The House Interstate and Foreign Commerce Committee proceeded in exactly the other di- rection, letting the bill rest for an extended period in order that any opposition could allowed to develop." "Politically, this is a technique for ascertaining public reaction to the bill and is well adapted to committee chairmen who have sensitive antennae," he said. The President was fully aware of its existence and the bill was included among those he wanted passed before Congress adjourned. Eventually overcoming opposi- tion and frustrations from the banking industry: a government official, James J. Saxon who was comptroller of the currency; and the insurance industry, the bill was redrafted. A final obstacle came from foreign securities, but the bill passed the House and the Sen- ate. After all the work, if the bill had not passed by the end of the session, the entire process would have had to be started all over again, Prof. Cary said. d Students Value Grades Over Knowledge B'NAI B'RITH HILLEL FOUNDATION 1429 Hill Street All Are Welcome ' f ~ ."'"r.......

Barron says the youngsters in the St. Louis suburb are typical of 16-year-olds in well-to-do areas which have achieved "the Ameri- can dream of affluence and secur- ity." But he says they are paying "a terrible price because of the enormous pressure on them for good grades and success in later life." "We were staggered to learn how much the pressure of getting into college bears on them," Bar- ron said. The study showed that 54 per cent said they had cheated on exams, indicating the pressure that was on them to get good grades, he said, noting that 86 per cent of the 16-year-olds had sign- ed an honor code not to'cheat and to report any cheating. Most are high school juniors. The results of Barron's survey, which began last September, will be used by CBS-TV tonight in a special network program. Results Presented Barron presented the results yielded by his questionnaires and interviews to school officials, teachers and students this week. The president of the student body agreed that the analysis of his schoolmates was accurate. Barron reported that the main goal in life for 77 per cent of the 16-year-olds he studied is "a good-paying job, money, success." In virtually every category of the study, knowledge is considered at best a by-product of education, only vaguely necessary for success in life. Good Grades When asked what worried them most, the majority listed good grades. But when asked what went' into the makeup of a campus lead- er, scholarship ranked last. One youngster told Barron. "Learning isn't fun. I learn be- cause the end justifies the means." And when asked what is essen-. tial to success in adult life, the pupils ranked "getting along with people first and intelligence" last, even below "compromising your principles." . Intellectuality Lost "I fear that genuine intellec- tuality is being lost in the shuffle," Barron told the school adminis- trators, "despite some of the most remarkable teachers I have ever seen." The materialism of the young- sters, Barron said, is due to "pres- sure to achieve a 'grades ticket' to the kind of life their parents want for them." "These kids believe they have bought an insurance policy on life and that the premiums are grades and good behavior," Barron said. General Concept Barron contends that the gen- eral concept of the teen-ager does not apply to the Webster Groves 16-year-olds. He said they are not rebellious, very few have been in trouble, homework takes by far the greatest amount of their out- of -school time, and they have very conventional a t t i t u d e s about drinking and sex. "These are good kids," he said, "committed to the values of mid- dle-class society, oriented to suc- cess, materialistic, but faintly an- tiintellectual. "And they're living for the fu- ture," Barron said. "There is very little idealism. They think happi- ness is a big house, two cars and a lot of money." Barron, who holds a doctor's degree in sociology from Columbia University, chose 16-year-olds for his study because that is the age at which youngsters can drive, drop out of school, "and the age at which many seriously begin to question themselves." The study was made in Webster Groves, which has a population of 30,000, because Barron and the University of Chicago's National Opinion Research Center felt it to be typical of the upper middle class suburb which is becoming so numerous in this country The city has a median income of $8,700 compared with the national average of $5,660, and almost 74 per cent of the workers have white collar jobs, compared with 32 per cent nationally. "These kids to a certain extent have lost their youthfulness," Barron said. "They are passion- ately concerned with their careers. They are pathetically eager to please their parents, to make their parents proud of them. One won- ders if they have not been molded too much in our image at this tender age." :M ..ff.. ..:. ff.....f ...: .... . . f . . :. .... ...N:ts : A4V.
