Senator Hits Plan 10 Guard
u. 5. With Guided Missiles
BY the Associated Press

Senator Hendrickson sharply
criticized the Army yesterday for
announcing plans to defend large
American cities by guided super
sonic missiles, saying this might
invite a surprise Russian atomic
attack.
II am deeply disturbed by this
public announcement" Senator
Hendrickson, a member of the
Senate Armed Services Commit
tee, said.
II feel strongly that if the
Kremlin believes that war is in
evitable, an announcement such
as has been made in this in
stance could conceivably have a
drastic effect on its ultimate
plans.
1T could force an enemy's
hand in an extremely tense pc
riod in world history, where mil
itary victory may be largely
achieved by the success of an at
tempted knockout blow from the
air"
The Defense Department said
that this summer the Army
would begin installation of the
new guided missiles. These are
guided rockets reported able to
seek out and destroy aircraft
up to a range of 80 miles. even
when they attempt to evade or
dodge.

500 Educators Hear
Dr.. Lowry Warn Of
Communist Menace

Any peace drive by Russia'S
leaders is based on a belief the
democracieS will quarrel among
themselves and become involved
in mutually destructive war,
DR.. Charles w. Lowry, rector of

aware Of the grave menace Com
mun1Sm nOlQS Tor us.
There are many ministers
who are still asleep despite all
that has happened" DR.. Lowry
declared. There are many poll
ticians, liberal intellectuals and
businessmen among others who
are lacking in a true knowledge
Of the threat of communism.
DR.. Lowry listed ways the in
dividual can help in the fight
against communism. He can un-
derstand communism for what
it is, know its psychology, recog-
nize its theology as an unusual
combination of idea and force,
and be realistic in evaluating its
strategy and tactics towards set
ting up a world revolution.
More AwarenesS of Democracy.

LONDON, Mar. 28.-The rub
ble-strewn garden of London's
"house of murder" today yielded
charred human bones detectives
believed to be those of a fifth
victim of a sadistic, sex-mad
stranger.
Scotland Yard expressed fear
the toll may mount even higher
as a dual search went on-for
the killer and for more bodies.
The first four known victims
were women. Their bodies were
uncovered hidden behind walls
and under a floor in the dingy
fiat at 10 Rillington place, q
dead-end street in the SlumS of
Noting Hill.
Buried Beneath Brush.
Detectives digging in shirt

bones, believed those of a wom-

lid buried a foot beneath a yell

walled garden adjoining the
ground floor apartment of horror.
Pieces Of cloth and two bottles
were dug up in the grim search.
Police also took along the bush
for any clues it might yield.
The preliminary investigation
gave no indication how long the
bones had been buried, but the
charring indicated the killer had
attempted to do away with the
body by burning.
Scotland Yard has assigned
every available detective to the
Macabre case that has created a

again before caught.

Why Grow OId2
Exercise
Can Be Fun
For Family
By Josephine Lowmdn

It is always fun to do things
as a family. Modern life has
brought us great many benefits
but diminishing family associa-
ton has been one Of its losses,
4 Before there was a car in every
garage and even in many back
yards, members of the family
found diversion at home. Then
came the age of the car when
restless youth and sometimes
mother and father, saw no
reason to stay at home when
they could dash hither and
thither. This has been a loss for
youth as we'll as for adults. The
rich benefits of the family about
the hearthstone, or engaged in
games or conversation, alone or
with friends, cannot be esti-
mated.
In those days parents knew
their children and their chill
dren's friends. Today many par
ents have only nodding
acquaintance with their off
spring, except for paying their
expenses. Television has actually
been of some help, in that peo-
pie. young and old, stay at home
more in order to see televised
play or one of their favorite pro-
grams. OF course, it has not
helped the art of conversation or
the habit of reading. However,
most adults will settle for having
their children at home even if
they cannot speak to them.
In order to develop family life
1t is most essential to make home
as attractive as possible. Often
Just the addition of a ping-pong
table or archery or horse shoe
pitching game or an outdoor
grill, will keep the members Of
the family at home more often.
When one fad wears out, get an
other. The most important thing
of all is the atmosphere of the
home. No person in his right
mind is going to stay at home
when things are hectic and un-
pleasant.
Why not have a family exer-
else period? Father and son may
wish to develop their shoulders
while mother and daughter may
want to reduce or firm their
tummieS.
Exercise is really fun when you
do it with others and family life
is fun when you do things to-
gether. so this seems to be
natural outgrowth-the family
exercise time.
If you would like to have my
leaflet Family Exercise Plan"

envelope with your request for

Lack Of Religion
Blamed For Rise
In British Crime

LONDON-(NCl - British Home
Secretary SiI David Maxwell Fyfe
warned here that the general lack
of religion IN Britain today is one
of the root causes of increasing
crime.
The minister, who is responsible
for law and ordez inside the coun-
try, said the present crime wave is
"a symptom of d general decline
in the standards of morals and in.
tegrity in our community and in
family life"
"In the end" he declared, "the
problem is one which can be solved
only by a return to higher moral
standards IN the nation This can
not be brought about by parliament
or by ministers and government
departments. II leeds the help of
the Church, OF employers and trade
unions, and of teachers and all who
are responsible for the care of the
young"
Sir David, nop-Catholic, was ad-
dressing a London conference on
the Problem of Crime He said
that broken and unsatisfactory
homes and lack of parental control
we're among the principal causes
of crime.
Other factors breeding crime, the
minister said, we're the false values
stressed in films the emphasis on
brutal violence IN the comics"
and the failure among many people
to recognize the place of religion
in practical and daily affairs.
The minister cited statistics
showing that serious crimes had
almost doubled in Britain since be-

Right To Teach
In Public Schools

WICHITA, Kan. - NC) - An
attempt to bar nuns from teaching
in Kansas public schools has been
dismissed from Wichita District
Court, climaxing a nationally pub

Plain, Kan.
The case involving three nuns
who were employed as teachers by
the Garden Plain public school sys-
tenn in st. Anthonv's parish school
in Garden Plain, was dismissed as
moot" on the grounds that st. An
thongs Church had Withdrawn the
use of its school from the public
school system on February %.
The court had been asked to de-
termine whether the teaching of
pupils by nuns on: of funds provid-
ed by the School district of Garden
Plain was q violation of Kansas
State law. A petition also asked for
a judgment that all similar pro-
cedure is illegal in the State of
Kansas.
The move by st. Anthony's
Church to remove its school from
the public school system ended the
conditions with which the case was
involved, the court declared, and
the case was therefore dismissed.
Legal observers have indicated
that since the case is a significant
one, the decision may be appealed
and that the case is mot yet dead" :"
