The effective work of our tax-sup-
ported school system has been the
subject of much criticism recently, SO
we could not help but be interested in,
the remarks made by Prof. Vivian
Thayer, guest lecturer, last week at
Ohio State University. Prof. Thayer
sees great danger ahead and seems to
point the finger at Catholics as one OF
the "well organized pressure groups
bent upon undermining objective and
unbiased instruction on sensitive is
Sues" and one of the religious organl-
cations who insist that 'the public sub
sidize parochial schools"
Must we point out again that Catho-
lies are not opposed to our tax-support-
ed schools? These schools are ours: we
support them, and thousands of Catho-
lies attend them. Obviously we are con-
cerned for their welfare and improve
ment.
What Prof. Thayer seems to be say
ing is that education is unbiased If
lit is without religion, that right think
ing is possible without a knowledge OF
Gods truth, that right conduct can be
ours without a knowledge of Gods law.
Experience denies this. We know that
knowledge which leaves out God is

fragmentary, and morality without re-
ligion is impossible.
His reference to government sup
port of non unsupported schools is
behind the times and beside the point.
All we ask is equality of treatment for
all children and parents, especially in
areas of supplemental services, such as
bus transportation and health services,
and like those already obtained
through the federal school lunch pro-
gram and CT bill of rights.
The danger to our unsupported
schools lies not in the opposition of
Catholics but in the fact that some ele-
ments in public education have forgot
ten that the fundamental purpose of
education is to teach children to think
and to observe and to respect moral
principles.
But as the Perspective" Column of
the July ID Newswesk stated: many of
our unsupported schools are "educat-
ing children in off-hour matters rather
than in the fundamentals" Consequent
ly they are ~"softening up a genera
ton of children, who in the face of
the hard work of Communist countries,
should be the hope of the world"

brew used a word that may ap-
ply to any close relative. From
many other references we know
that the Blessed Mother had no
other children and from the
Bible and Tradition of the early
Church that she was always a
virgin. We have no real evil
dence Of any previous marriage
for st. Joseph and it seems to
be well established that the few
ancient accounts which mention
such a marriage were inventing
the story in order to explain the

sons of Joseph but the cousins

is debatable whether or not
the steel industry should in

whether or not it should have

the end of World War ii.
But that's beside the point.
The point is that the decision
as TO whether or not there

tons, and vicious propaganda
which haunt the free world"
He asserted that, in view of
the worldwide record of the
United States for aid to the
needy peoples and for defense
Of the downtrodden, he would
not have believed "that peo-
pie with a free press could
be imposed upon by such
propaganda"
HE pointed out that the
American people have borne,
and continue TO bear. "a huge
burden of taxation TO aid in
protecting the freedom of
mankind and TO relieve peo-
Piles from poverty"
Despite their altruistic sac
rifices, Mr.. Hoover said, for
eign propaganda has made
the American people out to be
"imperialists" and under the
control Of wicked men"
He recalled that, 40 years
ago, "such attitudes contribut-
ed to the retreat of the Ameri-
can people behind a barbed
wire enanglement around the
Western Hemisphere" He
added that he did not ''fear'
such a retreat today, "but the
danger signal is up"
Mr.. Hoover noted that
President Wilson said the
world must be made safe for
democracy. But in our day. he
added, "the word democracy
has been 50 corrupted" that
he preferred to say: I'VE must
uneessi ngIy strive by all
peaceful means TO make the
world safe for representative
government"
The impression here is that
the United States and Soviet
Russia are not any closer to
an about shooting war" than
they have been, but that the
Western World is certainly in
for stormier times diplo-
matically.

More than that, we should offer
