Goldwater on Education (Continued) Yesterday we gave the four reasons why Conservatives of the Goldwater variety oppose Federal aid to education. The first two reasons which they gave, we showed by just a few of dozens of historical examples, just were not true. In other words, the Federal government, since the time of the development of the Constitution, has actively cooperated with the states in Federal aid to education, from primary to college and post-graduate level. And, in the second place, this has gone on continuously since our nation was founded, without the slightest hint that Federal control, that hated bugaboo of the Conservative, had crept in. The third and fourth points of the Conservative statement is that the need for classrooms has been grossly exaggerated, and is decreasing, and that the local governments are better able to provide additional funds than the Federal government. Now, the basic difference between local and Federal taxing methods must be understood to appreciate the meaning of these two statements. The Conservatives are actually saying that it would be better to increase the property tax load of the individual than to increase his net income tax load. We doubt this. Ability to pay taxes today is based almost solely on net income, rather than ownership of property. Property taxes hurt the 7 individual who can least afford to pay, while net income tax falls on those who are earning money under our form of government and capitalism. It is fairer for taxes to fall on those earning than on those owning their own homes, autos, and farms, but temporarily out of work, or widowed, or, in the case of farmers, in depressed markets. Anyone who studied the projected population figures from the present school districts of Adams county knows that more school room space will be badly needed within the next five years. Those who favor the Conservative position favor paying for it by increasing property taxes. Those who favor the Federal position favor paying for it through the net income tax. In showing their comparison between Federal and local debts, the Conservatives make their usual mistake of showing the national debt “per man, woman, and child.” This is completely fallacious. The debt rests on income. The tax that pays it is based on income. It is a graduated tax. It does not fall equally, nor should it, on every man, woman, and child. It falls on those who earn. The burden of our government should, of course, be borne by those who profit most under it. The debt should be expressed in terms of projected taxable net income. When it is expressed in this manner, it is no more alarming than the average mortgaged debt of any person in the country. After all, the government is in no wise insolvent, despite the rumbling and roaring of the foggy-minded Goldwater Conservatives. It, alone, owns enough property to be more than solvent. And it has the existing power to tax the income of those who p make their living under this form of government. If the Goldwater Conservatives are as ashamed as they are ignorant of our Federal government’s past, present, and future position in education, which they admit in their statement, . perhaps they should move elsewhere, rather than attempt to confuse and rattle those of us who love and appreciate our great American Democratic heritage. / Editorial Writer Today Dick D.

Compare U.S. And Russian Space Flight

By United Press International A comparison between Russia’s first manned space flight and America’s: The Mission: Russia’s Yuri Gagarin circled the earth in 89.1 minutes in a 5-ton space ship named Vostok, at heights ranging from 109 to 187 miles. His entire flight from liftoff to descent lasted about 108 minutes, and his speed hit at least 18,000 miles per hour. The American shot was not an attempt to orbit the earth. It involved a R 4 ton space capsule designed to go only 115 miles high and 290 miles out over the Atlantic in a total flight time of about 15 minutes. Its speed: About 4,500 miles per hour. The capsule: The Russian space cabin, despite its mass, apparently was rather simple. The American capsule — much smaller — was crammed with instruments and built-in safety devices. The Control: The Russian craft was controlled throughout its flight from the ground by radio signal. America's astronaut had a certain amount of control over his space home. He could deliberately control the pitch and yaw of the craft and control the firing of the retro-

rockets which begin re-entry. The Becket: The Russian rocket, necessarily powerful enough to put the heavy space ship in orbit, had about 800,000 pounds of thrust In its several stages. The American Redstone rocket with 78,000 pounds of thrust is a refined version of the old German V 2 war rocket and could not put the space capsule in orbit. The Communications: Russia’s Gagarin broadcast a few ecstatic messages about his “high spirits.’’ America’s astronaut limits his communication to the laconic jargon of the pilot such as: “Manual roll on. . .rolling left to twenty. . .returning right to zero.”
