* Washington—The 'Senate For
<fen Relations Committee has
completed hearings on the U-2
plane incident The Senate is
Mow awaiting the Committee re
port It should be helpful in
•arving to focus attention on the
feed for top-level coordination of
fr defense efforts.
: Lack Os Coordination While
} am not a member of the Com
anwee, the testimony released to
she public indicates that the U-2
incident was not wisely handled.
I does not strengthen our stand
ing in the world when a "cover
ing'” lie is national policy. I
think the Administration would
hove been wiser to have told the
truth or to have sa*d nothing.
It is hard to make everything
run smoothly tn all facets of our
national defense and intelligence
gathering systems. There ought
to be more emphasis placed on
the problem of coordination,
America's glaring lack of recent
years. Its deficiency puts us at
host in a poor psychological con
dition.
Rapid Pace—With little time
remaining before the conventions
of the Democratic and Republi
can parties, it is self-evident that
any drastic legislative proposals
ought to be put over until Janu
ary. What concerns me about
iiasty legislative action is that
such proposals as minimum wage
changes. Social Security amend-!
intents and the like by their vary!
nature need most careful study.
Both the Senate and the House
have already passed education
bills. The House adopted the
Powell amendment to its bill and
thus delayed action until some
agreement can oe reached. The
Powell amendment cannot be left
in the House bill. If it is re
tained the entire bill must be
defeated by whatever means at
our disposal because it changes
the bill from one aimed at help
ing education into one which
would be punitive. My belief is
that the Senate and ffouse Con
ferees will strike «hrs amend

ment unanimously.
Minimum wage legislation and
the Social Security amendments,
not to mention the numerous ap
propriations bills rovering for
eign aid, defense and other fed
eral activities, require adequat.
time for debate.
As a consequence of this situa
tion—and with the air charged
with politics the wisest per
formance would be for the Con
gress to put off action until 6
more calm and deliberate atmos
phere prevails. : ,
Voting And Speaking last
week I had the pleasure of de
livering two college commence
ment talks. The "(first was at
Converse College atJSpartanburg
the second was at‘Mitchell Col
lege in Statesville. As it was
necessary to be home to vote in
the primary election, these talks
fitted my schedule‘perfectly. As
a rule the Senate is taking up
legislation and voting on mat
ters which make attendance ne
cessary at the time of 'the yeai
when the schools ad colleges are
holding commencements. This
makes scheduling speaking dates
very difficult.

George Alma By rum and A1
Phillips and Ernest Ward, rep

quest, too, was held over until
the June 20 meeting.
While the Commissioners were
swamped with figures, they
pointed out that -an agricultural
building is badly needed at the
colored school, but that with de
mands for money being so heavy,
they could hardly see Where the
money was coming from for this
project. Joe Conger, Chairman
of the Eden ton School Trustees,

roving deputy sheriff to patrol
the rural area and emphasized
the need for an air conditioning
unit in the sheriff’s office.
Tax Supervisor William P.
Jones reported to the Commis
sioners that property valuation
has increased in every township.
This year, he (pointed out prop
erty valuation, with corporate
excise taxes estimated, amounts
to $21,031,257. This compares
with $20,703,087 last year.
All of the requests for appro
priations will be considered at
a special meeting of the Com
missioners Monday, June 20, at
which time they expect to set
a tentative tax rate for the new
fiscal year.

beer licenses were approved for
