organization separated from their individual
political thoughts and activities.
It is fairly evident that the great ma iOrity
of teachers have expressed concern over the
situation. AS matter of fact, the delegates
to the Delegate Assembly from LaytonsviIIe
have submitted a resolution to change Article
ii which deals with policies 1t asks the dele.
ton of the entire paragraph and substitute
the following:
"The policies of this corporation shall be
non-commercal and non-sectarian. Neither the
name of this corporation nor the names of it's
officers in their official capacities shall be
used for any purpose other than the work of
the corporation"
This resolution, we imagine, was brought
forth in order to clear the air and force an
expression on the part of the entire member
ship. This resolution is on the agenda for the
meeting of the Delegate Assembly today at
West Rockville Junior High School but will
be held for final disposition in March.
The interesting part of this whole thing
is the fact that the Constitution Revision COM
mittee endorsed by the Executive committee
defeated for the following reasons:
If the proposed amendment were adopt
ed, the Association would become involved in
partisan politics and consequently would be
subject to the ms and outs political party
has after winning or losing an election. This
could render the Association ineffective
Our membership is composed of individ-
uals with differing political party affiliations
and the adoption of the proposed amendment
could destroy the esprit de corps which exists
within the membership. 1t was felt the Asso-
citation particularly in the last election, exert
ed constructive influence for the improvement
of education because of the non-partisan ma
ture of the political activity.
1.-THE adoption of the proposed amendment
would change MCEA's non-profit status under
the Corporate Laws of Maryland. The law
states that non-profit organization must not
engage in partisan politics. Corrupt Practi-
ces AcO."
Some of the leaders in MEGA are getting
wise. 1t is unfortunate that they didn't think
of this when the Delegate Assembly was in.

the need is overwhelming.
1t also calls for industrial
ization, to create new jobs for
poverty-ridden farm families.
In 1947 manufactured goods
accounted for 1875 per cent of
the gross national product. This
figure rose to 25.6 per cent in
1861. Agriculture rose from IT'S
to 20.4 per cent.
Tourists Provide Dollars
Next to agriculture, Mexico'S
biggest dollar provider is the
United States tourist. About
$4,000 left $707 million last
year. About SIS, 1000 United States
citizens live in Mexico and
practically never encounter any
evidence of anti -Yankeeism
True, many Mexicans harbor a
resentment born of history.
One acute problem is the salt
content of the Colorado river
waters received by Mexico.
Washing of United States lands
has abruptly jumped the
salinity of these waters. This
threatens the Mexicali Valley
area which Mexican farmers
laboriously developed.
Communists are quick to ex-
plot such incidents.

To achieve anything resem-
