One Third of Country's
Youth Never Finish HIS

Nearly one-third of the youth
In this country never finish
high school. Almost another
third stop their education
right after high school.
These figures aren't very
encouraging, and DR.. William
E. Mcdaniel, Director of Res =
ident Instruction of the School
of Agriculture at the University
of Delaware, says they're even
less encouraging in rural areas.
Mcdaniel says the demand

s'No" Vote Won't End
Government In Agriculture

Editor, Peoples Voice:
A mo" vote won't take the govern
ment out of agriculture but it may take
you oui Many misleading statements
have led people to think that a mo,
vote will take the government out of
agriculture, but the issue at stake is
price support and the loss of effective
production quotas. mo" means that
price supports on wheat will drop to
so per cent of parity for those that
stay within their acreage aEotments.
This would give us approximately S1.20
per bushel and that means very little
profit
What would happen to your farm if
the mo- vote carries? Arithmetic on a
100 acre farm, worked on county
buShel average, shows THAT a loss of
approximately $1,000 per hundred acres
would be realized.
If our government were out of a,gri-
culture, we would have more headaches
than we now have. Many people claim
that they would make more money on
their high quality spring wheat if
controls were abandoned. This cannot
be because our present price support
is a floor and not a. ceiling. Abundance
drops prices and creates excessive sur
plus which could push wheat prices
down to an all time low.
Low prices would hurt the economy
of the State of Montana because If
wheat sold for around $1.0O a bushel.
1T would be $4S,0O0,OOO Less spent on
main street in our state.
Lack of finances hurts the entire
economy and many of our county state
and national offices would put people
out of employment because of lack of
funds to operate.
Let us take a look ait a. few of the
programs that receive subsidies be-
cause of the monies obtained through
agriculture, which is the number one
industry in Montana. Defense rates

''Rags and FRANKS by college students

Kirk goes ON to describe vandalism
by students at Indiana and other state
universities. The crlprits. he says,
are youths who have no business in
college; they are bored and wretched-

of vague resentment against any kind
of discipline. Under cover of night

educational EXODUS in Montana?
Luke Wright in the GREAT FALLS
TRIBUNE points out that the future
holds financing problems for higher
education in Montana; that the g.
mill levy, which is the backbone of
the University System, must be evalu-
ated as a source of income within
the next four years; that a decision
must be made as to where additional
revenue will come from if the sys-
tenn is going ito survive; that we may
have to have more money from the
general fund.
But the history of Montana is re-
plete with many a crisis over financ-
ing of the University System and we
have all put our shoulders to the
wheel. discussed and debated how we
were going to take care of the situa-
tion and have done something about
it.
While money can't be ignored as
an issue, it seems it must be deeper
than that. We need but reflect on
the reaction to attempts DR.. Renne
made to call attention to what was
happening TO higher education in
Montana following the 1851 legisla-
tive session. With the radical right
in the administrative saddle Renne
was getting nowhere and it is con-
ceivable he wasn't going to watch his
wonderful institution crumble, so he
left.
President Newburn's resignation
was in the hands of the Governor
at the time of the April Board of
meeting. At the April
board meeting Newburn gave re-
port on his investigation into the
Borden affair. There is little rea-
SON to believe the Governor was salts :

If this is SO the cause of higher

nave been served if Newburn had
made an issue and resigned at that
time; but who is to judge what it is
becoming hero over?
Montana people have shown little
for educational heroes.

States Rights and
Senators Rights

On May 5, in Washington, J. Edgar
Hoover asked us to ponder a para
dox: the methods of law enforcement
and crime detection have improved
immensely since he took over the
FBI 40 years ago. Despite this, crime
has been consistently on the increase.
In the last five years crime has risen
nearly five times as fast as our rapid
ly growing population.
What is the reason? Mr.. Hoover's
answer: "a lack of public interest
and support particularly with re-
gard to law enforcement and the adj
ministration of justice-underlie

actly right: "At least half of the
students on our campuses don't have
the foggiest notion of why they are
enrolled in college" I turned to the
morning paper to get my mind off
the unpleasant subject. But there on
the front page of the Muscular was
a story princeton at Play. Believe
