Halletts ville New Era Herald argues the Supreme Court's 5-4 ruling upholding New York State's law barring Communist teachers shows a drift from protecting national interests. The paper calls for constitutional amendment requiring judges to be professional lawyers at appointment and ABA approval.

Texas teacher pay bill moves through legislature
The $170000000 two year raise plan for Texas teachers faces legislative hurdles. Senate Education Committee backed Aikin Jr.'s bill, while Texas State Teachers Association cites a 1200 teacher shortage and 5000 more would leave the profession without capable replacements. The measure, plus additional state spending, could rival Gov. Connally's tax program.
