June 22, 1954 T H E SU M M ER TEXAN Page 4 Indiana U niversity cancelled a speak­ ing engagem ent this week of actress Uta Hagen because of “unfavorable and dis­ turbing political publicity.” Miss Hagen w as scheduled to speak to a group of 1,200 high school thespians at a conference at the University. However, because of an article in the Bloom ington Herald-Tele- phone citing fifteen charges against her of “Communist leanings'’ the speech was called off. The newspaper story w as taken from an American Legion m agazine article list­ ing fifteen citations from the House Un- American A ctivities Com mittee records. Miss Hagen, however, had never been ask­ ed to testify before the H ouse com m ittee; her side of the story rem ains untold. One of the citations concerned greetings that Miss Hagen had sent to the Moscow Thea­ ter in 1948. All of the charges were un­ substantiated; all lacked the actress per­ sonal answer, either acknow ledgem ent or denial. The proposed speech had nothing to do with politics. Miss H agen w as scheduled to address prospective actors and actresses about her work on the stage. Certainly there would have been no chance for her to insert Communist doctrine in a discus­ sion of life behind the proscenium arch if she had wanted to do so. Protecting im­ pressionable young ears from hearing a discussion of curtain calls and costum e changes by a person suspected (m erely suspected, w ithout proof of any sort) of Communist sym pathies leans toward the ludicrous. A university’s forbidding such a speech to guard against possible un­ favorable publicity is disgusting. P<’cace or tppeasem en t? ’ Prem ier M endes-France can look for­ ward to one of three things: a miracle, a satisfactory peace in one month as he promised; a proposed peaceful settlem ent that will call for too much appeasement Of the Reds; or a new job on July 21. The new French premier’s promise to bring about a settlem ent by July 20 caused alarm to many people who fear too many concessions to the Communist aggressors in exchange for a peace settlem ent. Un­ der-secretary Walter Bedell Smith, aftei talking with Mendes-France, had ‘‘nothing to say” to the press about the possibilities of such negotiations. There is, of course, the possibility that the com m issioning of M endes-France to form a new French governm ent is a move on President Coty’s part to get the man out of the way before the real fight over the new governm ent composition begins. At any rate the United States has stated an adopted policy of a “friendly and in­ terested nation, neither a belligerent or a principal in the negotiations.” This pol­ icy, the State D epartm ent says, will be followed from now on; the United States will continue in “a sincere, patient effort to negotiate,” the under-secretary added. There is hope that the trem endous im­ portance of US principles and opinions will override tem ptations to end open hos­ tilities by taking the easiest route— eas­ ing up on the peace term s and succum b­ ing to Red demands. Our stand has been made clear. And France is in no position to disregard it. Public Warned to Correct Lack In Educational Effort | By HELEN BETTY “ The effort we are m aking to educate ourselves as a people is not nearly equal to our re­ sponsibilities,” states W alter Lippm ann, noted political a n a ­ recent A tlantic lysis!, m agazine article. “ Our ed u ca­ tional effort h as not been raised to the p lateau of the age we live in.” in a the The cu rren t shortage in edu­ cation has becom e so serious a problem th a t if not corrected, m any believe it will have an ef­ length of VIS fect upon leadership in world affairs. We have acquired responsibilities for which we are not preparing. We a re not educating leaders to the task of caring for our na- tion. . . . And yet, the A m erican public has been deluged with state­ m ents concerning the shortage. The NEA h as reported that “ the supply of new high school teach­ e rs has been steadily dropping a t an alarm ing ra te ; since 4950, the num ber has been cut 41.7 p er cent. In addition, US ele- centary schools need 85,000 new te a c h e rs.” T here are 30 million students in our elem entary and high schools, which is, a t least, IO million too m any for our class­ room s and teachers. This forces thousands of children to go to school in double shifts, to study in m ake-shift classroom s, in hallw ays, in churches. In five states, one out of every five o r six young adults has less five years of schooling. than for 1943 available Statistics show th a t out of every 1,000 pu­ pils in the fifth grade in that year, only 505 finished high school. Of the 495 rem aining, 153 did not finish grade school, and 134 did not f in is h junior hi£h- , th a t Concerning school building, the US Office of E ducation has announced the US needs 345,000 classroom s and over IO billion dollars just to put our schools in acceptable condition.
