Discrimination Charge
lon Deferments

Catholics and Protestants are in
complete agreement on the matter
of deferment of Psychological stu
dents, but the statement of %
Protestant leaders last week that
the Selective Service Act discrim-
mates in favor of Catholics has Gre
ated a misunderstanding of both
the problem involved and of the
policy pursued by the selective serv-
ice, Msgr. Michael j. Ready, general
secretary Of the National Catholic
Welfare Conference, said yesterday.
The Protestant statement was
issued in formal protest against the
selective service ruling which can
GELS draft deferments for pretheo-
logical students effective July /.
Cites Catholic History.
"T.he Selective Service Act grants
an exemption to students in recog-
nized divinity and theological
schools in existence before 1885,"
Msgr. Ready said. Centuries be-
fore 1899 the Catholic Church es-
tablished her system of seminary
training for her priesthood. Cath
olic seminaries are reserved for
students who freely accept the long.
exacting years of discipline and
study leading to the sacred min
istry.
1.-THE Protestant leaders state
ment refers to all students before
theology as 'on the college level
This is open to grave misunder-
standing as far as Catholic SEM
inaries are concerned. Regardless
Evening star., 1944-05-11

OF the educational level students
in our seminaries follow a special
discipline and course of studies.
"The Protestant leaders refer to
their students coming from the
public schools and colleges of this
country They describe this policy
as based on principle because they
believe in public responsibility for
education in a democracy The
Protestant leaders use these quoted
phrases in reference to students for
the ministry from 'parochial and
church Uncontrolled schools
This distinction is very likely
why the eminent churchmen re-
ferred to discrimination 1t caused
them also to express confidence
that the public opinion of the
Nation would not penalize candi-
dates for the ministry in the public
schools and colleges of our country.
Tax-Supported Schools.
THE Protestant leaders woulo
not wish our citizens to believe thai
parochial schools are less public
than unsupported schools. Neither
would the Protestant leaders, I an
sure, make distinction between No.
tire Dame and Princeton as col.
leges of our country
Catholic young men studying II
preparation for the priesthood ir
our colleges - Georgetown, Holy
Cross, Boston College, Villanova
etc, are in exactly the same posi-
ton before Selective Service as stu
dents for the Protestant ministry
attending Harvard, Yale, Wesleyan
Wittenberg, etc."
Catholics as well as Protestants
desire the restoration of pretheo.
logical status for students in regu-
lar colleges, Msgr. Ready declared
but the Catholic system Of religious
training was ancient before the Sc
lective Service Act was passed. He
said officials administering the act
have recognized honestly the facts
of the situation, and that the Prot
estant and Catholic systems were
simply different.
Msgr. Ready said that at the di-
rection of the Administrative Board
of Bishops, National Catholic We'll
fare Conference, he called on selec-
tive service officials to restore the
deferment of archaeological students

Leo Lania Recalls Meeting MussOlini, Hitler at
 Beth=El Meeting

The public forum sponsored by the Beth Fl Mems Club at the synagogue last night heard an ad- dress by Leo Lania, a journalist who at one time worked on the staff of the Avanti, socialist news paper with Mussolini, and met Hit Ter personally by forging Musso- lini's name to letter.
 Hitler, MT. Lania said, never spoke normally, but habitually adopted a loud roaring tone as though he were addressing a huge audience. Unlike Mussolini, who in strict confidence admitted that his grand manner" was an act to i'm press the people, Hitler was over come by his own megalomania, and sincerely believed that he was chosen by Providence to lead the German people to ultimate triumph MT. Lania said.
 The speaker declared that more than 250,000 patriots in France alone are working in an under ground movement to defeat the Axis. Today Europe is more united than it has been in 200 years, he said.

their self-imposed daily ration of a couple of bottles holds out. Even the big U. s. Army officers mess here was forced in the middle of last month to put officers on their honor not to drink more than two one-ounce swallows of whiskey a day.
 Liquor by the bottle is harder to get-even at $10 and $15 the fifth on the black market than a c gasoline ration at home. Perhaps just to remind the nostalgia what it was like to own bottle, one British firm has introduced a new product, Whiskoda."
