sooner, If a transcendent crisis
puts the world on the brink Of
atomic war-the small-power ma
jority is likely to see that a
strong U. N. is in their inter-
est. Then, remembering what it
was becoming under Mr.. Ham,
marskjold, they may set out to
rebuild it in his image.
For the last month. the U. N.
has been running largely on Mr..

The Nation will have to fish
or cut bait TO relieve explosive
pressures of teeming youth
trapped in big-city slums, includ-
ing Washington's. according to
DR.. James Bryant Conant.
Frankly, he adds. schools and
job opportunities are woefully un-
equal to the task.
The apples are likely to fall
for some time after the shaking,
DR.. Conant, former Harvard presi-
dent. gives the educational Or
chard in "Slums and Suburbs: A
Commentary on Schools in Met
ropolitan Areas" new book
published by McGraw Hill last
week. Social dynamite" is at
hand if steps are not taken in
the school systems to give slum
children a way out Of their grim
socio-economic situation, DR..
Conant declares. What he pro-
poses to do about Slum areas, in
which more than half the age
group 1921 may be out Of work
has already drawn a drumfire OF
response.
DR.. Conant emerged thoroughly
alarmed after studying the "ap-
palling" difficulties Of the situa-
ton in Negro and white slums
alike, and particularly the Negro,
here and in New York, Chicago,
st. Louis, Philadelphia and Detroit
Blame for Porents, Too
He was no happier with the
stark contrast between the slums
where some children have no
place to sleep, let alone to learn
to read, and the suburbs where
parents press less able children
to go to a prestige college.
"The contrast in money avail
able to the schools in a wealthy
suburb and to the schools IN a
large city jolts ones notions OF
the meaning Of equality OF op-
portunity." DR.. Conant writes.
A teacher in a Slum school, ne
points out, faces every conceivable,
social and economic obstacle to
instruction. Yet suburban schools
may spend as much as 81 900 per
pupil, and have as many as 10
professional people per thousand
pupils. Compare this, he says, with
a pupil expenditure Of less than
$500 in some slum schools, and
40 professionals per thousand.
Advocates More Money
Starting with more money for
slum schools, DR.. Conant would:
Give the schools responsibility
for educational and vocational
guidance of youth to age 81. (He
recommends the creation Of 300,-
900 jobs Immediately in Federally
financed urban public works.
Use Federal funds to open en-
ployment opportunities stifled by
what he sees as the discriminatory
attitude of employers and unions
alike.
Train more teachers for slum
schools and perhaps give them
more pay.
Decentralize school adminiStra-
ton with supervisors for neigh
borhood districts to fit schools
better to the local situation.
Spend more money and up
grade Negro schools, many of
which are in slums, rather than
to effect token integration by
transporting pupils across attend
