The Hays Daily News by Kiwi Co, 112 fc. Mots, and BkJitor, 1929-1058 Albftrt At.McF&Hlfi- -Editor Otllj Clasi oAtd kt Rkniai fttw el By pit tttil, 18,88 till I9.RO In lUU. Oat 110.80 Friday, ft, ieai To A The first step toward bringing the senoql unification law up for constitutional determination was taken in the dis- trttt court in Hill City today. Regardless of th6 of that court, it is under- it Will be carried to the state's high ftl where it will either be found tossed out and thereby handed back, to the legislature to hash over once sirain. As passed at the last meeting of the is at best seemingly a hddtte-pbdge mess formulated after much DUCK passing and compromise.

In the rural areas it IB meeting with anything but jvholehearted approval, as attested by the stilt jomea in by some sixteen districts in counties hereabouts. 1 A strong feeling exists here on the high prairies that the local people who support the school? are better qualified tb determine What is best for them than directions and "compulsions" arrived at in Topeka. of high, handed unification point out the dislocatipns involved in unifying and the economic hardships such a transformation will impose on property owners in which will lose their sch'odljs. Property valuations, they rightly say, will plummet. On the other hand the "ayes" of unification contend it will result in better School all the money in one large district better 'and more roundly staffed 1 faculties.

Many school administrators, and boards of education, think it is all a lot of malarkey. As one educator was quoted in yesterday's News, "it is not the type of people of rural Kansas communities need or want." And he added, "we definitely feel we want no part of compulsory unification now or later." He expressed an opinion widely held in small communities and by rural patrons want to keep their schools where they can manage the affairs involved therein. And in the meantime the county poards and subcommittees working on unification plans will halt their activities awaiting the Supreme Court ruling, which be watched with more than ordinary interest. Who Calls Signals It was not a scheduled debate. It did not even occur at the same time before the same audience.

Nevertheless, it was a debate because Secretary of Labor Arthur J. Goldberg came before the National Association of Manufacturers to ask for a better understanding of the Kennedy Administration's policy toward business and labor the day after NAM President John W. McGovern warned that those policies, while not deliberately seek- ing socialism, are fast taktof there. Goldberg told the manufacturers that both labor and managettteM laek faith Jh the government labbr ptflicies, with tfte attitudes of both dependent upon "whdSe ox is gored" in any given situation, In a sense, McGovern had answered him the previous day, when he told the Detroit Economic Club, "the policies of the planners will eventually cause us all to look to Washington for our economic signals, even though neither the people, Congress, the President nor his advisers were deliberately seeking socialism," He insisted "the time and energies of our tional Government should be reserved for such vital matters as only the Government can handle- such as national defense and foreign policy, not fritted, away on a "multitude of problems which can and should be dealt with at local and state levels." That is the heart of the difference between Government and industry, but political bureaucracy was never known to relinquish voluntarily any of its power and authority. It's amazing to what lengths a yOung lady will go to cover skin blemishes, and show goose pimples, young the lig about the time of year for lovers to begin cutting their hay in the light of the harvest moon.

We wouldn't say the horse and buggy days are gone. We still have the horsey set, and the buggy set, too. Other Editors Say World Somebody is always taking the Joy out of life. This time it's the Food and Drug administration which warns the public tp beware of any cosmetics claimed to have "mysterious miracle ingredients." While cosmetics are a boon to like in the Brave, New World, the food and drug fellows advise that none fall for products that claim to restore "youthful skin," "grow hair on bald heads" or other farfetched promises of like nature. "The are only Interested in "your money," these hard-shells conclude.

Thus, the moon of our delight wanes, Aswe sit before television and listen to a recital of. the wonder that will result if we only use copious quantities of Old Doc Braghorn'S ointment and unguent, we thrill with anticipation. We see ourselves as a handsome, well-groomed figure appearing in the Best Circles, dispensing the glamor of our charm on every hand. But our dreams fade. The drug fellows say flatly that said ointment will not create personal attractiveness or pulchritude, and that all the hucksters are interested in is our money.

It's a Crool World, that constantly throws road blocks in the way of the good, the true and the Dorado Times. Washington, Oct. 6 publlcati National Chairman William E. Miller said today the Ken nedy administration was guilty of favoritism and "at- tempMhg to use reporters as political propaganda conduits." Writing in Editor and Publisher, a trade magazine, Miller, New York congressman, said American's' "right to know Is be- ng cruelly eroded and will continue to be until this administration comes to regard information as a public trust rather thah a political operation." "Last April," said Miller, "the Freedom of Information Committee of the American Society of Newspaper Editors concluded that the Kennedy administration had run out on Ita glowing campaign pledges tp keep the American peo- fully informed. Sigma Delta iht's professional journalism fraternity Freedom of Information lommittee, equally disillusioned, underscored these findings." Miller said the facts on the President's back ailment "were suppressed for three weeks and revealed to reporters only when the need to appear in public with crutches forced it out." "Compare this," he said, "with straightforward, complete release of details on former President Eisenhower's illness." Miller said that "perhaps the administration's crassest attempt to use newsmen as prppaganda pipelines came in mid-September when a group of 30 Washington correspondents met secretly at at the home of a reporter for a favored Kennedy paper.

"Among those not invited: the Los Angeles Times, Dallas News, Detroit News, Chicago Tribune, Kansas City Star," Miller said. Miller sa.id White House staffers arrived at the meeting with a memorandum "setting forth the line' on the Kennedy administration's 'successes' in the 1961 session of Congress." "Its White House source was to be concealed." "To the credit of the assembled newsmen," said Miller, "most of them did not buy it."

Military Speakers Are Ordered To Stick To Military Subjects Washington, Oct. Sec- jfetary of Defense Robert S. Mc- Kamara has decreed that military speakers at private seminars must gtick to military subjects, avoid partisan expressions and must not Challenge established policy. McNamara drew these and other boundaries Thursday for military participation in seminars and other information programs sponsored by nongovernmental groups. He left with local commanders (he responsibility for determining whether military personnel, equipment and facilities should be allowed to take part in such activities.

But he specified that no military organization may sponsor or to-sponsor such programs unless he or a service secretary express- ly approves. Pentagon sources said the rules, filling out what have been general policies, are intended to dispel any doubts or confusion in the minds of local commanders. McNamara circulated the memorandum at the top level of the Pentagon as a Senate subcommittee was preparing to open an inquiry, perhaps next month, into Defense Department policies in this field. Sen. Strom Thurmond, D-S.

has argued that the Pentagon has been stopping- officers from espousing anti-Communist views in speeches and lectures. Other senators have complainec that some military officers have been involved in seminars leaning toward the far right.

For For Comparable 1960 Dennis Tne Mrs. K. Says Reds Are Not Building Shelters Moscow, Oct. Nikita Khrushchev told a group of Western "peace marchers" today that the Soviet Union was making no effort to build air raid shelters. "There Is no defense in a nuclear war," said Nina Khrushchev, the wife of the premier.

"Therefore we are not building any bomb shelters. We are not getting ready." Mrs. Khrushchev made her after spending an hour exchanging pleasantries and debating disarmament with the marchers, who arrived here Tuesday. The debate took place at Moscow's "House of Friendship," where Mrs. Khrushchev's aides served tea, chocolate and apples.

Most of the marchers did their best to convince Mrs. Khrushchev that, if the world refuses to disarm, one country should set a good example by discarding all Its armaments. Mrs. Khrushchev declined to agree. "We do not want to be the only ones who throw our bombs into the Ocean," she said.

She added that in the past 40 years, the Soviet Union has. had many unfortunate experiences with war and does not want to be In a position where it could be trampled upon again.

Kansan Stands Trial For Two Greece Slay ings Piraeus, Greece, Oct. 6 A witness testified today that American Roger Ranney, on trial on charges of killing two Greek sailors last year, had purchased a small boat to sail to Spain.

Ranney denied the charges. He told authorities he last sa.w the men at Poros alive and well. The sailors have not been found.
