| The deaths were attributed
to the OAS, the French
underground which opposes
Algerian independence as
proposed by President
Charles de Gaulle.
The dead were David Ter
matt, 81, president of the
Jewish Community of Setif,
a provincial city of about
$4,000 population; and DR..
Joseph Cohen, 80, a we'll
known Algiers physician.
The injured man, who is in
serious condition after hav-
ing been shot through the
neck, is Yossef Perez, war
den of the synagogue in the
Casbah at Algiers.
The shooting of Mr.. Perez
was attributed to the fact
that, recently, he had refused
to turn over his apartment
to a Moslem who had in
sisted on taking over the
Perez home. But the attacks
against Mr.. Zermati and DR..
Cohen were laid to OAS ter
rorists. Mr.. Germ a tt was
known as an ardent Gaullist.
He had held high posts in
the Algerian Ministry of the
Interior and, for two terms,
served as president of the
Setif Bar Association. He
was shot in the back while
picking up his mail in the
Setif post office.
DR.. Cohen was not known
to be active in any political
movement, but was conSid-
cred a liberal. He was widely
known in Algiers particular
ly for his work among the
Moslem poor, whom he had
been serving since his gradu-
alton from medical school.
During last week, at least
20 plastic bombs of so ex-
ploded in a single day were
aimed at Jewish shops in the
Bah El Oued district in AL
giers. The bombs were of a
type used both by the OAS
and by Algerian rebels.
The Jewish community, its
morale shaken by the recur-
rent attacks, is wondering
whether Nazi elements had
obtained control of the OAS,
although efforts have been
made of late by the OAS to
enlist the sympathies of
Jewish residents in Algeria.
DR.. A. Zaffran, a member
of the administrative council
of the Zionist Federation in
Algeria, made hasty plans to
leave the country after re-
ceiving murder threats from
the OAS. DR.. Zaffran was a
close friend of Police Com
missioner Goldenberg who
was assasSinated recently.
The aggravation of the gen.
eral conditions in Algeria has
resulted in an increase of
Jewish emigration to France.

We're Confused

Suppose a Columbus resident who is being aided
by the County Welfare Department needs hospital
care.
SINCE WE HAVE NO community hospital the
patient may be taken to Mount Carmel, st. Anthony,
or Riverside Methodist Hospital. Public funds may be
paid to one of these hospitals to help defray the charg-
es incurred.
A similar situation arose in South Burlington,
Vermont, only it concerned schools. The South Bur
llngton School District has no public high school of
its own. The local school board cared for its high
school students by paying tuition for them to attend
public or ~parochial high schools outside the district.
A PROTESTANT TAXPAYER filed suit against
the board charging that his tax money was being
used IN an unconstitutional manner to support a
religion by paying tuition TO a Catholic school. Five
other Taxpayers, three of them parents of children
whose tuition at a Catholic school was being paid by
the school district, entered the case on the school
boards side.
The Court of Chancery of Chittenden County.
W, held the tuition payment system to be unconstitu-
tional on February 10, 1860.
The Vermont Supreme Court upheld this ruling
last January.
BOTH SIDES OF THE CASE asked the US. SUI.
preme Court to consider the ruling.
Last week the US Supreme Court refused to re-
view the lower courts ruling and thus in practice the
previous decision stands.
WHAT PUZZLES US Is that public funds can be
pald church-related institutions for a valid public
welfare purpose such as medical care, but they can
not he given for education. The courts apparently
feel such payment does not establish a religion" if
IL is gwen to q churchrun hospital, but it does "es-

Our Opinion
EDITORIALS
Memorial Day

Next Tuesday we observe Memorial Day. II dates
back to The Civil War when women of the South
placed flowers on the graves of their dead ones each
year. Union dead were similarly honored each May 30,
beginning in 1868.
CATHOLIC CITIZENS HAVE a special way of
honoring those who have fallen in the service of our
country. Catholics can offer the Sacrifice of the Mass
with the priest for the souls of our war dead.
This priest of whom we speak is of course, Our
Lord Himself, who is the one true High Priest. Christ
not only offered the perfect sacrifice en- Calvary and
continues it through the Mass, but He is the victim
as we'll.
AS OUCH HE is THE perfect inspiration for
Memorial Day. He died for others, as did our soldiers.
He gave purpose and dignity to that death when He
said: Greater love than this, no man hath, that a man
lay down mis- life for his friends"
On our affairs, May 80, Christs brother priests,
His Instruments will offer the great Sacrifice in, by,
and through their Divine Master.
ALL OF US SHOULD join with Him and them
in praying for those who have given all in the service
of country. This year it is fitting that five new priests
will join the others in making this years Memorial
Day more meaningful than ever. CAT.
