HATHAWAY

REPORTS by Congressman William Hathaway

by Congressman William D. Hathaway one of the most perplexing problems that faces me as a mem­

her of the HouseEducationand Labor Committee, is what is the right approach for the financing of higher education.

Today, there are more than 15-1/2 million young Americans ofcollegeage. Only six million of them are, in fact, in college. Itis not prophecy but a statement of obvious fact that in the fu­ture an increasing percentage and number of young Americans will attend college. What is not clear is how their educatiop will be.Jinanceo. The loan progr am aims at assisting students - not colleges - to carry the costs of higher education.

In Augus t of last year the Panel of Educationlnnovation ofthe P resident's Advisory Committee released its report after a study of plans for financing. It's proposal revolves around an Educational Opportunity Bank. An involved plan for a much­broadened student loan program. In the long run, is this the right appr oach?

InourElementaryand Secondary schools, we assume that the costof education should be borne by the tax-paying public, and that the education should be provided free of cost to the student. Our system of higher education has been and still is something of a hybrid in this respect. We have public universities at which &-orne of the expenses are covered by tuition fees and private colleges which depencl largely on tuit:.on and alumni support for their financing, but for whieh Government assistance' has be ­come increasingly s ignificant in r edent years . There a re some who believe that we should move in the direction of extending the public education concept to virtually all of our colleges and universities. This view is grounded in large part in principle and upon the contribution that education makes to the national well-being. .

Although the immediate benefits of higher education accrue to the student, there are also important benefits to the economy and to the nation. The public education concept also finds S!!P­port in the concern that many feel about the ability of young people to assume heavy debt responsibility, and the social and economic effects of such debts.

At the same time, it can be argued that the logical basis for tax- supported public education must be the near-universal avail­ability and use of the educational system. The overwhelming majority of our young people do go to elementary and secondary schools, but many may not want to a ttend college. It m2:· be unfair to tax them and their families to support the expans1on ofpublichigher education. Of course, another form of tax sup-

. port, is the much discusse.d tax credit for education expenses. It also has been pointed out that the tax support arrangement

is inefficient and inequl table in the sense tha~ i t requires all of us to pay for the college education of students who can wellaf­ford to pay their own way. These views obviously have not been allowed to stand in the way of public elementary and secondary education, but some feel that it has g~eater force in the context of higher education. As you can see , these finaneing questions

THE T OWN CRI ER

bring us unavoidably to some of the most basic issues in the field of higher education. Indeed the choice between putting the burden upon the student and putting the burden upon the tax­payers i s an issue with vast social, economic, and political implications and one to which there is no easy answer . As diffi­cult as the answer may b e , it will not prevent a national assualt on the financial barrier s to higher education.

I would certainly appreciate any of your comments on this problem. It is a problem that in'Volves all of us and on the suc­cessful resolution of it depends the future of 01;1r country.

THE TOWN CRIER

Rev. Carlton Cockey United Baptist Chu1·ch, Milo

"LIVING IN OUR REALM -IN THE CHRISTIAN WORLD" U sl.ng the poetical name for Israel, ,Jeshurun, Moses romi.nded

them that they were prosperous and a m1.1rmuring crowd of peo­ple. God has a way of dealing with people \\ho kick against him . This is the same word used in I Samud 2:29, "'Wherefore kick ye at my sacrifice· . .. which 1 have comm~u1ded in my habita­tion: . .. " God's purpose is fo!· us to live in a spedal realm ro­cei ving his facor and anointing above others. All they needed and all we need is to step out and b elieve God a nd honor his Word. As believers God would have us mount up on high and live above fea r, confusion, turmoil and the filth and corruption of this world. Kicking is not going to make us live above these problems. God will deal with us if we do not honor the Bible . The more you kick the more miserable you become.

We can inform the people about our natioMl problems. God is s tirri ng and chastising us. We cannot do much except sound an a larm. But we have the power to do something about .:>ur­selves.

Jesus uses this word 'kick ' in Acts 9: 5, "· .. it is bard for thee to kicl< against the pricks . " Jesus told Paul if you continue to take a stubborn attitude against me it is going to be hard with you. Paul wisely added, "Lord, what wilt thou have me to do ? ... , verse 6. God did not say , just sit there, but rather, 'A­rise' was the command given: God does n'ot cail us to do some­thing that will get us headlines. He calls us so we must react with e ffort. "Saul you move, then I will give y0u light" is the sense of the words of the command of God. ' Moses and Joshua both had trouble with the people of God. They found them kicking and murmuring. They always wanted to stay in the same old rut. Much.of this was inactivity. Then they began to think they were being abused and would murmur . If we are going to move forward in the Word in faith, we· need a sense of devotion, a sE:nse of sacrifice, a sense of loyalty and a sense of loyality to our Church or we just go backward.

In the e nd Joshua saw he could only speak for himself so he said, "As for me a nd my house we will serve the Lord," Josh 24:15. Itmustgetdowntothlsfor ourselves . This is a personal choice~ we must make in our life. I suggest you do as Joshua. If others want to live like the world and serve the flesh and walk in the path of least resistance , there is not much you can do about it. But, you serve the Lord. It is a serious problem we face in the world , How much are

you with the Lord in worship and devotion? We know there is a limit. ,Joshua got old. People still have this habit. This does curtail our activity. Still we are ca.l.lcd on to str<::ngthen the faith of one another. If we are not strengthening faith we arc destroying it.

WemustbecomeactiveintheChristianrealm of life. We must be diligentand faithful to our calling. We need to be stirred up and reminded of our responsi.bili ty .

We have been <.:alled to serve. Because the good peopl<.: do not serve butgiveGod the left-overs we have no sense of respousi­blli ty to those who are seeking tr uth, especially our youth.

You just cann.ot live in two realms. When we commit our life to Christ we promise him to leave one world and live in another. Let us dedicate our life to this purpose. Let us live in our call­ed realm, The Christian World.

MILO WITNESSES ATTE ND C:ONYENTION AT WATERVILLE Members of the ·Milo Congregation of Jeliovah's Wi.tnes ses

were among the 940 persons a t the Water ville Armory Sunday who heard Minister Paul R. Ruggles state that God is about to inter vene in men's affl:l,ii·s . ' .

Mr. Ruggles, ' traveh~g supervisor ~for J ehovah 's witness es, was principal speaker during the weekend -convention for minis­ters from 18 congregationS of the ~roup in Maine. In . his public address he said tha t no matter who we are or where we live on thls earth, each. one of us is Ul}.der di vine observation. Being obser ved is a n indication that God i s keenly interested in us and in our affairs ..

Ruggles described to hls a udience how anci ent Israel fell i nto pagan practices of child sacrific'e and flagrant immorality until God intervened by per m itting ~s natio~, after repeated warn­ings; to be taken into Babylonian captivity.

"Today, " he said,- ' 'most of mankind i s experiencing condi ­tions similar to Is rael 's. ReportSfromar ound the wo:rld tes tify to the general moral breakdown. Crime inthe United States is growing 7 times faster than the pop1..1lation. Im morll,lity is often condoned and even encour aged by cl~rgymen and educators . "

Ruggles pointed out that becuase nations possess weapons capable of destroying all life on earth, .God 's intervention i s oocessary and imminent. "Such interventi on will not be to straighten out this confused world , " he said . "but to destroy those opposing his kingdom, the same kingdom that. will br ing endless life, happine ss and· peace to those accepting its rule .

An outstanding feature of the three-day convention was the baptism and or dina tion ·of 33 new ministers . Last year 18, 582 were ordained in the United States alone .

THE TOWN CRIER

liU'hat's On This W'eekT

by Matt Troy "RAT PATROL"

With a name like Rat Patrol the viewer expects a rugged­action; blood and guts televi­sion show. But in true fact, there is hardly any violence (with the exception of a few shootouts) inRatPatrol. There . is a c tion and excitement as the program follows the s tory of Sgt. Sam Troy (Sorry foll{s, . no r e lation) and his desert jeep patrol. Other members of his crew are Hitchcock and Moff­itt. There is a lso a Fugitiye plot t0 this show as they (being Troy's Rat Patrol) a r e always being chased by Deitrich (a typical bad German guy who wears a German helmet in­s tead of a black hat) as in the Fugitive Richard Kimble was chased by Lt. Gerard.

In spite of its failing, Rat . Patr ol made the top t-wenty highly rated s hows last year which only goes to prove that a lot of people enjoy Rat Pa­trol. If you haven't seen the Rat Patrol, then why not try it. You may find you '11 like it.

LINCOLN JAYCEES SEEK MISS AMERICA The Lincoln Jaycees and Jaycee Mates will sponsor a pros­

pective contestant's clinic at the Home Economics Room of Mat­tanawcookAcademy at 2:30 in the afternoon of Sunday, January 28, 1968 to acquaint area young ladies with the qualifications, rewards, history and obligations of a preliminary Miss America pageant entrant. The entrants committee for the twelfth annu~l Miss Greater Lincoln Scholarship Pageant under the supervl­sion of Mrs. Gail King and project chairman, Gary Crocker, are very enthusiastic over their first venture in providing area youngladies and their parents with the Miss America scholar­shipprogramand a time to distribute the inforn:tation concern­ing the participation of a girl in a preliminary pageant.

Planned for the Sunday afternoon pr ogram will be a.special film from the Miss America headquarters, a discussion of scholarships, eligibility and responsibilities of contestants, an interview time with the reigning Miss Greater Lincoln, Joan Whalen, who is currently attending a higher education·school in Maine, and a question and answer period at whi.ch time girls or their parents may present any inquiries they might have con­cer ning the pageant program. Any girl who feels she might be interested in becoming a contestant is cordially invited to attend and the session is open to the public.

MORE RAPID PROMOTIONS FOR ARMY OCS GRADUATES The Army recently announced details of two new plans which

will bring rapid promotions and increases in pay to young male college graduates who are commissioned fol19wing successful completion of Army Officer Candida~ School (OCS).

Every contributor to yARE 's Food Crusade gets a receipt showing wher~ his help· was sent.

One plan reduces the time-in-grade requirement for promo­tion to first lieutenant; the other reduces the time-in-grade r equirement for promotion to· captain. The. two plans, which · are now being phased in and which will become fully effeotl.ve May 2, 1968, will make it possible for young men to l;leoome

. captains 24 months after receiving their comroiss ions. Sgt. First Class Louis Lonko of the local recruiting station

explained the benefits of OCS and the new rapid promotion plans. "OCS training stresses leadership development; the new plans s tress recognition of outstanding ability through rapid promo­tions which bring increased salaries, responsibilities and pres-· tige, " he said.

"OCS graduates receive the kind of job experience and re­sponsibility which make them valuable to both military leaders and civilian employers and which put them ahead of men who took civilian jobs directly after graduating from oollege, ''he continued.

Following successful completion of basic combat training and advanced individual training, qualified young men wishing to become Army officers attend one of the Army's Officer Candi­date Schools. Graduates of Army OCS's are commissioned as second lieutenants and assigned to junior executive positions at Army installations throughout the world.

Young men interested in obtaining additional information about Army Officer Candidate School may write or visit Sgt. Lonko at Kondos Building, Dover-Foxcroft, or call him at 564-2067.
