DICKSON The two most discussed routes for the proposed extension of Interstate Route 24 are shown above. Whether the highway will follow either or even be built is still a very open question. Capitol Spotlight running commercials back-to-back. Between programs they give you two or three commercials." Rep. William E.

Brock, Chattanooga Republican, tried to come to the defense of the broadcasters. Brock said he was of the opinion that the FCC order infringed on private property, to which Gore replied: "Bill, I don't know how good a lawyer you are. I don't profess to be a good lawyer, but I do know that the space over which television signals are sent is not private property." Rep. Ross Bass went for a boat ride down the Potomac the other night with Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy.

Bass waa one of 10 House members invited for the social affair which lasted a couple of hours. He said there waa no effort by Kennedy to "aell" any administration programs, such as civil rights. Refreshments were served and the attorney general was "very pleasant and congenial" as host for the affair, Bass said. No one fell into the water, as has happened at the Kennedy swimming pool in nearby Virginia. A group of Southern state highway officials tried unsuccessfully last week to get the Bureau of Public Roads to rescind a new non-discrimination order in employing construction workers.

The executive order makes state officials responsible for the enforcement of non-discrimination clauses In federal-state highway contracts. It was issued June 22 a became effective July 25. Under the order states receiving any type of federal money for road projects constructed by private contractors must "actively" cooperate with the federal government in making sure the contractors practice no discrimination in their hiring. Jarman Idea Rep. Richard Fulton reports he has had a "tremendous response" to his proposal to make the last Monday in May Memorial Day instead of May 30.

The idea originated with Maxey Jarman, chairman of the board of Genesco, Inc. At Jarman's suggestion, Fulton introduced a resolution to make the change. "With Memorial Day willy-nilly on any day of the week employment Is disrupted and the work week split in two," Fulton said. By LOIS LAYCOOK Washington Correspondent WASHINGTON Sen. Albert Gore let a group of Tennessee broadcasters have both barrels the other day when they came here to protest an order by Fed-e a 1 Communications Commission Chairman William Henry.

Henry recently ordered television stations across the country to cut down on the excessive number of commercials some of them are carrying throughout the day. The FCC chairman complained that in some areas television viewers are subjected to heavy overdoses of commercials. Plain Talk The Tennessee broadcasters made an appointment to confer with members of the Tennessee congressional delegation to urge them to use their influence in getting the order rescinded. After hearing the broadcasters' plea, some of the congressmen said they would see what they could do. However, Gore advised the group he could not go along.

In fact, the senator said he was in wholehearted agreement with the FCC chairman. "Only last night," he told the broadcasters, "I tuned in on a Washington station to get the 11 o'clock news. During the course of 15 minutes I had to look at and listen to six or seven commercials to get only 2 or 3 minutes news. "Some television stations are Maxey Jarman New Memorial Day Til State Fighting By BILL KOVACH PROBABLY the best thinjr about proposed Interstate Route 24 is that the entire system wasn't planned the same way this one is being handled. Interstate mileage is being laid slowly enough the way it is, but if the U.S.

Bureau of Public Roads had allowed the states to cat fight over the system there wouldn't be a svstem. Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois and Missouri have been trying to decide where to put the 1-24 extension from Nashville to St. Louis since 1957. With the road pinned down at each end as it is, it would seem that there weren't enough alternatives to keep four states at loggerheads for six years. Interstate highway, though, has the advantage of being built with federal funds to the tune of 90 per cent of the cost.

This makes each foot of the roadway as precious as gold to each state involved. More Mileage The amazing thing is the wonderful way each of the Politics 'Giant Fit Kef By JOE HATCHER TENNESSEE and the United States of America has lost one of the great statesmen of the era, if not of all time, in the unexpected death of Sen. Estes Kefauver. Above all things, this East Tennessee mountain boy who worked his way through col- 1 owr'rJ Senator Kefauver loved people lege and worked his way to the U.S. Senate, was above all things the champion of the LITTLE MAN.

He was the champion of the mail farmer, the small businessman, the working man, organized labor's rank and file, and generally the "have nots" as opposed to the "haves." From his humble beginnincs at the foot of the Great Smokies. Estes Kefauver rose to such eminence that he was twice a contender for the nomination for President, and once was the nominee for vice president over now President John F. Kennedy. People's Choice There is not a doubt that he was the "people's choice" for the presidential nomination in 1932. The politicians denied him the nomination, or he might have been President.

We write these things because we knew him better, politically, perhaps than most people. We campaigned with him from New Hampshire to California and from Florida to Minnesota in 1952 and he won all these primaries. We were with him at times in at least two races for the U.S. Senate, and in all these we have seen the tall impressive handshaker at work and at his pleasure in meeting people and knowing people. He was one of the most dedicated men to his cause that we have ever seen.

His untiring battle against organized crime, his fight against the big monopolies in favor of the small businessman, his never-ending fight for TVA, his vote for the under-dog against popular opinion at times it all added up to a dedicated, and certainly to a GREAT senator. He was controversial. No great man can be otherwise in politics. But his courage was unquestioned. He never wavered in his position be It in Education Like To By EUGENE DIETZ Education News Editor AN ENDLESS search is underway here and in other sectors of the land for a most elusive type of person the trained elementary school teacher.

It Is a journey familiar to every teacher recruiter who has walked across college campuses in Nashville and elsewhere hunting for qualified persons to fill teaching johs. The demand always exceeds the supply. For some reason, too few college students prepare themselves for elementary teaching posts. Miss Ruth McDonald, primary (grades 1-3) supervisor for the Davidson County school system, reports the shortage is especially acute in the first three grades. Not Alone "We are not alone." said Miss McDonald in stressing the national scope of the problem.

"There is a perpetual shortage of elementarv teachers. We still need some, for example, with the new school year about ready to begin." 1 1 1 the Deep South or the Far West or in New England. He worked at his job as senator, and at being elected just as he worked to play a lowly scrub role on the football field at the University of Tennessee, and as he waited on tables to CO to Yale law school; and as he worked endless hours in the crime investigation, and on stopping identical bidding on all items the government tried to purchase. No delegation evpr went to Washington for help that Ke fauver wasn't available, without question as for whom they voted. We have never seen an individual in high places to whom money meant less.

He rarely had so much as a dollar in his pocket, as we knew him, unless a campaign contributor had just given it to him. All too often he stopped to buy a newspaper and then didn't have the money to pay for it. It's doubtful if he ever had taxi fare in Washington when he was in a hurry to get somewhere. There was the time in Kansas City that he didn't have that first dollar to pay his way out of a hotel. Friends had to come to his rescue and guarantee the hill.

He Remembered He had a prodigious memory for faces and to some extent for names as well. He could step from a plane in any state in the nation and start calling names of his well-wishers. At times he gave the impression of being off on Cloud 9 when spoken to but could quickly shift from the problem ha pondered to any question asked him. He was a poor reader of speeches, and sometimes seemed to speak haltingly. But we watched in amazement as he challenged then-Attorney-General Pat Brown of California to debate, and proceded to give Brown probably the worst time of his life.

He beat Brown by more than a million votes for control of the California delegation. He challenged then- Gov. Fuller Warren of Florida, a spell-binder of the old school, to debates all over Florida in 1952. including the Capitol steps. Warren never met him.

We were with him when he flew and trudged through a blizzard in Nebraska in his primary campaign against Sen. Robert Kerr. Frank Morrison was his campaign manager there. Morrison is now the Democratic governor of the traditionally Republican state. Helped Others In those 1952 and 1956 campaign, Estes Kefauver campaigned for local candidates more than for Estes Kefauver.

His support has helped elect United States senators in Washington, in Colorado, in California, in Wyoming, Minnesota, Wisconsin and other states. These friends stood him in good stead in the Senate through his years, and in his own campaigns. His is a record of party loyalties generally, but always a record for the under-dog, the minority groups and what is commonly called the "common man." The shoes he leaves in Tennessee are indeed giant size and there's no giant in the picture that can immediately fill them. If these jobs exist in such abundance, why don't more women prepare for them? "Sometimes," replied Miss McDonald, "people are a bit afraid of working with children who don't know to read. Some have come our way who admitted they made serious errors of judgment in college bv training for elementary grades." Critical Period In addition to the college students who are a little shy about tackling the lower grades, there are some who feel they enjoy greater status bv moving into college teaching or in grades at the junior or senior high level.

Miss McDonald, who teaches during the summer at Peabodv College, feels this sort of thinking is rather foolish. "Ideas, attitudes and values are formed in early childhood," she says. It is at this period of life, she believes, that these, plus religious convictions, are formed. Changes later in life, she said, often prove "difficult and painful." Then, she asks: "Who is there among us with a greater opportunity to be of service to humanity than those entrusted with the development of the very young?" KY.

and then into Missouri. Kentucky gets its bridge further west and Missouri gets tha mileage Illinois would get under tha other plan. Illinois wants a Paducah crossing. Missouri a Cairo crossing. Neither particularly cares about Tennessee's share.

The result: a Mexican standoff. Missouri and Tennessee can get together. Illinois and Tennessee can get together. Or Kentucky could swing similar arrangements. Hopeful Talk Since they've been at it for six years it seems unlikely that the four can get together, although the recent governor's meeting talked hopefully about a joint recommendation at the next meeting next month.

As with most things concerning several states the Interstate in particular the problem will most likely be resolved when the U.S. Bureau of Public Roads steps in and slaps the route down. Then again, If the decision comes in election year, the federal government may just build four roads and make everybody happy. cooler reception from Ludwig Erhard. Should France insist on resuming nuclear tests, she faces isolation by a world opinion strongly behind the test ban treaty.

And what of a France without de Gaulle? "Aprcs moi, la pagaille (after me, the mess)," he once remarked. Italy Whoever emerges as premier from Rome's prolonged political crisis is expected to reflect the nation's general feeling toward the Common Market: that the market must continue to grow and that permanent exclusion of Britain would be a setback for all its members. At the Vatican, where time is more customarily measured in centuries than in years, the immediate concern of the new pontiff, Paul VI, will be the resumption of the Ecumenical Council in September. Many Italians predict Paul will be a political Pope, but there are still unanswered questions about his policies with the great temporal powers. Spain The question in Madrid is when will the reign Change Since production is now In excess of utilization, the report will show that an increase of about 30 per cent will meet projected requirements.

A continued decline In farm population is predicted, and will toe reflected in fewer farms in the state as a whole. The farms will be larger, and farmers will continue to mechanize, thus continuing to increase output per farm worker, the report says.

For another they wouldn't serve the vital Fort Campbell area.

Oh, yes. For a third reason those routes put more road in Tennessee and less in Kentucky. There might be still another reason in that corridor one would just happen to join a yet to be built but -already-promised western Kentucky superhighway. Each mile of interstate that can be taken on the route of this promised highway would be a 90 per cent federally-financed mile of Kentucky road. In the pivotal position as they are with this highway, Kentucky has been playing "you and me against them" with proposed routes.

For example: Kentucky says Paducah is a good point to cross the river. This has the advantage of getting them a new bridge across the Ohio. It also puts Illinois on their side for a Paducah crossing would send the interstate up the heart of Illinois to join a St. Louis route near Marion. If this won't work, says Kentucky's obliging Commissioner of Highways Henry Ward, there's this proposal But in so doing he has inspired a new nationalism that has led France away from the family of nations.

He disdains NATO, spurned Britain and insists on his own nuclear force. In Adenauer he found his strongest ally but his visions of French leadership of Europe are apt to find a Ludwig Erhard Prepared to take over Acreage of all agricultural land will decline by 1975 about 243,000 acres, as part of a pattern of change which involves population increase, and conversion of farmland to uses such as urban build-up, including roads. Sasser said the report will show further that demands of land for recreation facilities will increase more rapidly than will the increase in population. He said the anticipated 30 per cent increase in the state's population by 1975, together with a moderate rise in per capita consumption of farm products, will increase requirements in 1975 to about 40 per cent above 1963. in Spain begin the restoration of the monarchy? Gen.

Francisco Franco has indicated that when he relinquishes power, either by retirement or death, he will restore the monarchy, probably w-ith 25-year-old Prince Juan Carlos de Bourbon. What concerns many Spaniards more is what will happen when the 74-year old dictator of neighboring Portugal, Antonio Salazar, passes from the scene. The United States, dependent on both Spain and Portugal for Important military bases, also has the ticklish job of doing business with this last colonial power as well as a monarchy-to-be at a time when both have gone out of style in world opinion. And that brings this analysis down to the two dominant shapers of postwar Europe, Russia and the United States. Both are confronted with a common worry discord among their allies.

France has repeatedly rebuffed Washington by its veto of Britain's Common Market bid, its determination to join the nuclear club, its resistance to freer Atlantic (Continued from Page 1-B) "let the fat guy have his try." Britain Prime Minister Harold Macmillan may have been speaking with deeper significance than he thought when he commented over the Profumo scandal that "I do not live much among young people." For Macmillan's admitted loss of touch with youth served to dramatize the plight not only of his Conservative government but of the nation. After 12 years of power Tory leaders today acknowledge they simply are not with the changed and changing mood of the country's rising generations. Curious Malaise This Is a land still rich in talent, ideas, energy, purpose. British money still finances one-third of the world's trade. In the shantytowns of Africa and the slick cities of Europe, snobs still copy British dress and social behavior.

Yet a curious malaise seems to hang over a lot of the people. Streets packed with demonstrators at the drop of a non Federal Beat four states has been able to find a way to twist a route between Nashville and St. Louis to get more road in their particular states. Each mile kept in Tennessee, for example, is a mile lost to Kentucky and vice versa, of course. Tennessee, not hard to get along with, has proposed three routes any one of which it would bs glad to go along with provided it's not the short 'one.

Route one, or corridor one as Gov. Frank Clement calls it, would go directly north to Clarksville where it would leave Tennessee to traverse the Bluegrass. This is the short route for Tennessee and therefore not the best from the Tennessee standpoint. Farther West Corridor two cuts west through Dickson County a favored spot for the governor then north entering Kentucky after crossing the Tennessee River. Corridor three goes even farther west.

Kentucky will admit that Tennessee has a sane and logical plan provided they're talking about corridor one. Two and three, of course, are rather impractical. For one conformist or leftist hat give an impression of rebelliousness and frustration. The Tories stayed in power with assurances the nation "never had it so good." Yet performance never quite matched the Tory promise. Spokesman for this is Labor leader Harold Wilson, at 46 young enough to be Macmillan's son.

Macmillan's Edwardian elegance, from the tips of his shiny shoes to the top of his well-brushed head, seems to come out of a text-hook. The shiniest thing about Wilson's garb is his workaday, off the rack suits which he wears like a badge. Some time before October. 1954, British voters will have to choose between the two. France Charles de Gaulle, France's strongest leader since Napoleon, has a string of accomplishments to his record.

He ended the drain of the. Algerian war; he has brought governmental stability for the first, time in a century; he made a soft currency hard and led the nation to almost unparalled prosperity; he returned to the French much of their self respect. Here are some of the anticipated changes listed for the state in the next 12 years according to the forthcoming report: THE POPULATION of tha state will increase 30 per cent by 1975. Crop land will be reduced from 7,152,000 acres to acres. Forest and woodland will remain about the same in acreage or approximately Pasture land will increase from 3,373,000 acres to acres.

Alterations General Services Admlnis-tration Atlanta regional office, is expected to award a contract about Oct 1 for alterations to U.S. Court House office space on some of the floors, according to Nelson E. Perry, buildings manager. The guess is the alterations may cost about $50,000. The alterations largely involve taking out partitions and installing new ones.

Approximately 12 federal agencies will be involved in the shift of office assignments in the building. But one thing for certain, everyone is clammering for more space. Some of the agencies are being crowded out of the building into rented space to take care of expanded facilities for other agencies.

"The committee's report, soon to be off the press, actually inventories the conservation needs of the state's soil and water resources." said Sasser. Members of the committee include several agencies of U.S. Agriculture Department, TVA. University of Tennessee, together with state government representatives. Data on soil and water conditions, use and needs were compiled from each of (he 95 counties in the state.
