Gov. Tawes also put $12 mil

surplus away for a "rainy day"
and told the lawmakers to re-

He asked the Legislature to
appropriate the $12 million

$28 Million Increase
The general fund shows, an
increase Of $28.059,242 over
current spending, the largest
jump in recent years. Fiscal
experts said the average an
nual increase in general fund
expenditures is about SIT mil

up the deficit.
Most for Pay Raises
Much Of the above-normal
increase in the general fund
will go for increased salaries
for veteran teachers and State
employees and faculty salary
raises at State colleges and the
University of Maryland.
About $4.3 million will be
used to give public school
teachers with 10 or more years
service a $500 increase in pay.
A sum Of $2.3 million will be
used to increase salaries of
longtime State employees and
make other minor salary scale
adjustments. Nearly $3.50 900
is set up for college and uni
versity faculty pay hikes.
The base salary scale for
faculty members at the Uni

increases at the university will
go up $3.50 for professors and

BOSTON - Richard
Cardinal Cushing said it
is totally out of step with
the American tradition
for ecclesiastical author
ity here to dictate the politi-
cal voting of citizens"
This has never been a part
of our history, and | pray God
that it never will be-" the
Archbishop of Boston said in
a statement (Oct. 28).
Cardinal Cushing defended
the right and duty of church
men to speak out on public
issues which involve religious
and spiritual questions.
BUT WHATEVER may be
the custom elsewhere" he
said, in the American tradi-
ton it is enough simply to
call to public attention moral
questions with their implica-
tons and leave to the con-
science of the people the spe-
'cific political decision which
comes in the act of voting"
The Cardinal did not refer
directly to a recent pastoral

to Rico f~orhidding Catholics

fore (Oct. I'D by Archbishop
Egidio Vagnozzi, Apostolate
Delegate to the United States,
in reply to questions about

Archbishop Vagnozzi noted
that an Apostolic Delegate to

over the Church in Puerto

fore be improper for him to
comment on the pastoral.

am confident also that no such
action would ever be taken
by the hierarchy in this coun.

In their pastoral the Puer-
to Rican Bishops condemned
the moral and religious phi
losophy of the Popular Demo
cratic party, led by incumbent
Gov. Luis Munoz Marin.
(They said Catholics should
not vote for a party which &C
cepts the ''anti- Christian anti
Catholic philosophy based on
the modern heresy that the
popular will, not the Divine
law, decides what is moral or
immoral
Cardinal Cushing said in
his statement that American
tradition ''has always encour-
aged the discussion of moral
and religious questions in
helping to form the intelli-
gent decision of the voter
He said citizens attitudes
on such moral issues as gam
bling or liquor or steriliza-
ton or euthanasia' are ex-
pected to influence their vot-
ing.
For this reason. he con-
tinued, it is accepted practice
in this country for religious
leaders "of whatever denoml-
nation" to discuss public is
sues and offer advice where
spiritual and religious mat

Be Informed
And Vote!

During the year we are asked to observe many
special weeks or days" to promote a good cause.
Few of these have the significance of November 6,
7, and 8, which have been proclaimed as american
Heritage Days by Ohio,s Secretary of State, to ask
citizens to set aside these days for conscientious medi-
tation; for acquainting ourselves with candidates and
issues and finally, for the exercise of the precious priv
ilege of choice"
OF PARTICULAR INTEREST is November 6,
which is being observed nationally as American Herr
tage Sunday" We should pray that day that all eigi-
BILE voters will cast their ballots on Tuesday in an in
formed manner, realizing that this civic duty Is a pre-
cious right and a religious and moral obligation as
we'll.
The vote, which every qualified citizen should
exercise Tuesday, is not a mere patriotic gesture. 1t
is a meaningful expression of an individual judgment
and evaluation. 1t is all important to our democratic
way of life.
THE ELECTORAL FRANCHISE can only be prop
erly exercised if citizens are informed. 1t is still not
too late to clarity any uncertainties in our minds.
The presidential and vice presidential race has oc-
cupied center stage for the past two months. Surely
we should be able to make a judgment and vote for
the ticket we believe is best qualified to serve the
hest interests of our country.
We should be conscious also that this election is
not concerned only with the national ticket. We must
choose representatives to Congress ond our state as
sembly. State and county officials and judges must
also be selected. Certain issues must be passed upon.
KNOW JOUR- CANDIDATES. Study the issues.
Then cast your ballot intelligently.
What about the Catholic" issue? A mans rei-
ligion will enter into our evaluation of his character,
but again we should not vote for him Tor against HIM
SOLELY for religious reasons. We must keep the com
mon good of the people uppermost in our MINDS. Cath
Ole candidate should be judged on their individual
merits, but we should insist that other things being
equal a good Catholic cannot help but be a good pub
lie official.
In passing, it might be remarked that the success
or failure of any Catholic candidate, including the
presidential one, will not affect the Catholic Church
as such. The Church has done we'll in the United States
and will continue to prosper with Gods grace regard
less of the outcome of this election.
NO MATTER WHAT the weather or what preoc-
upations we have on Tuesday, nothing should inter-
fere with our voting.
IN 1894 H LOSS of New York by less than one
vote per precinct defeated James G.. Blaine and elect
ed Grover Cleveland to the presidency. Charles Evans
Hughes in 1916 lost the state of California by less than
one vote per precinct and with that lost the presi-
dency. In 1913 President Truman carried California
and our own state of Ohio by less than one vote per
precinct and thereby won reelection.
Each vote is important. The right to cast it is
precious. We must safeguard that right at all costs.
