CODE IS HELD UP
AGAIN AS TRUSTEES

POSTPONE DECISION
Break's Over

Approval for a new student
judicial code was delayed once
again Friday when the Board of
Trustees postponed formal action
on a report from the University
Senate until April 4.
The code which clearly sets
out punishable offenses and the
rights of the student was adopted
by the University Senate Feb. 27
after having been considered at
three Senate meetings.
The special meeting of the full
Board of Trustees had been expected to adopt formally the
Senate's report as part of the
University Governing Regulations, but at the last minute the
report was placed on the agenda
as a "discussion item."

the report and said if adopted
it would give the University a
position of leadership in the area

Mr. Johnson noted that the
code would clarify the whole area
of student affairs regulations at

with it." He approved, however,
the idea of postponing the report
until the next meeting so that
Board members could study it
more closely.

The student judicial code was
the final item of a lengthy meeting in which the Trustees acted
on a wide variety of subjects.
The Board approved a study

the University and the state.

Ford Foundation Is Culling Back Its College Aid

The Ford
Foundation said Saturday it
plans to cut its spending.
Colleges and universities that
have ken getting a substantial
share of the foundation's grants
will be hardest hit by the cuts,
which are designed to bring the
foundation's spending more nearly in line with the income from
its investments.
At the same time, McGcorgc

for their "relatively slow and

their own money because of timid

endowments.

In his first annual report since
he assumed the presidency of the
nation's largest foundation, with
assets of $2.4 billion, Mr. Bundy
gave notice of sweeping changes-igoals and attitudes in foundation grants.
Asserting that the foundation
had been spending an average

that "caution has cost our colleges and universities much more

Mr. Bundy called for a nationwide review and analysis of the
effectiveness with which university trustees invest their institutions endowments.

Noting that higher education
had only four major sources of
future support tuition, federal
funds, private gifts, and improved management of endowment funds Mr. Bundy reserved
his most direct criticism for the
universities' own financial prac-

said.

against "the growing menace"
of cautious men who are unwilling "to annoy" their organizations by proposing change and of

organizations "too easily annoyed."
He sharply criticized the

He also pointed to "a special obligation" to

Politics

Two-Face- d
Secretary of State Thelma Stov-all'- s
recent announcement that she
plans for a wider distribution of
absentee ballot applications to students is an excellent example of
how politicians can completely reverse their stands in order to advance themselves politically.
Mrs.

Stovall, presently

a can-

didate for state treasurer, has asked
the presidents of Kentucky's colleges and universities to appoint
officials on their respective campuses to manage the distribution
of absentee ballot applications to

students.
It was just last fall when Mrs.
Stovall refused to send absentee
voter applications directly to the
campuses, because she said state
law authorizes her to supply the
application forms only to county
court clerks. The law has not

changed since last fall's election,

but Mrs. Stovall's interpretation
of it apparently has.
We cannot help but recall that
last fall Mrs. Stovall was a leading
opponent to the state's proposed
new constitution, and most students were expected to vote in favor
of the revised charter. Now,
however, she is a condidate for a
political office, and she has decided to make it easier for students
to vote.
Regardless of these facts, however, we are not opposed to Mrs.
Stovall's change in attitude. We
believe every possible measure
should be taken to make it easy
for students, or anyone else, to
enjoy their constitutional right to
vote. Mrs. Stovall's stand last fall
was unfortunate, and we are glad
she has changed her mind, regardless of her own political motives.

Vallebona Challenges Breives To Debate On Nazism

Well, wasn't Mr. Brevves from
Berlin annoyed at my soapbox:
"Germany: Are the Nazis Back?"
It was a shame that being a
graduate student, Mr. Brewes was
not sophisticated enough to dis- cuss issues; rather he devoted his
letter (March 1) to a personal attack.
In a way it pleased me because it
the point I made in
my Soapbox; Germans have been
impotent when they had to solve
issues at the fundamental level;
rather, they direct their attack on
scapegoats. I would like this letter
to be constructive and with this
in mind I would like to clarify
certain points Mr. Brewes seems to
have misunderstood.
1. Mr. Brewes said that I distorted the facts. However the facts
I presented in my soapbox were
taken from distinguished magazines
and newspapers such as the New
York Times, New York Herald-TribunTime magazine, Newsweek
and others, and one would seriously
doubt that distinguished news instruments as the ones just named
would distort facts.

show that the party has 22;000
members and that it is increasing
by 1000 per month (Newsweek, Dec.

Brewes that the NPD had 7.4 per- cent of the votes in Bavaria prov- inCe in last elections; in 1928 in
this same province Hitler had 6.1
percent of the votes; five years
later he was named Chancellor of

realization that I, and other
"loyal" Americans, have nutured
with our support an ignominious
national government. It grates my
conscience sorely to discover that
the Johnson Administration is so
unfeeling and unethical as to refuse
shipment of needed medical supplies to the North Vietnamese,
just because " 'it regards them as
enemies.' " How asinine! (The Administration, of course!)
As you astutely wondered, the
real reason the government won't
allow shipment of these supplies
is its fear of this particular humanitarian aid to the needy or
perhaps the resulting adverse publicity. (This would presumably re

If you asked a rational individual, I bet he'd come up with
some pedantic reasoning for the
government's refusal, perhaps:
"Treason against the United
States shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving
them Aid and Comfort." (Article
III, Section 3, Constitution of the
United States of America).
Acceptance of aid by the enemy, raised within the States and
unofficially approved by the U.S.
government (if they don't attempt
to stop the supplies) would show
of comgovernment
mitment in Vietnam.
That would really demonstrate
that "this war is not like the terrible World Wars in which our
citizenry and our ships were attacked by a vicious and virtually
inhuman enemy." (Where did the
enemy of the '40's get these lovely
epithets from an effective propaganda campaign or from the security in the realization that the
past is not connected with the
present, nor with you, dear editor? Is the enemy of today docile
and humanitarian?)
I'd like to think you mean
the wars are different in that we
aren't being forced to retaliate
in full military might after being,
attacked. We're on an offensive
defense line to prevent another
World War. "
