?G. 2, SEC. 2 - PLAIN DEALER - MAY 25, 1967 Holiday Highway Safety Gov. Kerner's "Light Up and Live" message for holiday driving periods is getting an assist at service stations the length •nd breadth of the state. Service station operator s have been asked to remind motorists to turn on car headlights during daylight hours over the holidays. Daytime lighting not only improves visibility during periods Of heavy traffic birt it reminds other motorists of the necessity for sage driving practices on streets and highways. The first holiday period in which the campaign will be in effect will be the Memorial Day holiday from 6 p.m. Monday, May 29, through midnight, Tuesday, May 30. Motorists will get similar reminders during the Independence Day, Labor Day, Christmas and New Year's holiday periods. Dealers cooperating in the campaign are asked to place Up and Live" signs in prominent locations at their stations and to follow up with a personal reminder to motorists of the governor's safety program. The importance of the campaign is evident when one considers that American motorists set ,an all-time record for traffic in 1966. Hie final tabulations show 52,500 killed in the UA / The big spring and summer traffic season is ahead of us. The 102 million licensed drivers in America drove 94 million motor vehicles 922 billion miles in 1966. This is about equal to two million round-trips to the moon. Have your car safety checked now and drive safely this year. May 30th MEMORIAL DAY Dairy Control Support Twiee Told Tales Support of S.612, Dairy Import Control Act of 1967, has been given by Avery A. Vose of Antioch, president of the Pure Milk association, in a letter to all members of a sub-committee of the U. S. Senate Agriculture and Forester committee which began oondiifting a hearing in Washington last week. Mr. Vose charges that unrestrained imports of dairy products into this country are reducing the average American daiiy^ former's income by an estimated $750 a year, and also is costitc foe U. S. taxpayers many millions of dollars by making it necessary for the Commodity Credit Corp. to purchase stockpilesof American-made dairy products at support prices. He pointed out that excessive imports of dairy products have depressed dairy farmer prices to the point erf creating an emergency, adding that a permanent solution is needed. The Dairy Imports Control Act would limit dairy imparts to fiie average annual quantities admitted for the five calendar years 1961 through 1965. TRAFFIC DEATHS DOWN April traffic deaths totaled 154, according to provisional reports released by the Division of Highways and the State Highway Police.

McCLORY REPORTS From Washington / 'v' ,JL fa'/*/ ' by Paul Powell Secretary of State Legislative battle lines are forming on the bill to expand federal aid to elementary and high school education. At issue is the persistent question of "federal control." Congressman Albert H. Quie of Minnesota, second ranking Republican on the House Education committee, has proposed an alternative to the Administration bill that has caused Democrats, including President Johnson, to become alarmed. The Quie (Republican) proposal would not reduce any federal funds available to public, and parochial schools. On the other hand, the Republican measure would eliminate most of the federal bureauacracy -- and would authorize "block grants" permitting local school districts greater freedom in the utilization of federal funds. State superintendents of Education would be responsible for local compliance with the federal objectives including (a) desegregation of schools, and(b) assistance to private and parochial school children. Any state violating either of these objectives would stand to lose its federal contribution. Congressman Quie* s proposal is supported by the other Republican members on the House Education committee ~ and will undoubtedly be endorsedby the influential House Republican Policy committee. The Quie bill represents another example of a Republican "constructive alternative" aimed at solving a national problem in a manner which avoids damage to our federal system. Under the Republican "block grant" measure, communities would make educational decisions in the traditional local manner -- and under state supervision. Certainly the local school administrators know best how to meet their individual educational requirements. Also, they are familiar with those school needs which have the highestpriority. On the contrary, the Administration' s preference for categorical grants (meeting specific, detailed national standards) has frequently resulted in sacrificing urgent educational needs in favor of less urgent projects. Conversations with numerous school administrators in Illinois* 12th Congressional district ( Lake and McHenry counties and Hanover and Barrington townships in Cook county) have convinced this member of Congress of the inequities resulting from the categorical grant program. These same school administrators aver that most inequities can be erased if a "block grant" program is adopted consistent with the goals of assisting all school children on a nonsegregated basis. The Church-State issue is not involved in the Quie amendment. However, some church-oriented school leaders who favor "federal controls" -- as do many other advocates of "federal aid" -- are opposing the Quie amendment. Republican Congressmen, particularly the forty-seven additional Republicans elected last November, interpret their obligation as (Hie of giving "the people" more authority to spend a share of their own money -- COLLEGE INN, NOW! 8:45 & 113© THE TOP AftTlSTS&ACTS PIGHfELY OAVID ROMAINE and his ©rcfcstni Chicago's First Supps?

In this instance, the beneficiaries will be the children whose educational welfare is necessarily programmed and carried out by the local school officials. There can be no question about the sharp distinction in political philosophy on this issue between the Republican and Democratic members of the U. S. House of Representatives. If the Quie (Republican) bill is to prevail approximately 30 Democrats will have to join, the 187 Republicans in the House. hi an apparent last ditch effort to rally simport from Southern Democrats, the Administration has suddenly recommended removal of the authority from the U. S. Commissioner of Education for enforcement of the Civil Rights Act. This could slow down school desegregation -- undoubtedly of greater interest to some Congressmen than the larger and more basic subject of federal control. The Elementary and Secondary School bill will be debated on the floor of the House of Representatives very soon. And the result will be -- very close.
