Reed's Report Calls For Huge School Aid Hike

Gov. Docking released a report from the Governor's Committee on Education proposing a rise in state aid for basic education from 32 to 50 percent, costing up to 60 million dollars annually. The plan shifts tax loads from property to state sources and aims to reach 50 percent aid within two to three years, with notes on textbooks free to pupils and repeal of the 104 percent budget rule. The governor suspended final judgment and urged consideration within broad state budgeting.

High Court Moves In Low Gear On Draft Questions

The Supreme Court began tackling draft law questions raised by the Vietnam era with a cautious approach. It ruled that divinity students and others exempted by Congress cannot be punished for antiwar views by removing their exemptions. It also held that a draft board cannot test a conscientious objector's shield against induction in court before service. The case signals broader limits on using draft law to penalize antiwar advocacy, with future rulings pending on Faulkner’s reclassification after he protested U.S. policy.
