Daughters of the American
Colonists attacked "so-called

In another action, dele
gates called on the United
States Congress to review
and evaluate Immediately the
part the United Nations is
now playing in the destiny of
this country"
A proposed amendment to
the U. N. resolution which
would have urged Congress
to "rescind, nullify and void
the treaty made with the
U. N. Organizations and its
agencies" precipitated a
lengthy discussion. 1t was
ruled, however. that the Sug-
gested amendment was in the
nature of a separate resolu-
ton which had not been SUBJ

The Daughters commend
ed the efforts Of those seek
ing to rescue our schools from
the domination of profess
sional educationistS by a
drastic revision of curricula
and teaching methods as
they asserted that life adj
justment education" doesn't
adequately meet the stern
demands Of this era"
AT the same time, they
asked Congress to reject
plans which could result in
naturalization of our schools
and universities" asserting
that such proposals as the
scientific scholarship pro-
gram are weakening state
and local units Of govern
ment.
In a resolution entitled
church collectivism," the del
egates charged that the
fable of oneness. extolling
the glories of one church for
one world has tainted both
clergy and laymen." They
further asked for re-estab-
lishment of the teaching of
Bible doctrines thereby
rejecting the Marxist pro-
gram for a collectivist

preached and promoted by
