system in New York. There he hnds no
use Of school buildings, as the children
leave school to attend classes in nearby
churches or synagogues or other private
quarters, instead Of attending classes in
school buildings, as in Champaign. No
public funds are used, although teachers
necessarily administer the plan In part.
The schools, however, do not solicit recruit,
promote or publicize the released-time
program.
One may hope that Justice Ellsworth is
right, though the breadth of the McCollum
decision has left him on shaky ground.
1t will be a bad day for this country If
he is not upheld And it will be ironic
indeed If prohibition of the "free exer-
else of religion" in the form OF voluntary
religious instruction during the hours set
aside for school, comes from our courts.
The First Amendment and subsequently
the Fourteenth, making 1t applicable to
the States, had the legislative bodies in
mind in guaranteeing that Congress
shall make no law respecting an establish
ment of religion, or prohibiting the free
exercise thereof ."

Mr.. Truman Stands Firm

In his first press conference as a PreSi-
dent elected in his own right, Mr.. Truman
has indicated that he intends to stand
firmly behind the position taken by this
Government in the prolonged political con-
f1ict with the Russians.
He has formally ruled out any prospect
that he will go abroad for meeting with
Prime Minister Stain. He has no plan to
send a representative to confer with the
Soviet leader During the recent campaign
the President toyed with the idea of send
ing Chief Justice Vinson on peace mission
to Moscow. That was abandoned at the
