 Three more proposals were in troduced, bringing the total to six so far.

Base Defense Has Aura Of Reality

Blank cartridges, SentrleS cud1- lenges, and the atmosphere of sud den and unexpected attack lent an aura of reality to the annual Base Defense exercises completed at the Kodiak Naval Station last week.
 FuII-scale anti-submarine war fare and reconnaissance were fea- tured between the swift Neptune Patrol BomberS of the Kodiak-bas- cd Patrol Squadron Two and the "aggressor" submarine USS Perch from San Diego during the open ing phase of the exercises.
 Evasive tactics of the submarine almost won the first phase of the operations for the "aggressor" forces until the patrol planes spot ted the submarine as she surfaced to launch the Underwater Demoli- fian Team and the Marine Recon naissance Platoon in rubber boats.
 Though theoretically destroy ed" the submarine continued launching operations, and the Ma rines Beach Jumpers" landed well outside the stations boundaries and successfully hiked through the rugged Kodiak terrain to capture their objective.
 Other objectives for the ''aggres- sor" forces were simulated atomic and guided missile installations at Kodiak.
 The opening phase of the exer- else was designed to test Kodiak's s ground defense organization n against highly specialized amphi- bious assault as well as the effec- tiveness of the Patrol Squadron's anti-submarine techniques.
 The closing phase of the exercise pitted sailors and station Marines guarding vital installations of the station-that included docks and fuel piers-against swift-striking frogmen and recon units launched well off-shore by submarines.
 Frogmen of the Underwater De- molitian Team conducted under water reconnaissance of the dock facilities Of the station for two days and finally struck in the early hours of the third day. Their attack was aimed to simulate the blowing up of piers and fuel stor- age facilities.
 5 The other unit of the "aggres- sorn forces comprised the Marine Reconnaissance Platoon that struck in well c0ordinated simultaneous attacks at communications and other vital station installations.
 The entire closing phase of the exercise was carried out in weath- CT conditions that ranged from fair to extremely adverse. Rain, snow and sleet were driven by high winds and hafiipered "aggressor" and defending forces in what prov ed to be an authentic test of per sonneI, training and equipment.

Local Natl Guard Unit Receives Top Honors

- V"
 Based upon camp attendance, ca pabilities of the unit and upon unit efficiency during the training at encampment at Camp Denali, the local unit, Company D, 2O7th Inf. (NG) Battalion was rated at the top of all Alaska National Guard Units at the encampment.
 Besides showing we'll during the training, the athletic prowess of the local unit was established. The basketball team was undefeated, in it's games with other units par ficipating, to gain the title Camp Champs Pvt. ReynoId Morris who represented the Company in a small bore rifle match, took third place, losing out by only few points.
 Men of Kodiak's Company D, Alaska National Guard. marched proudly by the reviewing stand in downtown Anchorage last Friday to the applause of reviewing digni- taries and others gathered for the annual Veterans Day parade.
 Company D was led by 1st It. Edward Pagano, acting company commander in the military parade consisting of units of the First Scout Battalion, Company A of the 207th Infantry Battalion and Ser vice and Company c of the 208th Infantry for Southeast Alaska. AL aska. Air National Guard vehicles and the 71st Infantry Band from Fort Richardson also participated in the parade.
 The troops were reviewed by ci- vic and veterans organization dig nitaries, Governor Frank Heintzle- man, Delegate E. L. Bartlett, Brig. Gen. John R. Boyes. the Adjutant General, Major General Edgar C.. Erickson, Chief of the National Guard Bureau, and other visiting dignitaries.
 Company D and three other irl- fantry companies have been under going two weeks of intensive field training these past two weeks with emphasis on weapons firing and small unit tactics. They returned home by commercial airline from their Camp Denali encampment.
 The training, which during the encampment. consisted mostly of training for the individual soldier and crews of crew-served weapons, included Administration firing for the 8I nm Mortar crew and the IS nm Recoiless Rifle crew, and record firing for the Light MIG crews.
 The training of the company was supervised by It. Edward Pagano, and each of the crews were trained by Ut. R. Berg and Sgt. Denato- machine guns, SEC William Rob ertson81 nm sznortarss and SEC Marion T. Howe, 75 nm recoilless rifle. Training for the Individual soldier was supervised and given by MISgt. Frank Pagano and Sgt. Caza, formerly of Kodiak.
 Many of the local men earned new ..stripesp and their names viii be released as soon as the orders promoting them are received at this station.
 Most of the personnel from Ko- diak found it quite bit colder in the Anchorage area, than here on the island, but at the same time were thankful for the sunshine

Do you know the truth? No girl in her righf

THE WEEK IN RELIGION
BeIeion School Reform
Opposed by Catholics

Istrations may not be so peace
Iful. especially after the truce
period expires.
Socialists this week announced
the formation of an Action Com
mittee for the Defense of Ma
Itional Schools. Its purpose viii
be to defend the school bill
against attacks.
Clashes Feared
The government itself is said
to fear clashes between Catfo-
lies and Socialists when the
hree-month armistice expires.
It is expected that Catholics
will now attempt to organize a
political offensive for the over
throw Of the government. Theo-
dore Lefevre, Social Christian
Party head. has already called
upon Catholics to inaugurate
such measures as withdrawing
their savings from government
controlled banks and blocking
state loans floated by the gov
Iernment.
Belgian Socialists may get
tough over the Catholic reaction.
On the other hand Socialist
political leaders, possibly with
some prodding by the Liberals.
may seek to pacify Catholics
with concessions.
It is unlikely, however. that
Catholics will accept such a
solution since they are firmly
convinced that the governments
aim Is the predominance of
state education.
Evening star., 1955-07-31

Roman Catholic leaders In
Belgium were preparing this
week to organize a nationwide
drive to annul a school reform
bill passed by Parliament.
The measure, which would
tighten state control over educa-
ton and reduce subsidies to
Catholic schools up to SO mil
lion a year. was approved by the
Senate last week after an 1s-
hour debate. 1t was sponsored
by the Socialist-Liberal coalition
government.
Before the final vote. which
was 9l-0, Catholic members
walked out of the chamber. The
bill was passed by the House in
June at which time Catholics
also walked out.
Throughout Belgium Catholics
received the news Of the bills
passage with sorrow. On indie
pendence Day, a national holi-
day, flags on Catholic buildings
in many cities were flown at
half-mast as a sign Of mourning
Send kilograms
Some 800 Catholic youth lead
ers sent kilograms Of mourning
to King Baudouin. They affirmed
their intention to take part in a
renewed offensive against the bill
to be spearheaded by the Nation
al Committee for the Defense Of
Democratic Liberties. The COM
mittee has been taking the lead
ership in mobilizing Catholics
against the proposed educational
reforms.
The bill has been bitterly
fought by Catholics for many
months in one of the most sus-
tanned campaigns ever conducted
by religious group against any
piece of legislation.
Many demonstrations have
been held by Catholics in cities
all over Belgium. The last one,
in Brussels on July 10, was at
tended by some 250,000 persons
from all over the country.
Petitions signed by Catholics
on behalf of 3.5 million people
protesting the measures have
been sent to King Baudouin. But
the protest so far has proved Of
little avail.
Unique Situation
In many other countries such
a determined opposition would
likely be irresistible and lead to|
at least a substantial comprom-
Use. But Belgium has a unique
political and religious situation.
It Is the only predominantlyI
Catholic country in Europe. and
perhaps in the world, that has al
strong Socialist party and trade
union movement. It also has aI
tradition of Church-State sep
aration that goes back to 1881.
Catholics also are well organized
in the Social Christian Party
that was in power from 1850 toI
1854.
Until now, Catholic demon
strations against the educational
reform measures have been
peaceful. This was due in part
to truce reached several weeks
ago between Catholics and So
cialists by which both sides
agreed to refrain from counter
demonstrations for a three
month period.
Some Catholic papers are now
predicting that future demon
