decision to withdraw was
based mainly on the political nature of NSA. Opponents of the
withdrawal legislation argued information services were the basic
function of NSA. They also said
political affairs discussed at national NSA meetings should be
of significance to today's students.
According to the approved
legislation, withdrawal from the
organization is effective immediately.
The bill, written by Rep. Oscar Westerfield, was amended by
the review committee before presentation to Congress. Still, however, two members of the three-macommittee were opposed to
the withdrawal.
Presenting the majority report
of the committee, Rep. Maija
Avots said, "We can't argue
about the benefits of NSA since
we haven't taken advantage of
them."
Westerfield presented the committee's minority report, saying ". . . NSA offers no sound
benefits to our Student Congress,
and is a violation of our purpose."
"Our withdrawal adds no deterrent to the University's student government," he added.
NSA's side was represented by
Pete Wales, chairman of the

By

Kernel News Editor
Thursday night's withdrawal
from the National Student Association by UK's Student Congress exemplifies an attitude
about the role of campus government which NSA is trying to
change, an NSA troubleshooter
said.
Political noninvolvement by
student governments is the very
thing NSA is lighting to erase
on the Americ an college campus,
Pete Wales, chairman of the
told the
board,
supervisory
Kernel in an interview after the
Congress meeting.
Wales had flown in from
Chicago to present the NSA story
to Congress, not to persuade
members, he said, but to enlighten them.
"A decision to withdraw or
remain in NSA is your decision,"
he told the group.
Later, lamenting over the SC
action, he said he definitely feels
UK should be an NSA member.
"I think Kentucky's student
government has a great potential
lor exercising leadership here,
since other area schools'are only
beginning to realize that it's time
lor the South to emerge and take
a look at other student governments.
"Iking from North Carolina,
I believe in reconstruction of the
South by the South, and 1 feel

students can lead the way for
this revolution," he said.
"I agree with a Yale administrator who said all but a few
student governments have become like Shakespeare's unsubstantial pageants not really
being relevant to the needs and
tilings modern students are becoming interested in."
Nearly all activist groups on
campuses, like Young Americans
Students for a
for Freedom,
Democratic Society, the YMCA,
have formed outside of student
government, he said.
"Withdrawal by student governments from controversial issues has caused a great amount
of apathy among student bodies,"
he charged.
Besides destroying that apathy, NSA hopes to make student
government bodies that really
effect the students they represent
by bringing about a "resurgence
of relev ancy."
That relevancy was the same
arguments
expressed by Congress members
and others w ho wercagainst NSA

withdrawal.

Congress
Discussing the
meeting, Wales said it was evident "the battle lines had been
drawn ahead of time and that
many representatives knew little
about NSA.
"They still hav e a lot to learn

about us, and 1 hope they send
observors to next summer's congress," he said.
He said he detected a bit of

"railroading" by the administration when presiding officer
John O'Brien turned down a request for recognition by a representative who had a compromise to offer.

"Steve Cook privately
formed the chair that he had a
compromise he desired to offer
before debate stretched out, but
he was told that someone else
would be recognized."
"1 would have liked to have
seen that compromise brought
about; it would have been most
beneficial and most objective."
in-

Hep. Cook proposed a one-yetrial period in which UK
would continue NSA member-

ship under funds already budgeted in a sort of "cooling oil
period" to learn more about the
organization.
He also said he feels student governments should not
to
themselves
limit
petty matters,
but should try to broaden their
views and areas of involvement.
"1 disagree with the idea
that student governments should
be very careful about what they
deal with. They should branch
out, be more agressive."

told Congress he wanted to provide a background of NSA; not
debate the withdrawal issue.
Wales said NSA's position on
political stands "tries to stimulate students and make them
think." He said an awareness of
political issues was especially important to Kentuckians since they
have voting privileges at 18
years-of-ag-

"NSA is for broadening hornot narrowing them,"
Wales said.
He explained any school could
divorce itself from NSA's political stands by tacking a minority
viewpoint onto a bill. "The vote
is not binding," he added.
However, Winston Miller, Congress president, argued later that
NSA, under the guise of representing students enrolled in its
membership, serves as a pressure
group in Congressional matters.

Steve Bcshcar, former Congress president under whom the
body joined NSA last year, urged
"
SC representatives to be
"I'm afraid some of
you are biased on this issue,"
"open-minded.-

Bcshcar said.
As the withdrawal bill read,
one of its main complaints with
NSA affiliation was a conflict
with the purpose of Congress as
set forth in the constitution.
Beshear, partial author of the
constitution, said, "It's ridiculous to take a phrase (from the
constitution) and say that we
should not join any political organizations. We did not intend
that (avoiding political organizations) when we wrote it."
John O'Brien, Congress vice
president, argued that in voting
to remain in NSA "would be

Foreign Student Leaders
View U.S. Campus Politics
By CLARA KINNER
Kernel Feature Writer
"I want to try to learn everything I can about students,"
says Dick Wood, one of seven
foreign students visiting Lexington on a study-travtour.
The
Far East Student
Leader program is sponsored by
the U.S. State Department. The
students are from countries in
Southeast Asia, including New
Zealand, Tiavvan, Thialand,
Hong Kong, the Philippines, and
Australia.
The purpose of the program
is to give student leaders an
opportunity to study and compare
student affairs, polities, and
organizations in American uniBefore
versities.
coming to
Lexington, they visited Berkeley,
Calif.
According to Gary Evans,
President of the Student Representative Council at the University of Melbourne, Melbourne,
el

Australia, there is a vast difference in the level of student
involvement in campus affairs.
"At Berkeley, I was impressed
by the immediately noticeable
electric atmosphere, phony, perhaps, but exciting nevertheless."
Evans said most Australian
universities are rather similar.
"About 10 percent of the students
can be relied upon to be actually
involved in a variety of social
issues." He said the other 90
percent are more career conscious
and academically absorbed.
The major issues on the
Melbourne campus are very
similar to those on most American
campuses. Evans said the controversial issues are education,
integration, literary censorship,
and foreign policy.
He explained the U.S. government policy in Vietnam is
supported by about 70 percent
of the students not politically
conscious. This group totals approximately 90 percent.
Among the more politically-mindethe other 10 percent,
about 80 percent of the students
are against the U.S. policy.
However, he commented that
the opposition is not too tightly
organized because too many
people are confused, and too
reluctant to. take a definite stand.
At the University of Melbourne, only 15 percent of the
students are housed by the University. Most of them commute.
The University of Aukland,
Aukland, New Zealand, allows
much student freedom also, said
Dick Wood, president of the
Students' Association there.
Perhaps the main difference
is that the money paid by the
students goes directly to the

their personal images, but we ask, is
it best for those whom they represent? The real losers are the students,
who, through the NSA withdrawal,
have had their only link with a responsible national student group severed.
The administration indicated it has
no need for NSA that it can do
the things NSA has a research staff
to undertake much better than the
organization. We wonder. If the
shuffle of the past few months is any
indication of how well they can do
things, we must be skeptical of such
optimism.
In approving the withdrawal, an
obviously uninformed Congress, voting primarily along the dictates of
Miller and O'Brien, cast an endorsement for backwardness and cloister-ism- .
Such a view is bound to make
SC ineffectual and doomed to fatality

dissolve, its link to the world outside.

Withdrawal from NSA is an unfor-

tunate culmination of the unenlightened
theory of student
government, which would keep the
influence of the student organization
within the narrow confines of the campus. In its implementation previously
this year, such a policy has had little
effect on the average student. However in withdrawl from NSA it has
dealt a devastating blow to all members of the campus community.
Each UK student now has less
chance to be concerned, and exert
his influence along with students

New Procedure For Strikes
The voice was one many had long
been waiting to hear. It was that of a
leader of organized labor calling for
legislation to make strikes in basic
industries unlikely.
Walter P. Reuther, president of the
United Automobile Workers of America, showed commendable courage
and recognition of the facts in discussing the lessons of the New York
transit strike before a Detroit audience. A better way than strikes must
be found, he said, to deal with the
problem of meeting workers' demands
in public service industries."

use of the strike tactic, at the same
time not curtailing the workers' right
to protest. President Johnson, in his
state of the Union message, said he
intends to ask Congress to consider
measures to deal with those strikes
"which threaten irreparable damage
to the national interest."
To find a solution will not be easy.
Industry as well as labor has habitually shied away from anything that
might lead to government price and
wage fixing. Even now the president
of the Chamber of Commerce of the
United States is recommending voluntary price and wage restraint. And
the head of the trade union composed
of state, county, and municipal employees is saying that persons in public employ, with the exception of
police and firemen, must have the
right to strike. But he, too, called for
an independent
panel to
step in when negotiations falter.

He recommended "a tripartite board
of top people from labor, industry,
and government to explore the possibility of creating new mechanisms by
which workers in essential industries
can secure their equity without need
of resorting to strike action." His objective: "Decisions made upon economic facts and not on the basis of
power."

GOP Position Explained

The YRs continue to voice opposition to NSA, mainly because of the
extremely liberal stands taken by the
group, and because of its contention
that it represents the American college student. This opposition continues, contrary to Miss Mills' report
that relations are now more cordial.

MAN ON CAMPUS

LITTLE

Closest To KV's Inmates
By RON HER RON

Kernel Staff Writer
Cottage parents are the workhorses of the Kentucky Village
staff. They spend more hours
with the inmates than any other
workers there.
This constant nearness makes
the cottage parent indirectly
valuable in the therapy program.
If a social worker wants to find
out how a boy is acting outside of the group therapy system,
he asks the cottage parent to
fill out a report on him.

Last of a five-pascries on
Kentucky Village by Kernel
staff writer Ron Herron.

In the simplest sense, cottage
parents merely live with the inmates in eight hour shifts, one
to a cottage.

chew," Bob Holmes, the editor
of the North Carolina State
Technician, says several days and
several demonstrations after he
wrote an editorial condensing the
song "Dixie."

to the scale it has," he said.
"We were just trying to provoke
some discussion
among the
students here, but its gotten out

The editorial had no argument
with the song, only to the reaction
to the music. The editorial added
"it appears that all a group has
to do is strike up a few notes of
that tune and... people automatically shout frantically and
stand up and sing. 'Dixie' represents all of those things the South
should be attempting to lay aside.
'Dixie
gives unreconstructed
Southerners something of the past
to cheer and there certainly is
little in the past of the South
about which anyone should wish
to cheer."
The morning after the editorial
appeared, a big banner reading
"Dixie Forever" appeared on a
smokestack
on the campus.
Students rose at breakfast in the
cafeteria to sing "Dixie."
That night some 600 students
gathered between two dormitories
and began singing the song. Half
of them moved on to the newspaper office after a student
counselor confiscated a bull horn
and told the demonstrators to
move on.
They gathered outside the
office and shouted for the e
