Senator Hits
Inauguration
Charity Issue

Senator Williams, Republic
can of Delaware, told the Sen
ate yesterday he had been in
formed some inaugural visitors
rented private homes here for
the week with the understand
ing that the rent paid would
go to charity.
The Senator suggested that
this arrangement would result
in allowing the expense Of at
tending the inaugural cere-
monies to be charged off as a
charitable contribution" for
tax purposes.
The Delaware Republican
said he wrote to Jay w. Glass
man, assistant to the Secretary
of the Treasury, putting the
matter up to him as a hypo-
thetical case.
Senator Williams placed in
the record q reply in which Mr..
Glassman said that:
"It does not seem that the
fact that the owner Of the
house Is willing to rent his
house and have the rental paid
to a charity designated by him
should give rise to a charitable
deduction to the tenant. The
rental paid would be consid-
cred income to the owner Of
the house who would be en-
titled to a charitable deduction
subject to the appropriate lin
itations upon the amount Of
the contribution which may be
claimed as a charitable deduc-
ton"

Governors Okoy
Tax Share Plan
By the Associated Press

A proposal by Gov. Michael
v. Disable Of Ohio to let States
have part Of the money col
lected for Federal income taxes
to spend on schools was ap-
proved yesterday by the exc
cutive committee Of the Gov
ernors' Conference.
Gov. DiSalle's resolution calls
for the Federal Government to
return to any state S per cent
of the Federal income tax COL
lected in that State.
The State, in turn, would
be required to spend 40 per
cent Of that money for operat-
ing and construction costs of
schools. Gradually. over a
period Of from 5 to 10 years,
1t would become mandatory for
the state to spend all Of the
money on schools.

phase OF his administration.
Presumably Secretary Of State
Dean Rusk has the same inten-
ton.
Diplomatic officials consider
1t probable, however, that by
May Mr.. Kennedy and Mr.. Rusk
may find it necessary to make
a quick trip to Europe for con-
sultation with allied govern
ment chiefs there prior to a
brief exploratory talk with Mr..
KhruShchev.
Facing Major Issues
Action along those lines looks
like the best bet for moves by
the new President, pending de-
velopment Of new or revised
proposals on such major issues
as the future Of Berlin and the
international reduction and
control of ornaments.
Mr.. Kennedy is understood to
be fully aware that although
he needs a breathing spell of
several months to work on the
big issues in East-Wes rela-
tons he cannot stand still for
long.
At least in the field Of diplo-
matte maneuver he must DEM
onstrate by action a desire to
get his new Quest for Peace"
underway. Otherwise he will
find the initiative once more
in Mr.. Khrushchev's hands.
The Soviet Premier, in fact,
has already made his first move.
He held a long discussion with
Ambassador Llewellyn Thomp-
son. evidently to relay to Mr..
Kennedy without delay his
views on world affairs.

Duncan Asks Study
On Lifting Relief Ban

Commissioner John B. Dun

Of lifting the restriction on
public aid to dependent chill

Is at home but unemployed.
This is one of the measures
he outlined for examination in
a projected refocuSing of the
Districts public assistance pro-
gram, which he reviewed in a
radio talk over station WWDC.
Mr.. Duncan said there now
Is administration, congressional
and citizen support on the side
of the Districts effort to put
added stress on rehabilitation
in public assistance.
With the development of
plans now up to the public
welfare staff, a special citizens
committee and the Department

would meanwhile turn his own
attention to health and cor
rectiOnS matters.
Not in January

fidence the District could serve
the rest of the Nation by show
ing the way to rehabilitating
more people and reducing well
fare costs. A program will
be developed and taken to
Congress. he said, perhaps not
by January. but in a reason
able length of time"
Among other things, he said
some provision should be made
for children of able e-bodied but
unemployed fathers, perhaps
help for the father in getting
a job along with assistance to
the family.
Under present rules if the
father is in the home, the fam
lily cannot receive public as
SiStance. Mr.. Duncan said
criticism had arisen over a few
cases where the father left
home to make it seem there
was no father there.
There is no reason why that
unemployed father has to go
to the trouble of leaving in
order to qualify his family"
Mr.. Duncan suggested. why
not help the whole family, and
at the same time help him to
get a job?"

Teacher Politicians?

Richard p Abells announced intention to run for
the Maryland House of Delegates raises serious
question the propriety Of teacher entering par
tisan politics without severing his teaching con-
nections.
This is not the first political experience in which
Mr.. Abel social studies instructor at Kensington
Junior High School, has been engaged. He Is former
delegate to the Democratic State Convention and
Democratic precinct chairman for several years.
These offices were part-time, however, and pre-
smably offered little distraction from his teach
ing duties But running for State office is going to
be fltme job by ITSELF let alone serving if elected
and we cannot see how Mr. Abel can teach and take to
the political hustings at the time. Nor can
visualize Mr. Abel retaining his mpartialty in the
classroom in the face of his partisan political activities
In the State Legislature.
This Is the cr1K Of the matter. It involves not
only Mr. Abel but any teacher who seeks to retain
the factual, objective atmosphere of the classroom
while deeply immersed in the heated, argumentative
and frequently exaggerated atmosphere Of partisan
politics.
This is not to say that teachers should be prohib-
tied from voicing opinions political issues or from
taking part in the affairs of their government Only
by encouraging the active interest Of all citizens can
we obtain and promote good government But this
interest must not be allowed to overwhelm the teach
er's function to advance fairness and truth in the
school.
II the teacher wants to support particular cause
by becoming political candidate, it seems to us he
should leave the classroom and not try to keep his feet
in both camps This is exactly what several of our
more prominent national legislators have done. They
include Senator Paul Douglas Democrat of Illinois,
former political science professor; Senator Gale Nc
Gee, Democrat, of Wyoming, also former college
professor and Chairman Fulbrght of the Senate For
egn Relations Committee former Rhodes scholar
and college president
When these men decided to enter partisan poll
tics, they went all the way. They didn't try to lead
schzophrenc life by holding onto their teaching posi-
tons on the one hand and becoming active political
candidates on the other.

The Mud-BoII Express

Scene: The Heavenly Angels, are sitting
in the Celestial Library reading whatever
appeals to them. Some are reading a journal
from their rival Hereafter called the Plutonian
Journal; others are reading various scratch
sheets and dream books Some worried look
ing ones with wilted wings are reading law
books. The general air of the library, al.
though rarified is one of peace and content
ment Into this place of tranquility bursts a
Heavenly Messenger who is affectionately
called by his brother and sister angels, THE
Mud-Ball Express" This is because he is the
courier between the Planet Earth and Heaven.
His duty is to keep the Angels posted on the
happenings on Earth and, if they viii listen,
the meanderings of the inhabitants in the
fertile plains of Mungummery County.
First Heavenly Angel, addressing THE
Mud-Ball Express" "You look i'll, you have
just returned from that piece of ground
upon the mud-ball which lies between Wash.
ington and Frederick. What is the news
from our cultured cousins?"
The Mud.Ball Express: There is book
called the Ides Of Capricorn from which
stencil has arisen that even now assaults the
bastians of our domain"
Second Heavenly Angel: "Mudball, you
always did talk in the superIative; but don't
be frlghtful bore and beat our ears about
the book. Enough is enough, and from this
time forward the Boss has declared that all
columns, cocktail talk in the Heavenly Nectar
Bar, all articles, editorials, legal opinions,
although there are no lawyers up here to
write them, win be and hereby are forever
banned within the Heavenly Hall as offensive
to our senses"

angel sing, Mud-Ball, now shut up unless you
have some funny story to tell US from the
goings and the comings of the denizens of

DR.. Elizabeth Wilson's comments on the desir-
ability Of calling halt to further experimentation in
Montgomery County's school system should come as
welcome news to the growing number of parents who
have been alarmed over the emphasis on educational
innovations at the expense of basic learning skils.
Coming as it does from the acting director of the
Office of Curriculum Development, the observation
that experimentation is reaching the saturaton point
is bound to carry considerable weight with School
Board members
We have no doubt that DR.. Wilson's recommends
ton to polish up new procedures rather than to en-
bark on new will be opposed by those administra-
tors who regard schools primarily laboratories in
which to try out new theories of education It is this
group which has consistently opposed any and all eff
forts to return schools to their primary function Of
training the mind.
The findings of the Curriculum Study Committee
have shown concusively the need for drastic changes
in teaching such basic subjects reading spelling and
mathematics 1t Is obvious in the light of the learning
defects which have been brought to light by the
mittee, that immediate steps be taken to improve
teaching methods For this reason alone any propos-
al to continue experiments in education while neglect
ing the correction Of learning mistakes should be
jected by the School Board
But there is also another reason-money With
taxes rising constantly Montgomery County citizens
simply cannot afford the luxury of additional expert
mentation. While they have never questioned their
obligation to provide the best possible schools and
teachers for their children county taxpayers are
titled to get their moneys worth; and there is consd
cradle doubt that continued new, untred experiments
of any real value in promoting the kind Of educa-
ton the children need, and their parents deserve.
Another piece Of gratifying news comes from
School Supt c. Taylor Whittier In the form of rec
ommendation for intensified reading English and
mathematics instruction.
Dr. Whittier also proposes to set up a specially
trained teacher corps in reading.
All of this Is most encouraging and signifies, we
hope, trend toward sounder educational policies
than have been evident here in the past
