'Country Only
Weak As Fears'
AFROTC Told
"Our country is only as strong
as the hopes or as weak as the
fears of its people," Chaplain Os
car L. Sylwcstcr, Capt. USAF, told
AFROTC cadets Thursday.
Chaplain Sylwestcr's speech
Tvnamics of Spiritual Leader
ship," was delivered during the
u n i fs Leadership Laboratory.
Sylwester is Chaplain at Pope Air
Force Base at Fayetteville.
The Cadets, as future leaders
of men were challenged to bring
out what "no firing squad can
kill," to "bring out what is within."
Battle for Minds
The true conflict is not between
Communism and the West, the
Chaplain emphasized, but is a
"battle for the mind." Commun
ism is an attempt to "denature
man," he stated, and it seeks to
break down the "moral fabric of
man."
Svlwester commented that while
"980 million people and one-third
of the earth's surface are under
Communist control, only per
cent of Russians are Communists."

Nam gave President Kennedy a
first-hand report on the worsening
situation in the tiny Southeast As
ian country.
The State Department said no
immediate new crisis prompted
McNamara's trip. Rather it is
part of increased U. S. efforts to
deal with a situation in which
Communist-1 e d guerrillas have
been stepping up their raids a
gainst South Viet Nam.
In a related development, the
department announced that Aver
ell Harriman, assistant secretary
of state for the Far East, would
fly to Geneva this weekend for
meetings early next week between
the three rival princes of Laos.
The princes are trying to work out
a coalition government.
At the same time, the depart
ment announced that it had re
sumed U. S. financial aid to the
government of Prince Boun Oum
by forwarding a $3 million check
for January. Aid was held up after
Boun Oum broke up a meeting be
tween the three princes in Vien
tiane, the Laotian capital, several
weeks ago.
McNamara was scheduled to

day to prepare for congressional
hearings on the defense budget.
Accompanying him will be Nolt

MOSCOW (UPI) U.S. Ambas

Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei

ring round on Berlin Friday and
indications were the three-hour
session was a tough one.
The two men met in Gromyko's

sessino was 40 minutes longer than
Thompson's first probe of Soviet
intentions on Berlin Jan. 2.
There was no official statement

ECONOMICS SEMINAR
Donald W. Taylor, Yale Univer
sity psychology professor, will
speak on "Problem Solving and
Decision Making" at a UNC sem
inar in economics and business at
4 p.m. this Wednesday in the fac
ulty seminar room on the third
floor of Carroll Hall.
Two things made driving easier in Chapel Hill
after the last snowfall. The first was the new Cha
pel Hill snow ordinance and the second was the
work of Mr. Shelton Womble, Superintendent of Pub
lic Works for the town of Chapel Hill.
Since Chapel Hill does not get many large snow
falls, there is no need for having a storage of equip
ment designed specially for the purpose. Chapel
Hill uses two truck-plows and two road graders to
plow their snow. All this equipment is used during
the year for regular road work.
Standby Crew
The road crew of four men is kept on standby
in case of snow or when snow is expected. They
have a supply of sand and calcium chloride for icy
roads. The men are regular employees of the Pub
lic Works Department.
The new ordinance states that there, will be no
parking in the Chapel Hill Fire District after a
two-inch or greater snowfall accumulates. The Fire
District includes Rosemary and Franklin streets
from Spring Lane west to Carrboro city limits and
all crossing streets.
This facilitates work for . Air. Womble and his
crew when they must plow the entire street up to
the curb. The men are authorized to move auto
mobiles if they are parked and blocking the plows.
The owner of the car must pay tow tosts.
Laos Receives Aid
After Short Delay
VIENTIANE, Laos (UPI) The
Laotian government of Premier
Prince Boun Oum Friday received
its monthly aid allotment of $4
million from the United States af
ter a 12-day delay.
At the same time, it was an
nounced that Boun Oum . would
leave Sunday for Geneva for talks
with the neutralist and pro-Communist
Laotian princes on forma
tion of a coalition government.
Although neither Laotian nor A
merican officials would comment,
the decision to release the funds
was believed prompted by Boun
Oum's acceptance of the invitation
from the 14-nation conference on
Laos to meet in the Swiss city
with neutralist Prince Souvanna
Phouma and Prince Souphanouvong
of the pro-Communist Pathet Lao.
The United States was known to
have been disturbed by the col
lapse of scheduled princely talks
here last month. The breakdown
generally was blamed on the in
sistence of Boun Oum's right-wing
faction that it retain the key de
fense and interior ministries in a
future coalition regime.
The delay in releasing the funds
stirred speculation that the Unit
ed States was applying economic
presurcs to break the impasse
and speed a solution to the Lao
tian crisis.
While Boun Oum will go to Ge
neva, it was made clear the right-
wing faction intended to maintain
its tough attitude.
Deputy Premier Gen. Phoumi
Nosavan, the recognized strong
man in the Boun Oum regime,
declared in a belligerent speech
this week that the government
will not give up its fight to keep
the defense and interior police
posts. Phoumi will go to Geneva
with Boun Oum.
Souvanna and Souphanouvong
also have accepted the invitations
from Britain and Russia, co-
chairmen of the conference in Ge
neva. Souvanna is in Europe. The

Tri-Delt
Scholarship
Available
The nineteenth annual Tri Del

petition is open January 1-March 1.
The total amount of the awards
granted on this campus may not
exceed $300. The scholarships will
be forwarded to the winners at
the beginning of the term for
which they are awarded and may
be used for the 1962 summer ses
sion. Successful candidates will be
notified on May 15.
Application forms can be ob
tained from Miss Nancy Adams in
the Dean of Women's Office, 202
South Building.
There is no restriction as to
race, creed, color or sorority mem
bership but the students should
show "promise of valuable ser
vice in their future communities?
Cooperation of People
"Drivers in town," Mr. Womble stated, . "should
not park in the town Fire District when it is snow
ing or when there is a chance of snow. WThen the
plows go to work, the signs for no parking will be
put up and their cars may be towed away."
Mr. Womble, an employee of the city of Chapel
Hill for 14 years, stated that, "The people cooperat
ed very well during this last snowfall and got their
cars out of the way almost as soon as the "signs
were up."
The Public Works Department, which controls the
cemetery, sewer and sanitation works also, hires
private equipment when the show gets deeper than
five or six inches. A road tractor is then used to
hoist the snow into dump trucks and have it carried
away.
New Snow Plow
The department, according to Mr. Womble, is
better equipped than ever but he hopes to purchase
a new truck plow, at the cost of $750, during this
year. He feels that this past snow removal was the
best job that has ever been done.
In cost, the snow removal varies from time to
time according to the size of the snowfall. This
particular job cost about $200 and, Mr. Womble
added, "about $150 of that cost was for labor and
gasoline."
said Souphanouvong will leave
rebel headquarters in the Plain
of Jars for Geneva "very shortly."
Peiping radio also broadcast
claims by the Pathet Lao that
the rebel forces had "routed"
three government battalions in
fiehtin" at Muong. Sai in north
western Laos. The rebels also said
there had been fighting in other
areas during the "past fortnight."
The communist rebels claimed
100 Government troops were killed
and 30 taken prisoners while
"others" surrendered.

Contemplated For
Protests Expected
From Army Brass
WASHINGTON (UPI) The ad
ministration will announce next
Tuesday a shakeup in the Army
department so controversial it is
certain to bring protests from
Army officers and meet criticism
in Congress.
Contemplated for years, the re
organization is one that former
Defense Secretary Robert A. Lovett
once said it would be no more
painful for government leaders
than backing into a buzz saw. But
he agreed it should be carried out.
The final plan was developed by
Defense Secretary Robert S. Mc
Namara and approved by President
Kennedy. Chiefly affected are such
old line technical services as the
ordnance, chemical, quartermaster,
signal and transportation corps.
Asked about the plan, a Defense
Department spokesman said the
garet Blec and Ruth Hay.
Longest Teaching Career
Dr. Lasley, a professor in the
mathematics department, has a
longer teaching career than any
other member of the faculty. He

Draws Sharp Protest
Some details of the plan have
been leaking out for weeks. The
authoritative Army - Navy - Air
Force Journal said Friday that
the reorganization already had
"drawn sharp protests from a
number of senior officers."
The office of the chief of engi
neers, which is responsible for ci
vilian and military construction
projects, and the office of the
surgeon general, will hold their
own. But other technical services
will disappear or be absorbed in
new commands.
The plan calls for two new com
mandsmaterial development and
logistics command, and combat
and combat developments com
mand. The continental Army com
mand will take over nearly all
training including that now con
ducted by technical services.
Just before he left office in
1952, Lovett sent a memorandum
then President Harry S. Truman
in which he said the technical
services overlapped and compli
cated the problem of administra
tion and control.
Lovett said he was amazed that
the system worked at all, and
added: "A reorganization of the
technical services would be no
more painful than backing into a
buzz-saw but I believe that it is
long overdue."
