dreamed it would be.

I watch movies" Kelvin ex-
plains, enumerating the schools

The bus ride is proof positive
to Kelvin of his school-boy
status. He boards it near his
home at 1904 South Twenty

rides to Blessed Sacrament
School in Alexandria.
After school, Kelvin plays as
hard as his 4-year-old sister,
Sharon, or any other Of the
scores of children on the block.
When he remembers, he takes
time out to feed his turtle,
Beauregarde, which lives in o

Boy is Afflicted
This happy progress through
a normal childhood is a special
source of Joy to Kevin's parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. Ronald J. Cauley.
For Kelvin has cystic fibrosis,
a major killer of children.
The National Cystic Fibrosis
Research Foundation estimates
that one in every 1000 Ameri-
can babies is born with the
disease. A child with "CF" is
born every two and a half hours
around the clock and half die
before they are 5 years old.
Fortunately, Kevin's illness
appears to be under control, +
and his doctors and parents
have every expection that he
will continue to do we'll.
Early diagnosis played a part.

Letter Reveals Tribute to Bee by Union General

100 years ago this Friday, Gen.
Bee rallied his men by shouting:
Look at Jackson, standing
there like a stone WALL"
The accolade stuck.
Gen. Bee then led his men in an
advance that helped upset the
Union plan Of battle. He was
mortally wounded.
After the war Mai. Gen.
William Farrar Smith Of Vermont.
a fellow member of the class of
1845, wrote this hitherto unpub-
lished tribute to his friend, un-
covered recently and scheduled
to be presented, along with other
Smith papers, to the Library Of
Congress:
The recollections of the in
innate friendships which I formed
in my military life, now that most
all Of my contemporaries have
gone to the other world. are as
dear to me as when they were in
active existence. OF some of these
I must speak individually.
The first and dearest one Of
my life was a clasSmate of mine,
Barnard E. Bee, Of South Caro-
lint. Between us, from our life
at West Point to the day of his
death, there was ever a perfect
confidence and faith in every
question that ever rose, up to the
breaking out of the Civil War.
There was never any hesitation
on the part of either as to sup

porting the other without asking
as to the merits of the cause. He
was a noted man among all his
associates: possessed of the finest
moral and physical courage of any
man with whom I was ever
thrown.
Captured Desperodo
He belonged to the Third In
fantry Of the United States Army,
which was stationed in San An
tonic, Tex, 184S. where I. a young
engineer officer, was on duty with
the headquarters of the army
stationed there.
A noted desperate named Clan
ton, had wantonly killed a soldier
of the Third Infantry, and the
Civil Authorities of the town were
afraid to arrest Glanton for
murder. Bee went to the Sheriff
and told him that if he would
make him a deputy that he would
make the arrest and bring the
prisoner before him.
The Sheriff acceded to his re-
quest, and he went and unarmed,
by his exhibition of moral power
took Glanton and delivered him
up to the Sheriff. The man was
tried, and of course, by jury con-
vened in those days was acquitted.
This, however, did not detract
from the merit of the act of Bee.
Fought at Bull Run
Shortly before the Civil War
broke out Bee, who was stationed
in Utah, wrote a letter to me in
which he stated that a civil war
was being brought on by the poll
ticians on both sides, that they

lands and entire continents who
are paid wages that condemn
them and their families to sub
human conditions of life" the
encyclical said.
The document included these
major items:
. An appeal to advanced nations
and communities to give aid to
underdeveloped areas.
. Acceptance of socialization and
social welfare programs so long as
private property and private initi-
ative are not destroyed.
. A suggestion to raise capital
investments in the agricultural
sector of the economy, and adjust
wages to insure sufficient incomes.
. Approval Of the cooperative
movement in agriculture, espe-
cially in the underdeveloped areas.
Although the encyclical, pri-
marily, is a social document, its
political views are implicit. It
reaffirms the Church's anti-Com-
muniSt stand and will, therefore,
be welcomed by non-Communist
countries struggling to solve their
problems without a revolution.
1t may also help line up ad-
ditional public support for Presi-
dent Kennedy's foreign aid pro-
grams, such as the Alliance for
Progress, whose goal is to raise
the standard of living in Latin
America.

living quietly today at his Gettys-

spending some $50 billion to $40
billion in the next five years in an
effort to send a man to the moon.
Why Go to Moon?
Gen. Eisenhower says he cannot
imagine a greater sheer waste of
money. There are too many things
to do on earth before exploring
the moon. If trip is going to be
made to the moon some day, it
should come about gradually and
naturally as a result of other ac-
complishmentS. It should be a by
product, and not an objective.
The former President believes it
is permissible to provide Federal
aid such as school lunches and bus
transportation for children going
to private schools, but wrong to
use public funds to build private
schools for what he calls partisan
religious purposes.
At the same time, he thinks the
laws should allow some general
religious instruction in the pub
lie schools, at least about the his
story Of religions and what they
have done in the world. He says
this Nation was founded for re-
ligious freedom and religious wor-
ship, and that it is wrong to deny
that our society is founded clearly
on a religious base.
He feels Mr.. Kennedy has been
the victim of some poor staff
work. Insofar as he can see, the
White House lacks an effective
organization for studying and an
alyzing the important problems of
Government, and a proper staff
for seeing that decisions of the
President are carried out. But ex-
perience of the last several
months, he hopes, may lead to a
correction of this situation.
