Abraham Ribi coff, D-Conn., was defeated in the Senate Feb. 4, but the jssue Is far from dead. In addition to Sen. Ribi eoff's pledge to bring the same bill up again next year, a similar tax allowance will be Included in the amend- gent to extend the National e f e n i e Education Act (NDEA) during the current Hssion of the House. According to Rep Edith Green, D-Ore., chairman of (he House Subcommittee on Education and sponsor of the KDEA extension, her new propsoal would allow a de duction from the total income on which tax is based, thus lowering the income tax bracket of the individual.

The primary objection to the Rib ic of f amendment stemmed from the nature of the proposal itself, as a tax relief for middle-income fam ilies. Mrs. Green calling it a "Midddle class scholarship bill," charged that it does nothing to help those studens who most need help. "Low income families do not pay enough taxes to benefit from this type of credit allowance," the said.

Sen. Ribicoff retorted that the bill was not designed as a substitute for any other form of aid to higher educa tion, but was directed toward the "underprivileged middle class." According to Ribi coff, middle class students are not eligible for scholar High School Seniors View Campus, Hear Klussman Four hundred high school seniors from 17 Nebraska high schools in the Omaha area converged on the Uni versity campus Saturday for discussions with faculty mem bers.
