Few will deny that the Peace Corps has been one of the most successful and popular of the New Frontier programs initiated during the Kennedy Administration. But the Peace Corps now faces many new and delicate prob ems, most of them a direct result of the war in Vietnam. The tactfulness with which these problems are solved within the next few years may well determine whether or not the Peace Corps can survive on a large scale, and if it can, how effec tive it will be in accomplishing its original mission. Peace Corps officials who in the past have had little trouble convincing young people to give up two years of their life to work in an underdeveloped country now find themselves on the defensive for the first time. The major problem is the Peace Corps' close association with the federal government at a time when the government is unpopular among young people. Peace Corps officials, includDirector Jack Agency ing Vaughn, are not ready to admit the Corps has problems. But some g other government officials have confirmed privately high-rankin- that the Corps may be in trouble. Recruiting figures alone indicate the Peace Corps has less appeal now than it had a year ago. In November, 19G6, the Peace Corps received 7,097 applications from college seniors. Last November, applications were filed by only 3,768 seniors, nearly a 50 percent reduction. Overall, the Peace Corps received 9,661 applications last November, compared with 12,411 in November of 1966. Recruiting also was down in December, with the Corps receiving 7,095 applications last December, compared with 8,288 in 1966. Peace Corps officials, however, claim these figures should not be interpreted as meaning Do Volunteers Really Have It? (CPS) -President Hubert Humphrey visited Africa early this year, a group of Peace Corps volunteers in Liberia wanted to meet with him to discuss their sentiments against the war in Vietnam. The volunteers were told by a top Peace Corps official in Liberia that any comment by them either public or private on Vietnam in the presence of the Vice President would result in their immediate termination from the Peace Corps. Their story, made public by a letter to the editor in a recent issue of the "New Republic," is one example of why many students today are hesitating to become part of a program which for the past seven years has drawn strong support from the younger WASHINGTON Vice a major free speech volving the Corps last The incident occurred group of volunteers in issue in- summer. when a Santiago circulated the "Negotiations Now" petition protesting the U.S. position in Vietnam. Corps officials told the volunteers to withdraw their names or submit jtheir resignations. Volunteers also were told they could not identify themselves as working for the Peace Corps when writing for the American press. One volunteer in Chile, Bruce Murray, wrote a letter to Peace Corps Director Jack Vaughn protesting the action. Murray's letter was subsequently printed in the, Chilean press, after which he was called to Washington and notified he was being dismissed as a volunteer. Corps officials said generation. Murray defied a standard policy Within the last nine months, that volunteers not become inthe Peace Corps has become a volved in "local political issues." topic of controversy on many college campuses.

"We only ask that volun- like the Peace Corps? Of these possible probleiiK, the "free speech controversy" has attracted the most attention and seems to be the most pressing. The second is primarily a personal question which the individual must answer for himself. And the last two have been widely discussed, but there is no evidence to indicate that either is valid. The fact that an increasing number of young people think they would lose their freedom ( speech by joining the Peace Corps is supplied by a recent Umis Harris survey.

The survey was taken after nre "In-las- t 1967, however, we visited 25 per- cent fewer schools in the fall. During the current academic year, we will have our major recruiting effort in the spring." Since most Peace Corps vol- unteers come directly from the campus, the Corps' recruiting figures are based on the academic year. So far, applications this year are running about 4,000 behind last year. "But with our major recruiting drive still ahead of us, we expect to at least equal last year's figures," Mr. Vaughn says. Free Speech In The Corps When the Corps is losing its appeal to students. "The decrease is attributable to the style of recruiting in the fall of 1906 compared to that in 1967," one official 1966, we put explained. on a major recruitingdrive which hit its peak in November. In teers consider in advance how their actions or statements will affect their host country and their own effectiveness in working with all of the local people." Mr. Vaughn quickly discounts any suggestion that the CIA could easily infiltrate the Peace Corps, since both agencies are under the same government. "That suggestion is completely ridiculous," he said. "The Peace Corps has always taken pride in its independence from the other agencies of the government." Despite the new questions which students must consider before joining the Peace Corps,' Mr. Vaughn says the Corps central mission has not changed since it was formed in 1961. "We are involved in a ment move- that we feel is moving toward peace. This has not changed because of the war. We are striving for peace, and all' we can do is offer young people the opportunity to serve in this capacity as individuals," he said. Despite efforts by Corps officials to convince the public that it is not losing its appeal, officials admit the Corps is more controversial on the campus today than at any other time in its history. The main reason for this, Mr. Vaughn said, "is a feeling that we are an official part of the Establishment." One govern- ment official explained, "Before the United States became deeply involved in Vietnam, young people did not mind so much being associated with the government, but now they do." However, Mr. Vaughn says the expanding group of student radicals who want to be completely disassociated with the government is not affecting the Peace Corps. "We don't in any sense, or never have, tried to tailor a message for th activist. Our message is more to the concerned, and the concerned can be of almost any political stripe," he said in an interview. But Mr. Vaughn admits Peace Corps recruiting on campuses is more difficult now than it was several years ago. "Most campuses are boiling," he said. "There is more noise and more turmoil, which makes it much harder for us to get our message through." A few years ago it was easy for a recruiter to talk with students, he said. "But now there's a lot of rivalry, and it's harder to get that conversation for a half hour." Although the Peace Corps is associated with the "Establishment," there have been no problems between recruiters and student radicals, Mr. Vaughn said. "Words have been exchanged on occasion, but nothing to consider a confrontation." The major problem for Corps recruiters comes when a college or university gives them space in their placement office rather than in a prominent open area on campus, such as in the Student Union Building, Mr. Vaughn said. "We don't seek respectability. All we seek is a chance to talk, and if nobody knows where you are, your exposure is so limited you don't have a chance to talk." When Mr. Vaughn talks about the present status of the Peace. Corps, he emphasizes that the' total number of volunteers overseas is now about 15,000 higher than ever before, and the Corps is expanding at the rate of about eight new countries a year. Whether this expansion can continue or not, however, is uncertain, "inthe past," Mr. Vaughn admits, "the only thing holding us back has been the lack of enough candidates to serve as volunteers." Since the Corps now must appeal to young people who as a group are becoming more and more this problem may be just beginning. torn wm mi AOL LUNCHEON FEATURES We are featuring during the month of February various combinations of sandwiches and soups.

Constructive methods to dramatize the conditions of the nation's poor have been both haphazard and futile in recent months. Additional funds for Johnson's War on Poverty have been discouraged by extravagant military costs, as the death of the rat control bill illustrates so well. Representatives of the poor are virtually landlubbers in a sea of overwhelming vetos. However some landlubbers are setting out to sea and heading straight for the tempest. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., who has few illusions about persuading Congress to action, hopes to appeal to the conscience of the nation this spring. His appeal will be in the form of a mass march on Washington, D.C. where he will lead his army of the nation's poor. Once in Washington this army will build a settlement of shanties among the cherry blossoms to point up the plight of the needy. These shanties will "house the troops of hopeless and embittered poor." "We'll build our shanties literally broken-dowshanties to dramay tize the conditions of the way millions of people have to live," Dr. King said.
