WASHINGTON-A breakdown
of the reasons for the separation
of some 1900 employees from
Federal jobs since the application
of the Eisenhower administra,
tion's security program would be
interesting.
1t has been announced that
this many workers have left the
Government service under the
security program, and mot more
than 10 per cent" OF them have
been "out and out communists
These facts have been given
widespread publicity, and they
seem to have been the subject Of
some miSinterpretation Some
profess 10 see in these figures an
argument chat the communist
menace in Government circles
is not as great as many supposed,
This could be. But the two facts
that have been revealed so far
regarding the operation OF the
security program do not war
rant the conclusion.
From what is known. il might
just as we'll be argued that
"cardcarrying" communists are
extremely difficult to track
down, even in Government cir
cles, or that persons who. wit
tingly or unwittingly, do things
that are of benefit Of the Red
cause are just as dangerous as
communist party members.
II should be borne in mind
that people are separated from
the Government service. under
the security program. not for
the sole reason that they are com
munist party members. but be-
cause they are bad securitw risks.

Ironically enough, many of
those who regard the Guaranteed
Annual Wage as undesirable in
principle like to think of them
selves as friends of private en-
terprise and opponents of stat
ism. In reality. however, they
may be unwittingly preparing
the way for more and more gov
ernmental intervention in eco

economic life is left to the tender
mercy of impersonal economic
laws, TO that degree-especially
In our own day and aegean we

security is on the increase. It

vate enterprise system - by

Amorai Theory
Those labor leaders who con-
sciousiy or unconsciously sub
scribe to the amoral theory that
the impersonal rule of free COM
petition rather than intelligent
human planning should be the
guiding principle of economic
life would do we'll to study the
conclusions of a non-Catholic bus
mess economist, DR.. Joseph l.
Snider of Harvard University's
Graduate School of Business Ad-
ministration. DR.. Snider, whose
1947 publication, The Guarantee
of Work aud Wages, is one of
best things ever written on the
subject of the Guaranteed An
nual Wage, is hard-headed eco
nomist. the very antithesis of a
utopian theorist He, is however,
more than a technical economist.
He is essentially a nnoralist in
the good sense of the word.
Technical economic. procedures,
he says. are admittedly import
ant but morality is even more
important.
by no means all the promis-
ing procedures for accomplish
ing business stability he writes.
"are economic or political in
character. There are important
moral elements also. In fact. it
is no exaggeration = state that
the more pressing need is for
Strengthening of certain moral
qualities rather than greater &c.

To which Catholic economists,
labor leaders and employers
ought to be prepared to say
Amen.

Quiz
Box
BY Rabbi Samuel J. Fox

QUESTION:: Is the twenty
third Psalm regarded with any
special significance in the Jewish
tradition?
ANSWER: Generally speaking,
its simple and concise expression
of dependence and trust in the
Almighty has made it one of the
most beloved of the Psalms which
is used in times of need and des-
pair as well as at any time that
the Lords help is felt to be need
ed. 1t is interesting to note that
the liturgical authorities have
made this Psalm required pray
er before meals.
QUESTION: Why is the twen-
tY-third Psalm customarilY said
before meals?
ANSWER: The Targum has
labeled this Psalm as a praise of
CD who fed His people in the
wilderness. Reciting this Psalm
before meals makes us feel CRATE
full to the Almighty who saw fit
to provide food for His people
even in the barren wilderness.
The Rabbis like to point out that
the twenty-third Psalm has 81
words and the Hebrew word ito
feed" ("zon'O is made up. of two
letters which together have the
numerical equivalent of 81. Also,
it is pointed out that the number
of letters in this Psalm is 227.
This happens to be the collective
numerical equivalent of the let
tiers that make up the Hebrew
word ''Berochoh" which means
blessing" These factors make
this Psalm especially fitting as an
introduction to a meal, the food
of which is to be regarded as the
blessing of the Almighty.
QUESTION: What is "Pikuach
Nefesh?"
ANSWER: "Pikuach Nefesh" is
the term given to fundamental
principle in Jewish law which
allows the suspension of the laws
of the tradition in cases where
saving life is directly concerned.
There are three categories of laws
which are, however, not suspend
ed and these are idolatry, I'M
chastity and bloodshed which is
not in self defense. The classical
example of this principle is the
fact that it is permissible to VIC
late the laws of the Sabbath if
through this violation a life can
be saved. The Talmud and the
Midrash base this principle upon
various statements of the Bible.
To this day this principle of Jew
ish law has been in effect amongst
traditional Jews. The Jewish
faith has thus exemplified itself
as being a living faith which was
geared to promote not only the
spiritual but even the physical
welfare of the human being.
