Sectorion Schools Show Steady Increase in Pupils
By Mark Gnerro

American parents are placing
an increasingly greater reliance
on church schools for the educa-
ton Of their children. Today.
about 10 per cent Of the ele-
mentary and secondary pupils in
the country are attending church
schools, compared to 10 per cent
in 1910. Nationally, church
school enrolment is climbing
about three times faster than
public school enrolment.
Although Catholics operate by
far the greatest number Of such
schools, Protestant and Jewish
churches have also entered the
field. Almost every major Prot
estant denomination now has
some parochial schools in opera
ton.
The Washington area has a
large number of these schools,
offering a rich and varied back
ground of the different faiths
They enroll about IS per cent OF
area pupils.
Have Traits in Common.
Although they differ somewhat
in method. there are certain
traits they seem to have in COM
mon. Most set aside definite
periods for religious instruction
and religious exercises. All sub
scribe to the educational phi
losophy that religion should be
a welcome topic for discussion
even in secular courses.
The 400 students attending the
Hebrew Academy of Washington,
6045 Sixteenth street N. w., de-
vote half of the school day to
the study of religion.
Hebrew is the language of in
struction, and the Bible and the
prayer books have already been
studied in the original by the
time a child finishes the third
grade. The third-grade child has
acquired a speaking and reading
vocabulary of about 1000 words,
according to Rabbi Solomon N.
Skaist, principal.
Students from grade four to
nine study the Biblical prophets,
the Bible commentators, Jewish
history, ceremonies and ethics.
Regular devotions are part of the
day; Junior high students con-
duct their own religious services
each morning in the chapel.
Adventists Emphasis.
OF the Protestant schools,
those of the Seventh-day Adven-
lists give the most emphasis to
religious instruction. From 20
to Is per cent of the school day
is given over to religious study
by the 900 students attending six
elementary and one high school
in the area.
The Bible, church history, re-
ligious music and participation
in missionary and charity prof.
ects help the students acquire an
appreciation of their faith. The
Rev. H. w. Bass is education
secretary of the Potomac Con-
ference.
Students at st. Adams School
for Boys, an Episcopal institu-
ton. are given an hour Of reli-
gious instruction in the lower
grades and two hours in the high
school. A full-time chaplain is
assigned to the school.
According to Canon Charles
Martin, headmaster, st. Adams
is fairly typical of other Episco-
pal schools, although it partici-
pates rather fully in the religious
activities of Washington Cathe-
dral.
Students attend daily chapel,
conduct their own services, and
elect a vestry. A religious dis
cussion club is popular weekly
affair.
The Bible, church history and
doctrine are studied in grades
four to seven, then reviewed and
repeated in the upper grades.

Foreign Dollar Lack
Blamed for Increase
In Stored Tobacco
Rx The A,,oeintad Pres,

VIRGINIA BEACH, June IT,
An increase in the amount of
flue-cured tobacco stocks on
hand is due primarily to a short
age Of dollars in foreign coun-
tries. a growers spokesman told
the annual convention of the
Bright Belt Warehouse Associa-
ton.
L. T. Weeks, general manager
Of the Flue Cured Tobacco Sta
bilization Corp, Raleigh, N. c.,
placed the present stocks at 209
million pounds. compared with
100 million pounds a year ago.
But Mr.. Weeks said that the
increase in poundage stored is
not alarming.
Mr.. Weeks criticized practices
Of some growers and warehouse
men which he said are detrimen-
tai to the tobacco industry. He
said these practices have in
creased In recent years and "have
reached the point where their
cost Is prohibitive."
Among these he mentioned the
mixing Of q quantity Of inferior
tobacco with larger quantity of
good leaf; concealing damaged
tobacco. and dipping tobacco in
water to soften It.
j. B. HutSon Of Washington,
president Of Tobacco Associates,
Inc, told the convention 1853

poets are moderately favorable.
He added that cigarette con-
sumption In this country Is up
about 5 per cent over last year
and flue-cured leaf exports are
expected to exceed those Of the

May Get Case Today

The manslaughter case Of Air
Force Sergt. Howard E. Lowe,

Kansas City Victory
Revives Slim Hopes
lin Little Series
BY the As.oeiotsd Press

KANSAS CITY, Oct. 8.-Down
but not out, the Kansas City
Blues last night battled from be-
hind to beat Montreal, 4-3, and
keep alive their slim hopes in the
Little World Series. The best
of-seven series now stands at
81 in favor of Montreal.
The Blues turned in a SPAR
king performance, scoring the
tying and winning runs in the
sixth inning last night.
In today's fifth game, Mon
treal is expected to come back
with Hamp Coleman, the right
handed pitcher who won the
second game.
Manager Harry Craft Of the
Blues wasn't sure who his start
ing pitcher would be but it
might be Bob Wiesler or John
Kucab.
Kansas City, which had played
poor ball in dropping three
straight at Montreal, performed
brilliantly af1eld behind the two
hit pitching of Bob Ferris and
Mel Wright.
Ferris gave up both hits in
working five innings and was
lifted after running into a streak
of wildness in the sixth.
Bill Skowron, Kansas City first
baseman, got the Blues rolling
in the first inning with a two
run homer. Montreal took the
lead with three runs in the sixth,
but a two-run double by Catcher
Jim Robertson in the bottom of
the inning sewed up the game
for the Blues.
Ed Roebuck, who shut out the
Blues in the series opener, yielded
all of the Kansas City runs.
Montreal lost the services of
it's power hitting first baseman,
Rocky Nelson. He left after the
game for his home in West Ports
mouth, Ohio, where his father
is critically ill.
Nelson, already sold to the
Cleveland Indians, collected both
of Montreal'S hits last night and
is hitting 1859 for the series.

OF course, there have been some
changes made since Jamison was
pro there.
The 43-year-old Jamison, one
Of the most popular pros in the
Middle Atlantic section, usually
beats himself with his "some-
thing going to happen" COM
plex. If he makes a long putt
on one hole, he talks himself
into three-putting the next to
make up for it.
Twice last week something
disturbed him and cost JamiSon
a good round. In the $1,000
added pro-am at Virginia Beach.
he was two ur .er par midway
in the round when a drive hit
a telephone wire. He could take
the drive over. but he was upset
because it was such a good one
and didn't count. He finished
far out of the money.

and stopped at the ninth hole
to watch an inning of the World

went to pieces again, although
he salvaged a 70.
Yesterday he hit a few of his
approach puts well past the
hole, but he made the next ones

Then last week against North
Carolina State he scored with
the fourth-period touchdown
that put the game out of States

running pass play, with Weaver
catching a toss from .Halfback
Skinny Safer on the Is and just
bulling the rest of the distance
with several State tacklers pull
ing at him.
Weaver'S puntlng average OF
33.5 yards ordinarily would be
regarded as merely a passing
grade but there's a little more
to it than just the yardage in
volved. A number of his kicks
have been under very trying cir
cumstances when the Colonials
were deep in their own back
yard and Weaver was kicking
from his own end zone. Never
once was Weaver hurried into
getting off a weak kick.
He also places his kicks pretty
close to where he wants them
and away from the receiver. AND
while his boots aren't long. they
are high and his tacklers have

His nine kicks have been re-

ist) Party. In view of the
present world trends victory
seems very far away.
Washington is following
with deep anxiety the devel-

there an investment of some
$500 million IN air bases, and
until the planned bases in
Spain are completed these are
considered the best available
jumping-off place for our
heavy bombers in the event
of a war with the U. S. S. R
Any kind of trouble in Moroc-
CO threatens the security of
our military installations at
time when air defense by
counters strikes has become
more important than ever.
The summary dismissal of
the Sultan is bound to have
far-reaching repercussions on
the much-haraSsed United Ma
tons. The Arab bloc is COM
posed of individually weak
sovereign states which become
strong when they act collec-
lively. This bloc has an i'm
portant voice in the U. N. with
> which the United States must
reckon.
Our Middle Eastern policies
over the last seven years have
alienated the sympathies of
this bloc of nations which at
one time had only the friend
iiest sentiments toward Amer
lea. AS a result of this un-
natural estrangement the Arab
states, in spite of their hatred
of communism and fear of
Russia, were to be found in
most crucial tests in the Cen
eral Assembly either on the
side of the U. S. S. R. or "neu-
trail" when we needed their
votes.
Arab delegates have been
telling our representatives
with disarming frankness that
while they saw merit in some
of our stands they could not
go along with us without i'm
pairing the position of their
government at home. We had
become, in their minds, too
closely identified with mill
tant Zionism and British

Will the already weakened
structure of France be able to
withstand shocks from the
Arabs in North Africa?
This is a new headache which
Washington policy makers
had not expected to develop at
this time when world tension
has reached a new high point
What surprises our military

France has chosen this time
to handle a nominally Sover-

The deportation Of Sultan
Mohammed Ben YousSef. the
legitimate ruler of Morocco. is
likely to create serious reper-
cussions throughout the Arab
world.
The nationalist move in the
French protectorates of Mo-
rocco and TuniSia has fol-
lowed the Iranian and Egyp-
tian pattern since the end of
the last war. The nigh
handed, but heretofore reia-
lively mild, repressive methods
adopted by the Paris govern
ment failed to stem it.
In an effort to curb nation
alism's further growth, the
French authorities considered
it good strategy to play the
ambitious THANH El Glaoui
Pasha of Marrakech. who is
a figure more familiar on the
Paris boulevardS than in the
tortuous streets of his capital,
against his nominal overlord,
Sultan YousSef.
1t is true that the French
resident general, Augustine
Guillaume, explains that the
Sultan was exiled ''for his
own safety" because Ell Gla-
outs Berber followers had
risen against the Sultan'S ma
tionalistic sympathies and
were marching on Rabat.
This is understandable since
through Ell Glaoui the Berber
chieftains have acquired a
privileged position. The tribal
leaders have been so heavily
endowed" by the French that
they have become enemies of
the Moroccan nationalist
movement which has taken
deep roots among the Arabs in
