csc PRAISED-Meeting in
Miami. Fla. the executive coun-
Gil of the AFL American Fedora
ton of Government Employees
has approved resolution strong
ly praising the Civil Service
Commission for initiating an
employe relations program
throughout the Government.
Under the CSC's new program,
the commission is striving for a
closer management-employe re-
lationship throughout the Gov
ernment by closer contacts with
the various Government employe
organizations.
CSC Chairman Philip Young
and his colleagues feel that all
too often in the past, the views of
the employe groups were not ac-
lively sought on important per-
sonnel problems. BY working in
close contact with the employe
organizations, both the Govern
ment and Federal employees will
benefit from the exchange Of
information and ideas.
The AFGE executive council
praised the csc for initiating
the program and asked that it
be made permanent one. 1t
commended Mr.. Young and his
two colleagues. Commissioners
George Moore and Fred Lawton
for considering the Importance
of the employe interest in a
sound public service" The coun-
Gil also praised Hal j. Miller. who
has developed the program for
the csc.
The executive council also
went on record as opposed to any
return to the Governments old
efficiency rating system. urged
unemployment compensation
benefits for Federal workers, and
opposed legislation which would
permit the garnishee of Gov
ernment employees salaries.

Francis Joseph Haas of Grand

Bishop Haas had been scheduled

The main speaker of the even

Msgr, William J. Flanagan, pas

years ago and written by Bishop
Haas at the request of his fellow
American Bishops. The paragraph
can be a legacy of inspiration for

MAN is not an isolated indivi-
dual living in social vacuum, but
a social being destined to live and
work out his salvation in associa-
ton with his fellow beings. He
IS member of community and
he has. in consequence, duties of
communicative justice and duties of
social justice and duties of charity

Bombay Court
Backs Catholic
School Stand

BOMBAY, India - (NC) - The
Bombay State High Court has up
held the Church's position on edu-
cation by ruling against . new
school law.
The law, introduced last month
by Dinkerrao Desai, Bombay's Hin
du education minister, sought to
restrict admission in schools using
English as a medium of instruction
to Anglo-Indian and European chill
dren. Many Catholic schools, which
out of convenience or by popular
demand have retained English as
their medium of instruction, feared
that the law would decimate attend
ance.
The Bombay Education Society
and two parents-one of them .
Catholic-challenged the law as un-
constitutional.
Issuing a writ restraining the
government from enforcing the
Law, the court held that it contra
vened the provisions of India's con-
stitution.
The Chief Justice declared that
. parent hes q prior right over
ths state To decide what edues-
fien his children should have.
The state, he added, cannot fell
q Citizen TO send his child 10 one
school and not the other.

peal the decision TO the nations
