United States Senator Ralph Yarborough yesterday called for more Federal aid to education. In a speech sponsored by the Harvard Young Democratic Club, he said no controls should be placed on such aid, even in the case of segregated schools.
The Texas Democrat also termed the loyalty oath amendments to the National Defense Education Act as "secondary to the main objective of the bill," and a necessary compromise to get it passed. He was co-author of the bill's college loan provisions.
