The proposal was made in a re port to the President by the institute which Is a clearing house for the government and many private institutions in the han dling of foreign exchange students THE REPORT SAID implementing its proposal would "re quire the expenditure of large amounts of public funds" which it said should be politically "neutralized." It suggested some of these funds be channeled "as quickly as possible and as much as possible irrougn the United Nations 8n4 regional organizations." It also suggested some of these be handled by private non-govern- mentai organizations and that the establishment of a natioinal educa tion foundation similar to the Na tional Science Foundation to coordinate tne work of these private groups. The Institute said that "coher-ent, thoughtful, long-range planning" of foreign educational aid was at least as necessary as in creasing the allocation of foreign aia ior education.

It was forced to land here Friday nignt when a snowstorm closed Idlewild Airport in New York City. When the big Jet landed here it had to use the conventional runway because approaches had not yet been built to the jet-age runway. "That will be done within a matter of a few weeks," said Hooper.

That was because taxlways have not oeen completed.

"Work Is underway on the taxlways," said Hooper. "When we finish depends on how quick we can. get back to work in full force In the spring."
