Foreign Aid Bill;

Integration Gains in Tuskegee
WASHINGTON (P) - President
Lyndon B. Johnson asked Con-
gress yesterday for $3.38 billion
for foreign aid next year, the low-;
est such administration request
since the United States program
began after World War II.
In stressing economies along
with the need for economic-mili-'
tary assistance to "those who
would be free abroad," Johnson
hopes to get congressional ap-
proval without the deep money
cuts imposed by the lawmakers in
some past years.

continuing obligation to the peo-'
ple to be efficient." He said that
the Task Force on Expenditure
Management which he appointed
two years ago, has already come
sup with recommendationsrthat
have saved the state nearly $3
millicn, and that it will be reor-
ganized and expanded to take on
the additional duties of reviewing
all present state services.
"County home rule standards
should be established on a flexi-
ble, optional basis to permit more
efficient and economical govern-
ment," Romney said. "We must
have county home rule by the
end of this legislative session, he!
shouted.
Challenge to Education
In noting that "education is the
most basic public service respon-
sibility of state and local govern-
ments," Romney said "the need
to prepare citizens of all ages for
productive employment and en-
riched lives has placed new chal-
lenges before our educational sys-
tems."
These can be met, he maintain-
ed, by "an improved school aid
formula that will provide every
child with equal educational op-
portunity regardless of school dis-
trict property tax base." He also
emphasized the need for addi-
tional vocational education facili-
ties.
Romney declared that Michigan
has the best anti-poverty program
of any state, mainly due tp "in-
creased jobs and reduced unem-
ployment, improved educational
and training programs, increased
welfare benefits and positive civil
rights action." He also observed
that the state is "making full use
of the new federal Economic Op-
portunity Act."
However, in a special 3500-
word message, the President left
the way open for further money
requests later this year "if situ-
ations should arise which require
additional amounts" of U.S. as-
stance to advance vital U.S. inter-
ests.
South Viet Nam
Specifically, in earmarking more
than $500 million for South Viet!
a Nam and Laos in the fiscal year
starting July 1, Johnson asked for
an open-ended military-economic
authorization for Vietnamese aid.
This would allow him to go to
Congress directly for additional
appropriations for the antiguer-
rilla campaign without first get-
ting authorizing legislation.
A protest against the open-end
authority for extra military aid
in South Viet Nam came from
Sen. Wayne Morse (D-Ore), a vig-
orous foe of both the aid program
and of U.S. !involvement in Viet
Nam.
"Obviously this is a proposal for
funds to make war in South Viet
Nam in a war that has not been
declared under ourConstitution,"
Morse said. "I'm sure the Presi-
dent will hear from millions of
American people in opposition' to
this indefensible foreign aid pro-
gram."
Sen. Jack Miller (R-Iowa) also
predicted trouble for the standby
authorization request.

SENATOR FULBRIGHT
certain future at legislative hands
this year. Last year Johnson
sought $3.5 billion and got $3.25
billion, a comparatively modest re-
duction.
Congressional critics of foreign
aid informed Johnson that they
consider his new foreign aid re-
quest too big and will try to bar
help to countries unfriendly to
America.
Rep. Otto Passman (D-La), the
most persistent and effective trim-
mer of foreign aid funds, didn't
issue any sweeping criticism of
the President's proposals, as he
has done frequently in the past.
Instead, the chairman of the
House Appropriations Subcommit-
tee which shapes the fund provi-
sions, said the program "cannot
be evaluated until we can ascer-
tain whether or not there will be
a request for more money for the
International Development Asso-
ciation and similar agencies. ..
Wait-and-See
Sen. J. W. Fulbright (D-Ark),
the Senate foreign relations
chairman who has guided many
aid bills to enactment, also took
a wait-and-see attitude. Fulbright
recently disclosed his disillusion-
ment with some phases of the pro-
gram and said he could not take
the lead in passing another bill
unless several objections are met.
Yesterday Fulbright said he'd
have to wait until Johnson spells
out the details before he can de-
cide his course. The senator ex-
pressed pleasure that the over-all
request is the lowest yet, but he
said he still wants the military and
economic programs handled sep-
arately and added:
"It is also important to know
whether there will be greater shift
of emphasis from bilateral to mul-
tilateral aid in which other indus-
trial nations will take over a
greater share of the burden."
Open Questions
Johnson put off decisions on
some questions being raised by
congressional critics.
One is whether to continue U.S.
aid to Egypt and Indonesia, whose
presidents have scorned American
assistance.
Another is the form of the leg-
islation to be presented to Con-
, gress. Some lawmakers want the
program split into different bills,
including a separation of military
and economic aid, while others are
insisting on a single package.
Selective Program
Yesterday's message described
the new "minimum" program as
selective, emphasizing self-help by
the aid-receiving countries. This
is looking towards ending U.S. as-
sistance in the future, a rising
role for private enterprise, larger
aid contributions by other coun-
tries and greater efficiency in han-
dling the program.
Highlights of the new program
include:
-A $115-million rise in military
aid because of the pressure in
SoutheasteAsia. Administration
sources said the $500 million in
military and economic supporting
assistance planned for Viet Nam
and Laos is a slight increase over
the present rate.
-Latin America's Alliance for
Progress program will get $580
million, an increase of $17 million.
-Nationalist China which has
received nearly $5 billion in U.S.
military-economic assistance since
the war will be eliminated from
U.S. economic relief in fiscal 1966.
U.S. arms assistance to the Chiang
Kai-shek regime will continue.

WASHINGTON-Rep. Albert W.
Watson (R-SC) yesterday sub-
mitted his resignation from Con-
gress.
Watson switched this week from
Democrat to Republican because
House Democrats took away his
committee seniority for having
supported the Republican presi-
dential nominee, Bari'y Goldwater,
in November.
LONDON-Ten thousand air-
plane factory workers yesterday
converged on the British capitalI
to urge the Labor government to1
call off a cutback in aircraft o.
ders which would cause widespread
unemployment in the industry,
JAKARTA, Indonesia - Presi-
dent Sukarno suggested yesterday
that an African-Asian group or
the United Nations investigate
whether the provinces of Sarawak
and Sabah want to remain in Ma-
laysia. He promised to abide by
the decision.
It was the second conciliatory
statement by Sukarnosin three
days. On Wednesday he said in an
interview that Indonesia did not
plan to attack anyone but would
resist if attacked.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Last year the
University instituted 'a general ex-
change program with the Tuskegee
Institute in Alabama. The follow-
ing story describes efforts toward
integration taking place in Tuske-
gee.
TUSKEGEE, Ala. (A) - Once-
troubled Tuskegee has witnessed
signs of progress in racial har-
mony in the three months since
two Negroes took office on the city
council.
Next Tuesday, the bi-racial gov-
ernmental trend which developed'
after Negroes gained a voting ma-I
jority will stretch throughout Ma-
con County when four other Ne-
groes will be sworn in as county
officials.
Already, the presence of a Ne-
gro minister and a Tuskegee In-
stitute professor on the city coun-
cil has broken through the bar-
riers' which once kept Negroes out
of city jobs.
Hire Negroes
Two Negroes have been hired on
the 14-man police force. Another
has been added to the housing au-
thority and three others to the city
planning board.
"Everything seems to be moving
along peacefully," said the Rev. K.
L. Buford, one of the Negro coun-
oilmen. "There is a wholesome at-
titude on the council. We couldn't
want for better cooperation, and
we have received few complaints.
from the people in the city."
One note of uncertainty simmers
in the county courthouse. Sheriff
Preston Hornsby, who gained the
respect of Negro voters by ap-
pointing a Negro deputy, is giving
up that office next Tuesday to be-
come probate judge.
New Sheriff
A new sheriff will be appoint-
ed by Gov. George Wallace, and
some Negro leaders are worried
that he might follow the gover-
nor's hard-core segregationist line.
"We hope it will be someone
who is not too far different from
the one we've had," said Prof. C.
0. Gomillion of Tuskegee Insti-
tute, who takes office next week
as a member of the county school
board.
Gomillion, a pioneer in civil
rights efforts which led ultimate-'
ly to a federal court order against
discrimination in voter registra-
tion, says he will take his place
on the county school board with a
wait-and-see approach.
"I want to get on the board and
begin to ask questions and then
make recommendations," he said.
Racial Strife
Tuskegee and the remainder of
the county have long been beset
by racial strife, and until recent
years, Negroes even though they
outnumber white residents nearly
five to one, were able to get only
a few of their people registered as
voters.
A federal court school integra-
tion order in September, 1963,
touched off a mass boycott by
white pupils at three schools in
the county.
But when Tuskegee High School
reopened last year, 59 white stu-
dents joined 14 Negroes in class.

To End Rift
ALBANY, N.Y. (A') - Mayor
Robert F. Wagner of New York
City said yesterday it is time for
leaders of the opposing forces to
work out "a suitable understand-
ing" in the Democratic dispute
that has paralyzed the New York
Legislature.
Compromise is inevitable in the
dispute, Sen. Robert F. Kennedy
said yesterday,
Now a power in state Democratic
politics, Kennedy suggested that
warring legislators reach those
compromises and "go on with the
state's business.
Despite that high-level advice-
from leaders that many consider
on opposing sides-the new and
badly divided Democratic majori-
ties in the Legislature failed in
new voting yesterday to agree on
legislative leaders.
Republican Gov. Nelson E.
Rockefeller immediately fired a
new blast at the.opposition party,
charging that breakdown "threat-
ens to impair many vital admin-
istrative functions of state gov-
ernment."
Until leaders are named, the
Legislature-a $1-million-a-month
operation-cannot function.
The Legislature adjourned to
Monday. Two Democrats said that
many members of their party in-
tended to begin continuing ses-
sions next week, taking "ballot
after ballot" until a decision is
reached.
Several of the political leaders
involved will meet today in New
York City for more compromise
talks in a search for agreement on
the leaders.
The fight over the powerful
leadership posts exploded when
the Democrats took control of the
Legislature this month for the first.
time in 30 years.

1. "Any persons who paid for double rooms and did not receive them
will be reimbursed in full by Gibbs Tour."
2. "Those persons who checked out of the Alexandria Hotel because of
unsatisfactory accommodations will be reimbursed by Gibbs Tours for the
nights that they did occupy their assigned rooms."
3. ". . . the anticipated reduction in fare for the Rock Island Southern
Pacific passengers did not materialize. It was not clear until December 23
that such anticipated fare reduction would not be available. Therefore,
Gibbs Tours Inc. paid the railroad the full normal round trip fare to Los
Angeles. This fare, by the way, was the same fare that the original Special
Train Tour had been based upon. In view-of the fact that Gibbs Tours
had paid the railroad the full fare and on the assumption that the pas-
sengers on the Golden State Train did enjoy the Tour and the hotel ac-
commodations, we would like to know how many of these passengers feel
that Gibbs Tours, from their own resources, not the railroad, should reim-
burse each passenger in any amount.
Gibbs Tours realizes that there was a notification to the effect that
a refund of over $15 would be made and with this thought they are deeply
interested in attempting to satisfy all of the passengers on this Tour. Any
and all passengers who feel that Gibbs Tours should make any such
settlements should contact their office 230 ,N. Michigan, Chicago, Ill.

Student Government Council urges all such students to communicate
immediately with Gibbs Tours and to send a carbon copy of their letters
to SGC.

dividual passengers and cannot assume any liabiilty with regard to such
items as hotel accommodations, they do feel involved to the point that they
will take every possible step to have the Alexandria Hotel compensate
them (the students) for unsatisfactory accommodations. A number of
firm steps have thus for been taken, the next being a proposed meeting
