Senate group finishes hearings

WASHINGTON (UPI) - Education
Secretary Terrel Bell testified yester-
day that tuition tax credits are part of
the American way, and the Rev. Jerry
Falwell said they would help parents
teach children religious values.
A Senate finance subcommittee
finished two days of hearings on a
proposal that its prime sponsor, Sen.
Robert Packwood (R-Oregon), said has
more than enough votes to send it to the
full House.
PRESIDENT REAGAN supports tax
credits, although he wants Congress to
hold off on the bill until it finishes his
tax-cut package. Congress came close
to enacting such a measure in 1978, but
differences between House and Senate
versions were never reconciled.
"While there are many excellent
public schools, it is difficult for any one

Tuition tax credits seen
as part of American Way

school system to meet all the needs of
its students, or to be consistent with the
values of all parents," said Bell, whose
children have attended public schools.
"Many view public schools as
inadequate in providing an orderly en-
vironment in which basic skills can be
taught."
BELL SAID the views of parents
whose educational values differ from
those of the public schools should be
respected "and their freedom to

choose" should be supported. He said
such diversity is a fundamental part of
the American way.
Bell noted an increasing private
school enrollment in the past decade
and Packwood said efforts to portray
tuition tax credits as a boon for the rich
are unfair.
"It's imperative we destroy this myth
that private schools are for the elite,"
said Packwood.
FALWELL, president of the Moral

Majority, said private education gives
parents a chance to make sure their
children are taught the right moral
values.
"The choice between private and
public education is a very basic paren-
tal right and it is the responsibility of
parents to see that their children's
education include those moral and
educational values that they them-
selves believe in," Falwell said.
"Education should not be a process of
liberating the young from khe values
which are held in thehome, but rather
should reinforce parental values and
beliefs."
Falwell argues that private schools
are free to reflect parental values,
"while public schools, to a large extent,
are unable to promote moral and
religious principles."

FBI unsure of Atlanta suspect

From AP and UPI
ATLANTA - A man who was
questioned and released in the slayings
of 28 young blacks said yesterday that
FBI agents repeatedly accused him of
some of the murders and-warned him:
"It's just a matter of time before we get
you."
Wayne Williams, 23, known as a
"media groupie" who worked as a
freelance photographer and like to pal
around with reporters, said he felt like
r a scapegoat.
WILLIAMS SAID he believed he was
grabbed because authorities "were
trying to pin all the murders on
someone as soon as possible." It was
the second time he was picked up and
questioned in the case.
Williams was not arrested or
charged, and while Atlanta Public
Safety Commissioner Lee Brown
declined to rule him out as a suspect, he
carefully avoided calling Williams a
suspect and repeatedly said, "no com-
ment" to questions about possible
evidence linked to Williams.
FBI Director William Webster said
he was "perhaps more optimistic" than
ever that a solution to at least a portion
of the maddening 22-month case was
near. "We are not without leads," Web-
ster said.

ference at his home, said he did not
blame the FBI for questioning him.
But, he said toward the end of the
grueling interrogation, he became
angry and felt abused, harassed, and
intimidated. He said he was "a victim
of circumstance - in the wrong place
at the wrong time."
He said the almost all-night
questioning session was "not any
fun ... somebody constantly pointing
fingers, saying 'You killed so-and-so,
you're lying.' Anyone else questioned
like that would have been crying or
would have been in some mental
hospital by now."
Williams was taken into custody at
his home Wednesday afternoon and
questioned until 3:15 a.m. EDT yester-
day, at which point Brown advised
reporters: "We have not, nor do we in-
tend to make an arrest. Our efforts
tonight did not give us the information
we need."
Meanwhile, police continued to sear-
