industry. even though the bust

Second, Gov. Nelson A. Rookie

What effect the divorce will have
on the Governors race for re-

of course, remains to be seen.
But no observer has yet suggested
that it will enhance his chances

chronological and faculty train

up five mothers as volunteer
teachers, drew up articles of asso-
citation and told their plans. Be-
fore they knew it, they had 10
more children, all of other ma
tionalities, to add to the %.
Many of the schools served by
the foundation came into being
on an emergency basis on the
initiative of parents anxious not
to have their children's education
suffer from residence abroad.
Minimum Resources
Virtually all began with mini
mum reSources-a small chalet in
Geneva, quonset hut in Saigon
or an unused garage in Djakarta.
Without normal financial support,
adequate buildings or teaching
materials and often with only VOL
unteer teachers, they gradually
gained help, from others in the
community, sometimes from local
authorities, occasionally from the
government or the United Nations,
often from overseas corporations,
and, more recently, from founda-
tionS.
The schools have a common
problem in their isolation. Far
away from one another and the
usual sources of teachers, books
and other classroom materials,
lacking the normal financial sup
port of other schools, they face
difficulties above and beyond
those of the ordinary school at
home.
It was with this in mind that
a group of Americans long asso-
ciated in Geneva with the League
of Nations and other interna-
tional activities. spearheaded by
Arthur Sweetser of Washington,
who formerly headed the United
Nations Information Center here,
established the foundation six
years ago to serve as a liaison
point. Among other activities, it
has co-sponsored conferences in
the Philippines, Thailand, India
and Japan for the principals of
the international schools in Asia.
In its recruitment service, the
foundation last year placed SO
teachers and administrators in
the overseas schools, which have
an annual turnover of parents,
students and faculty of from IS

Too Many?

One of the big questions being
asked now is this one:
With Kennedy in the White
House and another as Attorney
General of the United States
Bobby, will the voters decide
that one more this one in the
Senate would be too much for
one family?
Teddy Kennedy said he recog-
nized that he would be the butt
of such charges as the one that
is trying to ride to high office
on his big brothers coattail.
The President promptly said he
would follow a "hands off" policy
on the Massachusetts, intraparty
fight, that he would simply vote
in the primary.
%. my brother is carrying
this campaign on his own and
will conduct it that way" he told
his news conference on Wednes-
day.
Many observers were wondering
how the President could really
stay out of the fight even if he
wanted to. They reasoned that
every time the popular Chief Ex-
ecutive hits the front pages of
the Nations newspapers - which
is almost daily there will be an
indirect bonus for Teddy.
If the President and the At
torney General, who also said he
would take no active part in the
campaign, will stay on the side
lines. the Sisters Kennedy will do
no such thing. Teddy was quite
clear on this. His sisters may

Program Later

Mr.. McNamara's conclusion:
The RS-70 program, las we see
it now, would not add significantly
to our strategic retallatory capa-
bility in the period after 1867"
Perhaps as gesture of COM
promise, he added that he would
not preclude the possibility of a
full-scale RS-70 program later on
"if the need for such a system
should become apparent"
When the battle is renewed, on
the House floor, members of the
House Appropriations Committee
are expected to try to have the
language of the bill eased so the
Executive Branch will not be or
dered to spend the extra money
for the big plane.
But barring strong pressure
from the White House, the House,
in the opinion of one knowledge
able member of the Appropriations
group, is likely to back Mr.. Vim
son and approve the measure as
it now reads.
What then? The administra-
ton doubtless would move to keep
the mandatory language out of
the Senate's version, which then
would go to joint conference. If
the House conferees prevailed,
it would be up to the President.
Few doubt that he could ignore

Escape Clauses

Under escape clauses in the old
legislation now expiring, tariff in
creases, once granted under the
escape clause, ARE as a practical
matter indefinite in duration"
Mr.. Gardner says. Under the new
legislation, they expire after four
years unless the President makes
new finding. To put it very
simply, under existing law the
burden of proof is on the importer
to show that tariff relief is no
longer needed, while under the
new law the burden is on the
domestic industry to show that
it is still needed"

not demanded it or special in
terest groups have blocked it.
On another matter, medicare-
to-the-aged, Mr.. Kennedy made
it clear that he would take his
fight directly to the people. The
administration bill is still lodged
in the House Ways and Means
Committee, and the membership
of that group is repeatedly opposed
to it.
And so, the President, whose
legislative aides have been putting
the pressure on opposition COM
mittee members without any
ringing success to date, will try q
new way. He will attempt to build
up public support and turn this
into pressure on the recalcitrant
House Ways and Means members.
Mr.. Kennedy told his news con-
ference on Wednesday that he
would address a big mediocre
rally in Madison Square Garden
in New York in May as part of
an about administration effort
to bring a vote on the issue during
this session of Congress.
Hearings opened last week on
the legislation the President
probably regards as the most
significant of his administration.
That is the new liberallzed tariff
and trade program.
Cabinet members, headed by
Secretary of Commerce Hodges,
led the way as witnesses, giving
their full support to the program
which would allow cuts of so per
cent on many tariffs and eliminate
others altogether. The opposition
has not yet had its day and the
real debate lies ahead.

on the matter of Federal aid to

he could be in trouble. So far he

he favors any aid to parochial

Some Tariff Terms
Little Understood
By EARL III. VOSS
Star Staff Writer

The statesmen who have been
pushing President Kennedy's new
trade program have concentrated
on the proposals for across-the-
board authority to cut all tariffs
by half and eliminate some Of
them completely.
Other features of the Presidents
program are almost as dramatic
but have received little attention.
Richard N. Gardner, Deputy As
sistant Secretary of State for in
ternational organization affairs,
paid more attention to these other
features in a recent speech and
made the complicated concepts
more understandable than they
usually are.
This article is based on his
explanation of frequently neglect
ed points in the Presidents trade
program: Peril points and escape
clauses, serious injury" and the
general PHILOSOPHERS on where the
burden of proof for readjusting
tariffs should lie.

Peril Point

The Tariff Commission now sets
its peril points as limit beyond
which tariff reduction cannot go
without causing or threatening
serious injury. Under the new
law. we have peril provision
without a point, in other words,
the commission is merely asked to
advise on the economic effect of
tariff reductions but not on the
limit to which those reductions
should CO."

The distant school bells that
ring for thousands of American
children living abroad scarcely
echo here at home.
Yet, often struggling with knot
tier problems from their isolation
in foreign lands than the smallest
rural school faces in the United
States, the overseas schools form
an international showcase of
American ideas.
Typically started on the initia-
tive of American parents working
overseas in diplomatic, technical
aid or industrial posts, the schools
also typically open their doors to
other children of the international
community or host country.
A recent count of the 1T stu
dents at the Anglo American
School in Moscow, Jointly OPP
Grated by the United States and
British Embassies, found 40 Amer
lean and Is British students, four
each from Australia, Ghana,
Japan, Pakistan, Turkey and the

from Canada, Ethiopia, Israel and
Italy, and one each from Ceylon,

Norway, the Sudan and Sweden.
Free World Education

island of democratic free world
education in the very center of
world communism.
The unique opportunity which
the overseas schools have in in
ternational education is undoubt-
edly enhanced by the fact that
their purpose is not primarily
that, but, rather, the practical
need to maintain the schooling
of children living temporarily
abroad until time to take their
places back in the schoolroom
at home.
No national school could be ex-
pected to supply schooling to meet
the continuity of education in all
other countries. Nor do most par
