had such great power that all
the nations Of the world trem-
bled before him. Hitler so cruelty
made his mark that the wounds
have not healed to this day.
The lives Of these men testify to
the power Of single individuals.
You and l working with Christ
can change the world! Even as
He brought healing, love, under
standing, and freedom from the
chains of sin and tradition, we
can change the world we live
in today for the better.
Christ said to His followers:
He that believeth on me, the
works that | do shall he do also;
and greater works than these
shall he do 800"
Perhaps you have thought
that what you do has no effect
on the world, but your actions
and attitudes are important.
What you are affects your COM
munity, your church, your town,
your social contacts and, above
all, your family. You have a
personal contribution to make
an important one. It could
win the lost to Christ.
As you use your actions and
influence to work for the king
dom of Cod, an amazing thing
will happen to you. You will
experience abundant life.
You can change the world!

Christ Episcopal Church and the
Elizabeth City Kiwanis Club.
Mr.. Hurdle was owner of the
House of Hurdles, an Elizabeth

so miserable as that of the past
weekend.
There is not much fun in being in
too large a crowd, as the inaugural
ball, which grew so large that it
split in five sections, and President
and his cabinet paid visits to all of
them, four being held in various
hotels. Mrs. Kennedy went home
after attending only three of them,
1t is of interest that Dolly Madi-
son, wife of James Madison at
tended the first inaugural bali held
in Longs Hotel, $50 years ago, and
it was so crowded that windows
were smashed to give ventilation.
1t perhaps was not cold day
when William Henry Harrison was
inaugurated; he spoke for an hour
and three quarters, over 5000
words, while George Washington's
second inaugural address consisted
of only 1876 words. Pageantry was
not introduced into the ceremonies
until Martin Van Buren, came int
loffice.

COAST GUARD WARNS OF
USING IMPROPER NUMBERS

WASHINGTON, D. C. = Many
mOtorboats are displaying identifi-
cation numbers of the wrong size
type or color contrast, according
10 an announcement by Admiral
Alfred C. Richmond, Commandant
u. S. Coast Guard.
Admiral Richmond pointed out
that Federal numbering regula-
tions have, since 1918, required
that boat Identification numbers
must be at least three inches high,
block character of good proper
ton, and of color that contrasts
with the background color to which
they are affixed so that they can
be seen and read easily. The pur-
pose of both the Federal Boating
Act of 1868 and the regulations
promulgated Hereunder is to pro-
vide ready Identification of the
boat. The regulations place the
responsibility for meeting these
requirements upon the boat owner.
Obtaining proper contrast is the
principal problem facing both the
State and Coast Guard law en-
forcement officers. This problem, to
n great extent, has been brought
about by owners affixing to their
boats numbers of two or more col
Ors having a primary color, such
as white, bordered or outlined with
another color, such as black. When
such a number, of the proper size
and shape, is affixed to dark
background, the contrast of the
primary color and the dark back
ground will provide the required
legibility. However, when affixed
to a light background, the primary
color, white, will blend in with the
background color and the narrow
black border in itself fails to pro-
vide the required legibility.
In addition, the number must be
located on each side of the for
ward half of the boat as near the
stem ,.as practicable, and where it
can best be seen. Furthermore, be-
tween each part of the number
there must be a hyphen or space.
For example: .'NJ-1234-AA" or
mi 1884 AA". This separation
of prefix and suffix from the
numerals improves reliability.
Only those numbers assigned by
the Coast Guard or a State in ac-
cordance with the Federal Boat
ing Act of 1858 are to be display
ed on the bow of any boat which
is being used on the navigable
waters of the United States.
In conclusion, the Admiral indi-
Gated that some numbers have been
advertised as "Coast Guard APP
proved" This is misleading as the
Coast Guard does not grant spe-
cilc approval for products of this
tYDe.

No Sunday Shopping

The Greater Columbus Sunday Association has
asked pastors Of all denominations to speak to their
congregations this Sunday on violations of the Lords
Day with special reference to Sunday shopping.
WE ARE PLEASED to add our voice to the cause
by urging our readers, as we did in an editorial on
August ID, to refrain from shopping on Sunday and to
refuse to patronize those stores which have no re-
gard for the meaning OF this holy day.
Last week a letter to a Columbus newspaper
lamented the participation of Churches in this cam
palgn saying we are being used by commercial inter
ests to eliminate competition. This is not true. The
Association promoting the campaign is mOtivated by
business and social reasons, TO be sure, but Catho-
lies, especially, will not shop on Sunday for religious
reasons.
WE KNOW THAT WE may not shop on Sunday,
any more than we can conduct business on Sunday
or work on Sunday except in cases of real necessity in
those services which contribute TO tn public good. The
law of Ohio is explicit as to what contributes to the
public good so We need not seek for other, legal guide
posts.
This is not a slight matter, it is serious. Serious
enough for our Holy Father Pope John XIII. to say
IN his recent e~ncycical Mater OF Magistra: 'But we
note with deep sorrow, and cannot but reprove the
many who, though they perhaps do not deliberately
desplse this holy law, yet more and more frequently
disregard 1t. Whence 1t is that our very dear working
men almost necessarily suffer harm, both as to the
salvation of their souls and to the health of their
bodies"
THIS IS NOT A USIN leader speaking, ii is
the spiritual head of ChriStendom who saws: "The
Catholic Church has decreed for many centuries that
Christians observe this day of rest on Sunday and
so taking into account the needs of soul and body, we
exhort, as it were, with the words of God Himself. all
men, whether public officials or representatives of
management and labor, that they observe this COM
mand of God Himself and of the Catholic Church. and
Judge in their souls that they have responsibility
to God and society in this regard"
Needless to say, the Pope's words also refer to
worship of God, relaxation, fostering of family unity
and community interests. But it is important to note
that unnecessary Sunday shopping is excluded by his
admonidon. Can any Catholic ignore the authentic
teaching OF the Vicar of ~Christ?-CAF

Sum and Substance:
A Devils Advice
On Church And State
by Fr. John B. Sheerin, esp.

serve separation of church
and state is to refer all con-
t%roversieS on the subject to
the US. Supreme Court.
Why is Calm so distrustful
of the Supreme Court? Be-
cause he feels that it tends to
get begged down in illegal
ism" On church-state issues.
Due to old precedentS. the
high court may fatty decline
to rule on some of these is
sues. "Mephistop h Ii has
had too rich an experience
with lawyers to depend entire
ly on any technicality of law
he knows that what one
lawyer may knit, another law
yer may find a way to UNI
ravel."
THIS is A SURPRISING
stand On the part of Calm. In
his book The Moral Decision,
published in 1855, Calm was
more optimistic about our
courts. He even went so far
as to say that a set Of moral
guides could be found in the
day-by-day decisions of Amer
lean courts, now that "ecclesi-
astical pronounce m e n t S are
considered unauthoritattive."
In the Harper's article he
puts his trust In the people
rather than in our Courts.
But how in the world can he
expect the people to decide
complex questions arising out
of the First Amendment? By
a referendum? BY a Gallup
poll?

gestion is that church mem

Our SIsISSa
EDITORIAL
Church and State

The November issue of Harper's Magazine carries
an article titled How To Destroy the Churches" by
Edmond Calm. It's thesis is that both ecclesiastical and
political freedom will be destroyed If federal loans or
grants are made to church-related schools, Sunday
closing ordinances are enforced, and prayers and
Christmas obseryances are allowed in unsupported
schools.
H ARTICLE CONTAINS a timely warning that
the churches should be vigilant lest they exchange in
dependence and freedom for material aid.
But Mr.. Calm goes to extremes when he says that
such things will be preserved only with absolute and
complete separation between church and state. He
quotes Elihu Root in favor of his position and cites
the decision of the Supreme Court in the Eyerson case
of 1947.
HE PRUDENTLY AVOIDS however, quoting the
Zorach case of 1852 which said: "The first amendment
does not say that in every and all respects there shall
be a separation of Church and State. Rather, it stu
diously defines the manner, the specific ways, in
which there shall be no concert or union or dependency
one on the other. That is the common sense of the
matter"
The Zorach statement is confirmed by the histori-
cal record of cooperation between church and state
In this country. There was cooperation from the be-
ginning and it has continued to our day as is evident
from a study Of American legislation, Supreme Court
decisions, and our national education system.
EVEN JOHN DEWEY, no friend of religious de-
nominations, wrote in his book Characters and
Events: Doubtless many Of our ancestors would have
been somewhat shocked to realize the full logic Of their
own attitude with respect to the subordination of
churches to the state - falsely termed the separation
Of church and state"
Indeed history confirms the principle that a com.
plete separation of religion and the state would re-
move the moral basis of human authority and prove
destructive of the structure of civil society.
UNION OF CHURCH and state is not desirable,
but cooperation of church and state has always been
the American Way.-GAF
