Although their record is far from perfect. bv
exporting their system of law and government
tney have produced free nations with govern

governments of the earth These countries

some OF these nations had to fight the British
Tor their freedom, their capability to under.

other nations inherited from other cultures
prove this point
FHA-l suppose the people who live
under free governments are appreciative Of
their heritage.
SHA-lncredtable as it may seem, many
are not. In the United States the laws and
government inherited from England were
transformed into the finest government on
earth The founders of this nation had the

wrote Constitution and ten amendments
which separated religion and government.
They even went SO far as to leave the name
OF the Boss out of this document because they
knew evil men might use it as a device for
tyranny in His name
FHA-Then it's not really religion or
dedication to the Boss that makes the trouble,
put the tendencies of men to use His name
to obtain power or profit.
SHA-Thats right. One would think
they would have learned from history and
the experience of America where religion of
every kind has flourished with a minimum
of friction, but apparently not. If some of
them have their way, they will go back in
history and repeat the whole thing over
again.

The fine Sentinel editorial on
the Supreme Court decision in
the Torcaso case left out one
important point. How was it
possible for so many people in
this Nation in the year 1860 to
support the Maryland require
ment of a belief in God for not
airy publics, jurors, and wit
nesses? If the Torcaso case rep
resented some obscure point of
law within only the ken of bril-
liant lawyers, such support
would be understandable. Any
one who will take the trouble to
read the PHILOSOPHERS of the men
responsible for the freedom of
religion clauses of our Consti-
tuition, the most prominent be-
ing Jefferson and Madison. will
clearly see the Maryland law
was out of date.
If one will take the trouble
to read through back issues OF
the Sentinel and the Washing
ton newspapers, he will find a
surprising and alarming array
of support in letters to the edi-
tor for this religious require
ment.
Do our public and private
schools teach tine principle of
separation of church and state?
Do the religious denominations,
to whom this principle is so inn
portant, teach this vital message
Of freedom in their Sunday
Schools and sermons?
Have we as a Nation moved
so far away from our founding
fathers ideas of freedom that
we are unable to comprehend
them? Did those who supported
this out-moded law. Just drift
into this position or is there
real campaign on in the U. S.
against this provision Of our
Constitution? If such a cam
paign exists, no doubt the Su.
preme Court will be roundly at
tackled for it's decision in this
case.
Americans would do well to
reexamine their PHILOSOPHERS on
this point and to be sure that
their children are being proper
ly taught in our schools, both
public and private, the impor-
lance of the principle of separa-
ton of church and state, and the
reason for its existence.

Kimble Hears Angels, Too

In reply to Mr.. Welsh's column on the
conversation between two angels, would
also like to report an imaginary conversation
between two angels.
First Heavenly Angel (FEIA)-One would
think that those strange creatures called
Man who live on the beautiful planet Earth
would be required to believe in the Boss And
yet you tell me that the highest judicial body
in one nation has declared that the right to
disbelieve in Him is as important as the
right to believe in Him. Why is that?
Second Heavenly Angel (SHA)-To under.
stand that, you must know something of the
history of that planet and the nation you
mentioned. The Boss gave these creatures
intelligence and conscience with which to
think and govern their conduct But many
men are not content to live by and preach
His teachings as they understand them with
their Bossgiven intelligence They insist on
setting their own little minds UP as under.
standing all the Boss wants and trying to
force their ideas down the t1roats of others
by coercion. This is, of course, an affront to
the Boss because it is an affront to the intel.
igence that He has given all men.
FHA-Couldn't the Boss designate one
man with His authority.
FHA-Can't the Boss make them all think
alike or help them in some way
SHA-Man has proved time and time
again that he cannot be trusted with the
absolute authority of the Boss. Every time
man has cloaked himself with the authority
of the Boss tyranny has resulted Govern
ment in the name of the Boss is called the
ocracy there and every theocracy on earth
has resulted in tyranny Man has burned,
prosecuted, tortured, and mistreated his fell
low human beings in every conceivable way
in the name of the Boss.
SHAH the Boss had wanted them to all
think alike, he wouldn't have given them INTEL
ligence and individuality but made them into
dumb animals
He has tried to help them. Many years
ago he sent great storm to destroy great
Armada Of ships which was sailing to attack
the country of England. The English were
then able to defeat their enemy and export

Fencing Of Pools

The past Tuesday the Mont
gomery County Council voted
down a proposed ordinance re-
quiring all swimming pools be
fenced.
David L. Cahoon, Councilman,
is quoted in The Washington
Daily News of Wednesday, June
81, 1861, as saying, pool owners
III the county are providing ade.
quate protection" | would in
vite Councilman Cahoon to the
subdivision of Meadowbrook Es-
tates, Germantown, to see for
himself that among some 40
homes built on lots ranging
from only 100 to $50 feet wide
there are four unfenced swim
ming pools There are other
cases throughout the county. In
all fairness. l feel that pool own.
ers on large estates should not
be required to erect a fence, but
how about the family with tod.
dlers and an unprotected pool
next door some 80 to 40 feet
from his door?
If a survey were conducted
among pool owners, l feel sure
it would be found the majority
have fences because they feel it
necessary. Then why does the
Council feel law is not neces-
sary? A law to protect our chill
dren from the minority who can
spend from $1,000 up for a pool
plus a sizeable amount for main
tenance but cannot spend one
tenth that amount for protec-
ton.
Councilman Frosh pointed out
statistics presented to the Coun-
call last winter showed only two
drownings in private pools in
the past ten years. Now Mr..
Frosh, can you really be imply
ing that two drownings are not
too much? That If we maintain
the present rate, and how can
we when the number of pools
are on the increase, two more IN
the next ten years are not too
many?
An ordinance requiring a
fence is drastically needed TIE
Council need not fear being a
pioneer on this issue. On the
contrary, very few places are
without one. Just in this area
we find Fairfax County requires
a fence at least three feet high;
Arlington, four foot fences; the
District Of Columbia, five foot
fences and Prince Georges Coun.
.ty last year made six foot fences
compulsory.
Hooray for councilwoman
Stella B. Werner and council
president William F. Hickey,
who voted for the measured!
