Operation Babylift: Whose best interest?

Since the airlift of children from
South Vietnam was begun last week.
newspapers have been filled with
photographs of the children in their

smiling adoptive parents

There has been much publicity about
the arrival of the nearly 2.000 children
in the US. but many questions con-
cerning the motives of the evacuation

remain unanswered.

Some have argued that the US. has
no right to move children en masse
and also that the airlift was done too
hastily and without enough thought or

prepa ra ti on ,

Vietnamese?

The questions that face us are: ls
foreign adoption the best alternative
for the children'.’ Was the airlift begun
only in the children's best interest. or
did it involve political motives‘.’ Are
w e adopting them out of guilt or moral
obligations we feel for the South

to appropriate more funds to the

objectives of the airlift Some people
rightly think that by bringing the the 1

children to the l' S, we are robbing the

FBl keeps nation safe from Socialist Workers

By NICHOLAS VON HOFFMAN

WASHINGTON — “Set forth
below is a proposed anonymous
letter... errors in spelling are
intentional.” says the FBI mem-
orandum from its San Francisco
office to “the seat of govern-
ment.” as the Bureau rather
grandly refers to this collection of
marble filing cases on the Poto~
mac.

In due course. the seat of
government countermemoed
that. "Authority is granted for

you to prepare and then anony-
mously mail the letter... to Sam
Jordan who is running for the
office of Mayor of San Francisco
as an independent Negro can-
didate... The letter should be
handwritten on a cheap grade of
tablet paper and contain the
spelling errors set out in the
sample... The letter has definite
disruptive potential..."

tive incunabula have been cough

Open-minded teachers win

Last semester approximately
300 students and teachers in
Freshmen Composition voluntar-
ily participated in a research
study I conducted. They gave
their time to completing a read-
ing experience report and a
written response to literature
essay test at the end of the
semester. I would like to take this
opportunity to thank those stu-
dents and teachers and to report.
for their interest. the results.

The study. which was conduc-
ted in a confidential manner.
sought to discover if teachers‘
intellectual attitudes of open-
mindedness are related to their
students abilities to interpret
literature. The data indicates
that teachers whose attitude is
such as would allow alternative
and divergent thinking in the
classroom do indeed have. by the
end of the semester. students who
are more open-minded and crea
five in their responses to literar
titre.

The question can he raised as to
the appropriate teaching defense
against student stereotyping of
interpretations and standardiza
tion of responses through expo
sure to the ambiguity and com
plexity of every abstract word
and to the kinds of meaning
language handles This may be
partially accomplished by com»
paring a given opinion as it is
applied by many minds to many
different matters and by ohm-m
mg its ambiguities and the varia
tions in its verbal formula The
power and delight of intelligent

reading does not come from
supplying a number of frame-
works of doctrine for understand
ing but from higher levels of
questioning and discussion. anal-
ysis and synthesis. Such intellec-
tual challenge depends on the
teacher's ability to establish an
attentive and open classroom
climate with a high level of
encouragement of widespread
participation.

The study emphasizes the ”11'
portance of mentally challenging
student thought. demanding
more support for contention.
greater divergence in analysis.
more contrast. more inference.
deeper response.

Again. to those who were so
helpful in the collection of this
data. my sincere thanks,
