In vear-end report, George K.

ganizations whose work prepared
public opinion for the decision. He
stated, however, that major credit
for "this victory in line with the
promises of the Declaration of In
dependence and the Constitution
as we'll as the best traditions of
Christian democracy" belonged to
the legal staff of the National AS
sociation for the Advancement of
Colored People.
The Catholic Committee of fhe

In keeping with the theme of the

in common, such as those center
ing in family recreation, social life,
work, education, religion and the
popular arts.
Father SchmiedeIer said that
other topics relating to marriage
and the family will be discussed
and these will include the theol-

family life, the value of the home

es of child care and training in
the home, and certain outstanding
problems of contemporary family

among the most practical and
interesting sessions of our annual
programs" Father SchmiedeIer
said, "are always those that de-
scribe the various activities that
are being carried out in the var
ious dioceses and parishes of the
country. These constitute the far
flung apostoIate of the family that
represents the fruit of past conven-
tions. Many such activities will be
given a place on this years pro-
gram and dozens of workers from
the field will take part in sessions
describing them"
