 Barden, former schoolteacher, is a strong believer in aid-to- schools, but incurred the wrath of Cardinal Spellman last year when he took strong stand for con- tinued separation of church and state.
 Since then, the late Congressman Lesinski of Michigan was able to bottle the education bill inside his labor and education committee But with Lesinskis death, however.
