Nixon's Uncle
Nephew's Opinions
Former vice president Richard M. Nivon considers the
security and survival of the United States to be the new ad
ministration’s greatest problem, his uncle, Ernest L. Nixon of
State College, said yesterday.
Included in this fight for survival, he explained, are
national defense, foreign policy
and the cold war economic strug
gle. It is in these areas that Nixon
has recently criticized the Ken
nedy administration, his uncle
said.

The former vice president at
tacked Kennedy’s policy toward
Cuba in the TV debates last fall,
Nixon said. “Dick wbuld never j
have stood for the events which i
have gone on in Cuba,” he added, j
The trouble In Korea is de- j
plorable, he said, considering
the % -billion dollars the U.S. has
given in aid the American lives
and money given in the Korean
conflict of the early 1950'5.
Nixon said his nephew has
criticized Kennedy’s ec o nomic
policies. The former vice presi
dent goes along with his party
in believing that the government
should supplement, not supplant,
individual and private enterprise,
he explained.
The Republican presidential
candidate has also attacked the
new administration’s plan for aid
to education, Nixon said. He is
opposed to direct appropriation
to schools, believing that the gov
ernment could eventually dictate
how and what the schools could
teach.
Asked if his nephew would run
for the governorship of California
or for president again, Nixon said
he didn’t know. His decision,
when the times comes, will be
most greatly influenced by whe
ther or not the former vice presi
dent thinks it is best for the coun
try, his uncle said.

You’re needed...just as your lather and grand
father were. It’s an obligation that a lot ol qualified
college men have to meet...that of serving your coun-j
try, when and where you -are needed.
And the Air Force needs college-trained men as
officers. This is caused by the rapidly expanding tech
nology that goes with hypersonic air and space (light.
Your four years of college have equipped you to han
dle complex jobs. You have the potential to profit
from advanced training...then put it to work.
,There arc several ways to become an officer.
First there is Air Force ROTC. Another program,
relatively new, is Officer Training School. Here the
Air Force commissions certain college graduates, both
men and women, after three months’ training. The
navigator training program enables you to win a
flying rating and a commission. And, of course, there’s
v the Air Force Academy.
An Air Force officer’s starting salary averages out
to about what you could expect as a civilian. First
there’s your base pay. Then add on such things as 1
tax-free rations and quarters allowances, free medical
and dental care, retirement provision, perhaps flight
pay, and 30 days’ vacation per year. It comes to an
attractive figure. One thing more. As an officer, you
will become eligible for the Air Force Institute of
Technology. While on active duty many- officers will
win graduate degrees at Air Force expense.
Why not contact your local Air Force Recruiter,
Or write to Officer Career Information, Dept. 1
SC 15, Box 7608, Washington 4, D.C., if you
want further information about the navigator
training or Officer Training School programs.
