School T0x Bill
Alarms FiIipinOs

MANILA-NC(-A bill to place
a 1870 tax on the net income of
religious schools in the Philip
pines, traditionally tax-exempt, has
been proposed in Congress here.
Under Philippine law private
schools are subject to income tax.
But Catholic schools, number
ing over 500, are exempt on the
grounds that no part of the net
income goes to the benefit of any
private person but is devoted ex-
clusively to religious, charitable,
or educational purposes.
The proposed bill, reported here
to have the approval of President
Ramon Magsaysay, has met with
vigorous opposition from the Ca
tholic authorities and Catholic
school officials throughout the ma
tion. N

Legislators Urged
To Kill Spread of
Right-to-Work Law

BUFFALO. NY. - (NC) - The
St Joseph Guild, an organization
of Catholic trade unionists in the
highly-industrialized area, has call
ed upon legislators in the State
and national capitals to take
positive action" to defeat the
spread of 'right-to-work" laws and
close the wage gan between North
and South
The Guild has recommended 70
lawmakers and top government of
ficials:
Amendment of the Taft-Hart-
ley Act ito make it impossible for
any State to pass laws involving
union security which are more re-
strictive than federal labor laws.
2-Amendment of the Fair La
Dor Standards Act to increase the
national minimum wage from 70
cents to S1.25 an hour. This would
minimize wage differentials be-
tween North and South, the Guild
said, and thus destroy much of the
appeal southern communities now
offer northern manufacturers
The Guild is made up of mem
bers of the AFL, CIO, railroad bro
therhoods and several independent
unions.

or as long as there is no sin, the
noted Redemptorist wrote in an
article in the March issue of the
American Ecclesiastical ReUiet0, a
monthly publication for the clergy.
Defining steady company-keep-
ing, he said the association con-
sists of three elements. 1t must be:
y frequent, D exclusive, and 81
motivated by some measure of af-
lection.
If all of these conditions are
fulfilled, and there is no possibility
of marriage in the near future, it
is commonly accepted, Father Con-
nell declared, that the couple is
putting itself in an occasion of sin,
and are doing wrong by frequent
ing this occasion.
II is quite likely, he added,
that this type Of association is
generally a proxirnate occasion
OF grave sin. II a boy and girl

fure, he stated.
In the article, Father Connell
hit out at the strange ideas" held
by many adolescents about the
morality of love-making. He said
many teenagers have the idea that
only a consummated sexual act is
a grave sin.
Hence" he continued, "the boy
who assures the confessor that
there has been nothing of a sinful
nature between himself and his
girI-friend may be found, on clos
er questioning, to be indulging
with her in passionate kisses, and
embraces, in accordance with the
methods used in the movies, appar-
emily without realizing that their
companionship has reached (at
least objectively), a stage of NOR
tai sin"
Even an association that does
not fulfill the three conditions for
steady company-keeping may be an
approximate occasion of sin, Fa-
ther Connell stated. He added that
if boy and a girl 60 out with
each other only once or twice a
month, but commit sin on those
occasions, their meetings must be
discontinued.
Even company-keeping that is
believed to be perfectly chaste,
the priest declared, must be reck-
oned a venial sin.

School Buses
To Carry All
Alaskan Pupils

JUNEAU, Alaska - (NC) =
All children attending accred-
tied schools in the Territory
of Alaska are entitled to bus
transportation under a law
enacted by the Territorial
Legislature.
The measure, House Bill 40,
was introduced and passed on
its merits as a health and
safety measure. 1t declares:
THE health of all children is
endangered by requiring them to
walk long distances to school in
inclement weather; and their safe
ty also is endangered in requiring
them to so walk TO their schools
along highways that have no side
walks"
The law declares: an those
places in Alaska where trans
portation is provided for chill.
dren sftenoing public schools,
transportation shall likewise be
provided for children who, in
compliance with fhe compulsory
education laws Of Alaska, attend
non-pUblie schools"
1t is decreed that the act shall
be administered by the Commis-
sioner of Education, under super
vision of the Territorial Board of
Education, and the cost of trans
portation shall be paid from funds
appropriated for that purpose by
the Legislature.
The measure was passed by
the House, 10 TO 8, and il was
approved by the Senate II TO 3.
The vote in the Senate came af-
ter a Seventh-Day Adventist min
lister, Rev. Harold X. Dawson of
Juneau, testified against the bill,
declaring his belief it would even
tually lead to public support for
church schools.
Opponents of the law sought to
have Governor F. Frank Heintzle-
man veto it. The time for exercis-
ing gubernatorial veto has ex-
pired.

Teacher Crisis
To Be Studied
At NCEA Meet

WASHINGTON - (NC) -
Repeated reminders by the
Pope of the Catholics duty to
develop his intellect TO its
greatest capacity will get solid
assistance at the SIND annual
convention of the National
Catholic Educational Associa-
ton.
The meeting is scheduled April
IL to Is in Atlantic City, and up
wards of 10000 teachers and school
administrators from all over the
country are due to take part in
what will amount to an exploration
of virtually the whole gamut of
Catholic education.
Among delegates from ihe CO.
lUnbus Diocese will be Father
Bennett APpIessfe, sUperinfend-
ent of schools; Father Robert
White. principal % Portsmouth
High School; Sister Francois,
SIND, director Of the diocesan
guidance center; and Sister Be
atrice, o.P., and Sister Lillian,
0.S.F.. diocesan school super
visoFx.
The twin problem of burgeoning
enrollmentS and teacher shortages
viii be given special emphasis, as
win another of the crises peculiar
to the present day-the nations
shortage of manpower adequately
trained in the scientific field.
The teacher shortage will be
tackled from two sides-the stimu.
lation of vocations for lay men
and women and for the teaching
sisterhoods.
Among the speakers slated 10
address various sections OF the
NcEA are Bishop John ]. Wright
Of Worcester; author and pub
fisher Frank Sheed, and Or.
Francis IA. Forster, dean OF the
Georgetown University Medical
School.

To those who object that such a
system would "subsidize religion"
and would be unconstitutional, Pro
fessor Gardner replied you cannot
bring up a child without imparting
to ii some religion and you cannot
subsidize education without sub
sidizing religion in some way"
In addition, he said, "the Consti-
tuition does not forbid any State
to subsidize religion. 1t forbids
Congress to establish religion or
prohibit the free exercise there

independence and the First
a lendmeni than system under
which the right TO receive any
measure Of support from the tax
psysr is conditioned upon st-
tendance at q municipality con-
frolIed school" he said.
Zone obvious way" in which equal
treatment could be given to all
American school children, he sug-
gested, would be for the State
to credit each child of school age
with fixed sum of money and to
permit the child's parents to apply
this money to a school of their
own choice" "
Congress- he pointed out, has
adopted similar method in the dis
tribution of GI educational funds.
There is nothing in the Constitu-
ton of the United States nor in
any Supreme Court decisions which
forbldS a state to pursue the ike
course. On the contrary, this would
be a direct application of the prin-
eiple of religious freedom which
the Constitution of the United
States firms"

increase in the last six months in
cases dealing with indecent mater

Cabinet official said.
Past experiences, he said, have
shown that efforts to combat such
a problem occasionally are open
to attack and ridicule "by those
who make money from the sale of
lewd materials" He asserted:
"In other instances our efforts
to keep fhe mails clean produce
an almost inevitable cry of CEN
corship' by certain groups who
confuse license with liberty.

Mr.. Summerfield said the great

they have not asked, kept out OF
their homes and away from their
children. He said the Post Office
Department has no authority to
prosecute maiIers who offend
against common decency, but is re-

obscene materials through the
mails. The criterion used in rul-
ing on AVAILABILITY he added is
the ordinary standard of common

Calling for cooperation in the
drive to stem the tide of indecency,
Postmaster General Summerfield
said:
"citizens who wish to help the

consider obscene.
Postmasters through ghout the

Meanwhile, transportation Of
any obscene book, pamphlet, pic

Double Standard
Seen as Downfall
OF Man, Society

BALTIMORE-(NC) - The dou-
BILE standard of living is at the
bottom Of the breakup of every
great state and of individuals, ac-
cording to Father George l.. Hop
kinS, rector of the Assumption Ca
thedral here.
Speaking over the CHS. radio
"Chlrch of the Air" program Sun
day. Father Hopkins stated:
Search the pages of history
and you will find that preeed-
ing the breakup of every great
state, there has lUrked the sPir.
II Of compromise; the double
standard of living; the profes-
sion of q set Of principles and
IoyaIfies, natural or sUPernsi.
ursI, coexisting with q denial of
those principles and those loyal
ties in practice"
Father Hopkins traced the col
lapse of the Roman Empire to the
disintegration Of its government,
its laws, its literature and its peo-
pie. It was the collapse of a thing
grown tepid, of people attempt
ing to live double standard, he
said.
Quoting Christ's words, Every
kingdom divided against Itself will
be brought to desolation," Father
Hopkins said that what is true of
nations, is also true of men as in
dividuals.
The attempt to live a lie is fatal
to man, he said.
The double standard he con-
tinUed, is fhe attempt TO profess
loyalty TO fhe Word Of God and
be indifferent to or deny the
conclusions OF His Word in &C.
fion sets up q conflict, struggle
between what man knows and
what he does.
Following a life of such con-
flict, he added, is a disturbance
of the mechanism of unity deep in
the human person and psychiatric
and nervous troubles follow. "He
who attempts to live by the double
standard will find it a two-edged
sword of destruction" the Balti-
more priest said.
