JOSEPH BREIG
A Great Prop Job

THIS IS SEEN, for ex-
ample, in the attitude which
causes many people, almost
by reflex action, to oppose the
most moderate measure which
might help any young Ameri-
can to go to a school or col
lege which includes religion
and theology in its curricu-
lum. These folks seem COM
pulsively driven to back up
every proposal which makes
the position of religious
schools, or of any religious
influence in public schools,
more difficult.
They cry unconstitutional"
when it is suggested that
something might be done to
help their pupils to become
informed about the religious
beliefs and traditions Of their
parents.
1t is not that there are no
constitutional ways of doing
this; it is only that so many
people react emotionally
against the idea. They decline
to consider it; they push it
away, willynilly, from their
minds.
/ DO NOT BELIEVE that
Protestants and Jews of this
sort do not care about reli-
gion, or that they want their
youngsters to grow up educat-
ed in everything else, but I'M
educated in things spiritual
and moral. Yet, that is going
to be the result if the pres
ent doctrinaire, splinter-pick-
ing, niggIing interpretations
of the Constitution continue
to hold captive the minds of
SO many.
1t is simply not true, as
some blandly assure us that
"the church and the home can
do the job" of religious edu-
cation Most parents are no
better qualified to teach reli-
gion, in any mature sense,
then they are qualified to
teach history or mathematics;
and anyhow they will not take
the time and trouble, even if
they are qualified. And Sun
day schools are not an ade-
quate substitute for daily, sys-
tematic religious teaching.
1t seems to me high time
that Jewish and Protestant
leaders should do some seri-
Gus thinking about the ques-
ton whether they have not
been led by POAU into work
ing against their own real in
terests, and those of their
children.

their own convictions, are
spending considerable sums
to send their children to pa.
rochial or private schools.
THEREFORE, l would pro-
pose that federal aid to edu-
cation be limited only to the
public schools but that those
parents who send their chill
dren to non-public schools re.
ceive a federal income tax re-
duction equal to the amount
per child of the federal sub

IT HAS COME to the point
where those who say that the
younger generation should not
grow up religiously illiterate
are considered family disrepu-

generation must carry on the
struggle to defend human
rights - God-given human
rights-against the devouring
godlessness of the Kremlin.
What is truly astounding is
that a great many Protestants
and Jews, in all good faith
but not realizing the conse-

the campaign for religious IL

area, according to the company.
ARC plans to use radioactive
materials in several broad ap-
pIieations. One will put isotopeS
to work as tracers ito show
scientists, for example, which
part of solid fuel molecules
burn first in a rocket.
Another will be experiments
on the waste products in atomic
seactors. to find new uses for
materials that now are con-
Sidered mere disposal problems.
A third will be radiation
studies associated with ARCS
probe rockets. Such rockets
may pass through the Van
Allen belt of radiation high
above earth. The effect of
radiation on materials inside
such rockets still poses riddles
for scientists. The laboratory
may provide answers under con-
trolled conditions.
Got Acc License Friday
ARC received it's license to
operate the laboratory from
the Atomic Energy Commits
sion last Friday.
The facility consists of two
areas. One is a cave where
three foot-thick cement walls
will shield scientists from the
radioactive materials. Here
they will handle the product
at. a distance by means of
manipulators, peering through
thick windows. The fisSion
products will be stored inside
pipes extending to an adjacent
earth hillside.
The other area is set up to
accommodate work on mildly
radioactive quantities such as
the tracer particles.
This room will include chem
ical testing equipment. shielded
work benches, and a complete
laundry room with automatic
washer and dryer for workmens
clothing.
To collect any stray radioac-
tive particles, the clothes will
be washed and the waste water
will be collected in special tanks,
according to Mr.. Markets, where
all contaminants will be re-
moved.
