Accordingly. We probably could do worse
than try flooding Eastern Europe with

over there, the harder ii viii be for Soviet
propaganda to sell the idea that America

Todays Tricentenary Oratory May Overlook

To-day, with inter6enominataonal orstory,

named The liberation Act" The State De-

Cecil B. DeMille showed millions that re-

This application of present ideas and word
meanings to the action of the General As
sembly of Maryland on April 81. i6ss. at
st. Marys City. at once tends to eaaggerate
the scope of the religious liberation attempt

mem. The present day feeling that Ameri-
cans who subscribe TO the tenets of COM
munism cannot be loyal citizens is analogous
to the feelings of i7th century Protestants
on this continent about Catholics In their
midst. Spain was the great power OF that
century It had conquered or occupied
most of the American continents. II could
land armies that would wipe out the in
fant colonies. And Spain. with a Catholic
King, was the source of the Jesuit move
ment the driving force Of the counter
reformation.
Fifteen Years Of Peace.
The English Catholics hoped for a return
of the old order when Gods authority clearly
came down through the hierarchies OF
church and state. They were loyal to their
king although he was head Of a schismatic
church that was becoming more and more
heretical, 1. e., Protestant And they had TO
suffer the extreme Protestants outspoken
hatred of the Blessed Virgin and the Pope
and other elements of their religion dear
to them.
In spite of these intense feelings Catholic
and Protestant lived together in Maryland
for the first IS years and the only court ac-
tions regarding religion were fines imposed
for interfering with the religion OF others.
Then came the Act Concerning Religion"

The Senate and Schott's Alley

The Senators who made the spring slum
tour Tuesday came face to face with
phase of the redevelopment problem that
is of special concern to the Senate. Tney
walked into the middle of this particular
sIum problem when they entered Schotts 3
Alley. in the rear of First street Northeast,
not far from the Senate Office Building.
schott's Alley is really something for the
Senators to do some special worrying
about. For this is the alley whose n1ty
families have been threatened with evlc-
ton by the Senate, although they have
no place to co. They have been notified
that the Senate wants to put new once
building there.
The schott's Alley folks have no place
else to 60 because they cannot afford to
nav more rent than they are paying in
the alley and because there Is no pubic
housing available for them, either. And
Congress has refused funds for the
redevelopment program authorized IN 1916
"a program designed to provide new
homes for alley dwellers and other victims
of slum clearance Can the Senate in good
conscience evict the unfortunate occupants
of Schott's Alley without providing snelter
for them somewhere else?
Even If Congress now were to grant the
ts,0oo,000 asked by the District Redevelop-
ment Agency for the Marshall Heights
housing project, 1t would be. two years
before the houses would be ready for
occupancy. The Senate would not like to
wait that long for its new offices. And
the National Capital Housing Authority
has a waiting list of $4,000 low-income
families In need of rehousing. Some OF
the families already in public housing
could afford to live elsewhere. Their in
comes make them eligible for "gradua-
tor," as the public housers put 1t. But
thus far they have declined or have been
unable to graduate. And the public
housing authorities complain there is no
place for them to 60 after graduation.
once they get in public housing, IT Is hard
10 Dry them loose.
As q matter of cold realism, 1t might be
cheaper for the Government to pay ade-
ouate rent subsidies to the Schott's Alley
jewellers, when evicted, than to appropriate
funds for building them new homes at
public expense Such subsidies are not new,
Of course. The District Board of Public
welfare now is paying rental subsidies
10 more than $500 needy families, made
up of more than II 900 persons. the
average family is receiving $50 q month
from this source, in addition to money
for food and clothing. Some such arrange
mert as this might tide the Schott's Alley
eyictees over until Congress gets around
to financing the District redevelopment
program.
