The Supreme Court agreed
TO review the following cases.

students were arrested on tres
pass charges after refusing to
leave seats in Hooper's Restau-
rant on June II. 1860. The

Court.

College were convicted of tres
pass and breach of the peace

constitutional right TO freedom
Of expression.

gro students we're convicted of
treSspaSs for a lunch counter
sit-in at a variety store on

statute making this a mis-
demeanor was non-discrimi-
natory and valid.
The Supreme Court ordered
five Sit-in cases returned to
the Virginia Supreme Court of
Appeals for reconsideration.
In four cases the lower court
was told to weigh them against
the Supreme Courts decision

Lion and the u. N.

Emperor Halle SelaSSie of Ethiopia
has given the world good example Of
how man-to-man diplomacy still can
get things done without a lot of inter
national hoopla and discord. He has
been the prime mover in bringing about
the Algerian Moroccan ceasefire, such
as it Is. In less time than 1t would have
taken a U. N. peace mission to get off
the ground, the Conquering Lion jetted
into action, brought the antagonists to-
gether and wheedled them into an
agreement. It was a pretty good show
for personality and procedure which
modern diplomacy assumed to have been
relegated to the shelf some time ago.
Unhappily, Algeria and Morocco
may still shoot at each other. The terms
Of the ceasefire apparently are not pre-
else enough to satisfy either side, and
so there is continuing danger. AS a
result, there is talk of taking the issue
either to the 11-nation Security Coun-
ell or the General Assembly, which
now has more than 100 members. No
course could be less wise. Let Emperor
Halle Selassie, avoiding the customary
q. N. show, try again to settle the whole
business behind the scenes.

Traffic Court

The day Of the automated court
room may or may not come, but the
United States Court of Appeals in
Richmond has taken firm step in that
direction. AS brake on attorneys who
can't, or won't, stop talking, the court
has Installed system of warning lights
geared to an automatic clocking device.
Following custom, attorneys are al
lotted so much time for their arguments
and summations. Only now, nothing
is left to chance. A green light flashes
on, and the argument starts. When an
amber light comes on, the attorney goes
into his summation. Then comes the
red light which, as usual, means stop.
If the harangue should continue, the
red light begins to wink.
What has not been made clear,
however, is whether the Judge will hand
out tickets to those reckleSSly running
through the red light.

Waterfront Clearance

From all indications, the controversy
over the Districts allotment Of wharf
space to commercial fishermen on the
new Southwest waterfront has been set
tied to everyone's satisfaction. We say
this with fingers crossed Too many
times in the past, just when things
seemed to be going well, some minor
Snag has turned into an anchor, holding
the big Southwest project on dead cen
ter. That is why the approval of the
waterfront plan, which once seemed to
involve matter Of months, has taken
years instead.
This time, however, things really
seem to be different. BY its approval
the other day of change in the water
front plan which makes certain con-
cesSionS to the fiShing-boat operators,
the National Capital Planning Com
mission has not only shown good judg-
ment, but has set some kind of record
for fast action. AS a result, the Dis

ton to finally approve the plan this

small country like Wet Nam,
struggling for survival, con-
not Oxford to waste its
revolution.
Why continue to disclaim
our role in the massacre?
Already events in Cuba have
proved us liars. It is long past
the time for American citi-
zens to take stock of our for
eign policies. In almost every
instance where we have
openly or secretly meddled in
the internal affairs of an
other people. only communism
has been the winner. Our
course must change or the
bells may toll for America
sooner than we think.
Instead Of recognizing the
Saigon rebels and consorting
with the murderers Of the
ruling family, it would seem
more decent to send our
efficient Mr.. Lodge to look
into conditions behind the
Berlin Wall and in other Iron
Curtain countries where mil
lions Of Christians suffer
under the Red yoke. Perhaps,
even at this late date, he
might bind up some Of the
wounds in Hungary.

The article Welcome Coup
in Wet Nam" in your Sun
day editorial section seems
to me a typical example of
propaganda in the news. To
Americans well informed
about Wet Nam and who are
also anti Communists there
is nothing welcome about the
take-over Of that unhappy
country by the Communists.
The probabilities are that
the Wet Nam coup will turn
out to be a rank disgrace and
part of an accelerated take
over Of South Wet Nam and
other portions of Southeast
Asia by the Left. 1t is an
other proof to those persons
all over the world who have
really committed themselves
against communism land its
twin brother socialism, that

TeStom0ni1

Representative Ashbrook Of Ohio
has a name for It: Testomania. It de-
Scribes the widespread psychological
testing Of students, such as recently
was exposed to public gaze at Mont
gomery Junior College, which prizes into
their private lives in the hope of learn
ing something educationally useful.
Mr.. Ashbrook is not alone in his
concern. Currently, the entire Senate
has followed Senator Goldwater'S lead
in blowing the whistle on this disrup-
tive and often shocking practice which
in the past few years has become
standard procedure in school systems
throughout the Nation.
In their worst form, the tests have
sown seeds Of suspicion and doubt In
the minds Of young pupils toward their
parents, have attempted to explore
their sexual behavior, have asked ques-
tons for which the answers would
impugn either the religious or patriotic
integrity Of the child, and have left
children doubling their normalcy while
nursing feelings Of inferiority.
Consider these samples from one
test: My parents play favorites. I'm
ashamed Of my parents dress and
manners. I wonder If am normal in
my sexual development. I think about
sex good deal of the time. My father
is tyrant. Which is worse: ~ splitting
on the Bible; (2) splitting on the Ameri-
can flag? How far should high school
students go in love relations? I wish
liked Negro children as well as white
children. Does it really pay to be
honest? Is there conflict between the
Bible and my school lessons?
Defenders Of the tests say they are
a short cut to learning personality
problems Of pupils to discuss with
parents. Too often, however, parents
are totally unaware the tests are being
given. Since he launched his campaign,
Mr.. AShbrook has received more than
5000 communications from parents ex-
pressing disapproval Of this shopping
into private affairs. They agree with
Mr.. AShbrook'S indictment:
A school would be In serious trouble
II it would undresS young students for ex-
animation or inoculate them with some
cCA PdICIlLd1 per1QlSSlOn. yet,
virtually the same thing Is being done all
Of the time through these brainpicking tests
which literally undress young people and
interfere In private areas which would be
better left alone by schools.
Congress, fortunately, has a chance
right now to deal a strong blow to this
sort Of shopping. The Senate's National
Defense Education bill contains an
amendment denying Federal funds for
tests In secondary schools eliciting "in-
formation dealing with the personality,
environment, home life, parental or
family relationships, economic status,
or sociological or psychological prob
lens Of the pupil tested"
House conferees, by supporting this
amendment not contained in their own
bill, can lead the way to a victory for
sanity,

AbsurdiH

It was not until this week, when
the Commissioners held public hearings
on proposals for the 1855 fiScal-year
budget, that the abSurdity Of the Dis
trict's current fiscal dilemma fully hit
home.
Here are the poor Commissioners,
taking the preliminary steps they must
take In order TO send Congress q budget
request by January for the year start
ing next July 1. And there is Congress,
not yet near final action on the city
budget for the year which began last
July /.
Does this kind of procrastination
hurt anyone? 1t most assuredly does.
In q very real sense, the 1865 request
will be based largely on the programs
and expenditures approved for this year.
Until the level Of these expenditures is
finally known, budget officials will be
reduced to gueSSwork. There is simply
no orderly basis to plan ahead.
But there Is q greater harm. The
fact is that the current budget, which
is not yet determined, contains the
means Of satisfying q great number Of
needs which exist right now. Until Con-
greSS completes action on the appropri-
alton, however, city programs are frozen
at last years level. Essential new con-
Struction projects, which should have
been started last July land for which
funds presumably will be approved),
already have suffered a four-month
delay. The most urgent immediate need
Is for additional school teachers. No one
disputes that need. But until Congress
acts, the shameful conditions Of over
crowding in the clasSrooms which exist
today will continue.
As Senator Dodd commented yes
terday, any local government which
operated in this fashion would be
thrown out on its ear.
But the fault In all this Is not In
the basic congressional budget process.
Nor, in fact, does 1t lie, as far as the
District budget is concerned, with the
Appropriations Committees.
The real cause Of the incredible
delay this year Is that the District did
not have sufficient revenues to pay for
even the minimum needs which Con-
gress now is considering. The Appro-
priationS Committees were powerless to
review these needs until an additional
revenue bill was passed. And Congress,
moving in its own good time, did not get
around to clearing the revenue legis-
lation until late August.
The tragedy is that this whole sorry
performance may very well be repeated
in years to come. The new-revenue bill,
which raises the allowable amount Of
the annual Federal payment to the Dis
trict, is sufficient for this year. It will
not suffice for long. As the need for
increased expenditures occurs, the ratio
Of a fair Federal payment will change.
And 1t will be possible to achieve the
goal Of orderly budgetary planning un-
der these conditions only If Congress,
in the meantime, adopts some formula
which assures that the Federal share
may be adjusted equitably without spe-
cific legislation each time the need for
a change arises.

From second verging on third
place spot In the list of GO. P. unan-
nounced candidates, Governor Rookie
Teller has shot forward to become not
only the leading announced candidate
for the Republican nomination for the
presidency, but the leading announced
candidate Of all parties.
He did this by the simple expedient
Of announcing before anyone else and
it certainly has eased the suspense.
The Governor also broke new
ground In making the announcement
on Today" the early morning variety
show. The associations were nothing
but good. His fellow gueStS-StarS were
the African folk singer Miriam Makeba,
representing both the civil rights vote
and the folk song vote, and Paul Gal
leo, the novelist and ex-sportswriter,
representing American devotion to
wholesome games.
His guest spot on To-day" now puts
politics firmly on the ground at both
ends of the broadcast day, with politi-
cal shows of various sorts appearing
in the evening hours. There remains
only the soft middle. We expect to
hear hourly that the next winner on
Queen For a Day" gets to campaign
