Catholic Review Sees
'Unfriend|y Attitude
In Mrs. Roosevelt

Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt.s words
and acts show an "unfriendly at
titude toward the Catholic Church
and its teachings" the widely
circulated weekly newspaper, the
Catholic Review. stated today in
a page-one editorial.
The editorial backed up the re-
cent reply of Cardinal Spellman
to Mrs. Roosevelt's syndicated
column on the Barden bill for
Federal aid to public school edu-
cation.
In an eight-point outline. the
editorial went ever farther than
the prelate and stated:
Mrs. r. is undeniably friend
ly to Communists. She pacified
them when they peeved President
Roosevelt much less than she has
peeved Catholics. Either that was
for votes-and venal-or from per-
sonal sympathy"
Quite possibly, the article con-
ttnued, Mrs. Roosevelt does not
consider ths-1ardsn bill discrim-
instofy. 'But- SIZE would: unless
the last few years have changed
her, were the bill to exclude
Southern Negro schools. or the
children of known Communists, or
any other class. Why make the ex-
ception for ,narochial and. private
school patrons?" point three
asked.
The editorial pointed out that
Catholic objection to the Barden
bill has been based on the rights
Of Catholics to an equal share OF
appropriations for public benefit,
not on any religious grounds. 1t
stated that Mrs. Roosevelt, not
Cardinal Spellman. had injected
the religious angle. into her dis
cussion Of the bill.
A sermon. delivered by Msgr.
John K. Cartwright in st.
Matthews Cathedral here July "a.
in which he asked for prayers for
Mrs. Roosevelt, was printed in full

Appropriations Jam
In Senate Delays Items
Tota|ing 26 Billion
BY the Associotsd Press

A total of SIG, ,809, ,2s2 ,632 in ap-
preparations piled up today be-
hind plodding Senate and there
appeared little chance of a quick
break in the logjam.
A bipartisan bloc of economy
advocates is challenging almost
every expense item in an attept
to chip off few millions here and
there.
Senate and House conferees,
meanwhile, worked on a compro-
mise to keep the Governments
vast machinery rolling with
emergency funds until the cash
can be provided by appropria-
ton.
Differ on Cut-Of Date.
The House and Senate passed q
stop-gap measure yesterday-the
second time this year-to provide
a part of the money which should
have been available by July /.
The House voted to keep the
money flowing to agencies through
August. But the Senate put the
cutoff date at August is. Con-
ferees are trying to work out this
difference.
Not only the domestic Govern
ment agencies but the huge for
eign recovery program was caught
in the jam. But an extension Of
emergency spending will keep the
aid program going.
The House-passed money bills
which still must receive Senate
approval are:
Foreign aid. $5,723, ,724. 900.
Third deficiency. $127,032 .243.
This is to supplement funds pro-
vided previously.
Civil Functions Bill in Conference.
Independent offices. including
the Atomic Energy Commission,
81 ,636, ,006, 900.
Interior Department. $500. $685..
Oil.
Military, $12.731 ,s34,47s.
Both the Senate and House have
passed the $751 ,440 $50 civil func-
tions bill which contains the rivers
and harbors program-but this
measure is in conference because
of differences between the Senats
and House.
