Czech Church Crisis

Inc vehement protest OF Archbishop
Josef Beran, head Of the Roman Catholic
hierarchy in Czechoslovakia, to q high
oficial in the Communist government of
that country Is noteworthy document. 1t
indicates q deep-going clash between
church and state in Czechoslovakia similar
to analogous conflicts going on In the
other Communist dominated lands behind
the Iron Curtain.
The profound nature of the conflict Is
bishop addressed his admonition to one
Alois Petr, who Is not only q top-grade
Communist and a cabinet minister but
also head of the Communist sponsored
Catholic Peoples Party" Petr and his
organization are accused of q variety OF
SINS" the gravest being an attempt to
found new Catholic church without its
current bishops and principal head In
Rome" The Archbishop warns that all
Catholics who aid the Communist govern
ment in its oppressive and schismatic
maneuvers incur the penalty of excom-
munication. This means that they will
be barred from receiving the sacraments
Of the church or association with faithful
members.
There can be no doubt that the aim
Of the various satellite Red regimes in
stalled In the countries of Eastern Europe
under the domination of Soviet Russia is
to undermine and eventually to destroy all
organized religion, as has already been
largely accomplished In the Soviet Union.
The only difference is the tempo OF these
nj tn to%>
Catholic country like Poland, some cir
cumspection is required. In other lands,
where the Roman Church is less complete
in It's membership and authority, stronger
measures can be taken against it. That
has recently been shown in Hungary, and
now the same thing seems set for Czecho-
slovakia.
Unlike Poland's, Czech nationalism has
not been identified with Roman Cath
olicism. The religious revolt of the
Hussites, which antedated the Protestant
Reformation, was nationalistic as well as
theological in character. And the subjec-
ton of Bohemia Moravia by the Hapsburgs
at the start of the Thirty Years War was
due in large part to q determination to
stamp out this schismatic Hussite move
ment. Hussite traditions, however, re-
mained, and when Czechoslovakia became
Independent after World War I, a consid-
erable section of the Czech population
formed its own church, which according
to the census Of 1920 (the last available
religious census) had nearly 800,00 ad-
heref1t& In Slovskia, which had his
toncaaH been connected with Hungary,
there was and is considerable Protestant
minority. Furthermore, 1t is notable that
the census of 1920 listed more than 800, 900
persons as without any religion" 1t
should also be noted that the German
element in Sudetenland, now exiled from
the country, was almost solidly Roman
Catholic. OF course, Czechoslovakia Is
predominantly q Catholic country, the
great majority Of the people belonging to
the Roman faith. Nevertheless, the factors
above mentioned should be considered in
evaluating the strength of the Roman
Church in decisive conflict with Moscow
backed communism, such as now SEEM
ingly impends.

History Of Dunbar High
Traced Back 70 1870.
To the Hditor Of The star:

Reading In your paper Of May 81 and n
two erroneous statements concerning the
first woman principal of local public high
school, hasten to cite the early history OF
the Preparatory High School for Colored
Youth. which was organized In November.
1870. by the Board Of Trustees Of Colored
Schools Of Washington and Georgetown. d.
e. In the basement Of the Fifteenth Street
Presbyterian Church.
Its first woman principal was Mary Jane
Patterson, who taught from 1871 when IL
was located in the Thaddeous Stevens
school. Miss Patterson was principal from
1873 TO 1884. while the school was located In
the Charles Sumner School building nj
Seventeenth and M streets NV and. after
1877. in the Myrtilia Miner School building.
Seventeenth and Church streets NV.
The Dunbar High School. the direct
descendant OF this institution. had q second
woman principal from 1901 TO 1906. when
Mrs. Anna J. Cooper served In that capacity
In the M Street High School building This
school. now known ~ the Terriil Junior
the District. Unfortunately. its record and
activities are frequently overlooked.
MARY GIBSON HUNDIEY.
Editors Note: Tie journal Of Negro
History for July. 1917. says that the fira
principal Of the ORIGINAL Preparatory High
School for coiored Youth was Emma Jane
Hutchins. She was succeeded by Rich
ard T. Grener. who served one year, and
then By Miss Patterson. who had served
briefly In 1872 and returned In ls73.

QeCll0HN our dIllIudi pOpushtauu
The opponents Of animal experimentation
direct most of their attention against the
use OF dogs for research It 50 happens
that dogs are peculiarly adaptable to certain
research problems Just as monkeys are the
most suitable for research In infantile paral-
ysis Because the physiological functions and
metabolism Of dogs closely resemble those
Of man they are most valuable In the study
and control Of disease. OF course many
other animals are used. such rs mice. guinea
pigs rabbits sheep. cattle and horses.
The public should be informed OF the con-
siderate care these animals receive at the
hands Of the research doctors. The anti
scientists" delight In misinforming the public
that the laboratory animals are tortured by
irresponsible medical students. One has only
to read the rules and regulations that are
rigidly enforced By those IN charge Of these
laboratories to realize how utterly false these
accusations are. No animal Is operated on
where any pain might be inflicted without
the use Of an anesthetic to allay all suffering.
This provides an interesting contrast with
the methods used ut public pounds to destroy
unclaimed or unwanted pets.
This problem resolves itself TO m answer
TO the following question: Which Ia more
important, animal Life or human life7 DR.
Anton ]. Carlson outstanding physioiogtst
