Survey Tells How By SANDRA JOHNSON Three University researchers have investigated how parents pay for their children's college education and what effect this has on their finances. They also looked into parents' attitudes about college for their children, and probed the anatomy of college costs, from the parents' point of view. They found that the average cost for an American student to attend college for one year is $1,550. Of this amount, parents pay the major share-$950. The student himself earns an additional $360. Another $130 comes from scholarships, and the final $110 is paid from "other sources." These figures have been published in a new study on "How People Pay for College," by John B. Lansing, Thomas Lorimer, and Chikashi Moriguchi of the Institute for Social Research. "For years colleges have been estimating the amount it costs a student to attend their school; but no one had ever investigated college expenses from the parents' point of view," Lorimer said Friday. "Therefore this study, which we began last September at the request of the United States Office of Education is unique," he added. "Because we wanted to investigate the parents' feelings about college expenses, our study included only unmarried college stu- dents who had at least one living parent." Lpoking back on the financing pf their children's education; about one-quarter of the parents interviewed felt it had been difficult for them and that the job they did was not adequate. Often these parents proved to be in the lower income groups. When asked to explain why financing was difficult, over half of these people who had difficulties said they found it hard to live on a budget or to refrain from buying new things in order to meet the expense of putting their children through college. Others said that someone in the family had to work more than they otherwise would have worked, or that some other event such as illness or unemployment made the financial obligation difficult to meet. Another quarter of the parents interviewed said financing of their children's educations was both easy and adequate. This quarter is found predominately in the upper income groups. Children Finance In approximately ten per cent of the cases where the parents had no difficulty, the children financed their own education. About the same number received outside help from the G.I. Bill or from scholarships. Another group found it easy because the children lived at home and the cost of their education was low. Although the parents' contribution, to their son or daughter's education average $950 the actual amount varies substantially from one family to the next, the study points out. The survey results show that this variation depends upon the income of the family, the level of education of the parents FROM DIXIE: Rights Leaders Meet in Atlanta By THOMAS HAYDEN Editor Special to The Daily ATLANTA - Top leaders of the civil rights movement from 15 Southern and border states converged here this weekend to assess the results of their crusade and plan a broader assault on segregation in all areas. They meet this morning in general sessions to consider the application of direct action techniques against segregation in drug and department stores, restaurants, rest rooms, beaches, schools, churches, voting places, recreation facilities and public transportation. The three-day conference was hosted by the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee created U.S. Shifts Stand in UN UNITED NATIONS (MP) - The United States was understood yes- terday to be keeping the door open to enlargement of the 10-nation disarmament committee if UN de- bate should show a majority in favor of that. But while the United States might agree to the addition of five more countries to the com- mittee, this did not necessarily mean it would accept all the five that the Soviet Union has pro- posed to add. The issue will come up soon in the Assembly's Political Commit- tee, when a Soviet resolution is pending to put Ghana, India, In- donesia, Mexico and the United Arab Republic on the disarmament committee. The Soviet idea is to supple- ment the Eastern and Western sides on the negotiating body with a neutral side of equal strength. The United States view, as authoritatively reported, repre- sents a shift from the position taken at the 1959 Geneva for- eign ministers' conference of Britain, France, the Soviet Union and the United States. So the committee was set up with a membership of five Com- munist countries - Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Poland, Romania and the Soviet Union-and five Western-allied countries-Britain, Canada, France, Italy and the United States. last April in Raleigh, N. C. to "/coordinate the activities of the students who participated in lunch counter sit-ins and other protest demonstrations. Expand Impact Among the significant confer- ence developments so far is the indication that Negro adult com- munities are preparing to poin students in expanding the impact of mass action. Rev. Ralph Abernathy of Mont- ,;gomery. Ala., one of the leaders of the Southern Christian Leader- ship Conference, said yesterday that Southern adults will be "pre- paring to join in a massive flesh and blood action by Jan. 1. "We have been idle too long while the students have acted." Martin Luther King, head of SCLC, and symbol of Southern non-violent direct action, also sees the need for more adult in- volvement. "There is a danger in the 'student movement' since it suggests that adults are not neces- sary," he warned. "This movement must become a comunity move- ment, cented in the urban areas where the Negroes have created power and mobility." Election Day Action Massive direct action is next expected on election day, Nov. 8. The conference is expected to ap- prove a resolution today, calling for a national demonstration at the polls to illustrate the disen- franchisement of many Southern Negroes. In the meantime, stu- dents will continue maneuvers, designed to focus attention on discriminatory practices in their localities. The emphasis, in other words, has expended beyond its original center, the lunch counters.
