statement as to the status of the
United States in Relationship to the
UNESCO treaty on discrimination il
education was blown out of the water
by Mr.. Speer, he countered that he
preferred to rely on the Opinions
expressed in minority report of q
congressional committee, and others
with whom he agreed.
Mr.. Speer, sticking doggedly to
the question stated for debate. eff
fectively wrote off the Doering pres
entation on UNESCO with the state
ment to Senator Hayden of Arizona
by Assistant Secretary of State Brook
Hays in July of 1861 which pointed
out:
"The United States is not a
party to the Convention against
Discrimination in Education, nor
has the Senate been requested to
give its advice and consent to rati-
fication as some reports have sug-
gested.'
Doering, with the numerical adj
vantage in the audience. received
applause and created laughter when
he attacked the federal government
and our congressman and senators
as a monstrous "they'' and "them"
and when he stuck the needle into
Montana's Junior Senator. but
they were especially hilarious when
o. d. Speer, speaking of the nation
al debt, asked to whom we owed this
national debt?
People came to Helena from as
far as Missoula and Bozeman to
listen to the presentation.
After it was over, one person
was overheard to remark this is

of the debate got stretched, but he
would not allow questions that en-
the extended boundary.

LACKS FAITH IN
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT

Doering insisted that the federal
government will turn education over
to foreign powers, and called for
adjustment of the division of educa-
ton from the Department of Health,
Education and Welfare. He said the
people should insist the federal gov
eminent relinquish its power and de-
centralize government. Using the
tired old cliche that the federal gov
eminent can not give us anything
they don't first take away, he said
the emphasis seems to be on dol
lars which is not the sole criteria for
education.
He cited every federal program
set up for a specific purpose as the
example of federal control, includ-
ing the school lunch program. In
Helena he commended school person
mel have too much to handle to adj
minister the school lunch program,
yet the. federal government would
not let them turn it over TO "profes-
sional food handlers.
The last State Legislature, he
said, cut back the extension service
by 81 per cent because it had be-
come nothing but a propaganda
agency, and if that is what it is
going to be he thought it should
be cut back the ''other 40 per
cent.
The Helena dentist would retain
20 per cent of federal taxes in the
state for education, based on some
sort of program requiring the states
to raise given amount, which by
some mystic process must eliminate
the federal controls he fears.
Federal funds, he said, should be
requested by the Governor of the
states. Last year, in the poorest
state in the Union (Mississippi) they
passed memorial to the federal
Congress that they did not want fed
sral aid', Doering said.
He admitted there is a need for |
ot more money for education, but
dollars are not going to be all the
Answers include consolida-
ion of elementary, secondary and

RIVER FREEWAY
ROUTE APPROVED

A new route for the Potomac
River freeWay. which would
eliminate some industrial prop
erty on the Georgetown water
front, was approved today by
the Commissioners.
This freeway is to run be-
tween the inner loop system
west leg at K street and the
District end of the proposed
Three Sisters Bridge.
The new route had been in
dorsed earlier this month by
the National Capital Planning
Commission.
Under the plan, the freeway
will be constructed inland from
the waterfront. This will take
out some of the less desirable
industrial property, officials
said.
The route originally proposed
would have put the road over
the water at one point.
Under the plans presented
by Harold L. Aiken, District
highway director, the existing
Whitehurst freeway will handle
westbound traffic. The new
freeway, which is to be double.
decked with the Whitehurst
freeway between Thirty-thirc
and Thirty-seventh streets, will
carry eastbound traffic.

70 Are Safe
After Fire in
Blind Home

TWenty-three residents of a
Georgetown home for the blind
last night escaped serious in
jury during a tWo-alarm fire
which officials said apparently
was started by a careless
smoker.
The fire was confined to a
top-floor room Of the Henry &
Annie Hurt Home for the Blind
at $3.50 r street NV, accord
ing to District Fire Chief Mil
lard H. Sutton.
He said a second alarm was
sounded "as a precautionary
measure" for the three-story
brick building as soon as fire
men discovered flames shooting
from a top-floor window shortly
after 7;30 pm.
District Fire Inspector Bur-
ton w. johnson said the blaze
started in the third-floor room
of Melvin C. Creamer, SO. The
blind man told investigators
that he had been smoking
shortly before the fire broke
out.
Inspector Johnson said a Gig
arctic lighter had probably
been accidentally left burn
ing when the blind man placed
it on his bed.
Two persons were treated at
Georgetown Hospital for smoke
inhalation and later released.
They we're identified as Mrs.
Alice Mott, 78, a third-floor
resident, and Mrs. Elizabeth
Mcclure, 66, a practical nurse
at the home.
Another nurse, Mrs. Mary
Brown, SIS, was treated on the
scene for smoke inhalation.
Mr.. Creamer was not injured.
Mrs. Ella Latham, super
visor of the home. who made
the first call, said there was
no panic as the elderly resi-
dents helped each ether to the
ground floor.
