DR.. John Mcdowell, dean of
the School Of Social Work
Boston University, told the fl
nal general session there is a
much better understanding be-
tween the clergy and welfare
workers at this conference than
at the first one in 1855.
He said this trend will prob
ably be quickened since modern
psychiatry emphasizes helping
people by using whoever is
readily available.
This should lead to greater
involvement of the pastor as
a member of the health team, y
the speaker predicted. Per
haps social workers, who are

DR.. Mcdowell further en-
phaSized the necessity of in
forming congregations regard
ing welfare problems and en-
listing their help in securing

tration in this area.
other findings of the confer
ence included the following:
There should be a united
voice from the church in rela-
ton to community planning
Where this has occurred, the

such areas as housing and ra-
cial questions.

OF a third student, was termed
a stupid prank" by B. James
Borreson. executive dean of STU
dents, who announced the sus-
pension last night.
He said the pranksters were
a junior and a sophomore who
had been in prior disciplinary
difficulties. Their names were
not made public.
The incident repeatedly origi-
mated in a fraternity house
where the two youths were lis
tening to Radio Havana on
short wave radio and heard re-
ports Of the United States
training troops to invade Cuba
The youths got off a letter
to the station saying such a
staging area was located at the
University Of Maryland. The
school has the largest Air Force
ROTC unit in the Nation with
over 1000 members, a school
official said.
Signed to the letter was the
name of a third youth described
as "a very serious student" In
formed of the letter, he re-
ported the incident to AFROTC
headquarters.
The only official university
comment came from Dean Bor-
reson in the following state
ment:
"One sophomore and one
junior student who had been
involved in prior disciplinary
difficulties were requested to
withdraw yesterday (Thurs-
day. from the university for
perpetrating a stupid prank:
Sending a letter to Radio Ha-
vana in the name of another
student. volunteering aid to
the Castro cause by designat-
ing the university campus as
an alleged staging area for an
invasion of Cuba"
A university official added
that the requested withdrawal
of the students amounts to a
suspension, rather than expul-
sion, and that the two may re-
apply for admission later.

Government
Role Stressed
In Welfare
BY CASPAR NAMES
Star Staff Writer

CLEVELAND. Oct. 28.-The
second national conference on
the churches and social well
fare has been told there should
be more rather than less use
OF government to meet the
Nations welfare needs.
The report to the final ses-
sion of the five-day confer
ence in Cleveland Auditorium
yesterday. attended by nearly
5000 social welfare specialists
in the churches, government
and secular agencies. declared
that government is, and can be
to an even greater degree than
it is presently, an instrument of
the community in meeting well
fare needs"
But while the statement
stressed that Americans should
make full use of their gov
eminent" in welfare situations,
it pointed out this ought to
be correlated with the obi
cations for personal acts of
charity and the discharge of
responsibility for welfare needs
through private agencies"
Serious Question
Since churches are a major
factor in welfare relief, Protes-
tant concern regarding how
much and whether government
grants might be accepted poses
serious question, the report
stated.
Deserving ProtestantS generally
have accepted help "pragmat-
ically in the welfare field" it
insisted these denominations
must re-examine their posi-
tions lin terms of its philo-
sophical and pragmatic i'm
plications."
If Professionals continue the
present practice, they must
examine what this means in
the light of their opposition to
government support of Sectar-
ian education, the statement
commended.
Asserting there is need for
further study on national. de-
nominational and local levels
to set forth policy positively
and clearly" the report in
sisted this determination
called for must be the task of
the churches as a whole and
not Just their welfare agen-
cies."

Religious Words

The Lutheran Witness oi
September S has added another
six words frequently used ir
religious discussions and ar.
ticleS, and once again hai
tested its readers as to theil
familiarity with their mean
ings.
The words selected are font
j ealous, angel. atonement
mammon and succor.
The publication gives the
reader three meanings for each
word, and then points out the
one closest to the proper def
milton.
Here are its answers.
/Font-water basin. The bow
or other receptacle for water
used at baptisms, as we'll as tht
stand on which it rests.
Jealous - all demanding
God calls Himself a Jealous
God because He demands all
honor and glory as His exclu-
sive right"
Angel - messenger of God
Angel is really the Greek word
for messenger and is certainly
very descriptive of one Of the
chief functions Of Gods pow
erful, heavenly task force"
Atonement - reconciliation
THE meaning Of atonement in
the theological sense comes
through most clearly when we
separate the word into its three
Syllables, at-one-ment."
Mammon-riches. "Mammon
is the Aramaic word for money
used by Jesus to personify the
god of materialism."
Succor-help. q. this Bibli-
cal word has a fine shade OF
meaning. to run to the aid OF
one in distress.
