layed until later in the week.
ATTORNEY GENERAL
GIVES opinion that four
retroactive credit bills are
unconstitutional. A new three
tiered interest structure bill
is supposed to provide the
solution to the state's credit

constitutional notwithstanding
the attorney general's opinion.

from the Soviet Union, Red
China and other Communist
nations. He said he would call

McOoimiey Talk

Nebraska Solon Concerned
About Time-Sales Legislation
By Jerri O'Neil
Junior Staff Writer
The ultimate effects of the recent Time-Sales Act pos
sibly being declared unconstitutional by the State Supreme
Court were discussed by State Senator Don McGinley at a
meeting of the Young Democrats last night.
The senator was afraid that if the act was declared un
constitutional some dealers who had been charging the le
gal interest rate up to the present time would be forced into
bankruptcy if the majority of customers decided not to ful
fill their "moral" obligations and sue for return of their
money and the interest, plus the merchandise.
McGinley also spoke on three other questions, the Re
apportionment amendment, the petition for a partisan bal
lot, and Sen. Terry Carpenter.
McGinley, who comes from the less densely populated
western Nebraska area, was concerned that the reappor
tionment amendment might also be declared unconstitutnoi
al. If this should happen the senator said that "there might
be a motion in the house for a bi-cameral system that would
not necessarily be more efficient, and would cost more mon
ey. The amendment sets up the representative system on
a population and area basis, rather than solely by one or
the other.
Thus, if the amendment is judged to be unconstitutional
the two house system would have one house on a popula
tion basis while the other house would have an equal num
ber of senators from every county.
On the subject of the petitions for a partisan ballot for
the legislature, McGinley said that he was generally in fa
vor of seeing the issue presented to the voters. He felt that a
partisan legislature would provide more leadership for the
unicameral, which sometimes "goes in 43 different direc
tions." As for Terry Carpenter, Sen. McGinley said "Terry de
scribes himself as a conservative Goldwater Republican be
cause he wants to get the question settled as to whether Ne
braska should go conservatively backward or progressively
forward."
"Senator Carpenter," said McGinley, "is a credit to the
legislature, and sometimes, by his ardent questioning brings
up points in the legislature that never would have been
thought of if he hadn't bothered to question them."

TRAINING COMPLETE . . . Packing for Colombia, Peace Corpsmen Harvey John
son, left, and Mr. and Mrs. Jim Seeker prepare to leave the Nebraska Center, their home
for the past eleven weeks.
Orientation Sessions End;
Trainees Nov Volunteers
By Marv McNeff
Ag News Editor
Saturday morning weeks
of morning-noon-night training
will end for 43 peace corps
volunteers at the Nebraska
Center for Continuing Educa
tion.
The prouo has taken the
Peace Corps oath and are
now volunteers, destined for
Columbia.
Paul Andersen, a 20 year
old Volunteer from Aitkin,
Minn., a member of the Ag.
extension team, attended
Bethel College in St. Panl
for two years prior to h i i
training.
Andersen gave several rea
sons for volunteering, men
tioning he will be able to see
the U.S. in a more accurate
light, will be helping people,
and will grow broader by con
cerning himself with some one
other than himself.
The crouD will work in con
junction with the Columbian
government and the t ood ana
Agricultural Organization of
the United Nations, as a part
of Project Action which
will imDrove the nutrition and
general level of lining for the
Colombian tarmers, c a lie a
'campisinos'.
Andersen hopes to prove
several things:
that the program is worth
while, the individual can pro
duce meaningful changes,
however small.
The Streeter, North Dakota
volunteer who will be a farm
credit and cooperatives exten
sion specialist, James Iszler,
received his B.A. from Amer
ican University in Washing
ton D C. majoring in Eco
nomics. One of his reasons for Peace
Corps duty is his hope to serve
in an international organiza
tion, like the U.N., some day.
He also desires more experi
ence before committing him
self to any profession.
Not an idealist, Iszler saji
the small impression he
makes will be either good or
bad, and the personal contact
he has in Colombia will show
that not all Americans are
imperialists, or money hun
gry capitalists
Harvey Johnson, f r o m Co
lumbus, Georgia, was at
tracted to the training by the
liaison officer at the junior
college he attended.
One of four single girls in
the group, Donna Alexander
of Schalier, Iowa, has spent
two years at Iowa state Uni
versity as an interior decorat
ing major. She said her rea
sons for being in the project
revolve around her desire to
know the limits and capaci
ties she has and are partly
idealistic and partly selfish.
Miss Alexander believes the
complacency of the American
people keeps them from real
izing the importance of the
Peace Corps.
After a weeks home leave,
the group will arrive in Bo
gata on Monday, Nov. 25.

Scottsbluff Senator Outlines
Requisites For Governorship
By Frank Partsch
Senior Staff Writer
Sen. Terry Carpenter, in addressing the University
Young Republicans last night, said that, in order for a man
to be elected governor in Nebraska at the present time, he
must stand fast on two issues: he must oppose a state in
come tax and he must favor the institution of a bipartisan
legislature.
The senator, dubbed "Terrible Terry" by his colleagues
and the press, answered questions, expounded his political
theories, reminisced and expressed strong opinions on var
ious issues during the one and one-half hours he spoke.
"You ask me what I am going to do in politics? I'll be
blunt with you; I don't know," he said at one point while
answering questions.
"My problem is not In being elected governor; my prob
lem is being nominated and accepted by Republicans who
are not afraid to see the vast powers of the governor exer
cized as they should be," he said.
'! think that I am the only Republican who can beat
Gov. Morrison, but the people of this state will have to de
cide whether they want a governor or a master of ceremon
ies." Carpenter said that it would require a ''unique situation'
to force him to run for governor and that he would be in
volved in the race whether or not he was a candidate.
Carpenter said that if he were in the governor's chair
and an income tax bill came before him, he would use every
power available to him to stop passage of such a bill.
"Even our present tax laws will not be enforced justly
until a man takes the oath of office who will make people
pay on the basis of what they own and not who they are."
Once called "the wild mustang from the Wildcat Hills"
by a colleague on the floor of the legislature, the fiery sena
tor has changed political parties several times during more
than thirty years of public life.
"The greatest mistake one can make is being afraid to
change his position," he said.
Carpenter caught the eye of the nation in 1956, when he
nominated a mythical person, Joe Smith, for the vice presi
dency at the Republican National convention.
He explained that his name was called by the clerk be
cause he had expected to make a nomination, but his candi
date, Fred Seaton, decided not to run, and "I just said Joe
Smith. I was a victim of circumstance."
"Joe Smith shows that the average American citizen has
nothing to say in a national political convention. Many peo
ple thought Joe was being ushered out into the street, but the
Sergeant at Arms was really protecting me from the press.
I was ushered into the biggest news conference that I have
ever had the privilege to attend."
Sen. Carpenter said Barry Goldwater would be the best
choice the GOP's could make for the presidential nomina
South American Producer
Lauds Peace Corps Work
By Frank Partsch
Senior Staff Writer
Strong approval of the work
of the Peace Corps in South
America was voiced yester
day by a Colombian television
producer on a t h r e e month
visit to the United States as
part of a State Department
tour.
Juan Harvey Caycedo Per
ez, Bogota, Colombia, told the
Daily Nebraskan that he first
came into contact with the
Peace Corps training program
while visiting Syracuse Uni
versity, and has since been
quite interested in talking with
students working with the
Peace Corps at various uni
versities. "This exchange, I think, is
the best type of embassy the
U.S. can send to any coun
try," he said enthusiastically.
Aside from a few cases of
terrorism, said Caycedo, com
munist influence in his native
country is weak. "Most of the
people refuse communism,"
he commented, because they
are looking for better working
and living conditions, and
they realize that a commu
nist dictatorship would not
help them gain these things."
Caycedo told how the for
mer president of Columbia,
Alberto Lleras, asked the na
tion to "tighten their belts"
in an effort to stablize Colom
bia's economy. "This is the
price we must pay for dicta
torships of the past," he said.
As a result, the purchase of
foreign goods is discouraged
in favor of their domestic
counterparts. "I, for instance,
have a 1950 model car. It is
good enough for me as long
as it runs," he quipped.
Caycedo gave another ex
ample of his cooperation with
the "belt-tightening" process.
"Although many U.S. ciga
rettes are sold in Colombia
and they are better than ours,
I always smoke Colombian
riparettes when I am there."
He explained that, as well as
helping the economy, Colom
bian brands cost only about
seven cents, and U.S. brands
are almost forty cents per
pack.
Cavcedo works for Colom
bia's only television network,
which is owned by the govern
ment, as film narrator and
production chief.
The network features both
commercial and educational
programs, according to Cay
cedo. Educational television
is presently in its pioneer
stage, he said, and several
groups have visited U.S. Edu
cational Television facilities
in order to learn U.S. pro
cedures. A problem encount
ered in all types of television
work is that few people have
prepared for it in any way
other than working "up trie
ladder."
The producer was very en
thusiastic in his praise of the
people and famines he has
met in the United States.
"One of the highlights of my
trip to Nebraska," he said
with a smile, "was visiting
with Spanish classes in Grand
Island Senior High School."
