where the President would 60
to church or the time or
whether reporters who have
covered his church going had
interfered with his worship.
Mr.. Salinger said there was
no implication one way or an
other In the new policy.
The President usually goes
to church at Holy Trinity IN
Georgetown. Usually. there has
been o sizeable gathering Of
people in front Of the church
when he arrived. despite the
fact that reporters have written
nothing shout his plans.
"The President, " Mr.. Salingel
said. "just hopes he can go to
church quietly"
Mr.. Salinger said it was the
President and not the Secret
Service who was responsible
for banning any prior an
lnouncements.
Except when he went to the
annual Red Mass at st. Mat.
thew's Cathedral three weeks
aRO. there has been no public
announcement d when or where
the President would go X
church.
Newsmen who were told con-
lfidentially about the President's

ence yesterday.
"The skills required by Q
modern industrial State cannot

the former president Of the

"We need Q first-rate school
system primarily because
it makes for competency and Q

Individual"
Mr.. Darden was principal
speaker at the college founders
day and 166th anniversary
ceremonies.
Mr.. Darden said the year
1919, when Negroes were first
brought to the American coll
onies, was the start Of an un-
stable and unhealthy regional
ism which many years later
was to explode In the dreadful
and costly conflict Of 1891"
The first Negroes, he said.
were brought in as indentured
servants, not salves. The de-
cision to switch to slavery hurt
not only the Negroes but free
men and indentured servants
by limiting their opportunities
for advancement and employ
ment, he said.
The introduction Of slavery
in the South, he said. was
costly beyond calculation both
morally and economically"

DR.. James E. Perkins, managing
director of the National Tuber-

today with a Rockefeller Foun-

The report held that such

programs and financing.
DR.. Robert H. Hamlin. as

health administration, directed
the study.
DR.. Perkins, immediate past

DR.. Hamlin has Jumped to-

agencies although they are
necessarily quite different"

the report" DR.. Perkins said
in a statement, because it
gives short shrift to the current

mended by DR.. Hamlin."
