Parlor Interview Not Satisfying in Koreagate Probe
Leon Jaworski resigns from the House Ethics Committee and criticizes Korea offer for Kim Dong to answer questions only in writing. He says it amounts to a parlor interview and urges investigators to press for live testimony on alleged $100 envelopes given to lawmakers. Rep Flynt insists Kim will provide new factual information and questions must be pursued.

Ships Needed not Promises In Carter Navy Critique
In Norfolk, President Carter pledges strong naval forces but critics say the Navy needs ships, not rhetoric. They cite a 600-ship goal, a current 459 ships, and a five year budget barely maintaining current strength while the Soviet fleet grows faster. The piece argues NATO and global duties require more ships and warns against trimming shipbuilding.

I Favor Private School Tuition Tax Deductions
The writer argues for tax credits or deductions to help private and parochial schools, saying such measures would reduce public school crowding, improve overall education, and preserve private schooling as a counterbalance to political and union control in public education. He notes private schools foster discipline and allow prayer, while public schools face overcrowding and heavy workloads, and advocates scholarships, broader access, and optional private or public options to ensure quality education for all.
