Dr.. McMurrin
BarsU. ). Rule
Over Schools
BY JOHN ROSSON
Star Staff Writer

PHILADELPHIA, May g.
United States Commissioner OF
Education Sterling M. McMur-
rim today invited any Ameri-
cans seeing evidence that the
Federal Government is con-
trolling public schools to report
the case to his office.
The commissioner, addressing
1000 delegates at the 2lst an
nual convention of the Ma
tional School Boards in Con-
vention Hall, implied he would
put an end to it.
He was apparently referring
to anticipated passage Of a
Federal school aid bill this
spring.
DR.. McMurrin, a Kennedy ap-
pointee, is a strong supporter
of Federal aid as outlined by
the Administration. Thus he
faced a potentially hostile au-
dience. The Association yester-
day voted it's opposition to
further expansion of Federal
assistance, basing its position
on fear of government con-
troll at the local level"
OppOses Federal Control
The commissioner apparent
ly allayed some of those fears.
II am strongly opposed to
Federal control of education"
he told the delegates. land I
have no indication from any
official in Washington that the
intention is to control the
schools.
I'VE would welcome anyone
telling us about such interven-
ton. Any such evidence, either
now or in the future, would be
welcome if it were sent to the
office of Education"
DR.. McMurrin's speech
marked the end of the three
day convention which attracted
school board members from so
States, the District and two
territories.
The Washington area dele
gates were District School
Board President Wesley S. Will
liams and Board Member Louise
Steele; DR.. Barnard Joy of Ar
lington; William Gravatt,
Blackstone, Va; DR.. Richard
Wiegle of Annapolis, and Mrs.
Frances Dodson, Charles Coun-
ty, Md.
Of the local representatives,
only Mr.. Williams and Mrs.
Steele voted yesterday in favor
of Federal aid to schools.
DR.. McMurrin said the over
riding goal of American edu-
cation today should be the ad-
justment of the educational
system to the national goals.
He described those goals as
national unity, national security
and national survival, and at
the same time a national con-
Germ for the educational needs
of the individual student.
I'VE are moving into an era
which will demand of us some
thing which might be described
as national perspectives in ed
ucation," he said.
Education first must be
based on the needs Of the indi-
vidual pupil, but it also must
help the Nation to achieve its
national aspirations-the needs
of our society as a whole"
His Views on Teachers
The commissioner said much
more concern should be placed
on challenging the Nations su-
perior students.
Referring to teachers, he
said there is vast room for
Improvement"
Many teachers are dedicated,
but some should be fired-not
given raises, DR.. McMurrin de-
clared. He added. however, that
higher salaries for good teach
ers would help to upgrade the
profession.
The commissioner repeated a
charge made recently in Wash
ington that public schools are
soft" He placed some of the
blame on his listeners, mem
berS of the Nations school
boards.
I'VE should tougher up" he
said, particularly in raising aca-
demic standards.

Senate.
His only Immediately obvious
miscalculation in his political
career was his membership in
his early 20s of the Klu Klux
Klan. "A mistake of my youth, I"
the Senator explains now. He
became an organizer for the
Klan briefly because. he said,
he wanted to fight communism.
He married at 18 a girl he'd
courted with notes and chewing
gum at the change of classes
in high school. His first job was
pumping gas. Later he became
a butcher and meat counter
manager.
Il always approached each
job with an idea of how I could
! do it better than anyone else" "
recollected the Senator, proud
of building a Grab Orchard
CIV. Va.) meat business from
$500 to $4,000 a month.
! A Sunday School class at the
Grab Orchard Baptist Church
was the same kind of a chal-
lenge. He built a class from six
to Is to 20 to "a to % to 80
to % to SO on successive Sun
days-and he can remember
every number although the
class met in 1948. He spent one
day a week calling everybody
he'd invited and - typically-
stayed up all Saturday night
preparing his lesson.
Suspicious of Laziness
His conviction that some-
thing comes, not from nothing,
but from hard work probably
contributes to his skepticism
about the District welfare pro-
gram.
Il came up from a humble
background and humble sur
roundings," the Senator said.

had a better life than the

Educational Plan Approved
The bill authorizing educa-
tional and cultural exchange
programs between the United
States and other countries was
sent to the White House after
the House approved the con-
ference report previously
adopted by the Senate.
This measure, designed to

House and sent to the White
House authorizes a Delaware
River Compact. New York,
Pennsylvania, New Jersey and
Delaware would enter into the
compact for conservation of

The Mexican Farm Labor

relating to employment Of ap-

cotton and harvest other crops
in Southwestern States. The
Senate was expected to approve

declared it would harm Ameri-

who contended it was unjust to
Mexicans who need the seasonal

House leaders practically
abandoned plans yesterday tc
seek higher postal rates this
year.
In the congressional drive fol-
adjournment this week they also
encountered delay in getting
final action on legislation for
statutory establishment of the
Peace Corps with a first-year
$40 million authorization.
A request to send slightly
different House and Senate bills
to conference brought an OBJ
lection by Representative Davis
Democrat of Georgia. Such a
move now will require Rules
Committee clearance. Leaders
recalled that the Rules Commit
tee cleared the Peace Corps bill
several weeks ago and probably
will do so this week, although
perhaps not before Wednesday
or Thursday.

firm" decision would be made
until early this week on whether
to call up the measure under an
open rule procedure permitting
amendments. A no-amendment
rule was rejected, 222-142, by
the House Friday.
Sponsors of the compromise
bill to obtain $521 million in
additional revenue warned that
the Senate would not accept
the presently modified measure
If amended by the House. Main
provisions of the bill would in
crease by one cent the existing
rates on first class and airmail
letters and postcards. 1t has
been Endorsed by the Kennedy
administration.
The death of Representative
Brooks, Democrat of Louisiana,
caused the House to adjourn
earlier than planned at it's un-
usual Saturday session. The
House put off until tomorrow
the controversial bill to estab-
lish a United States Arms Con-
troll Agency. The Senate last
month passed a considerably
different measure to set up a
disarmament agency.

pleted congressional action on
