fare in North Carolina" "
The welfare worker explain

during the 1961-1962 period, is
supplied by state and federal
funds. Expenditures for the
1961-1962 period will reach a
total of $226, ,533.43, according
to Mrs. Bonner. She stated that
10 persons are now receiving
old age assistance from the well
fare department; that 126 de-
pendent children are being pro-
yided. for, and listed 80 persons
as recipients of aid because of
permanent injury or total dis
ability.

tional Park. Located west of
Asheville-an hours drive-and
lying half in North Carolina and
half in Tennessee, the Great
Smokes are a vast unspoiled
playground preserved just as
nature created them. There are
many high and mighty peaks in
the Smokes but one of the most
revered and renowned is Cling
mans Dome on the border be-
tween the two states. Cling
mans Dome is the third highest
peak in the Eastern United
States and highest in the Great
Smokes. 1t is named for Thomas
Lanier Clingman, Confederate
general, U. S. Senator and ex-
plorer. The Cherokee Indians
called the mountain Ku Wa Hi

Aid to Education

Among the many proposals for en-
couraging better school work, and per-
haps better automobile driving, we like
one announced by an Illinois insurance
company. 1t is offering 20 per cent
reduction in auto insurance premiums
for 16-to-25-year-old unmarried male
students with A or B averages. To those
in the eligible category, this formula
offers an obvious incentive for i'm
proving their school performance and,
as consultant of the company points
out, an inducement to members of this
accident-prone group to spend more
time studying and less time exposing
themselves to accident risk. A potential
incidental benefit, of course, is that
parents might have the privilege of
using the family car more frequently.
To whatever extent the plan works, the
company itself deserves an A for mag

Unfinished Business

The Virginia General Assembly has
an important piece of unfinished bust
ness to do at the current session. The
job is to complete the anti-billboard
legislation of 1860 so that all parts of
the new interstate highway system will
be free of unsightly signs of the type
that mar U. S. and many other high
ways in the State.
The previous Legislature barred
advertising signs from all sections of
the new expresSway for which rights of
way were yet to be acquired, but left
untouched some 100 miles for which
the land had been purchased. Because
of this omission Virginia failed to
qualify for the extra Federal highway
fund granted to States which comply
fully with Federal standards with re-
Spect to billboard restrictions on the
new route.
Delegate Tom Frost of Warrenton
has introduced bill that would cor
rect the defect in the 1860 law. He
has secured the signatures Of an over

Needed Review

1t is good that the Supreme Court
will pass on the case of Frederick c.
Lynch, who was found not guilty by
reason of insanity in bad check case
Having been held mentally compe-
tent to stand trial, which presumably
meant that he understood the nature
OF the proceedings, Lynch wanted to
plead guilty to the check charge. The
judge, however, had before him testi-
mony that Lynch was of unsound mind
at the time he passed the checks and
that he was still in need of pSychiatric
treatment at the time of trial. There
fore, he refused to accept guilty plea
and found the defendant not guilty
by reason of insanity.
Perhaps, as the Court of Appeals
said, this was not an abuse of judicial
discretion. Nevertheless, a serious ques-
ton arises when judge, in effect,
dictates the nature of the defense
which can be offered by mentally
competent defendant. And this is es-
pecially true since civil commitment
proceedings could have been started if
it was felt that Lynch was of I'M
sound mind and danger to himself
or to the public. In any event, the
question raised seems serious enough to
warrant Supreme Court ruling on it,

whelming number of fellow delegates
as cosponsors of the bill. Thus, pas
sage by the House is assured-and no
difficulty is foreseen in obtaining SEN
ate approval also. So the prospect is
good that Virginia's 1854 miles of
interstate highway will be safeguarded
from undesirable, scenery blocking sign
boardS-with a Federal bonus of up
to ST million thrown in as a gesture
OF appreciation, And motorists who
use the new highways will appreciate
the protective program, too.

'CurtdiIed' Is Riuht!

The $265.7-million District of Co.
lumbia budget is described officially as
rcurtailed" More accurately, it is a
skeleton, to which certain amount
of meat needs to be added In its
present form, according to city officials,
the budget would leave the District
unable to continue normal municipal
services at even their current level.
The $67 million proposed for new cap
ital Improvements falls far short of
meeting public works needs.
Even so, the new budget is a more
sensible and realistic document than
the one sent to Congress a year ago.
At that time, the Commissioners sub
mitted an unbalanced budget, hoping
that Congress would provide new reve-
nueS. When these revenues failed to
materialize, any Semblance of orderly
budgeting collapsed.
In contrast, the budget sent to
Capitol Hill yesterday calls for level
of expenditures within available reve-
nueS. When and if Congress approves the
city taX-increaSe bill now pending, the
Commissioners will request further ex-
penditures. How much more? Officials
hope for some $23 million in new
revenues, enough to finance additional
spending of about $35 million. This
admittedly is optimistic; the likelihood
is for something far less. Regardless
Of the amount, however, the procedure
being followed this year presumably
will permit the Commissioners to tailor
their spending requests precisely to the
new revenue total
In the meanwhile, there is little
they can do until confereeS of the
House and Senate agree on the still
stranded taX-increaSe bill. We hope
that one or another of the compromise
solutions now being explored leads to
early approval. A great deal of con-
fusion and effort will be spared if this
occurs before the House Appropriations
Committee begins its hearings on the
District, so that the contemplated ad-
ditionS may be considered as part of
single budget package

GAAb40s
The results of the first At
lantic convention of NATO
nations which is due to end
here today inevitably will dis
appoint those who expected
arth-shaking things of the
meeting.
Those who hoped for a
revolutionary new impetus
toward some form of Atlantic
union will hardly be salts
fled by the relatively modest
m eaSure of agreement
reached over the last two
weeks by the representatives
of the is NATO nations gath
cred here. This applies to a
good many of the delegates
themselves, whose number
includes a strong representa-
ton of extreme partisanS of
the Federal Atlantic system.
This does not mean, how
ever, that the convention has
been failure. Indeed, it's mod
est recommendations could
well prove the more effective
in the long run for the rea-
son that they represent prac-
tical measures for strength
ening the alliance at this
stage of the community's de-
velopment.
These results are largely
the work Of the three who
dominated the conference
from the beginning. Former
Secretary of State Herter and
William L. Clayton, former
UnderSecretary of State, to-
gether with Belgium's Paul
Van iceland, have exerted a
moderating influence which
has earned them some critic
ism from the enthusiasts. But
the effect has been to keep
the attention of the delegates
concentrated on the prac-
tlcalitieS instead of taking
off on wild and possibly dan
gerous flights of fancy.
Seek to Avoid Confusion
There are, of course, Spe-
cial reasons why both Mr.,
Herter and Mr.. Clayton
should have appeared here
in the role of conservatives.

Wilderness" contains pa
pers and addresses and parts
OF the discussion from the
Seventh Biennial Wilderness
Conference held in April of
last year in San Francisco.
The sponsoring organiza-
lions are fundamentally in
tereSted in what seems a mar
row, though nonetheless vi
tally important, goal: the
preservation of what little is
left of Americas wilderness.
And by Wilderness" they
mean just that: land funda-
mentally untouched and I'M
influenced by m ankind.
Camping areas are not will
derneSS, nor are areas pene-
trated by roads, however I'M
obtruSive may be the paving
and however splendid the
vistas seen from it.
AND WHY is the preser-
walton of wilderness in this
most closely defined sense so
important? Anyone reason
ably sophisticated in the
ways of science is aware of
the vast Importance of nat
ural geological laboratories.
But there are reasons closer
to the human spirit. Supreme
Court Justice Douglas, who
addressed the conference,
says: "WholeneSs is the prod
uct Of the rhythm of the
earth. Man in an apartment
or motor car-like man in
a space ships an occupant
of the universe but not a
part of it. Only when there is
a wilderness, can man har-
monte his inner being with
the wave lengths of the earth.
When the earth, its products,
its creatures become his con-
Germ, man is caught up in a
cause greater than his own
life and more meaningful."
Many years ago, Benjamin
Rush was more concise and
perhaps a bit less flattering:
Man is naturally a wild an
imal. Taken from the woods,
he is never happy until he
returns to them again"
The range of the papers
and discussions is most i'm

which they lead partly I'M

trade policies of the United
States.
They realize only too we'll
the difficulties the admin
istration will face in trying
to get its trade program
through Congress in this ses-
sion. And they were naturally
eager to avoid anything in
the course of the current
meeting that might have the
result of confusing or COM
plicating the issues in this
crucial debate.
One Step at a Time
Beyond this, both men hold
to the idea of building the
Atlantic Community one step
at time, concentrating on
those areas where real prog
resS is possible. For the time
being, the giant steps men
toned in their congressional
report are confined mainly
to the area of economic CO.
operation. These steps pro-
posed by the administration
are quite large enough for
Congress and the public to
take without stretching them
still further by a series of
complicated long-range polit-
lcal recommendations.
This is the approach with
which European conserva-
tiveS such as Mr.. Van Zee
land are very much in agree
ment. For them the prob
lem of real urgency is the
completion of the Common
Market with the entry of
Great Britain and aSSocia-
ton of other West European
countries. Here again the
enormously delicate and COM
plicated task could be COM
promised or at least made
more difficult by emotional
appeals for a broader Allan
tic union.
None Of these conServa-
tiveS have anything against
the fundamental detectives of
the Atlantic Congress. All of
them agree that political CO.
operation within the alliance
does not always work very
we'll and that steps must be
taken to strengthen the ma
chinery. They believe, how
ever, that the process must
necessarily be evolutionary
and pragmatic rather than
revolutionary and visionary.
And that in the present case
it is far better to make haste
slowly, once the directions
have been defined.
