Harrold Carswell to the high court. AFL -CIO President George Meany, speaking out on the eve of today's opening of Senate hearings on the nomination, said Carswell "does not meet the high standards requisite for Supreme Court membership." Sen. William Proxmire also fired a broadside at the 50 -year- old judge in a speech prepared for delivery to the Senate today. The Wisconsin Democrat said Carswell was a judge whose credentials "are distinguished by their mediocrity." Civil rights groups already were on record with strong op- position to Carswell. Tl&y fought his nomination when he was elevated to the 5th U.S. Court of Appeals last June. Critics of the nomination were armed with the disclosures that Carswell gave a political speech in 1948 pledging life -long devo- tion to white supremacy and that while U.S. at* , )rney for THE DAILY EAGLE Vol. 94 — No. 168 News Briefs Yarborou0h AUSTIN (AP) — Sen.

Walsh, chairman of the bar's Commit- tee on the Federal Judiciary, said its member were unani- mous in the opinion the nominee is qualified to serve on the court. Carswell, who made tradition- al get- acquainted calls Monday on members of the Senate Judi- ciary Committee, was norninat- ed by the President Jan. 19 to fill the vacancy created by 'the resignation under fire of Justice Abe Fortas last May. Nixon had selected Clement F. Haynsworth Jr. for the high court, but the Senate in Novem- ber voted 55 to 45 against confir- mation of the South Carolinian who is chief judge of the 4th U.S. Court of Appeals. Although labor leaders were among the chief witnesses against Haynsworth, Chairman James 0. Eastland, D -Miss , of the Judiciary Committee, told a reporter he knew of no request from the AFL -CIO to testify against Carswell. Some Democrats on the com- mittee indicated concern lest action be taken on Carswell be- fore there was time for a full check into his background and judicial philosophy. Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, D- Mass., a Judiciary Committee member, told a reporter he knows of no desire to delay ac- tion on the nomination unduly, but it was difficult to say how long the hearings might last.

At the time in 1948 Carswell, a candidate for the Georgia legis- lature, said he yielded to no man "in the firm, vigorous be- lief in principles of white su- premacy and I shall always be so governed.” When the speech was brought to light last week from old newspaper files, Carswell repu- diated it. He said he now finds the words and thoughts "obnox- ious and abhorrent." Senate leaders of both parties have said they doubt the speech will have any effect on Cars - well's chances for confirmation by the Senate, but Proxmire re- ferred to it as "a blatantly rac- ist speech."

In the city manager's report, Ran Boswell told the council that the contractor's esthlate f o r last November and December was $31,967.26 and $39,083.30, respectively. The council then discussed payment of the estimates. "I approve the payment of the $31,967.26 for November, but I don't know about tine $39,082.30 for December," Councilman James Dozier said. Boswell told Dozier the council did not have the power to differ from the contractor's estimates, just to approve the payment of the estimate. "We have to pay the estimates as soon as we receive them," Boswell said. "Oh, what you are saying then is that you want us w approve what you have already paid the contractor to keep you out of the soup," Dozier said. Boswell said the total contract called for a $331,171 ex- penditure, $283,979.25 of which has already been paid to the contractor. Dozier asked Boswell when the deadline was for con- struction on the new building. Boswell said he did not have the information on hand but that he could get it. Councilman C. S. Ransdell said he thought the deadline was last Nov. 24. "Isn't there a $100 a day penalty clause in the contract for time missed past the deadline ?" Dozier asked. Fe also asked if an extension had been granted on the contract deadline. Anderson said that the council had not extended the contract. "The architect has granted two extensions already without consulting the council; which according to the contract, is i.s privilege," Anderson said. He added that a total of 20 days had been extended to the deadline. "I think the citizens and the council would like to know why it has taken so damned long getting built," Dozier said. Boswell said the architect has given no explanation for the delay. The architect is C. R. Watson of Watson & Co., Bryan. The council agreed to hold a meeting with the architect and the contractor before the next council meeting to find the cause of the delay. Boswell told the council the total bill for the water line to the T e x a s International Speedway was $10,013. The council had previously agreed to bear part of the cost of the water line to the raceway. Council members agreed to hold payment of the bill until they were assured the con- tractor who installed the water line had been paid by TTS.

The council was slated to hear Logan Wilson, Lone Star district manager, but requested that ae postpone his talk until a later date. The postponement is to enable council members to study the overall costs of the proposed hike. "We do think the proposed increase is excessively large from our standpoint.

(AP Wirephoto) V WASHINGTON (AP) — With a dramatic and unprecedented televised veto, President Nixon has rejected a budget- boosting 19.7 billion education - health money bill, warning "we can spe :ld our selves poor." Nixon told the national radio - TV audience Monday night the appropriation though politically popular was "the wrong amount for, the wrong purpose and at the wrong time." "The issue," the President said during the 11- minute speech, "is not whether some of us are for education and health and others against it ... The question is: How much can the federal government afford to spend on these programs this year ?" Then, after listing the reasons he said counted against the ap- propriation that exceeded his recommendations by 2.26 bit= lion, Nixon, with the TV camera focused tightly on his right hand, signed the veto message —the first of his administration. Never before had a President wielded his veto pen before tele- vision cameras. And it seemed unlikely any bill ever had made so swift a round trip between Capitol Hill and the White House —less than a day. In reaching past the Demo- cratic- controlled Congress to argue his case before the na- tion, Nixon assured a White House - Capitol Hill showdown. The confrontation has been building for more than a month, since Congress first defied Nix- on protests and fashioned the 19.7 billion appropriation for the departments of Health, Edu- cation and Welfare, Labor and the Office of Economic Oppor- tunity. Final congressional action came Monday in the House, which settled a side issue by voice vote and rushed the con- tested appropriation on to the President., Nixon's retort was swift. As he has from the beginning, Nixon called the appropriation inflationary. And as they have from the beginning, Democrats insisted it is not. Former Vice President Hu- bert H. Humphrey restated a Democratic contention that Con- gress actually cut the Nixon budget by 5 billion even count- ing the increased health and ed- ucation spending. Humphrey said the appropriation "is clear- ly not inflationary," and urged Congress to override the veto. It will take a two - thirds vote in both the House and Senate to override Nixon. The first try will be Wednesday in the House, which originated the bill. The administration needs 145 House votes to sustain the veto. House Republican Leader Ger- ald R. Ford of Michigan said the American people want it that way. He said Nixon had presented them a convincing case. Ronald L. Ziegler, the White House press secretary, said the administration is confident the House will not override the President. Scamardo Jury Pick Continues EDINBURG, Tex. (AP) — Jury selection continued today for the trial of a prominent Cen- tral Texas man accused of bein; an accomplice in the shouting death of his longtime friend and one -time business partner. Peter Thomas Scamardo, 32, of Hearne, is accused of paying a Houston man $2,000 to kill Sam Degelia Jr., a Hearne grain buyer found shot to death in the Lower Rio Grande Valley in 1968. The case is being heard by Dist. Judge J. R. Alamia in 92nd District Court. Two Houston men, Charles V. Harrelson and Jerry 0. Watkins, are charged with murder with malice in the case and are to be tried later. Scamardo is accused of offer- ing Harrelson $2,000 on June 13, 1968, to kill Degelia. Although Harrelson is not on trial in this case, his lawyer, Percy Foreman of Houston, handled the questioning of sev- en prospective Jurors Monday. Scamardo's lawyer, Thomas G. Sharpe Jr., of Brownsville, consulted with the famed Hous- ton lawyer, but did not take part in the actual questioning. Dist. Atty. Oscar McInnis, who has said he will seek the death penalty for Scamardo, surprisin ^'y accepted the first prospective juror questioned Monday. �on t M ai� la -it Parents Are Told By HA °RY YOUNG Eagle Staff Writer Ppre-its were urged rot to manipulate their children, but to be actualizers at the City C o u n c i l Parent - Teachers' Association meeting Monday night — the third meeting in a series of five on children and family life. The Rev. Henry A. Roberts, Jr., assistant pastor of First Presbyterian Church, and Mrs. Alan B. Altar, special education teacher at Crockett Elemen- tary School, addressed a crowd of 32 in the library of Henderson Elementary School. "We are all manipulators," Rev. Roberts said, refering to a b o o k: "Man, The Manipulator," by Everett L. Shostrom. "We all exercise control, " he continued, "thus our infant learns to coo on cue" and "the teenager picks up control produ :aion from his parent and from TV." l,cv. R,, pointed out several means used in exer- cising control as: 1) An active form — con- trolling others by aggressive means. For Example, Mama threatens to tell Daddy if Daughter doesn't behave, and daughter knows that Daddy will popish her. 2) Passive form, where tha battle is won by dependency. 3) Competitive type where a child is taught to walk over anyone to get what he wants. 4) Use of indifference. Mr. Roberts used the example of a mother telling her daughter: "1 don't care what you want Susy, I'm too busy cooking dinner." Rev. Roberts pointed out the See MANIPULATION Page 2 Mothers to Vietnam Page 2 Bryan - College Station, Texas THE DAILY EAGLE Tuesday, January 27, 1970 George Webb of the George Webb Agency de- the Ramada Inn.

The system will use 911 as the emergency -only number. "This makes us the first city in the State of Texas to go to the 911 system, which in five y e a r s will probably be universal," Anderson said. Anderson said the new system, operating through two trunks in the central office of the General Telephone Co. of the Southwest, will cost the city approximately $51 per month. He added that complete in- stallation will take from 18 months to two years. "The installation takes so long because the central office has t be modified; each office has to be engineered for its specific needs." Rill Erwin, General Telephone of the Southwest representative, said. He added that the system involves no charges to the individual citizen. Anderson said the council considered the matter at it; Oct. 27, 1969 meeting, but action was deferred to provide to investigate the system morE thoroughly. "This will be an emergency number only. It can be dialer in the dark and a dispatcher will be on duty 24 hours a day," Anderson said. Anderson pointed out CollegE Station had 11 house burglaries and 34 reports of prowlers Iasi year and that the emergenc) number system could affeel these problems significantly. "With the 911 system the is little delay in reaching the dispatcher and there is littlE difficulty in finding the requirec number," Anderson said. Councilman Dozier raised th( question of why the number, 111 instead of 911 were not used, "For one reason, the number 1 is employed in the Direct Distance and Expanded Direst Distance Dialing systems and also nine is a generally clear number," Erwin said. ICS Council Eyes City Hall Status (Continued From Page 1) After the city engineer's report on the proposed sanitary landfill project, the council' agreed to defer action on the proposal until a later meeting. Lloyd James, city engineer,' recommended the Porterfield site to the council. He said the site is within the Brazos River Watershed and that it was less likely to be polluted than tie other two sites. The council decided to place t h e quit -claim deeds on Holleman Drive on the agenda for the next meeting. Boswell said only four out of seven or eight persons have signed the deeds. Council members approved the application for an Economic Development Administration grant after a required change was made in the growth boundary line. The council changed the line to extend from Rock Prairie Road to Sebasta Road. The EDA grant application is for improvements in water and sewer systems. Tire Clearance Deadline Set For March 31 Anderson agreed to appoint two council members to work with the city manager to study bids on furniture for the new city buildings. Approval was given for in- stallation of burglar alarm systems for financial in- stitutions and others in the new police station. Anderson said the systems would be installed with no cost to the city. The council approved the city engineer's report on the stabilization of Bee Creek. The city engineer received the authority to stabilize a 1,1700 foot portion of the upstream section each snring.

To be an actualizer one must expend a certain amount el freedom and trust, " of placing faith in another person and being able to relate to them," he said.
