Food Parley Hears British Historian

WASHINGTON (UPI (—Historian Arnold J. Toynbee told a 100nation food conference today that when mankind has conquered pestilence, war and crop failure it will still face a fourth peril—the “thundering tramp”, of overpopulation. His two-fold solution: —Establish a worldwide agency to administer production and distribution of food. —Extensive birth control. “We have been god-like in our planned breeding of our domesticated plants and animals, but we have been rabbit-like in our unplanned breeding of ourselves,” the British histo'rian told the World Food Congress sponsored by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).. Must Increase Greatly Toynbee said world food production would have to increase 200 per cent to adequately feed the world’s population by the year 2,000. “Even if the human race were to succeed in breaking the bounds of its native planet it would reach a limit to its food supply somewhere at some date, supposing that it succeeded in abolishing war and pestilence without taking any further steps,” he said. Agriculture Secretary Orville L. Freeman, who also addressed the conference, painted a rosier food picture. ■’ “Science and technology have now; in this generation, opened the door to a potential abundance for all,” he said. Freeman said it was “one of the most fortunate coincidences of history” that at a time when developing nations were in a “takeoff” stage in which they desperately needed food, the advanced nations were producing an bundance. Historian Disagrees Toynbee, however, said this condition was making rich countries grow richer and poor countries grow poorer because the poor nations could not afford to buy the surpluses. The historian said man was depriving himself of the benefits of technology by “dividing up the surface of our planet into a larger and larger number of smaller »nd smaller states.” « ' “All the progress of civilization,” Toynbee said, has been based on some people;, being free Three From Beme Graduated Monday Three Berne students were among 38 seniors who received degrees during commencement exercises at Fort Wayne Bible college Monday .

As Newschart shows, the congressionally imposed debt “limit” has obligingly been raised every time the national debt ' approached it. Most recently, Congress was asked to raise the limit to $309 billion. It may be lifted to $320 billion by the fend of the year. One advantage of a debt limit: It forces the administration to justify its spending before Congress and attracts national attention*

from the drudgery of food growing. He warned that this “minimum of leisure” was in danger of being wiped out in the long run by the population vs. food problem. “The human race’s prospects of survival,” he said, “werp considerably better when we were defenseless against tigers than they are today, when we have become defenseless against ourselves.” I. U. Scholarships To Three In Area Rita Norquest, 138 Harvester Lane; Steven Schlickman, R. R. 2, and David Swickard, 528 Limberlost Trail, were among more than 600 high school seniors who have been awarded scholarships to attend Indiana University next September. The grants to incoming freshmen range from remission of fees to a full year’s expenses, according to Donovan J. Allen, director of scholarships and financial aids. Many of the scholarships, awarded on a competitive basis through tests and class standing, have been made possible through gifts, grants and bequests to the I.U. Foundation. The state scholarships, established over 100 years ago by the Indiana legislature, and the special and merit awards provided by the I.U. board of trustees, are fee remission awards. Low cost room and board, coupled with part-time jobs, is made possible by residence scholarships. Miss Norquest received an Indiana University scholarship; Schlickman a special scholarship, and Swickard both the association of Indiana University chemists and special scholarships.

Swimming Pool To Open Here Monday The Decatur public swimming pool will open Monday at 1 p.m., weather permitting, street commissioner Adolph Kolter said Tuesday evening. The pool had new pipes installed last year and other work was done. Hubert Zerkel, Jr., Lincoln schoool principal, will again serve as lifeguard. Hours, regulations, etc., will appear later this week in an advertisement in the Daily Democrat. Unusual Problem Given To Council An interesting problem was brought up at the city council meeting Tuesday night by councilman Carl Gerber concerning the appointment of Herb Banning to the Decatur school board. It was discovered that Banning had never been reappointed to the board last July when his threeyear term was up. and has served the past year without having been reappointed. After discussion on the matter, however, the memory of city attorney Robert S. Anderson help_*d to ease the minds of the council. ■ Anderson explained that the reason Banning was not reappointed to the local school board last year was due to the fact that the council had appointed him and Dr. James M. Burk to the new North Adams community schools board. At the time the council did not appoint Banning to the Decatur school board as members felt it could give the impression that it

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 5, 1963

did not recognize the new consolidation board. Not wishing to give this impression, the council had deferred Banning's reappointment—and the matter of the North Adams community schools is still in the courts. Anderson explained that legally Banning was originally appointed four years ago (he is now serving the second year of his second term) to serve until a successor was appointed. Although he was not reappointed, a successor was not appointed, so that Banning is still officially and legally a member of the Decatur school board. The council asked clerk-treasur-er Laura Bosse to contact city schools superintendent Gail M. Grabill and Banning to discuss their views on the matter as to whether the council should leave the situation as it is now or make the reappointment of Banning. Scholastic Honors To Local Graduates Constance Baxter, and Mrs.. Elizabeth Kocher Bond, both of Decatur, were among the members of thjis year’s Indiana .Diversity graduating class who received their degrees with scholastic honors. At Indiana University's 134th annual commencement Monday, 178 students were recognized for their academic records while in the university. Eleven students received their diplomas with highest distinction, 33 with high distinction and 134 with distinction. Miss Baxter was graduated with a B.S. degree in education with distinction, and Mrs. Bond, A.B. degree in chemistry with distinction.
