EXCERPTS FROM THE REPUBLICAN PARTY PLATFORM
Reprinted From NEA Journal
We commend the objective 'of the Republican administration in
sponsoring the National Defense Education Act to stimulate improve
ment of study and teaching in selected fields at the local level .
Toward the goal of fullest possible educational opportunity for
every American, we pledge these actions:
Federal support of the primary and secondary schools by a pro
gram of federal aid for school construction — pacing it to the real
needs of individual school districts in states and territories, and re
quiring state approval and participation.
Stimulation of actions designed to update and strengthen vocation
al education for both youth and adults.
Support of efforts to make adequate library facilities available to
all our citizens.
Continued support of programs to strengthen basic research in
education; to discover the best methods for helping handicapped,
retarded, and gifted children to realize their highest potential.
The federal government can also play a part in stimulating higher
education. Constructive action would include:
The federal program to assist in construction of college housing.
Extension of the federal student-loan program and graduate-
fellowship program.
Consideration of means through tax laws to help offset tuition
costs.
Continued support of the East-West Center for Cultural and Tech
nical Interchange in Hawaii . . .
Federal matching grants to help states finance the cost of state
surveys and inventories . . .
Provision should be made for . . . the creation of a permanent,
top-level commission to advise the president and the secretary of
Health, Education, and Welfare . . .
There is a temporary shortage of classrooms for our elementary
and secondary schools in a limited number of states. But this
shortage, due to the vigilant action of state legislatures and local
school boards, is not increasing, but is decreasing.
We believe, moreover, that any large plan of federal aid to edu
cation, such as direct contributions to or grants for teachers’ salaries,
can only lead ultimately to federal domination and control of our
schools, to which we are unalterably opposed.
EXCERPTS FROM THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY PLATFORM
Reprinted From NEA Journal
“The right to a good education.” — America’s young people are our
greatest resources for the future. Each of them deserves the educa
tion which will best develop his potentialities.
We shall act at once to help in building the classrooms and em
ploying the teachers that are essential if the right to a good education
is to have genuine meaning for all the youth of America in the decade
ahead.
As a national investment in our future we propose a program
of loans and scholarship grants to assure that qualified young Ameri
cans will have full opportunity for higher education, at the institutions
of their choice, regardless of the income of their parents.
The new Democratic administration will end eight years of official
neglect of our educational system.
America’s education faces a financial crisis . . .
Only the federal government is not doing its part. For eight years,
measures for the relief of the educational crisis have been held up
by the cynical maneuvers of the Republican Party in Congress and
the White House.
We believe that America can meet its educational obligations only
with generous federal financial support, within the traditional
framework of local control. The assistance will take the form of
federal grants to states for educational purposes they deem most
pressing, including classroom construction of academic facilities as
well as dormitories at colleges and universities.
We pledge further federal support for all phases of vocational
education for youth and adults; for libraries and adult education;
for realizing the potential of educational television; and for exchange
of students and teachers with other nations.
As part of a broader concern for young people, we recommend
establishment of a Youth Conservation Corps, to give underprivileged
young people a rewarding experience in a healthful environment.

Hypocrisy is folly. It is much
easier, safer and pleasanter to be
