In San Francisco next week, top men
in the public relations field will take a
major step toward effective Self-regula-
ton by initiating the first program to
"accredit" public relations counselors
who meet specific standards of ethics,
education, training and experience.
The accreditation program will be an
nounced at the annual convention of the
Public Relations Society of America, the
professions national association to which
4,5OO% corporations executives specializing
in public relations and independent oun
sellers belong. While it must be accepted
by the counsel members, approval is
taken for granted.
The association will set up stiff pre-
liminary qualifications for candidates for
accreditation and then will require the
candidates to pass written and oral
exams extending over three days. 1t will
distinguish between qualified and UNEQUAL
flied public relations counselors by award
ing "PRSA accreditation" to individuals
who earn it and it will inaugurate a
nationwide campaign to educate bust
nessmen and the general public to the
meaning Of the distinction.
This will represent the associations
first attempt to prevent the entry into the
field Of unframed, INSCRIPTIONS men and
women and to eliminate those whose
borderline and even illegal activities
have too frequently blackened the repu-
tations Of everybody in public relations.
Its one Of the most important things
the profession has ver DONE" says
Mrs. Denny GriSwold, publisher and
founder of the 20-year-old Public Rela-
tons News" oldest and most widely
circulated newsletter in the field.
The warnings have been clear that if
public relations practitioners did not
move to police themselves, the govern
ment would force policing on them.
The profession is acting for itself"
The development is the latest in an
overwhelming drive by thoughtful leaders
in the financial and business commune
ties to strengthen their codes of ethics
and to raise standards of operation on
their own : and the drive is a direct
result of the critical report by the Sc
c%urities & Exchange Commission on the
grave abuses in the stock markets,
in public relations and in financial re-
porting. Of course, some organizations

In 1860, endorsing the Ameri-

Spiritual Persp ective

This is what more than one per-
son has discovered. Similarly he
has found that in lifting his eyes
up unto the hills-"from whence
cometh my help" as the Psalmist
put it-he attained a spiritual as
well as physical perspective.
Certainly, looking upward is
the way to find help. One does not
find it by looking downward be-
cause that position itself bespeaks
detection, defeatism and pessi-
mism. AS looking upward provides
the far view, SO does looking down.
ward result in the short view. And
this short view misses much. The
short view is why a person cannot
see the forest for the trees, as an
old saying has it.
But back off, look down from
an elevation and one sees not trees
as such but a forest in all its mas
sive beauty and splendor, another
of Gods gifts to mankind. There
is something soothing, masterful
and comforting in beholding such
a panorama.
AS always, it's the perspective
that counts-the perspective hat
comes in remembering the song of
the Psalmist II will lift up
mine eyes unto the hills from
whence cometh my help; my help
cometh from the Lord who made
heaven and earth"

was sad. In a way she a d

Smith in West Virginia, were
parcel to a world that never
was.
Brick, a redheaded Negro,
used to judge the success Of her
Paris saloon by counting the
kings she had in the joint, and
one night she ran the tab up to
five.

off dissolution on a steady diet

The world was certainly Elsa's

the art of the hustle; somehow
she could always produce Cole
Porter to play or Noel Coward
to recite or Gertrude Lawrence
to be amusing. IF you needed a
couple of kings to fill the
hand Elsa would rustic up the

It is true that she came a

Meaningful as we'll as beautiful
are these words from the Psalm
ist: Il will lift up mine eyes unto
the hills from whence cometh my
help; my help cometh from the
Lord, who made heaven and
earth"
The Bible makes many refer
enceS to hills, mountains and
height. Not only is there a como
tation of strength in hills and
mountains but one of expanded
vision from height. And with
vision there is wisdom. Significant
it is that the Master often went up
into the mountains to mediate
and pray. And it was on the side
Of a mountain that He gave the
sermon that has become a model
for the perfect life, or as near per-
feet as it is possible for mortalS to
live it.
From the advantage of eleva-
ton, such as from hills and noun
tains, it is possible to see things in
proper perspective. All need that
sort of perspective at times, the
far view, as some call it. The
denser atmosphere of the earth
has a way of d~istorting and mag
nifying problems. But, looking on
those problems from afar-at a
downward angle, SO to speak-they
appear in a different perspective,
thus yielding to solution.

concluded that we must pay and
pay and pay for these old sins
even unto the second, the third
and the fourth generation. Es-
Sentially American policy a )
been this: Since Latin America
is poor and backward, the Unit
ed States is exclusively to blame.
Ergo, we must shovel out aid
and yet more aid. But we must
never demand much for it in
return, not even a decent re-
Spect from the beneficiaries.
So We have gone on year On
year swallowing Latin insults
and Latin ineptitude; and, in
Cuba, swallowing the establish
ment in this very hemisphere Of
an armed and hostile Commu-
mist state. Why? Because, hav-
ing tirelesS regard to our p a
sins, we must never, never "in-
tervene in the affairs Of the
countries to the south.
How, then, do we get off the
wrong road and onto the right
road? Well, we begin by con-
sidering or own interests, an
awareneSs that Latin liking
for us is vapidly worthless until
it is preceded by Latin respect
for us. We begin by cracking
down on seizures of American
investments made in good faith.
We proceed by insisting upon
our right and our unavoidable
duty to lead this hemisphere,
not merely to bankroll it like
some soft, indulgent good-time
Yankee sugar daddy.
This is the only way that can
end in strength and honorable
candor In this hemisphere. And
it is the only way that could,
just possibly, end at length also
in the defeat of the forces of
political diSunion and economic
chaos that are playing into So
Wet hands.

People Want Leadership Change

WASHINGTON, - President
Kennedy would be overwhelm-
ingly defeated if the preSiden-
tial election were held today and
the standards Of judgment and
the system prevailing in other
English : speaking Democracies
such as Canada or Great
Britain - were applied.
For the Democratic Party,
which holds 81 per cent of the
membership of the Senate and
almost 60 per cent of the House
Of Representatives, has failed
after more than 10 months of
continuous sessions to pass the
legislative program proposed by
its titular leader, President Ken
nedy.
The truth is the chosen repre-
S~entativeS of the Democratic
Party have been unwilling to
use their clear majority of votes
to adopt the recommendations
Of the President, either because
the voters of the country do not
approve or because the legisla-
tors have themselves mistaken
ly interpreted the wishes Of the
people.
When a party in power under
the parliamentary system fails,
1t is customary for the nation to
turn that party out Of power in
an election called whenever the
voters really demand it. Under
the American system, there is
no such wav to fix resnon~'"ili-
ty. 1t cannot be determined i'm
medlately whether the PreSl-
dent is at fault for having fail
ed to exercise effective leader
ship within his party. Nor can
1t be determined for two years
after an election whether Cong
reSS has really been needing
the voices of the citizens in dis
approval of the Presidents poll
cies or whether the Democrats
in Congress have misconstrued
the wishes of the people in hold
ing up many of the measures
proposed by the executive
branch of the government.
1t has often been argued that,
in the United States, a president
who cannot control his own par
ty in Congress can look to the
opposition party to gain enough
votes so that a coalition will
form a majority and adopt his
program. But the fact is that
an unorganized coalition Of
Republicans and Democrats in
both houses of Congress h
actually emerged on several con-
troversial questions as an OPP
position majority to block pas
sage or demand substantial
changes in pending measures
before they can even be con-
sidered for passage.
The Democratic Party in Con-
gress today, moreover, not only
possesses a clear majority but
controls every committee in both
houses. In committees, too, a
combination of two parties can
block action and actually Is
doing so today in many instanc-
es. So, for all practical purpos-
es, the coalition majority, is in
effect, repudiating the policies
of the Democratic Party leader
President Kennedy.
In other countries, this repu-
diation would be accepted as suf-
ficient reason for asking the
country by its votes to decide
at once whether a new prime
minister should be chosen from
the opposition party or whether
the existing majority party
