Fulbright advises education for detente
Bv MARY ERNST
Staff Writer
J. William Fulbright, former senator from Arkansas, told a group of more than 200 persons in the Kansas Union last night that detente between the two sides of the Soviet Union will happen only when the two superpowers stop treating each other as an aggressor.
Fulbright, who served in the Senate from 1945 to 1975 and who is internationally known as an authority on foreign affairs, said that there was little doubt that the U.S. attitude toward the Soviet Union had been greatly shaped by preconceptions.
There are few foreign countries that we do not have a preconceived notion about whether they're good or bad." Fulbright said.
Speaking softly throughout the hour-long talk, Fulbright said that one of the most effective ways to get rid of these preconceptions was through foreign exchange.
The Fulbright Fellowship program was conceived and developed by Fulbright after World War II. It enables graduate in one of 80 countries. It also provides for foreign
Carlin views Bennett's veto as elitist move
TOPEKA (AP)—House Speaker John Carlin said yesterday that Gov. Robert F. Bennett's veto of a voter registration bill benefited Bennett's "elitist" attitude about government and who should participate in it.
Carlin, who is expected to seek the Democratic nomination for governor, said the bill vetoed by Bennett would have allowed organizations to carry voter registration certificates from door to door for the purpose of registering people to vote.
"While it might be easy for the healthy and wealthy friends of the governor to register and vote, it is extremely difficult for a large number of Kansans to make it to the county election official's office for the purpose of registering." Carlin said.
"The passage of this bill would have allowed those infirmed, those elderly and those in poor health to register in a more convenient manner. If government is to work, it truly must be government of the people and not of those whose health or work schedule allows them to register."
Carin said the legislation was proposed by a bipartisan committee, whose chairman was Andrew S. Cohen.
Referring to Bennett's contention that the bill might result in election fraud, Carlin said that once rural Kansans were not required to register to vote.
Lawyers argue moral questions at abortion trial
SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP)—With testimony endured, attorneys proposed legal instructions yesterday to help jurors decide whether a girl was banded as live infant when an abortion failed.
In the closing hours of testimony, lawyers for Waddell, 42, tried to show that any doctor confronted with a blue and gzingpet after a saine abortion would have let the patient
It would have been brain damaged, they said. "It would have been 'a monster'," she added.
"The baby was suffering from the effects of saline poisoning." Dr. John Menkes, a UCLA pediatric neurologist told jurors Wednesday.
From birth records, Menks concluded that "Baby Girl Weaver," the infant born of a saline abortion March 22, 1977, would have had no brain function if it survived.
Menkes said it it was "reasonable" for Waddill to order that no extracurricular activity be made.
students to study in the United States and for faculty members to lecture and do research abroad.
Fulbright also said that a large portion of the federal budget was spent on inventing new weapons, each one of which, he said, was more expensive than the other.
"A PITTANCE, relatively speaking, is spent on education; an area which, in my

opinion, is where the real power lies," he said.
He said that more than 1,500 Fulbright scholars were enrolled at KU.
Fulbright, who was chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee for 15 years, said the exchange program with the United States would be helpful to share the responsibility of world peace.
Because of their power, Fulbright said, the superpowers do not have the freedom to exploit them.
Falbright and there were two schools of thought about the relationship between the two groups.
The first one, he said, was the Cold War school. According to that school, the practices of the Soviet Union are repressive and the Soviet Union can only be repressive.
The second school of thought, and the one that Fulbright said be thought to be more accurate and promising, says that Soviet foreign policy has been pragmatic and that it has been shown to be reasonable in keeping the terms of weapon limitation treaties.
'THE COLD WAR school kept the upper hand after World War II," he said. "and has his own secrets."
The Truman Doctrine, he said, reflected this attitude and implied that there were only two kinds of countries, democratic ones and others, whose interests and all others, which were oppressive.
However, the United States and the Soviet Union were close to achieving detente.
"Just when it was doing well," he said, "the administration's authority was undermined and finally destroyed by Watergate."
Fulbright, who was an early critic of the Vietnam War, said that in the past few years people had started to realize that the Vietnam War was not part of a master Soviet plan, but was a civil war in which the United States supported the other. He also said the Soviet leaders had the same fear of nuclear war as U.S. leaders.
THE SALT TALKS have made progress but there is opposition at home because of other issues, such as the Mideast, Africa and human rights." Fulbright said.
people link those problems with the

If SALT was approved, he said, the rewards would be two-fold. It would save money and would have great psychological effects.

Falbright told the crowd that the trouble with the human rights campaign was not with its motives, but with its effects. It has also made movies and made them tougher on SALT.
He said there was nothing to be said in defense of the way that the Soviet Union treated some of its citizens, but he said he thought it was usually futile, and often destructive, to become involved in the war of such a superpower as the Soviet Union.
"I IT'T WITNITH our powers to lift the curtain of oppression," he said.

The real moral problem, Fubright said, was to prevent a nuclear war.
"There is no more compelling moral purpose," he said, "that the prevention of crime."
"The two superpowers are under an obligation to themselves, the world and mankind."
There are two foundations for peace, bpureight said, and they are fear and affliction.
Fear is the basic principle. But the concept of the "balance of fear" was by itself a radical change in the nature of fear.

In a brief question and answer period after the speech, Fulbright said he would vote for the Panama Canal treaties if he were still in the Senate.
"IT IS A REMNANT of colonialism," he said. "The only thing I object to is that they took so long to decide—it should have taken only two weeks."
He also said the real threat in the United States was an internal one caused by infiltration, which is accelerated by increased weapons spending.
"We're going to destroy the United States or ourselves," Fulbright said, "by our own actions."
"WHY DO THE HEATHEN RAGE?" Psalms 2:1 and Acts 4:25
In the 27th chapter of the Book of Acts there is the account of the Apostle Paul's trip to Italy and Rome to appear before Caesar. He is now a prisoner among other prisoners, in the prison where he was held. The stormier storm for two or more weeks the ship was wrecked and dashed to pieces by the violence of the waves. All the cargo and valuations on board were lost, except the human cargo of 276 souls. Every one of these escaped ships was taken to safety. The PAUL-AID beast had avoided them they had taken heed to Paul's warning. After sailing had been slow and dangerous for many days the ship put in a port called FairHawaii on the island of Cretce, to consider the advisability of stopping it from being towed to UNTO THEM, SIRS, I PERCEIVE THE VOYAGE WILL BE WITH MUCH HURT AND DAMAGE, NOT ONLY TO THE LADING AND SHIP, BUT ALSO TO OUR LIVES, NERTHLESS THE CELL, BOTH TO THE MARKER AND THE SHIP, MORE THAN THOSE IN WHICH WERE SPOKEN BY PAUL".
The Centurion doubtless recognized he had an unusual man among his prisoners. He was very considerable and courteous to him and gave him a sword. However, when it came to this prisoner's nautical experience and advice he figured it natural and wiser to accept that of the captains and owner of the ship as the guards of the sea, into the "jaws of death", and but for the presence of Paul and God's purpose for him to preach at Rome, it appears all the more astonishing that in his cargo (Down from the centuries to our day, all the civilized world has come to recognize that the Centurion had been wrong in his attitude and was with" — but for the most part it seems as men prefer the
advice of the captains and owners of the world's ships and cargo, rather than that of the God inspired prophets.
In this 217th chapter you will find that after it was too late to save anything except the life in their own skins, the Centurion, the Master, the God of the world, he heeded and obey the warnings of The Apostle. When they rejected his advice about remaining at Crête, for a long time Paul kept quiet. But after being tempest-tested for about a couple of weeks and all hope was gone, he had to leave the prison and abstinence, Paul stood forth in the midst of them, and said, sirs, you should have hearkened unto me, and not to have leased from Crête, and to have gained this harm and loss. Now I exhort you to be of good cheer; for there shall be no danger that you shall not suffer the three STOEED BY ME THIS NIGHT THE ANGEL OF GOD, WHOSE I AM, AND WHOM I SERVE, SAYING, FEAR NOT PAUL, *THOU MUST BE BROUGHT BEFORE CGAASR*, *THOU MUST BE BROUGHT BEFORE CGAASR* WITH THEE, *WHEREFORE, SIRS OF GOOD CheER* FOR IBELIEVE GOD, THAT IT SHALL BE EVERAS IT WAS TOLD ME. HOWEBET WE MUST BE CAST UPON A CERTAIN ISLAND.* Acts 27:21-28. After this we find the commandment of Actors on acting's advice in order to save their lives.
