The panel, citing the nation's "very serious fiscal situation," voted to cut aid spending from $2.9 billion to $2 billion for the 12 months that began last July 1. The money bill, almost certain to be upheld by the House, is $1 billion less than President Johnson asked.

TERRY GINGRAS of Thm Dally Tar Hcl Staff An American expert on religion said Monday night the ISCO's will see the death of racism, nationalism and religious exclusivism. John Cogley, former New York Times religion editor and second speaker in the "Leadership in the lSGO's" con ference said, "The leader who supports these myths will be regnizeid as a traitor to Cogley stressed the im portance of the growing theory that mankind is a family. He said this view makes the old notion of the nation state "inadequate to the task of maintaining security in a nuclear age." He called holding on to this nationalistic view "wicked and stupid. stupid." Cogley said the constitution of the UJS. would need "serious revisions" because almost -all mankind. It is already brutally institutions are 'incapable ex-to U.S. Offers Mideast Peace Terms UNITED NATIONS The United States Monday circulated a new draft resolution aimed at bringing peace to the Middle East. The move came as Israeli Foreign Minister Abba Eban told a London news conference that bis country offered the Arab na tions "objectively reasonable peace terms" if they would negotiate, and Jordan's King Hussein had lunch with Secretary of State Dean Rusk in Washington. Details of the new UJS. measure were not immediately known, but it was reliably reported to call for appointment of a special U Jf. envoy to the Mideast under loosely worded guidelines for a peace settlement. Informed diplomats said the United States op poses having the mandate for such a representative explicitly spelled out. evident that the path of clusivism is the road suicide." Cogley stressed that the leaders of tfce lSSs will have to be leaders of mankind as a whole. Sectionalism and na tionalism will not be accepted in these leaders. Cogley feels the world of the lSSO's will require a world government because of the in creasing self-Qwareness o f mankind everywhere, the awareness of the seStas a human being worthy o f respect. "There are two big changes currently taking place that will affect the world of the lSGO's. the growth of self awareness and the change in the concept of government." tSelf-awareness of the in dividual is causing more and more people to make in dividual decisions. They do not want to be led. In twenty years tie leader will be those who are able to show people how to work with, and for other without sacrificing their own individuality." The change in the cencept of government will stress the in dividuality of the people. Tha leaders will have to take the opinions of individuals into account more and more. A leader will no longer be able to tell people what they are going to do. He will have to follow meir wishes." i IFC Carnival At Silent Sam Silent Sam is the place to be today from 2-5 p.m. for the Inter! rat ernity Council carmvaL ' IFC President Randy Myer said there will be lots of goings-on, tots of things to do, and lots of money raised for UNKEF. of performing the jobs thev were assigned to do." Cogley stressed the growing generation gap and the pro blems it is bringing to current national leaders. "Johnson is suffering from the generation gap as well as the cred2nly gap. The generation gap is also making life difficult for the leaders of the Communist empire." Cogley sees the anti-Vietnam demonstrations as an outgrowth of the generation gap. "Ideological war chants now sound hollow and unconvincing, in the iht of the con sciousness of mankind's oneness that is sweeping the globe.

I JJ DTH StaJ Photo by JflKX KcGOWAX Almost Winter Sigma Chi Day Set This Week w31 echo across . .K.(gtMUMI3?B By WAYNE HURDER of The Daily Tar Heel Staff A UNC Student, a former graduate student, and a High Point resident, who have returned their draft cards to the Federal goverment, have been contacted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation but have had no court action brought against them. Two of them, UNC junior Robert Eaton and former sociology graduate student George Vlasits, turned in their draft cards to the Justice Department in Washington, D.C. on Oct. 20. The third, Mike Smedberg, an organizer for the Resistance and a High Point resident, returned his on Oct. 16. They could be prosecuted for non-possession of their draft cards but the constitutionality of this law is being reviewed by the UJS. Supreme Court in its present session. Presently no persons are being prosecuted for non possession of draft cards, pen ding the outcome of this case. The - TnflTirnjim penalty for not having a draft card is five years in prison, or $10,000 fine, or both. Eaton took his action because of "opposition to both the war and draft," according to a statement made last week in a Student Committee Against the War newsletter. The Resistance is organized group seeking non participation with the govern ment and particularly with the Selective Service System. Eaton and Vlasits are members of the Chapel Hill Durham Resistance. About 900 other persons turn ed in either their draft cards or statements saying they bad turned in their draft cards elsebwere on Oct. 20 during the Vietnam War MoMization. Smedburg said that as far as he knew they were in the only persons in North Carolina to have turned in their draft cards recently. Eaton and Vlasits were con tacted by the FBI on Oct. 24. The FBI asked them how and why they had turned in their cards, according to Eaton. The FBI talked to Smedburg on Oct. 17 and 19. Eaton said he had considered his move since last year. He :made his decisions after listen ing to the arguments of The Resistance, "which talked about it in a more substantial way," he said. "By obeying the law," Eaton explained, "we are giving sup port to the Selective Service System which is channelling manpower into the war," which he calls "IHegaL im moral, and inane." He also opposes the draft law because "it gives one the impression that fcs ie absolved a loosely- of all guilt and blame for kill ing." He says government has no right to give persons the right to kill. He cites the Nuremberg trials following World War n as proof of this. The Resistance started at the Umversity of California at Berkeley, which Smedburg at tended, last February. It is active in about 10 states and has about 20 fulltime workers, as of late September, according to Smedburg. Smedburg said that he had not found many persons in North Carolina interested in taking the steps that he and the other two took, but said many had shown interest in lending mem support. "A lot of people are fun damentally opposed to con scription but are not willing to pay the consequences," he said. "They feel they can do more good out of jafl." However, he added that Msobedience of government will eventually be necessary to change the government's foreign policy."

There's no reason to be confused by all the election propaganda especially if you read the Daily Tar Heel's coverage of platforms and biographies begiimins today. See page By STEVE KNOWLTON of Tha Daily Tar Heel Staff When the Peace Corps recruiters hit the campus next j week, they'll be offering "two years of frustrating, fascinating experience." UNC graduate Lois Bradshaw was talking about her two years in the Indian tropics teaching the natives better methods of chicken farming. "Many times while I was there," she said, "I thought I'd had it and I wanted to come home. But almost every day Fve been back I've wanted to go back." After getting her BA. in political science degree in January, 1965, Miss Bradshaw said she was looking for travel and rise chance to work with people. She she enlisted in the Peace Corps, then less than four years old. "To join, yoa have to be a real fcimanitarian," she said, "and a little bit idealistic" When you join, she said, you get your pick of one of 25 "developing countries." These aren't underdeveloped nations, she explained, "they are economically lagging-" After a four month training period both here and abroad, the volunteers are left in the country usually in pairs using unless otherwise requested "Most of the people were still to act as a catalyst for change." "The Peace Crops knows we can't really affect any great .deal of change in two years," Miss Bradshaw said. "What we try to do is influence and con vince the rising middle classes in these countries that they should do what they can to help the other classes." J r 4 You dont get rich in the Peace Corps not financially at any rate. Base pay fa a comfortable Irving in the coun try you're stationed, a plane ticker over and back and $73 per month "adjustment pay" when you get back in the United States. 4You get it all at once, which is a nice sum, because you can't collect any of it until after you get home," Miss Bradshaw said She said India "is absolutely fascinating. In the tropics -where I was, the temperature never gets lower than Ttfs and most of the time it's in the EO's and SO's. And it's wall-to-wall people. There 25 million people in 15,000 square miles of land," she said. She said her major work was concerned with improving the poultry farming methods. farming methods 2,500 years old. "Whe we had to do was con vince those whoU be there for the rest of their lives that our methods cf farming are good ones." Those who go can re-apply only once making a total of four years hi the Corps. Miss Bradshaw even the staff must change hands every five years, "so it can stay young and alive." She said she was undecided about going back. "I would like to stay here long enough to get my 1LA. degree in public health and then go back. I really feel I have an obligation to go back now."
