In no recent cases has there

But a leading official of the

The Week in Religion
By Religious News Service


Colorado's State Board of Ed
ucation has announced a rather
unusual ruling on an issue that
has had American churchmen,
public school officials and judges
wondering for a long time.
The board ordered all district
school boards in the State to
specify in their annual reports
whether religious periodicals are
used in their schools or the ia
sigma of any religious order is
displayed.
Funds Depend on Results.
j. H, Macdonald, board chair
man, said future payments Of
State school aid funds would
hinge on results of the certifica-
tionS.
But, he said, "Our position is
that the wearing of religious
garb by teachers is in itself not
grounds for withholding State
funds"
The board coupled its an
nouncement with an order re-
leasing school aid payments that
had been withheld from four
towns in Southern Colorado be-
cause garbed nuns taught in the
local schools.
The ruling was the Colorado
boards answer to questions that
in most parts of the country are
still unsolved and still worrying
the courts. the churches and the
public schools themselves.
Question Simpler Than Answer.
The questions-but not the
answers-can be simply put:
When is a public school no
longer a public school? How
much, if any, sectarian influence
can be permitted in a public
school without violating the
traditional American principle of
church-state separation.
Many answers have been sub
mitted. But the final arbiters,
the American people, have not
yet settled on any one Of them.
Or If they have, the judges they
elect and appoint are not aware
of their decision.
Court rulings continue to con-
f1ict. Judges often disagree on a
single case. And school officials
do not always see eye to eye with
the judges.
In Colorado. for example, the
State Boards decision to allow
the employment of garbed nuns
apparently is in conflict with
district judges ruling that denied
State aid to a school at Fleming
where nuns are employed.
The board noted this but said
that, in the absence of State
Supreme Court ruling, the dis
trict judges decision affected
only that district and did not
apply to the whole State.
An article in the 1853 year.
book of the Duke University Law
School says no court decision is
the final word" on relationships
between the church and public
schools because any such ruling
is open to revision in the light
of changing social conditions"
Kentucky Challenge Slated.
In Kentucky, a recently or
ganized Kentucky Free Public
Schools Committee is planning
to go to court to challenge the
practice of allowing garbed
Catholic nuns to teach public
school classes in some counties
