NEW YORK, CGlobaD-Bestow
The spirit of good will whenever
you can. Keep giving, give as wise
ly a sposslble-but do give! The ex-
preston of hate means its early,
ugly return into our lives. What
we express in thought or habit al

the habit of criticizing others, no
good will can come from it. Cul-
tivate the worthy aim Of forgive
ness Forgiveness is mental SANTA

suggestions of a loftier nature than
animosity. Too, as we forgive
others, others are inclined to for

serious today as it was then. We
understand that the legislature of
the State or Arizona is now in
regular session. We have been in
fcrned that Messrs. Daniels and
Sims of Maricopa County intro
duced civil rights bill in the
House of Representatives in the
Twentieth Legislature, H.B. 292,
and that MessrS. Sims and Benson
of Maricopa County and Mr.. Robles
of Pima County introduced H.B.
81 in the Twenty-first Legislature.
We are informed that Mr.. Sims
made a motion to discharge the
committees in respect to H.B. 81
and his motion to discharge was
defeated 81 to 81.
We believe that the problem Of
racial discrimination in places of
public accommodation is a great
and pressing evil which requires the
adoption of corrective legislative
means which operate in the gen.
eral impersonal way and en- a state
wide basis Many western states
already have civil rights statutes
and have had them for a long
stime, California, Washington, Colo
RADIO, and now Oregon since 1858.
We understand that the law en-
acted in Oregon is working we'll
and that. the evils Of racial dis
elimination in public places which
it sought to correct are being
eliminated
We think t h a t everywhere
throughout the western states
there is a rising public sentiment
in favor Of the passage of civil
rights laws. AS evidence of this
growing public opinion we point
out that civil rights bills were in
troduced in 1858 in the legislatures
of New Mexico and Nevada and
were defeated on the floors of the
lower houses by very close votes
in the case of New Mexico by the
tie vote of 24 to "a; however, a
civil rights bill was passed by the
House of Representatives of the
Montana legislature in February
1853. A civil rights bill was intro
duced in the Utah legislature three
or four years ago and there is
greatly increased civil rights ac-
tivity in the states of Wyoming,
Idaho and Utah which we believe
will lead to immediate serious con-
sideration of civil rights bills and
the ultimate passage Of such legis-
laticn.
We agree with the National
Council Of the Churches of Christ
in the U.S.A. and the other church
bodies, that racial prejudice in
any and all forms is contrary to
the will and the design of God"
and that "it is sim. Of course, we
believe that racial discrimination,
which is the overt result of race
prejudice sin. It is our firm
conviction that the denial of food,
drink, shelter, and other services
and facilities in places of public
accommodation on account of race,
color, religion or national origin is
not only immoral and sinful but it

Priest Praises
Employment Basis
In Belgian Congo

JOHANNESBURG, South Africa
-(NC)- Catholic industrialiSts
in the Belgian Congo have won
praise from q Dominican priest
here for their system of recruiting
employees on q family basis.
The priest is Father oliver
Clark, O.P., a member of the
johannesburg Town Council, who
spoke before the Joint Council of
Catholic Africans and Europeans.
Father Clark described employ
ment conditions in Elizabethville
in the Belgian Congo, where, as
in other places in the Congo, 90
per cent of the men recruited
must come with their wives. Even
bachelors, he said, must lodge with
families and the mines arrange
''lobola" to enable them to go
home and marry.
Father Clark eontrasted this
situation with that which exists in
South Africa. The Africans work.
ing in the gold mines at Wit
watersrand, he said, are encour-
aged TO come TO work, but must
leave their wives and families back
on the Native Reserves. 1t is the
accepted policy in the Union that
natives must not bring their famil-
les with them, and this system
naturally leads to many moral
evils, the priest said.
In the Belgian Congo, Father
Clark reported, three-year con-
tracts are signed by the employees,
after which they can stay another
three years. After this period,
he said the employees have a
holiday at the company's expense,
the trip being made by airplane.

the whole of Africa south of the

the interior was entrusted to the

two caravans of missi0ners were

Real progress in West Africa
began only after World War |.
The tribes in the interior had
not been completely paeified Un-
til 1914. Anfi-clerieaI govern
ments in France had hindered

Ready Antagonism

Theodore R. McKeldin of Mary
land said here that he is in "open
rebellion" against those who say
the idea of separation of Church

cepts the doctrine he must take
sides and become "the antagonist
of one institution or the other"
This States chief executive also
scored the trend of much education
toward a materialiStic philosophy
and said that such education is
merely intellectual training that
fails to product "the highest type
of manhood"
Governor McKeldin spoke to
graduating seniors at the 147th an
nual commencement exercises of
Mount st. Mary's College here.
''1'he phrase, separation of
Church and State in its legitimate
dictionary meaning is completely
neutral" he said. 1t does not imply
an emotional attitude on the part
of either Church or State toward
each other, he added.

Indian Priest Slain

Father John Chiramal, Ma. A,

Father Chiramal resided at st.

however, within the next
few months. The crisis could last
for two years.
As see II, fhs government it.
self will introduce q few amend
ments TO the proposed school
laws on minor points for props.
ganda purposes. Then, IL II man.
ages 10 get the laws passed by
Parliament. il will apply them
at first with the utmost nodera.
fion. 1t will do this in order TO
give the people the impression
that fhs laws are much less dras-
fie than Catholic leaders claim.
In this way the Socialists hope
70 fight the next elections lin
1889 under relatively favorable
conditions. II they win. they will
thgn apply the laws vigorously
and try TO suffoeafe Catholic ed
ucation in Belgium.
Meanwhile, the Socialist press is
carrying on an anti-religion cam
paign In an attempt to win the
peoples support for this effort.
In this crisis Catholics are not
merely trying to prevent the gov
ernment from cutting state subsi-
dies to Catholic schools. The inn
portant thing is the fact that the
government is trying to establish
the supremacy of the public school
over the Catholic school.
The government is trying TO i'm
flUenee parents by granting ell
sorts of advantages TO those send
ing their children TO public
schools. Education in public
schools is free. for example, and
the diplomas given by the public
schools have greater value in Sc
curing government employment
than diplomas from Catholic
schools.
In this way, by denying true
equality between the different
school systems, the government is
violating the rights of citizens. The
time has gone when people beliey-
ed it was enough to grant purely
theoretical rights. Today we be.
lieye that in addition the state
put at the individuals disposal the
material means of exercising
rights.
II is vain, therefore, to maintain
that freedom of education exists
if one school system is supported
entirely by the government, while
in another system parents have to
pay heavy fees and schools have to
appeal to the generosity of the
faithful if they wish to exist.
