Asian Understanding 'Vitally Necessary'
A University of Kansas professor of Oriental languages expressed concern last week that East Asian studies programs at the university lose momentum at a crucial juncture in U.S.A.ian relations. Carl Leban, a noted scholar of Chinese language and history, said in 1958 to develop an East Asia area studies program and to produce language competent graduates were faced with problems "just when they should be their greatest impetus."
Professor Says Chinese Needed
He pointed to the Intensive Summer Institute in Chinese and Japanese being held here under the sponsorship of a consortium of private universities heavily supported by federal funds in the past, the Summer Institute has received none this year and owing to lack of financial aid, its enrolment has dropped over 50 per cent from last year.
"Had not the University express their肋肋 in academic studies by giving us as much as they could, the summer program might have
Both Leban and Grant Goodman, chairman of the East Asian area studies program at KU, praised the program and its development over the last
"In a mere ten years, the University of Kansas has developed one of the nation's leading centers of East Asian studies, the leading center bet-ter West Coast," said Goodman.
The program was begun in 1958 with the assistance and urging of the Office of Education which had been strengthened the fields of Slavic, Latin American and Asian area at several universities that year.
The East Asian program itself has 24 specialists in 7 department of the humanities and social sciences offering over 40 courses. A special library collection in Asian languages has grown from nothing to 65,000 volumes, and volumes are added each year.
There also is the relatively new department of Oriental languages and literatures.

He cited the problems of funding which will affect the need for developing new programs, and maintaining the growth of the library of creating an awareness of Asian area studies; and of creating increasingly important role of Asian area studies; and of sufficient enrollment and student interest.
"The result may be that the effort of the past 15 years to build and develop this vitally needed resource will now be lost, the library collection permanently crippled and the faculty dispersed, and all at the moment when those will be needed most," Leban said.

The U.S. military has trained many American citizens in these special skills, but generally these people have been trained only in terms of their individual missions and their competence is tested by the real world. "The impact of Asia on American interests may have begun with
"Now, more than ever, it is vitally necessary that the United States understand the cultures of other peoples in Asia and of Asian countries," he added.
Nader Takes Brush To Toothpaste Ads
WASHINGTON (UPI)—Consumer advocate Ralph Nader charged this week that toothpastes containing stannous fluoride, a decay-ridening additive, actually stain teeth. He government to require warning labels on toothpaste tubes.
He also asked the Federal and local commission to require a ban on the use of Colgate toothpaste with MPF (momifluorophosphate) as a "toothbrush."
Nader made his charges in Kiratkipirt, the FTC chairman. A spokesman for the agency said its staff would investigate the charges and make recom- mentations or all of the charges are valid.
The Food and Drug Administration recently reported these claims are completely unsupported by scientific evidence.
Colgate-Palmolive said in New York that its MPT toothpaste was the first of its kind to be under new FDA rules requiring proof of efficiency as well as coverage.
This recognition, it said, was based on many years of clinical research to support our advertising claims which accurately phraseology for strengthening the enamel, since it does in strengthening the tooth.
Nader, citing studies published in the British Dental Journal and the Journal of Public Health Dentistry, told Kirkpatrick that "containing stannous flour is shown cause extrinsic staining."
He noted that "Crest with finely manufactured by Procter & Gamble and widely sold of these toothpastes, and others on the market include."
"We are calling your attention to the danger of牙 tooth staining from a product which should help to clean teeth." Nader said. "This danger exists in all stained teeth, so toothpastes. A warning label be given on toothpaste tubes to alert the public to these hazards."
A Procter & Gamble spokesman in New York, replaying to Nader's claims, issued the following statement:
"The research which Mr. Naderreciebs does not show that Creek stains teeth. The studies he makes are not necessarily old, refer to staining of debris and other material on the teeth which normally are, removed in proper order."
"This information has long been known to the American Dental Association and other dental scientists. Crest is the most extensively tested tooth paste used in the country, ago was recognized by the American Dental Association for its contribution to dental health."

WASHINGTON (UPI)—Veterans who received less than honorable discharges because of the murders in a blemish removed from their military records under guidelines that market out this week by armed forces.
"An individual who has received a discharge under other honorable conditions (for which he may be initiated a review of his records by the Board of Correction of Virginia) from discharge. Review Board."
Henkin said Deputy Defense Secretary David Packard's announcement during testimony on Capitol Hill Wednesday that he was making military drug ammunition retroactively to never already discharged caught the individual services by surprise.

CBS Case Draws Differing Opinions
WASHINGTON (UPI)--Two Democratic members of the House Commerce Committee work on whether the House should CBS President Frank Stanton and his network for contempt in refusing to produce unified film against controversial TV documentary.
Asked if he thought the House would follow the committee recommendation, Dingell replied: "I believe it will." Eckhardt said in reply to the same question: "I don't know. It
Rep. Bob Eckhardt, Tex., argued that the committee already had access to the full script of the program and texts of remarks by Pentagon officials excepted in the documentary.
Rep. John D. Dingell, Mich., who voted with the committee majority to recommend a citation, said it was "a legitimate function of Congress" to examine the film—called "out-taken"—of the CIBS program "The Selling of the Pentagon."
"Copyright 1971, David Sokoloff."
Dingell and Eckhardt appeared in a special hour-long interview on the CBS program Face the Nation.
Eckhardt said he believed the House floor showdown would come "probably Tuesday, maybe Wednesday or Thursday."

SALT LAKE CITY (UPI)—Sen. Frank E. Moss, D-Uitah, said this week it would be a challenge to view media if the house votes today to find CS President Frank Stanton in contempt of Congress.

Moss, third-ranking Democrat in the Senate, said, if the House finds Stanton in contempt "it would permit the federal government to second guess him," and permit a kind of censorship in reverse. It would be paralyzing to the industry."
