lays and Malayan Chinese,
almost equal in n number,
make up almost nine-tenths
OF the population. the Malay
an Indians are the third ma
Jor community. Eurasians
and Arabs are significant
minor groups"
CThe Technology is not as
confused as it seems. A
M alayan is amy person
whose home may be in. Ma
laya";; "a Malay is a person
Of the Malay race"
Mr.. Gullick then proceeds
to outline the divisions with.
in each community in the
same stylized fashion.
He thus leaves ample room
for detailed studies Of eco
nomic, political and constitu-
tional developments with
considerable emphasis on the
institutional means for ba-
lancing the claims and ia
Tents of Malay and Chinese.
Dry Reading
The reading that results Is
apt to be somewhat dry. Mr..
Gullick tells us, for example,
that "of the 48 areas under
development by the FLDA
Federal Land Development
Authority towards the end
OF 1862 all but one had rub
Der as the basic cash crop. It
was then decided to give
priority to oil palm cultiva-
ton wherever the soil was
suitable despite the formida-
BILE roblems Of technique
and organization which this
change involves. The FLDA
was then boldly contemplate
ing the development Of a sin
gle block of 100000 acres in
central Pahang, of which
$4,000 acres would be under
oil palms"
This may well prove too
much for many readers. Yet
the never-en dine debate
about foreign policy and for
eign aid imposes on the cit
lien an obligation to reduce at
least somewhat his ignorance
of the exotic" nations of the
world.
In a sense, Malaga can
serve both for itself and
somewhat similar countries
for no reason deeper than
the simple fact that Mr.. Gull
lick has written about Ma
laya.
For the reader who per-
severes come away not only
with a fair knowledge of that
country but the general prin-
ciple that nonwestern coun-
tries have aspects for which
there are no analogies here.
Thus. there. is a distinct re-
duction in his. tendency to
m a Ike off-h a nd judgments
about the institutions of the
emerging nations on the doc
trinaire ground that there is
only one way to do the job,
that way of course being the
way we imagine we do It.

part, by Federal funds. One
such test in particular, given
to boys and girls in several
Wichita, Kansas, junior high
schools was particularly
shocking as an intolerable
invasion Of privacy perpe-
trated against a captive au-
dience.
Among the 200 questions
these students were COM
PEELED to answer, and these
examples are quite typical of
all of the questions asked,
were the following:
did you during the last
two years:
/. Steal goods from ware
houses or storage houses?
2. Steal more than So from
your parents?
3. Fight physically and
bodily with an adult relative?
I have gone further than
petting with a person of the
opposite sex. True or false?
Answer the following ques-
tons yes or no:
1. Is your father fatrer
about punishment than your
mother?
2. I wish my family had as
much money as the families
of many of my classmates.
3. I wish my father and
mother were better educated,
like the parents of many of
my classmates"
I would like to presume on
your patience a little further
by quoting from the minority
report on the bill submitted
by Senator Tower and my
self:
1--WE would like to know by
what right do those who con-
duct these surveys presume
to pry into the lives Of a
captive audience Of children?
:. Those children whose
parents cannot afford to
send them to private. or
parochial schools are truly
transformed into voluntary
guinea pigs through a use of
the public school for purpos-
es for which it was never in
tended"
"AS we read these questions,
we are shockingly reminded
of George Orwell's book
1894 and the ever-watchful
eye of Big Brother eternally
prying into the innermoSt
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1963-10-07

recesses of the private and
personal lives of every indivi-
dual living in the completely
totSlitarian society.
mot only do these questions
constitute an intolerable in
vasion of the right Of priva-
cy, not only are they COM
pletely unrelate d to what
constitutes the true content
of education, but they clearly
have the effect of raising g
doubts, suspicious, antago-
nism, the hostility in the
minds of our children toward
their parents, and a skepti-
cism about the basic moral
principles upon which our
society has been built. Both
of these results have always
been the deliberately sought
detectives of the totalitarian
forces who seek to overthrow
existing democratic society"
A week ago our Committee
reporte d out a bill which
among other things amends
NDEA in several respects in
GLIDING the section providing
funds for testing which I
quoted earlier in this letter.
It is extremely gratifying to
me, although I voted against
the bill on other grounds,
that one of these a m e n d.
ments provides that no test
ing program financed under
the bill shall provide for the
conduct of any test, or the
asking of any question in
connection Herewith, which
is designed to elicit informa-
ton dealing with the perso-
nality, environment, home
life, parental or family rela-
tionships, economic status, or
sociological or psychological
problems of the pupil tested"
This amendment, approved
by majority of the committee
not on my initiative but on
their own, is substantially
identical with the one I Of
fered in 1861 and which this
same majority then rejected.
I rejoice, as does Heaven, at
the redemption of the sinner.
I hope it also constitutes a
portent that the trend SYM
belized by the views of Mr..
Beck is at long last being
reversed.

THE PASSING SCENE
~ BY WILLIAM S. WHITE e
One Year After Cuban Crisis

Another October finds an
immense change In the Am
erican mood from that Octo-
Der Of q year ago when we
stood at the brink Of nuclear
war over Cuba. Determine
ton and sensible fear sensi-
bly, suppressed; but deter
min ation above aIl-these
were in the American mind.
The new October has ar
rived with anxiety largely
gone and a new and under
standable but also largely
unsupported hope and OPP
timism hanging over most Of
the Nation.
We were right q year ago
to stand fast as a country in
settled resolve to meet una
voidable peril in the spirit Of
men prepared to die rather
than surrender, even though
happily the dice Of history
turned our way instead of
against US. But we are wrong
now, as it seems to me, In
having rushed over, in a sin
gle twelve-months, from the
thick but not ably rational
gloom Of October, 1862, to
the very n e arly irrational,
best-of-all posSible-w orlds
attitude prevalent in Octo-
Der, 1868.
The Wheat Sale
The partial nucIear test
ban with the Soviet Union,
though a defensible enter
prise and though Just posi-
bly, some herald of a true
easing in the cold war, has
not yet either ended that war
or given any assurance what
ever Of the identity Of its
eventual winner.
From much that is hap
pening now, however, one
might suppose that if the
worst was not already past
then a good bit Of the worst
was in sight of being over. So
we talk happily of wheat
sales to the Russians-an
appealing notion no less to
hard-line conservatives than
to soft-line liberals, for con-
'servatives are traders and
trade is an honorable UNDER
pinning Of the very capitalist
system itself.
We talk Of cutting back on
our multi-billion- dollar space
program-and this is good to
hear by both sets Of different
reasons. The conservatives
naturally would like to save
the money. The liberals have
long been resentful at those
billions being set aside for
the moon when it all might
be spent on dozens of earthly
welfarist schemes Matched or
in incubation.
But wheat deals with the
R Russians, no matter how

A BOOK FOR TODAY.
A Look at a Newly Emerged Nation
BY DONALD MINTZ

MALAYA. BY j. M. Gullick
Statistical tables, 256 DID
Nations Of the Modern
World Series.l Frederick A.
Praeger;; $685.
The Federation of Malay.
STA was born on August 81
amid a great deal of fus:
from its neighbors. The new
n nation is strictly speaking
not new. It was created, as J
M. Gullick notes, by the &C.
cession to the 4. indepen-
dent Federation Of Malaga Of
the self-governing state OF
Singapore and three terrific
rtes in Borneo, viz, North
Borneo Sarawak and
Brunei" The last was for
m erly "a British-protecteC
Malay state" whereas North
Borneo and Sarawak were
British colonies"
Mr.. Gullick held various
civil service posts in Malaga
until the Federation of Ma
laya (Which, of course is diff
ferent from the Federation
OF Malaysia was established
in 1857. From 1857 to 1862
he was an executive and d.
rector in the London office
Of the Guthrie Group of
companies who own large es-
tates in Malaga" He has
written a number Of scholar
ly works on the country, and
clearly has an enormous
amount Of information at his
disposal.
Abstract Approach
His new book for the gen.
eral reader does not cover
the e ntire new Federation
but is restricted to Singapore
and those areas that formed
the 1857 Federation of Ma
laya.
There are many ways of
going about producing a book
about a remote land, ranging
fro detailed narration of
the daily life of a few select
ed individuals through more
generalized sociological and
anthropological study, to a
discussion of statistics a n d
most Of the highly conscious
forms Of organization that are
the remote symbols Of ways
and conditions of life.
Mr.. Gullick has chosen to
work at the abstract end of
the cline. Thus, for example,
he is content merely to sum-
Marie the ethnic division of
the country.
Almost nine million people
now live in Malaga" he
writes. Most Of them have
now made their homes there
and they are Malayars who
have in common a country, a
political system and a mas
cent national unity. However,
differences of descent, GUS
tom, language and culture
divide the Malayans still into
three major and a number of
minor communicative Ma

In one ot the numerous l speeches he made in recent years--this ir1 Jashington April 26--Johnson offered broad view of what he thought the D4*<crats should l. attempt in next year, s presidential campaign and thereafter. He said the Democrats must demonstrate that they party of action, 1 offering solutions for the kinds of problems brought about by population in- creases and concentration, and by the length9 ing of life expectancy.
 Johnson once said of himself: ! I am free man, a United States senator, and Democrat in that order. ' I also liberal, conservative, Texan, taxpayer, a rancher] a businessman, a consumer, a parent, a Voter3 and not young I used to be nor as old 1 I expect to be--and all those things in no fixed ordero

When Kennedy won, Johnson accepted second place on the Demo cratic ticket. Accepting. too, the Kennedy leadership he became extraor4 dinarily active in behalf of the Kennedy policies. This activity included work for the civil rights program Kennedy laid do1n--some- thing t hat 1essened Johnson's popularity in the Southland there Wa some tai thi voor that Johnson might be dumped from the ticket next year.
