I think it would be wiser to be more deliberate about it. and profit by the mistakes that even the proponents say may be expected. Mr. Chairman. I would like to make a comment about the origin of the Peace Corps idea. Many Members of this body have been given credit yesterday and today for originating the idea. I announce to the membership that his idea originated in the brain of one Heinz Rollman. a refugee from Hitlerite Germany who came to this country and made a fantastic success under our free enterprise system. He has been advocating a peace army. as he called it. instead of a peace corps. for the last 8 years. Our former colleague. the Honorable George Shuford. from Ashville.
