l-SECTJGN TWO PAGE SIX i SENATOR JORDAN REPORTS From WASHINGTON Washinglon —For the firjt time in the history of the United States, Congress has annroved an ambitious program of financial as sistance to education. There has been a great deal of. controversy about such a program < for quite a number of year-; be- 1 cause education traditionally been financed and operated pri vately at the local level. There j is no doubt that the program is an 1 almost direct result of Russia forging ahead of the United States in the race for outer space last Fall with the successful launch-, ing of satellites. I supported and voted for the legislation which authorizes ac tion bv the Federal government in stepping up eduoat'onal activity in the fields of science, mathe matics. and languages. 1 did so because I feel very, deeply that the threat world com-, munism now presents for freedom and democracy goes far beyond intercontinental missiles and H-, bombs. The threat of commu nism in the fields of economics and education ;« Just as great as in military might. It is well and aood for us to be proud of our educational svstemj in the United S'ates. is no] doubt about it, we have perform-j ed miracles. But we have to take the bit-* ter with the sweet. While we I have the modern school buildings.! the very best physical facilities that men and roach'lies dan maVp. j we have been lagging behind in, the sciences, mathematics, and th languages. For many school children, sc ; ence and math and the language are the'tough courses. These ar< the precision courses that demand studv and hard work if they are mastered. Too often, I feel that all of us a, Hospital Patients|| l J. Visiting Hours: 10 to 11 A. M„ 2 to 4 P. M„ and 6 to 8 P. M. Children Under 12 Years of Ap» Not Permitted To Visit Patients.

Too often, we have taken the easy way ot. A pronounced deficiency in the number of scientists and engineers has been the result. I would have never supported the bill if there had been any provisions in it permitting Fed eral control. The bill, as approv ed by the Senate, specifically says that there will in no way be any Federal control over the local school authorities in administer ing the program. Instead of having a direct line from Washington to the local lev el, the program specifies that all Federal funds under the program shall be turned over to the in dividual states for expenditure or transfer to the individuals It ; s a program that offers specific and effective incentives for more high school graduates to enter scien- Pfic fields and do graduate and special work in these fields. Because of the nature of ‘the program approved bv Congress, I siheerelv f" P ] jf w ill br ; n£ j abo ’ ut tremendously favorable reaction. By offering fellowships, grants, and loans for the purpose of pro viding more teachers and interest among students in the sciences, mathematics, and the languages a new surge of activity in these f'elds of education will certainly take place. This will be ae-omolished. I be “ve, with a minimum of expend ’mps and wthout Federal inter ference in local school affairs. I feel very strongly that the ap ■roach used in the program is a ound approach that affords an economical way to meet a subtle but fast-growdng and grave prob lem for education. Hurdle.

The group readily saw that in order for Chowan C&unty to have win ners recognized in the district and , state 4-H program that our mem- ( bers must have complete records. Miss Maidred Morris, home agent, explained to the leaders a new program known as “4-H in Action”. This W'll be re'erred to as the 4-H Deve’onment Fund 1-tor on. The North Caroling 4-H program is in desperate need of expansion, and if this develop- 1 Tnent fund materialises it will provide more and better oppor tunities for young people.
