I for one don't see that Mr. Douglas or anyone else owes "Servant of Brotherhood" Scales a damn thing'in the way of debate. He has had, his "day in court" and had for many years the right to debate.

Why does any one with any self-respect have to argue with Mr. Scales now that he has been convicted under tne Smith Act? The only thing wrong with his conviction was that they did not hang him.

Thear handbook for thp 2.000 delegates mentions a rough estimate of the" financial needs of U. S.

schools but generally implies that the case for Federal aid still needs to be proved Their attitude has1 already caused doubts and misgivings among educators, politicians and labor. The attempt of the national committee to soft-pedal the question of Federal aid especially met with resistance in the state conclaves which preceded this week's meeting. In New York, for example, the state conference revolved against its leader-chin and forced inclusioiw'ejf a recommendation for outright Federal aid to schools. blood of daily living, amply frosted with some of the most picturesque language on record.

Its most compliant readers are those who disrelish it most.

They profess hatred for the magazine, for its views, for its publisher (Henry Luce), for its publisher's wife, Clair Booth Luce, and, less openly and perhaps more ashamedly, for the influence it plays on their own thinking. Probably no other periodical in the nation, with the exception of Facts Fdrum and others of the school, produces such egregious partisanship under the physiognomy, of objectivity. Time is un-dilutedly Republican. It is scurrilous in its treatment of left-wingers, yet staunchly favorable to racial desegregation. And only in a.

One Mistake With Two Punishments Unfortunately for what seems to be fair administration of justice, students are frequently tried for civil offenses by both civil courts and student courts. When we brought this matter up recently, defenders of the status quo contended that this double prosecutioff for the same incident does not constitute double jeopardy. Perhaps not, technically speaking, but is this present system ol double trial fair? Here's how it works: A student, for instance, is anested in town for disturbing the peas And. accoding to local town laws, he is hauled into "court and, if guilty, he pays for his crime. Then, alter the student has paid his debt to Chape! Hill the student courts lrequeinly tale the same offender and try him.

Many of them are frankly eager for some kind of explosion which would arouse the public to the need for action.

It is on Democratic leader Johnson's list for Congressional action, and it is widely expected that the Administration will offer its own plan.

Following them came the Navy ROTC drum and bugle corps, drumming1 but not as yet bugling, then a Navy color guard, then Navy drill team marching like clockwork in close order as if to try and keep warm. Then there wa an embarrassing 150-foot space. I was just about to giffle slitherly on up the street and see if I couldn't raise the drum majorette sgain, when a little girl standing next to me shrieked "There's more in the tone of voice one might use to warn people of the second half of a double tital wave.

There was indeed more coming. The Air Force, not to be outdone, appeared in full force witY, a 'white-spatted drill team, which seemed to spend most of its time going in the opposite direction from the rest of the parade. There were so many to-lhe-rear-marches that I couldn't keep track of exactly what it was they were doing, and after a while I just put all their maneuvering antics down to the Air Force's inherent restless urge to get up in the air and away from it all. The Air Free revealed itself, produced a subsidiary contingent in the form of a deep-froen band, and fol lowed this up with seven chilly convertible-loads of honorary Air Force colonelesses, or whatever it is they're called, all looking cheery and bright and Christmasy but actually wishing they could get out of the uniforms and have a lovely pajama party or' something in a nice warm sorority house.
