all teachers in the State. In set
ting the Elementary School Stand
ards the State Board consulted
both the private and parochial
school administrators.
Private School administrators
questioned the right OF the State
Board of Education to require
teachers to have certain addi-
tionaI credits in education sub
jects as a basis for certification.
They noted that their teacher
qualifications are in terms of bac-
calaureate, masters and doctorate
degrees, and that their teaching
standards are equal to the pub
lie schools.
Catholic School administra-
tors accepted the standards as
adopted by the board but felt
that the proposed H.B. 9O3 would
accomplish the following:

teachers in the college prepare

are in terms of baccalaureate mas

Senate Bill S

Another important Bill passed
by the Assembly was SD 153
which amended a section of the
revised code concerning the tenn
porary certification of teachers.
The section provides for the SUI
perintendent of Public Instruction
to establish standards, rules and
regulations below those set for
provisional certificates by which
he may grant temporary certifi-
Gates valid for one year and
which may be renewed for a like
period upon the request of the
school superintendent and upon
evidence of a scarcity of suitable
teachers. The Bill gives the Dioce-
san Superintendent of Schools
the same rights as public school
superintendent in this regard.

Former Fascist,
'Kaput' Author,
Dies As Convert

ROME - NC) - One of TIA
ly's most noted novelists, who on.
ly last month was baptized a
Catholic, died here after a long
illness.
Curzio Malaparte, So, was once
among the staunchest followers
of Mussolini. Two Of his novels
were condemned by the Church.
He attracted worldwide atten-
ton earlier this year when he
made a visit to communist China.
There a lung infection from
which he had long suffered was
aggravated. After three months
of unsuccessful treatment, he re.
turned to Italy.
Malaparte, whose real name
was Kurt Erich Suckert, was born
near Florence to parents of Ger.
man descent.
During the early days of the
regime of Mussolini, Malaparte
was an ardent fascist, and took
part in the fascist march on
Rome in 1922.
After a few years, however, his
faith in fascism cooled. He was
arrested by Mussolini, at the re
quest of Hitler, and sentenced to
five years. Imprisonment.
Malaparte is perhaps best
known in the world of literature
for two books "Kaput", which de
scribes nazi brutality in Europe
and "La Pelle" (The Skim, ir
which he attacked the Church
which he was later to join. .
Shortly after its publication
LA Pelle" was condemned by the
Supreme Sacred Congregation Of
the Holy Office and placed on the
J Index of Forbidden Books.

The chimes of Trinity Episco-

hour. From across the street, on
the steps of Federal Hall Memoir
al, George Washington looked
down with solemn gravity as the
brokerage houses emptied their
perspiring thousands into the

1t was a hot but clear July

the 100 mark.

The Catholic Evidence Guild.
A little knot of people gather
ed about the girls. An attractive
young woman, dressed in modish
brown and wearing large white
earrings, began to address them.
She said she would talk to
them about the Catholic posi-.
fion on Confession. There vas
. slight mvrmvr, and psssersby

Of the circle.
After a few minutes, the mere
ly curious drifted away. Others
took their places. Soon a hard
core of some 70 persons were lis
tening intently to what the young
woman had to say.
The guild had provided two
speakers. Jean Gibney, who talk
ed on Confession, is a graduate
of New Rochelle College and
teaches a school in Massapequa,
Long Island. She gives her time
and talents to the guild during
the summer vacation period.

Archbishop Marcellino Olaechea
Loizaga of Valencia.
In his address to the teachers,
the Pope outlined his ideas and
recommendations as follows:
I'm a society which is in COM
pIete evolution, as that of the
present is, you must preserve the
highest idea of your providential
mission because:
"a) It is, and always will be,
absolutely necessary, since the
early formation and education of
the child is something which
takes place prior to all succeed
ing social differences:
'eb) It constitutes the natural
basis for everything which is to
follow, providing early impress
sions and guidance whose influ-
ence can never be ignored and
which should be considered as
something definitive:
"c) Though the field of culture
increases constantly, it is certain
that in specific forms and on
some levels, it will never be with
in the reach of all, whereas the
first steps in education necessari
ly reach all of society, marking
it with a definite seal;
"But if your mission is to be
fully effective, you must have a
clear idea of what it is, remem
bering always the following:
"a) Thar your mission Al

knowledge which Is more or
less profound and more or less
broad. On fhe contrary. YOU
must be first Of all educators
Of spirits and, within due
measures, moUIders Of the.
souls Of your pupils;
"b) That your work cannot be
considered a matter of individual
commitment merely, but a social

ton with families and legitimate
authority, with a reciprocal ex
