'Power Structure'

"Of the fifteen hundred people at the
conference, five hundred were adults chosen
because they represented the 'power structure'
of the country." Mr. Thomas said. "Because of
this, the recommendations put forth by the
conference will probably be seriously reviewed
by decision makers on all levels of
government."

In the prologue of the Education task force
report Mr. Thomas stated that "The success of
the United States depends today, as always on
the power of unity and the strength which
comes from confidence"
