S114AA0O, aug. VI l. 4 AN
Nations Governors searched to-
day for a compromise highway
construction program that might
be palatable to a Congress which
rejected President Eisenhower's
proposals a9d Democratic SUBJ
stitutes.
A proposal that Congress put
q priority tag for highways on
more than two billion in excise
tax revenue appeared to be gain
ing Roadway today.
Gov. Fred Hall. Kansas Re-
publican who has been support
ing President Eisenhower's road
program which was rejected by
Congress. said such a proposal
was kicked around" in a closed
meeting of the conference reso-
lutions committee.
Gov. Hall, a member of the
group, told a news conference he
believes there is majority senti-
ment among the governors for
expanding highway construction
out of existing Federal revenues.
with no new taxes.
Gov. Edwin C. johnson. Colo
RADIO Democrat who has backed
the Gore bill passed by the
United States Senate but shelved
in the House, took the same
position in an interview.
Gov Hall said that of the
revenues collected on gasoline
and other taxes on highway
users at least $500 million more
yearly should be channelled in
to road construction above the
$875 million now sent back to
the States by the Federal
Government.
He said that only as "a final
and last resort should new
taxes be imposed. as was pro-
posed in a substitute road bill
also rejected IN the House.
Although the Governors listen
ed to praise last night from
Britain's Ambassador Sir Roger
Makins for Mr.. EisenhoWer's role
at the Geneva Big Four confer
ence and turned to a discussion
of mental health problems today,
their minds obviously were on
the roads issue.
Sir Roger told the Governors
at the State dinner of this 47th
annual conference of the chief
executives that at Geneva Mr.
Eisenhower had succeeded lin
laying, let us hope for once and
all. the ghost of the idea that
the Americans are a pack of war;

Gov. G. Mennen Williams,
Michigan Democrat, told his COL
leagues in a prepared address
that 1.-The problem of mental
health is still one of the biggest
faced by the people and the
States"
"One out of IL babies born
today will spend some time in
a mental institution. he said.
"Over one-half of our hospital
beds are required for mertnl

cost of mental healt

Walter J. Kohler, Wisconsin Re-
publican, said he is supporting
Mr.. Eisenhower's proposal for a
long-term, bond-financed pro-
gram.
Ambassador Makins told the
Governors Mr.. Eisenhower had
countered at Geneva Red propa-
ganda that the United States
wants war.
He said this myth" had been
created abroad by the "confu-
sion" caused by American debate
over any international policy. a
confusion he said was easily ex-
plotted by ill-disposed persons. "

explain what Mr.. Champion was
driving at.
The defenders started out by
attacking hearts, Mr.. Muzzy win
ming the second round. Now it
is clear that a successful flnesse
in either spades or clubs would
have brought in nine tricks.
Either was a $3.50 proposition.
But Mr.. Muzzy could have
given himself a combination of
chances to increase his overall
prospects for success. He should
have played the ace and king of
clubs first and then If the queen
failed to drop, he could have
fallen back on the spades.
The chances that either the
queen of clubs would fall or the
spade finesse would work were
81 in a hundred. Either of these
developments would have made
the contract and Mr.. Muzzy
could have tried the first one
without taking any chance Of
losing the lead.
Mr.. Dale had one fault to find
with Mr.. Champions position.
He was thinking that if he had
held the North hand, his first
bid would have been two no
trump instead of one spade.
A shade less scientific. per-
haps, but safer because it would
probably take the play of the
hand away from Mr.. Muzzy.

QUESTION: Why does tradi.
tional Judaism insist that Hebrew
be the language of prayer?
ANSWER: A number of reasons
are given for this restriction.
First, it must be realized that
general prayer, which is matter
of man making his personal plea
to the Deity may actually be
rendered in any language. It is the
standard prayers which are given
only in Hebrew. The Gaonic au-
thorities insisted that only He
brew be used as the official Ian
guage Of prayer in the days of the
Jewish settlement in Babylon.
One reason was so that Jewish
prayer retain its unique form and
not be confused with the prayers
of any other religion. Using other
languages could lead to substi-
tuting the prayers of one religion
for another. Furthermore, the au-
thorities realized the fact that the
people of Israel were destined to
be scattered among the nations.
Employing one standard language
would insure that a Jew be able
to go into synagogue in any part
of the world and feel at home
during the prayers.
Using Hebrew, furthermore, re-
moves the act of prayer from the
everyday language Of other peo-
Piles and places prayer on a pedes-
tai above suspicion, political or
otherwise. Many classic express
sions of Hebrew cannot really be
translated into another language.
More. and more do scholars see the

Mr.. Kahme deserves consider

Newspaper Editor
Hits Criticism of
Catholic DevOtiOns

CLEVELAND, o. - NC) - A
non-Catholic religious news editor
of metropolitan daily newspaper
here severely criticized the action
taken at the 10th General Assem-
bly, of the Presbyterian Church in
the U.S.A. held recently in Los An
geles, which found fault with devo-
tions Catholics pay to the Blessed
Mother.
In a day already burdened with
tensions this criticism could well
have been omitted" Richard Wag-
er, religious editor of The CleUe-
land Plain Dealer, wrote in his
column, Religion In The News
Mr.. Wager said he could risk
guess that at the Presbyterian con-
vention little or no mention was
made of the inherent points on
which the PresbyterianS differ with
the Baptists (on the mode of Bap-
tism), with the Methodists ION the
ordination of women, with the Dis
cipleS ION the frequency of com
munion) and with any number of
other groups-the QuakerS, Unitar-
ians, the Mormons, the Lutherans."
Mr.. Wager added that "the test
of 'Scriptural basis could be ap-
piled to these differences, as the
Presbytreians applied it" to the
Catholic devotions to the Blessed
Mother. The religious news editor
pointed out that the Presbyterians
at the convention more than at any
previous session, enjoyed a great
er opportunity for good public re-
lations recalling that delegates
took part in nationwide radio
broadcast and national TV show
but hurt their own cause by the
criticism of Catholics.
