.While numerous students lounge on the library steps
between classes, few of them walk 20 steps to explore the
Alben W. Barkley Room.
The room is located Just outside the main entrance
of the Margaret I. King Library.
The late Mr. Barkley served Kentucky for more
than 40 years as a member of Congress and was Vice

* Revision Is Not Enough
Encouraging

news came out of

the Department of Aerospace Science
recently when we learned its cadet
training system is being revamped. It
is even more heartening because a
weak program of training freshmen
and sophomore cadets, and even cadet
officers, for higher ranks and greater
responsibility has resulted in rampant
confusion for more than long enough.
Mass turmoil occurs early in each
fall semester because of the present
ineffective program. An untutored
cadet wing commander takes charge
of a situation entirely new to him.
Other cadets find themselves in the
same predicament.
This unfamiliarity with military
command responsibilities at all rank
levels ultimately results in confusion
on the drill field for most of the fall

idea of what is going on and neither
leaders.
do their
The new system devised by Col.
Richard C. Boys, professor of air
science, will attempt to correct the
errors. It will allow the cadet to have
a taste of the job he will be perform- -

ing in the future. In reality, he will
gain
experience during
May before he actually assumes full
responsibility of his duty in the fall.
We are glad Col. Boys realizes
a need to plane down the unnecessary rough edges of the AFROTC
program. Naturally, this new plan will
not solve all the problems facing the
AFROTC program, but it will reduce
the confusion experienced at the beginning of each fall semester.
In line with the revamped orders
of the Aerospace Department, it is
time again for someone in the University administration to consider revamping University regulations, particularly those pertaining to the compulsory reserve officer training program. There could not be a more
opportune time than on the heels of
the recent Faculty decision to disbar) the idea of a University requirement for physical education.
Our society is one based on the
principles of individual freedom and
choice. Compulsory ROTC does not
fit within the framework of the American ideas of liberty.

Planners' Prophecies
Well do we remember, back about
1930, a high school guidance counselor who warned us and our conagainst pursuing entemporaries
gineering as a career. There was, he
of engineers,
said, a
and he urged us all to choose a
career that offered a more promising
future.
Today, what do we see? News
stories that begin: "The nation's
shortage of engineers shows almost
every sign of worsening . . ." Advertisements that beckon engineers with
all sorts of golden promises. And the
Health, Education and Welfare Department warning that the continuing
drop in college engineering enrollment may dangerously "tip the balance of brainpower"
against the
United States.
We certainly don't want to discourage anybody from studying to
be an engineer. Our advice, for what
it's worth, is that a fellow who wants
to be an engineer more than anything else in the world should plan
e

to be one. But that, if what he really
wants to be is, say, a poet, he ought
to plan to be a poet and forget about
the world's "balance of brainpower."
For when the Government says
that the nation urgently will need
72,000 engineering graduates every
year for the next decade, we can't
help recalling that guidance counselor. And how the planners' prophecies often on't turn out as neatly as
The Wall Street
they should.

THE READERS' FORUM
Religion For Granted
To The Editor:

The

purpose

of public

schools

is not to instruct and guide children

in religious beliefs and practices," you
proclaimed in ail editorial, March 1.
Mr. Editor, do the public schools
want to guide children in specific
religious beliefs and practices? No,
but they want them to have A religion.
"Reading the Bible might very
well conflict or contradict what the
child is taught at home or in places
of worship which he attends." What
is wrong with this? Is it not by raising questions, and then being able to
answer them that a person's religion becomes strong and meaningful?
Why shouldn't a child ask questions based on what he hears in
school? If the answers satisfy him,
his faith will be stronger. If not, he
will seek something that he can believe in completely. There is no

weaker worshiper than one who believes in a religion merely because it
is the denomination of his parents.
Also, there is nothing wrong in
believing in one religion, while knowing at the same time what other religions believe. This type of knowledge leads to religious tolerance.

Too many people take their religion for granted. They haven't had
to think what their religion really
means to them.

Collective Ba rga in ing In The Na Hon a I In teres t

WASHINGTON
(AP) -- Secretary
of Labor Arthur J. Goldberg has had
to blow away some of the semantic
fog that settled around a talk he made
about the government's role in collective bargaining.
He was responsible for some of
the fog. The rest came from people
who didn't like what they heard, or
thought they heard. In a speech recently in Chicago he said:
"In the past when government
officials were called upon to assist
in collective bargaining their only
aim was to achieve a settlement.
"Today, in the light of our nation's commitments both at home and
abroad, government and private
must increasingly provide
guidelines to the parties to insure that
the settlements reached are right settlements that are not only in the
interest of the parties themselves but
which also take into account the public interest."
Just what are guidelines? Cold- rs

berg didn't quite make this clear at
the time. But AFL-CIPresident
George Meany and some people in
the steel industry didn't wait to find
out.
Both of them thought Goldberg
had in mind more government interference. Goldberg was so disturbed
by this reaction that he called in reporters to explain.
What it amounted to was this:
The government does intend to stick
its fingers a little deeper into
wage disputes when the
outcome either in higher prices and
wages or a strike will affect the national welfare at home or abroad.
It has been common practice for
a government mediator, when called
in to help straighten out a snarled
negotiation, to
up
suggest to one side settlement terms
he thinks are reasonable enough for
the other side to accept.
But Goldberg, who said flatly he
is against any government wage or
price controls or compulsory arbitration, explained what he had in mind:

Neither he nor the government
intends to try to impose settlement
terms in collective bargaining but to
suggest in a general way and sometimes very specifically what will be
good for the national interest.
This amounts to moral pressure.
And there's nothing new in that. But
Goldberg also has an idea that will
bring public pressure to bear on a
union and management in an important industry after a settlement, when
it could have no practical effect on
the outcome.
He said he intends to have the

government lay down statistics and
statistics would mean wages, prices,
costs, hours worked in comparison
with other industries before a dispute gets out of hand.
The Kennedy administration already has put more pressure on the
steel industry and the steelworkers
union, now busy in bargaining on
a new contract, by calling for a fair
settlement.
The last time there was a steel
strike 116 days in 1959 the whole
country felt the effects.
