Urges Educational Revolution In U.S. By GAY PAULEY UPI Women's Editor NEW YQRK <UPI> — A woman president of a college today charged, families with spending for the luxuries of a new car or television set and shorting the kids on the luxury of a good education. Millicent Carey Mclntosh, the outspoken president of Barnard College for Women, spoke out for an "educational revolution" which would change U.S. spending habits on schooling. She said that indirectly it is the teacher, settling for a low salary, who is paying for the luxuries of __ $50.00 Savings Bond to be given to a lucky baby Saturday, August 8, 9 p. m.

an hour-long conference in Washington, D. C. Tiiey agreed that no one was trying to split the Party. The armistice ended three weeks of bitter public and private intra-party warfare between Butler and the Congressional leaders from Texas.

"Nearly every independent day “Nearyl every independent day school and many independent colleges are afraid to raise tuition to meet what education should cost for fear of pricing themselves out of the market," she said. "But the parents <who.se children are> in these same schools and colleges are Willing to pay more than twice what they did in 1939 for automobiles, electrical appliances and other ‘requirements’ to maintain their high standard of living." "They will borrow money to buy a house or a car, but are horrified if it is suggested that they take out a loan for a college education.” Mrs. Mclntosh’s stand is spelled out in a signed article in Barnard’s current alumnae magazine. , She said that at a time when our younger generation is increasing by leaps and bounds, the nation is and will continue to be faced “with a major shortage” at ’al teaching levels. ■ "Most Americans will agree that the situation is deplorable.” she wrote, “but they go on hoping that somehow the teachers will appear . . . and that their children will be delivered what is assumed to be their natural birthright: a first-rate education at low cast.” One solution is the increased I tuition, S«e> said. But she sug--1 gested that "long range financ-

Irritation Causes Calves Lose Hair A skin irritation causing loss of hair on three of the four Angus calves shown at the Adams county 4-H fair by Sue and Sandra Strickler, daughters of Gerald Strickler, local Angus breeder and auctioneer, may have been: caused by fly spray applied too colse to the animal, sheriff Merle Affolder reported today. As the animals were being led into the show ring Wednesday it was noticed that the skin was irritated. Immediately after the judging the area was washed. Later that evening some hair began to fall, and the sheriff was called to see what had happened. Since the corrosive material was already washed off, and the area covered with a soothing oint.ment, the sheriff could not determine positively what caused the injury to the three animals. However, many farmers have accidentally burned animals by applying fly spray too heavily, or dripping it from the can on the animals, and this may have happened. All three were injured on their left shoulders. The Stricklers abandoned plans to show the animals at other fairs in the area, and sold four at the auction, the grand champion bringing a record price. — ~. - ... ——— —- ■■ ■' ■ ing” is up to the parents. The “ideal” she said would be to take out college insurance at the birth of a child, to start a special savings account to cover education cost, or to make “long term loans” either for parents or students. She cited this statistic to show the cost of education is small when considered in terms of return on investment. One recent study showed the “current college graduate may look forward to a life-time income of about $750,000, a figure which makes a four-year loan of $4,000 seem small indeed.”

Cuba A Communist Propaganda Center By LYLE C. WILSON United Press International WASHINGTON (UPI) —ls some political and lay observers seem to be snake-bit with fear that Dr. Fdel Castro’s Cuba may becofme a Communist center of poisonous activity, there are certain related facts which merit consideration. For example, there are the facte related in a just-published book by R. Hart Phillips. “Cuba, Island of Paradox” is the book's name, published by McDowell, Obolensky. Miss Phillips has lived in Cuba since 1920 and since 1937 she has been a New York Times staf correspondent there. The significant facte in Miss Phillips’ book are that Cuba was a major Communist center of poisonous anti - American activity and not so long ago, either. A Propaganda Center The time wa*s in the mid-1940s after Dr. Ramon Grau San Martin had succeeded Gen. Fulgencio Batista as president in an election which even Batista’s enemies conceded was wholly honest. Grau San Martin was antiCommunist, had promised during his campaign to take strong measures against the Cuban Reds. Cuba’s Communists, however, persuaded the new president that they were good citizens and he decided after taking office to accept their support. That was in 1944. By 1946, Miss Phillips relates, the Education Association of Cuba was sounding an alarm that Communist Party members were gaining control of all teachers' associations in the island. They were indoctrinating the Cuban youth. “Cuba had bcome,” Miss Phillips writes, “one of the focal pointe of Communist propaganda in the Western Hemisphere and a center from which orders went to other countries. "Schools for agitators were being operated and anti - American programs were being initiated. Every one of the (Cuban) unions was headed by Communists. The Communists controlled the powerful radio station Mil Diez, Cuba’s only free channel, and the daily paper Hoy, which published direct propaganda cables from Moscow.” Both Popular Idols The Communist Party line was this: The United States was both seeking to exploit all of Latin America and, with the atomic bomb, actively was planning another war to obtain control of the entire world. The propaganda password was: Yankee imperialism. The purpose was to arouse sufficient anger against the United States to destroy U.S. influence throughout Latin America. It is not necessary to suggest that because such was the situation with Grau San Martin in the presidential palace that the new president was a Communist. It is, not necessary to suggest, either, that Castro is a Communist because a somewhat similar situation seems now to be developing in Cuba. The best - informed Americans, including President Eisenhower, are careful to avoid making any such accusation. Castro and Grau San Martin both entered office as extravagantly popular idols. Neither could have repudiated the Cuban Communists and made it stick. The fact which is disquieting in the United States is that Grau San Martin did not do that, with well known results, as set down by Miss Phillips.

Federal Space Agency Plans Moon Projects WASHINGTON <UPD — The Federal Space Agency today disclosed plans to send a seismograph to the moon in five or six years to see what it is made of and how its crust is behaving. The agency also is ordering other rocket-borne instruments to check lunar radioactivity and measure the density of charged gas particles in the neighborhood of the moon. These projects were disclosed in a list of contracts, totaling nearly 16 million dollars, awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (ANSAS) in June. One of the contracts, for ‘ 390 million dollars, went to General Electric Co. for study of a new engine idea which may hasten the day of rockets with millions of pounds of thrust. Another will finance a system for using plants to provide oxygen for space travelers. The lunar seismograph will be jointly developed by Columbia University and the California Institute of Technology. Each received a $130,000 contract for the first year's work. The total cost may run around a million dollars. By means of reverse rockets, the seismograph would be gently deposited on the moon in a socalled soft landing which NASA said it may attempt, if everything goes as planned, “within five to six years.” The seismograph is expected to be a rugged instrument weighing 10 to 20 pounds. What it learns about the structure of the moon and its quake activity, if any, will be reported to earth by radio. Seismographs are instruments for detecting and recording shock waves kicked off by such things as quakes or explosions. Analysis of these waves throws light on the nature of the material through which they move. Young People Attend Church Conference Fourteen youths from the Trinity Evengelical United Brethren church attended the senior youth conference of the denomination at Oakwood park on Lake Wawasee. Several held responsible positions. Kay Wynn, Elaine Cochran, Linda Jackson and John McAhren served as discussion group leaders in Bible study. John McAhren served as vice president of the Fort Wayne district and on the honor council with Kay Wynn and Elaine Cochran. Lester Sautbine, Mrs. Don Cochran and the Rev. J.f O. Penrod were adult counselors and discussion group advisers. Those in attendance included Becky Jackson, Charlene Feasel, Maureen Shook, Karen Grice, Onalee Barkley, Chryl Bollenbacher, George Kiess, Gas»y Feasel, John McAhren, Linda Jackson, Lester Sautbine, Mrs. Don Cochran and the Rev. J. O. Penrod. Too Much Bluing When you have inadverentently given some of your laundry an overdose of bluing, wet the stained portions with some alcohol and launder the whole thing over again.

100 Persons Injured In Train Derailment MENOMONIE, Wis. (UPD — Ten persons still were hospitalized today with Injuries received when a speeding passenger train derailed at the edge of a 100-foot cliff. At least 100 persons were injured in all. many of them children returning home from summer camps. Forty-seven persons were taken to Menomonie Memorial Hospital. Mrs. Bertha Risskin, 78, Chicago, was in critical condition. She received only bruises in the accident but suffered a heart attack on the way to the hospital. I * The Chicago and Northwestern Twin Cities 400 bound from Minneapolis to Chicago was derailed Thursday afternoon while speedi ing through the western Wisconsin countryside. Seven cars of the 11-car train left the tracks and three of them slid halfway down a 100-foot cliff before coming to rest against a clump of trees. Some crew members said they felt a bump just before the accident. Motorists driving on a highway which parallels the tracks said the rails seemed to slide out from under the train. There was speculation a rail i might have snapped from the heat, causing the accident. The diesel locomotive units and three cars remained on the tracks. They continued on to Chicago and arrived early today, unloading a weary but thankful group of passengers. Two Berne Projects Approved By State INDIANAPOLIS (UPD — The Indiana Stream Pollution Control Board Thursday approved final plans for sewers and sewage treatment facilities worth about eight million dollars and ordered three towns to abate pollution. The board ordered Fortville to stop pollution Sept. 1. 1961; Fowler, July 1, 1961, and Griffith, Oct. 1, 1961. Hearings were scheduled to consider alleged pollution of Lick Creek by Hartford City on Sept. 22, and the Wabash River by Terre Haute on Sept. 23. Sewer and sewage projects were approved for Berne, Ellettsville. Fort Wayne, Middletown, Thorntown, Wabash, i Logansport State Hospital. Columbia City, Zionsville, Sunman, Markleville, Holiday Addition (Marion Co.), Peru Mobile Home Park, Concord Twp. (Elkhart Co.), and Candlelite Village (Marion Co.). The board also said fish kill investigations . were made in recent weeks on Prairie Creek in Lebanon, Wabash River near Logansport, Little Blue River near Mays, Little Pigeon Creek near Dale, Cedar Creek near Waterloo, Simmons Creek near Dublin, White Lick Creek near Mooresville, Indian Creek near Corydon, Fall Creek in Indianapolis, Hawk’s Lake near Culver, Lick Creek near Hartford City, and Muscatatuck River below Austin. In most cases, said the board, corrections have been made or construction is underway to forestall future recurrences. Trade in a good town — Decatur.

(UPD — Willie Cross, 12 , South Bend, drowned Thursday when he swam to the middle of a lagoon, which was marked with "no swimming” signs near his home and was unable to make it back to shore. SIOO,OOO Loaned To Farmers Under FHA Families in Adams, Blackford, Jay and Wells counties borrowed approximately SIOO,OOO in loan funds from the Farmers Home Administration during the fiscal year ending June 30, according to a report this week by Donald A. Norquest, the agency’s county supervisor. During the year borrowers returned to the U. S. treasury $124,870, of which $23,585 was interest. Operating borrowers of FHA used their loan funds to pay for feed, seed, tractor fuel and other items needed to carry out their regular farm and to buy livestock and machinery needed to put their farming programs on a sounder basis. Farm housing loan funds were used to buil<£ or modernize farm houses and essential farm buildings and to install water .systems. All four counties served by the local office located in Room 4, K. of C. building in Decatur were declared last summer to be in the disaster area as a result of flood waters. Consequently, several thousands of dollars were loaned to emergency loan borrowers at a special 3% rate of interest.
