By JULIAN DeVRIES Starting Wednesday and continuing through Saturday, the 71st annual meeting of the Arizona Medical Association will hold forth at Hotel Safari in Scottsdale. Although it will not be apparent to the eye, aided or unaided, the blood, sweat and tears of MIA Executive Secretary Robert Carpenter, Assistant Executive Secretary, Paul Boykin. and their dedicated staff of hardworking, self-effacing men and women will have touched and drenched every aspect of the meeting. On Thursday morning.

Dr. Clarence E. Yount Prescott, will take over the presidency of the Arizona Medical Association from Dr. Leslie B. Smith, Phoenix.

If ever there was an association president who performed his official duties with the same zeal and conscientiousness he devotes to his patients, Les Smith is that man. He has probably given more hard-hitting talks defending medicine in this country against socialism than most of his colleagues. He has collected an extensive reference file on the very real danger of socialized medicinerand is one of the best-informed men on the subject we know. And, knowing the sort of fellow he is, stepping down from the presidency of the Arizona Medical Association, most certainly will not afflict him with political laryngitis. He'll continue to beat the drums loud and long until the last medical pink has turned a rigor mortis white.

The nation well could use more men like Leslie Benjamin Smith, M.D. Salud, amigo! Dangerous Berlin Plan The row between the Kennedy administration and the West German government of Chancellor Konrad Adenauer is now completely in the open. In Washington, State Department spokesmen express their "indignation" at the fact that the Bonn authorities "leaked" to the German press details of th latest U.S. proposals to Russia on the Berlin problem. In Germany, the press complains that the U.S.

government is "using a tone unusual among friendly nations" in its dealings with the German ambassador in Washington. In London, the British press announces the Kennedy administration has decided to "put the West Germans on the carpet" and tell them to behave, or By DAVID LAWRENCE WASHINGTON Maybe the conservatives in Congress in both political parties will wake up in due time and put up a fight against the dictatorship complex that seems to have seized the Kennedy administration. For the way the steel dispute was almost entirely neglected by those who customarily criticize the arbitrary use of power by government is disquieting to the many people who still believe in a government of laws and a written constitution. Congress has a duty to expose usurpation of power when it develops anywhere in this country. It has a right to investigate the facts.

Will it now summon all the cabinet secretaries and their assistants to find out just what did happen in the 72 hours between the time the U.S. Steel Corporation announced a price increase and the time the same company capitulated, as its competitors were subjected to pressure and intimidation unparalleled in American history? If the executive branch of the government should order its officials to take the Fifth Amendment and to refuse to give the information on the ground that it is privileged, this in itself would be significant. Meanwhile, this will not stop the press from finding out the facts and telling them to the American people. The whole situation is best described in a Wall Street Journal editorial which said in part: "IN A LONG LIFE not without its. share of amazements, we never saw anything like it.

"On Tuesday, one of the country's steel companies announced it was going to try to get more money for its product. And promptly all hell busted loose "The President of the United States went into what can only be described as a tirade. Not only had the company changed its price list without consulting him, but it had also set a price which, in his opinion, was 'wholly With a long preamble in which he rang in the Berlin crisis, the soldiers killed the other day in Viet Nam, the wives and mothers separated from their husbands by the reserve call-up all of which he cast at the feet of these 'irresponsible' steel officials he wound up by crying that these men had shown their, 'utter contempt' for the welfare of the country.

the topic to be discussed is "Pediatric Aspects of tal Retardation." It's scheduled for 12 noon on Thursday in the Safari's convention center building, where, in fact, the whole bloomin' show will take place. else. In Pans, French President DeGaulle, fortified by his recent landslide electoral victory, has made it clear that he is backing completely Chancellor Adenauer. It is certain that the European Six (the Common Market) whose foreign ministers are at present meeting in Paris, will support the DeGaulle-Adenauer stand against the Kennedy administration. The cause of all these inter-Allied differences and difficulties is the Berlin problem, or rather, the way in which the Kennedy administration is trying to solve it.

Secretary of State. Dean Rusk this week began new "confidential" negotiations with the Soviet ambassador In Washington, Ana-toly Dobrynin. The nature of the talks was to be kept completely secret, but administration spokesmen assured newsmen that the Kennedy administration still stood "very firm" on Berlin. IT SOON TRANSPIRED, however, that Secretary Rusk had proposed to the Soviets a new, far-reaching Berlin plan, which goes a very long way toward satisfying Soviet demands. The plan itself is not "new" it has been kicked in and out of the State Department for many years.

But for the first time, the U.S. secretary of state has officially communicated "the plan" to the Soviets. According to published reports, this plan favors some "disengagement" of Western forces in Central Europe, including Berlin, a de facto recognition of the East German Communist government, and the acceptance of an "international author The People Speak Please write briefly.

Editor, The Arizona Republic: The recent news locally and from New York City relative to school teachers' demands for increased salaries, and my previous knowledge and contact with the increasing needs of our younger generation for better educational facilities, both as to quantity, quality and complexity, together with the justifiable demands for the relief of the overburdened local taxpayer, urges me to write you and point out the means whereby these apparently conflict been most effective in making more homes available for less cost than is now available in the East from which I come. The West might well pioneer in new methods of education and show the rest of our country the way here, as they have done in so many other fields. GLENN B. WARREN, M.E.-P.E., Schenectady, N.Y. New Light Needed Editor, The Arizona Republic: It was good to read your edi ALTHOUGH the subject will be of particular interest to parents, it's something to which every adult, young, old, married or not, should give careful attention.

Many tragedies thus could be averted. Mental retardation in children is by no means the hopeless situation popular misconception would make of it. Nor do such children have to be "put away," or kept hidden in the house. Such cruelty, by the way, is practiced not so much for the protection of the child, as it is to hide the unfounded guilt of the parents. That's one reason why every adult owes it to himself and society to attend Dr.

KocVs presentation. Much can be done for mentally retarded children. In some, the process of retardation can be arrested altogether if treatment is begun early enough. In others, training by experts can give such a child an almost completely normal life, and make him a useful member of society a tax payer instead of a tax consumer. I wish my parents had had access to a Dr.

Koch when I was a kid. The good lady assumed that this group had decided to affiliate with United World Federalists, at a meeting just six days after hearing of that organization. Her alarm seems to be because (a) she has read that one peace group mentioned in the discussion is alleged to be (b) she believes all peace groups are interlocking and (c) she believes that there are over 1,000 peace organizations in the United States and none in Russia. All of this has added up to "guilt by association" as far as peace and world law are concerned, and she fears well intentioned but fuzzy minded people have rushed to join a (by her) suspect organization. Perhaps Mrs.

Fon went home early. Otherwise she would have torial on the steel price question. ing demands can all be met. The problem is simply one of making the profession of teaching begin to catch up with the rest of our economy in the utilization of -new and more efficient tools. The farmers, the miners, the road builders, the home builders, the industrial workers, the producers of electrical power, the doctors, the motor mechanics, the car washers, all use tools that permit them to increase their productivity from two to 20 times what was possible by their counterparts a generation or so ago.

ON THE OTHER HAND, the school teachers and the college professors are still using largely the tools of 50 to 100 years ago, namely the classroom, blackboard, and textbook. Statistics indicate that if anything, the teacher today is teaching fewer students than a generation ago. ity to control the Western communications lanes to Berlin. This plan has been discussed in detail many times by The Arizona Republic, which has strongly opposed the plan. We have always held the view that such a "solution" of the Berlin crisis is dangerous in the extreme for the interests of the free world and the United States.

The Kennedy Berlin plan is dangerous because it would, in fact, give the Communists a commanding position in Vest Berlin, as well as in Central Europe. It Communists are allowed to participate now (as the Kennedy Berlin plan proposes) in an international administration of Berlin oommunications, the next stage will inevitably U)ad to a Communist control of all communications ip Berlin. That will be the end of a free West Berlin. Similarly, if the East German Communist regime is recognized by the West even in a ljmited way (as the de facto government of East (ermany), the position of the West German government (a reliable ally of the United States) tfould become impossible. It is certain that Chancellor Adenauer's government would not sur-vve such an important Communist diplomatic victory.

MOREOVER, such an important American concession to Russia just now will be regarded by tjie whole of continental Europe as a stab in the tjack of America's European allies, and in par- Jcular, of the leaders of the anti-Communist uropean coalition France and West Germany. There are, of course, American liberals who advocate just that policy. These liberals are, to "BY MID-THURSDAY morning, the U.S. Steel Corporation had been subpoenaed for all documents bearing on the crime, and had learned that a federal grand jury would move swiftly to see what laws had been violated by asking three tenths of a cent a pound more for a piece of steel "In such a climate it was not all surprising what the mailed fist could do. All day Friday, steel company offices were awash with government agents, while the threats of punishment were mingled with promises of reward for doing the rulers' bidding.

It is a technique of government not unknown elsewhere in the world, and it is a combination almost Irresistible. So by Friday night, Mr. Kennedy had his There were some caustic comments from other cities across the nation. The Tampa, Times in an editorial said that President Kennedy "has taken unto himself a veto power fully as weighty as that exercised by the Soviet Union in the United Nations." The editorial added: "The efforts last night of some radio commentators to impart a sense of delicacy to the President's crackdown on big steel was almost laughable. He waded in with both fists flying and never mind the low blows "BIG STEEL may yet salvage something out of this and may, at a later date, justify and known that the April 2 organizational meeting of United World Federalists was called for those people who were old members and wished to proceed with setting up a Phoenix chapter.

A second meeting of the original group has not yet been planned. Nor was any conclusive vote taken on "action" as opposed to discussion and education as Mrs. Fon Today's Postcard Londoners Face Springless Year By STAN DELAPLANE LONDON Spring will be a little late this year. Green Park was green as an Irish waistcoat from the windows of the American Club in London. But the doorman's nose was cherry-red, it was that chilly.

"It might come about summer any time, sir. It might pawss the spring altogether. It's a way In the atmosphere created by the somewhat rapid attack by the President, perhaps the steel companies could do nothing but withdraw from their position certainly their lack of concerted action indicates no collusion but I presume brother Robert will find cause for some action. It would seem that the operation of the companies under sound economic conditions was of more importance to the welfare of the country than whether the families of our servicemen abroad did or did not visit them, and if the latter is of the importance the President chose to indicate, perhaps a reduction of a puny million or two in some other expenditures would have made it possible. I only hope, as you do, that sober reflection on the part of enough of our citizens will put this whole matter in a different light than is the case today.

If not, God help us. EDWARD T. HF.NSON. Prescott Hook Appreciated Editor, The Arizona Republic: It was certainly a great surprise to receive the book, "This is Arizona." A very unexpected gift and most sincerely appreciated. It has a wealth of information and most interesting reading.

So this little note is for a very sincere "thank you." ALBERT A. VALANCIUS, Chicago There are a whole host of new teaching tools being developed, some of which are available, a few are audio-visual aids of all kinds, short and full course length teaching films, (full course films are available on high school physics and chemistry which have demonstrated on tests teaching abilities superior to anything but that of the most outstanding personal teaching relationship), open and closed circuit television, taped programs for use by experts, teaching machines, etc. THIS IS A wholly new field with enormous promise. The local school boards, school authorities, teachers and students, should actively enter into the challenge of their development and use. As an example of what can be done in a similar situation, the building trades have always, until recently, and all over the country, been slow to utilize new and more efficient methods.

Here in Washington, the Evening Star in an editorial described the routing out Of reporters at three o'clock in the morning and the activities of government apencies, including the orders given by the Pres dei t's brother to a federal grand jury. The ed'rlal added: "This power should be exercised only to Investigate a suspected criminal offense -and to prosecute the offender if evidence of Crime is developed. It should never be used as an instrument of retaliation by an outraged president, or an angered attorney general." Where, however, are the conservatives of both the Democratic and Republican parties, the men who have hitherto championed the Constitution and fought against autocracy in any form? They surely cannot succumb to the doctrine that, be-, cause price rises are unpopular, the end justifies the means. For what's popular today will not always be popular tomorrow as the people ultimately get all the facts.

If price and wage controls are necessary, Congress alone has the power to impose them by law. It certainly Isn't the function of a president to make the laws without Congress at least not yet.

I should like to know their feeling on world law. There are formal "peace" organizations in Russia, although they have not advocated world law as far as I know. Perhaps this should lead me to beliee that a peace organization which does not advocate world law must be subversive! EVELYN MARTIN.

Tempe Questions Editor, The Arizona Republic: In my opinion, it is time for the citizens of the United States of America to take a long, hard look at recent events. Are we to have business big and small private enterprise and initiative; the elements that have made us the greatest nniion in the world, or big government? Would we rather have the "tiny handful" of free enterprise men or a "tiny handful" of big government bureaucrats pointing the way we are going? The choice is ours. God help us if we choose unthinkingly. HELEN E. MacVEAGH fpiy the least, very "impatient" with the "inflexibility" of Adenauer.

They hate DeGaulle. They Believe that the United States has to make a frank ind open deal with Russia, at the expense of our ight-wing allies, for the sake of the "relaxation Jf tensions" and "world peace." If the Kennedy administration is ready to accept tjie liberal proposal for the solution of the Berlin Jjroblem as the Rusk-Dobrynin talks indicate are in for a most dangerous period in the development of our foreign policy relations toward Europe. For such a liberal policy would completely wreck the NATO alliance, and would hand the Communists their most important diplomatic and political gains since the Reds were allowed to swallow half of Europe at the Teheran 4nd Yalta summit conferences during World ar II.
