Need For Educational Aid
Tint an education for all people
in a de not-racy is a fundamental
i mlit inherent in tliat system was
i' greed upon by noted American
Broadcasting Commentator Edward
P. Morgan and former assistant to
the Attorney General William Me
Govern In an informal discussion
l.eld las: niyht in Morchoad Plane
tarium. The discussion was the last
event in the YW-YMCA forum on
the topic: "Human 1 1 i ; 1 t s ; Their
Challenge to America.
Morgan expressed doubt, however,
that all students should be given
an education all the way through
college and said that some sort of
willingness and intellectual criteria
should be set tip to ferret out those
incapb.ile of college work.
McGovern felt that such a system
would create an intclloi(ial oli
garchy and felt that a college educa
tion should Ik guaranteed to all
those wanting attain this goal.
Citing the case of British concern
for chit rights. Morgan expressed
the feeling that education of the
British school might be fundamental
ly involved in the average Briton's
concern fur the rights of others, lie
thought that this might be one of
the weaknesses in the American
c (local ional sys'em.
McGnvcni stressed the need ol
paving teachers jnore money and
trying 'o equalize their social status
v it h other be'ter paid members of
the community. He cited West
Hartford's efforts to be'ter its
educational system by bettering the
teacher's wages so that they could
be equal to the average wage level
of the community.
The question of whether it takes
a sputnik or something milder was
brought up by Morgan, who pointed
out the lethargy of Americans in
taking the problems of education
seriously.
Earlier in the day both men at
tended several classes and Mc
Govern spoke to a small seminar
group on the relationship of the
U. S. security system to civil rights.
He said that the entire security
system should be thrown out, and
that the U .S. should have in its
s'.ead an efficient counter-espionage
force.
