Wasta, (UP)—State chief executives took time off from the weighty topics of their 45th annual governors’: conference here today to greet returning Korean War veterans from their home states. * ; \ Then they prepared to discuss the mounting cost of public education at a panel discussion this afternoon. While the primary theme of this four-day conference has been a clamor for a return to strong states’ rights, the discussion on education was expected to lead into an argument for turning over more responsibility from the state to the school district level. President Eisenhower made Tuesday the big day of the conference with an informal address supporting the governors’ demands for more states rights. Mr/ Eisenhower also warned that the spread of Communism in the Far East must be halted. He said the U. S. was allotting $400,000.000 to help stop the Comxiiunists in the) Far East “not as a give-away prograta’’ but as the “cheapest way” to safeguard U. S. security. This nation is greatly concerned about the situation in Southeast Asia, Mr. Eisenhower said, because the south corner of Asia, especially India with its 350,000,000 people, is the last sector in that area not under the control of the Kremlip.
