The group was reminded by Mr.

q JOINT statement.
The president of the Southern
Rhodesian African National Con-
gress, Joshua Nkomo, the pub
Hcity secretary of the Nyasaland
African Congress. Kenyama Chi
ume, and the president of the NAL
avn Party of Nyasaland, orion
Chirwe, denounced the so-called
Monckton Commission as "a smoke

al issues at stake in Nyasaland. e"
Monckton Leads Study
The commission, under the
Craftsmanship of a former British
Conservative government minister,
Walter Viscount Monckton. is ex-
pected to leave for the Central At
rican Federation in February to
gather information.
It's aim is to prepare advice for
a 1860 review of the constitution
of the federation of self-governing
Southern Rhodesia and the pro-
tectorates of Northern Rhodesia
and Nyasaland.
The three territories were joined
in federation in 1858, linking about
800, 900 ites-two-thirds of them
in Southern Rhodesia-and some
1900, 900 Africans.
The white-dominated federal
government seeks from Britain
greater measure of self-rule in
1860.
Opposition to federation among
the Africans, who foresee domin-
alton by the whites in Southern
Rhodesia, broke into open revolt
in Nyasaland last spring. A state
of emergency was imposed and
some 500 African leaders were ar
rested and detained.

In France, a decree was

share in school taxes to relig-
ious schools either directly or
through stipends to parents

many and many other coun-
tries provision is made to
avoid financial penalizing of
parents for selecting religious
schools for their children.
Now here is a curious thing.
No nation on earth is more
firmly grounded in religion,
both by law and tradition,
than the United States of
America. Yet the US. cur
rently is pursuing a school
tax policy which discourages
the handing-down of this
American view of life.
That view, / have shown, is
enshrined in the Declaration
of independence, in the North
west Ordinance, and in count
less court decisions. Yet the
tax weight presses heavily
against the American religious
tradition in education.
CANNOT WITHHOLD
from the POAU the left-hand-
ed compliment that it has
done a remarkable job of sell
ing Americans a bill of bogus
goods through its outcries
about separation of church
and state"
The attack was first against
religious education, but by ex-

ONE OF THE ESSAYS, one,
by DR.. Gordon Zahn, on so
cial Science and War is
frankly and militantly pacifist.
It is perhaps an oversimplifi-
cation, but necessary in so
short a notice, to say that the
other authors accept the neces-
sity of dealing with nuclear
warfare in our age; but that
is pretty much what it comes
to. Jesuit Fathers John Con-
merry and John Ford contri-
butte rather brief essays on
the basic question of the NOR
atty on nuclear weapons and
on the hydrogen bombing of
cities. Father John Courtney
Murray, 81, in a long essay
on Theology and Modern
War" argues for a more thor
ough investigation of war
problems both theologically
and in political science, with
particular emphasis on the
problem of limited nuclear
warfare.
One of the best cases for
the practical impossibility of
giving up nuclear ornaments
or even of suspending the test
ing thereof, is Thomas E.
Murray's Morality and Sc.
curity: the Forgotten Equa-
tion," which can only serve to
strengthen the opinion of
those who feel that the Pres
ident's refusal to reappoint
Mr.. Murray to the Atomic En-
ergy Commission was a colos-
sal blunder, the effects Of
which will long be felt.
SPACE DOES NOT allow
comment on the other essays,
but the whole volume de-
serves careful reading, and I
should like once again to
praise the INTELLECTUALLY.

BOOKS OF THE HOUR
A~ugustine's
Lasting Influence
by Fir. Bernard Theall, O.S.B.

A final chapter is devoted
to a survey of Augustine's
authority and influence. A Sc
lective photography adds i'm.
portant new works to the orig
inal photography Of Father
Portable. AS an overall survey
of the work and influence of
one whom all Christians claim
as their own, this is a fine adj
dition to Regnery's Library Of
Living Catholic Thought.
st. Augustine's best-known
and most influential work, of
course, is the Confessions.
This work has now been made
more accessible than ever in a
highly readable new transla-
ton by Msgr. John K. Ryan
Doubleday Image Books,
S1.25). Msgr. Ryan provides a
most helpful introduction to
the work.
But those who wish a more
detailed guide will find it in
Msgr. Romano Guardini's The
Conversion of Angus I g,
translated by Elinor Briefs
(Newman, $3.95). Reversing
the usual order, Msgr. Guar
DIM analyses first the book
itself in terms of its basic
themes and their interpreta-
ton. He then devotes about a
quarter of the book at its end
to a consideration of the CEN
trail episodes of Augustine's
life which shed light upon the
Confessions. .
WITH and
kindred questions agitating
today the United Nations and
the world, the Catholic con.
fused by the multiplicity Of
opinions in this area may find
some help in a symposium on
Morality and Modern Warfare,
edited by William J. Nagle

The book consists of nine
essays and an immensely i'm.
pressive and useful bibliogra-
ply on "The Moral Problem
of Modern Warfare" compiled
by Noel ]. Brown, which may
we'll be the most permanent
and practical feature of the

The past few months
have seen several books,
on the life and thought
of st. Augustine, always
one of the most contem-
porary of spiritual writ
ers. He is also much re-
ferred to these days because
of the ages great interest in
the meaning of history, about
which he was the first to the.
orize Systematically, in The
City of God.
The most generally useful
of the new books would ap-
pear to be Father Eugene

survey, A Guide TO fhe
Thought of ST. Augustine,
translated by a fellow Jesuit,
Father Ralph Bastian reg
merry, $3.50 Originally a mono
graph in one Of the greatest
Of French encyclopedia works
on religion, this study has
never before been available in
English.
AFTER TWO Introductory
chapters summarizing the
facts of the saints life and
surveying his writings as a
whole, Father Portable ana
lyzes st. Augustine's teach
ing under these headings: Re-
ligious knowledge, The Di-
vine Nature, Creation and Gre
atures, Christology, Grace and
plagiarism (perhaps the two
central chapters of the book,
The Church, The S%acraments,
Eschatology the classical
Four Last Things), and the
Moral Teachings of the saint.

thing very wrong with the
much-publicized Interpretation
of church-state separation Civ
en- by such groups as Protest
ants and Other Americans
United for Separation of
Church and State POAU).
The fact seems to be that
in the matter Of school tax
justice, the US. is tagging far
behind in the free world.
A FEW WEEKS AGO, the
Northwest Territories Coun-
Gil in Canada voted unani-
mously to grant to religious
schools the same proportion
ate sums given to public
schools, both for capital i'm
provements and for operating
expenses.
The amounts are SITS for
each pupil in Grades 1-6; $3.50
per pupil in Grades 7-12. In
addition, a grant of half the
cost is given for each new re-
ligious school or addition
thereto, plus a government
loan for the other so per cent.
Belgium, meanwhile, has
solved its school tax problem
after more than 100 years of
conflict between religious par
ents, on one side, and social
list and secularist forces on the
other. :
INDEED. school tax injus-
tice was one cause of the rev.
olution which won independ-
ence for Belgium from The
Netherlands in 1880. Religious
/ parents resented the educa-
ton monopoly which Hollands
king had given to government
schools.
Independent Belgium's con-
stitution after the revolution
guaranteed tax justice for re-
ligious schools. Within fewer
than SO years, anti-clericals
attempted to destroy religious
education.
The anti-clericals were over
thrown five years later. After
the 1854 election, however, a
seeularist-socialist government
began whacking away at the
tax share of religious schools.
ASSOCIATIONS of Catholic
parents sprang up. The anti
religious forces lost ground
in the elections, and finally
agreed to take the school
question out of politics.
A law was passed recogniz-
ing the right of parents to
choose the education they
want for their children. 1t also
granted a fair tax share to re-
ligious schools, and provided
that in public schools, there
would be courses either in re-
