70 work for better social benefits
for the family.
The organization is probably
best known to the average Cath
Ollie for its work to increase the
religious life of the family, Father
Edgar Schmiedeler, O.S.B., direc-
tor, said here.
This phase has always been
pre-eminent in our program of ac-
tivities," said the Benedictine
priest, who has been director since
the Bureaus founding.
To develop religious life, the Bu-
reau encourages the family to take
part as a group in religious activ-
tiles outside the home and to bring
religion into the home.
In activities outside the home,
the Bureau fosters movements for
family Communions, holy hours
and retreats.
The retreats are particularly
successful, Father Sehn,iedeIer
remarked. He cited the Arch.
diocese Of ST. Paul, Mimi, where
some 1900 couples have partiei.
Pafed in retreats held week-ends
except in the summer months.
One week-endseaeh month is re-
served for engaged couples.
Within the home, the organiza.
tion encourages prayers in com.
mon, enthronement of the Sacred
Heart, adaptation of the family life
to the liturgical year and family
celebrations of religious anniver.
saries, such as baptism and mar.
riage.
Although requests for literature
are generally handled by the 107
diocesan directors around the ma
tion, some pastors, Catholic organ
izations and individuals order di
rectly from the national office.
Popularity has prompted publ
cation of another booklet on the
subject, the priest said. This one
to be added to the list by the enc
of September, is written by Father
Bernard Stokes, O.FM., and is en-
titled My House is a House ol
Prayer" II describes religious rit
uals that can be held in the priva
cy of the family.

KIPA quoted DR.. Theodore Ad-
ans of Richmond, Va, president of
the Baptist World Alliance, who
went to Russia in August for a
two-Weeks' visit, as stating that he
had found there re-flourishing of
true respect for religion.
II also quoted him as stating
that the Soviets had authorized the
re-opening of 1,5O0 Catholic
churches and 800 Lutheran church
eS.
Commenting on the latter state
ment, KIPA asked: Has DR.. Ad-
ans been able to ascertain the
truth of this, or does he repeat
what he has been told?"
Qn a recent article written for
the N.C.W.C. NEWS SERVICE, Fa-
ther George Bissonnette, AA., who
served for two years as Catholic
chaplain to the foreign colony in
Moscow until he was expelled by
the Kremlin earlier this year, de-
clared that DR.. Adams statement
was utterly unrealistic.
KIPA stressed that more than
open churches are necessary to
justify speaking of true respect
for religion" So far as Catholics
are concerned, it pointed out, a
genuine religious freedom in Rus
sia would imply the unhampered
administration of the Sacraments
and the freedom of the Church
there to keep in full and constant
communication with the Holy See.

services rendered to America and
to democracy by public schools. To
say that because the authors praise
public education they are there
fore against private education is
like saying that because a man
likes a good steak he is against
fried chicken. Following the Car
dinal's line of reasoning, are we
to assume that every time he prais-
es parochial education he is con-
demning public education? That
hardly seems to be the position
of the large number of Catholics

the development of the public

retary of the Council of Chief State

DR.. Fuller took issue with Car

for Federal aid to school construc-

based on the number of school-age

DIR. Howard E. Wilson, secretary

sociation of School Administrators
said
Contrary to the accusation
made by Cardinal Mcintyre in a
speech in st. Paul, the National
Education Association does. not be-
lieve in requiring all children to
go to public schools. BY formal
resolution, passed in June, 1852,
the association respects and up
holds the rights of groups, includ-
ing religious denominations, to
maintain their own schools, financ-
ed by their supporters so long as
such meet the educational, health
and safety standards defined by
the state in which they are locat-

record these bodies demonstrate

THE Cardinal objects to re-
cent publication of the Education
al Policies Commission called
Public Education and the Future
of America Nowhere in the vol
ume does it attack private and
parochial schools. The Cardinal
says that the book urges repeal of
the Oregon decision, but it actually
supports the decision. Referring to
it as a 'momentous decision, the
commission points out that most
people took it to mean that the
vast majority of American children
would continue to attend the pub
lie schools-as was then the case
but that the way would always be
open for those who so desired to
attend private institutions. With
