A SECOND LOOK at the Cul¬
tural Exchanges Agreement sign¬
ed last year between the United
States and the Soviet Union raises
a serious question as to whether
this country has thereby fallen
into a Russian propaganda trap.

'
countries can be productive of
international understanding and
good will and should be en¬
couraged. Such desired results
cannot be achieved, however,
when one of the participating na¬
tions approaches such exchanges
with a view toward obtaining par¬
tisan advantage from them and,
from the record of the past, there
is no reason to believe that the
Russians look upon them as any¬
thing but a one-way street.
L
AT ITS RECENT winter meet¬
ing the American Bar Associa¬
tion, in adopting the report of its
Special Committee on Communist
Tactics, Strategy and Objectives,
called attention to the fact that
Soviet Premier Khrushchev in
1956 listed cultural and business
exchanges as “one of those de¬
velopments which will bring about
the growing weakness of the
United States and advance world
socialism.” The lawyers concluded
from the evidence presented that
“the primary activity of every one
of Moscow’s cultural delegates
while in this country is to pro
wiote the Communist world revo¬
lution.”
Therefore, it is quite obvious
that the Russians see the Cultural
’■»changes Agreement as an op

portunity to send their espionage
agents into this country posing as
artists, dancers, scientists, farm¬
ers and the like and to open the
doors of America’s theaters and
homes to Communist propaganda
movies and television and radio
programs. Furthermore, they ex¬
pect to reap a bountiful harvest
of publicity through the United
Sttites’ free news media while, at
the same time, using their tight
control over all avenues of infor¬
mation within the Soviet Union
to suppress or distort news about
the American counterparts in the
program of exchanges.
A case in point is the manner
in which Radio Moscow and the
official Soviet newspaper, Pravda,
already are denouncing and be¬
littling the American Cultural Ex¬
hibit to be shown this summer in
Moscow’s Sokolniki Park at a cost
of $3,600,000 to the American tax¬
payers.
CULTURE TO US in the United
States means “enlightenment and
refinement,” but to the dictators
of the Kremlin it means only “pro¬
duction and propaganda.” Thus,
from the standpoint of definition
alone, it is impossible to have a
meaningful agreement on cultural
exchanges with the Soviet Union.
The term of the present two
year agreement expires next Jan¬
uary and it is to be hoped that
the President, after serious second
thought, will heed the admonition
of Robert B. Pitkin, Managing
Editor of the American Legion
Magazine, that “no true exchange
of culture is possible in the rela¬
tions of the Soviet Union with any
country” and refuse to jeopardize
further the security of this coun¬
try through any extension of this
“Trojan-Horse” Agreement

! Flint Electric* Co
Op Announce*; A
iNew Farm Rate*
Said to be a result, of an ex¬
tensive snudy of electric rates
which has been conducted over the
past year, Flint Electric Member¬
ship Corporation h;. ( s just announ¬
ced a revision in electric rates for
farm and rural-home Member
consumers which will mean a sav¬
ing for them during the balance
of this year of over $50,000.
“With this new rate schedule,
Flint Electric is actually putting
over $50,000 in the pockets of the
people of our area through the
savings,” said Floyd H. Tabor of
Perry, president of the coopera¬
tive, “and we are happy to be able
to make this rate change which
is possible because of sound ope¬
rating principles and long-range
planning, the cooperation of all
member-consumers, and the gene¬
ral efficiency of the organization.
Electricity is being used to do
more and more jobs on the farm
and in the rural home each year,
and this rate reduction is a good
reminder to all Flint members that
the electricity they buy is their
best value today.”
Under the old rate structure,
the monthly minimum bill, cover¬
ing 12 kilowatt hours per month,
was one dollar. The study reveal¬
ed that service in this brackett
was furnished at a loss to the co¬
operative, and the new rate sche
dule is designed to insure that all
users are paying their full share
of costs. The ne<w minimum it.
$1.50 per month, but it was pmnt
ed out that this new minimum
now cove 25 kilowatt hours, a
little mv. han twice as much
power a* .at old minimum provid
ed.
“The rate study which was made
is in iine v, h Flint policy of con¬
tinuing study t>o achieve the coop¬
erative's goal of ‘the best possible
service at the lowest possible cost’,

By Dr. Edward <?. Eoebcr
Just exactly what is vocation¬
al guidance? Don’t be embar¬
rassed if you don’t know thfc
answer. The truth of the matter
is that probably the majority of
the parents of school age chil¬
dren in this country are fin, the
same boat as you. thA. o4er
'Frankly, insofar as
whelming majority of American
.educators is concerned, this is
not a good situation. You need
to know about vocational guid¬
ance and ,what it means because
you* owe it to your children to
know.
is Basically, this; vocational service guidance provid¬
, simply a
ed through our school systems
to assist pupils in making intel¬
ligent decisions regarding sub¬
jects which will prepare them
for their life’s work. You,’ye
heard' the saying about a “square
peg in a round hole” and it is
unfortunately true that, too
many human beings find them
selves in this predicament when
it is too late to do anything
about it, or when it means giv¬
ing up seniority or financial
security in order to shift oc¬
cupations.
As a result, it is undoubtedly
true that fine talents are wasted
because young men and young
women aren’t doing that for
which they are best fitted or in
which they are most interested.
At the risk of oversimplifying
tie problem, Jet’s say that the
primary function of vocational
guidance is to prevent any
square pegs from getting in
rr :nd holes.
When grammar school, young¬
sters are asked, “What do you
want to be when you grow up?"
The most popular answers are
always locomotive engineers,
policemen, nurses, movie stars,
doctors, forest rangers, firemen,
and maybe bus drivers; but
these answers are dream an
swers. In just a few short years
some of, these same youngsters
may be thinking seriously about
engineering, education, journal¬
ism, banking, law, medicine, or
business administration.
In every high school of Amer¬
ica there are young men and
young women who are per¬
plexed about their future, their
educational and vocational plans.

We owe it to our youth and
to our country to do everything
we can to see that the native
talents of American youth are
steered .in the direction which
will best serve mankind as well

future. He wants a chance to de¬
velop some special skills and to
get those things which we in
America take for- granted.
It all sounds quite simple to
those of us who have already An

He would also like to know

scholarship will cot cover .all

tions may influence someone to
enter an occupation for which
he is not suited and where he
is not as productive as he
might be.
Somehow the Bills and Marys
must work their ways through
the maze of opportunities, blind
alleys, and obstacles. They can
be helped in an organized man¬
ner. This is vocational guidance.
An organized approach to vo
cational guidance is already pres¬
ent in some schools throughout
America. In these schools Bill
and Mary arc helped to find va
nous kinds of information about
themselves and possible educa¬
tional and occupational opportu¬
nities. Some of the information
is given to them individually,
as they need it, or in groups,
such as regular classes, home¬
rooms, or occupational planning
courses. In addition, counselors,
and teachers with special skills,
counsel and talk over with the
students how they can best use
their talents in relation to dif¬
ferent kinds of training and
occupational requirements. Be
cause young people grow and
change with new experiences,
they find these services avail¬
able to them all through high
school. Many who see the value
in helping young men and wom¬
en “get a good start” in the
world of work hope that every
young American can have an
opportunity to receive adequate
vocational guidance in his high
school, regardless of its size or
location.
