School Aid
Code Set UD
By Catholics

BUFFALO, N. Y, April &
(AP).-The American Catholic
Philosophical Association has
adopted a resolution of prin-
cipleS concerning Federal aid
to education.
The measure, adopted at the
closing session of its 35th an
nual convention yesterday, said
the question of Federal aid to
education should be governed
by sound principles"
The sound principles" out
lined in the resolution included: {:
THE requirement of dis
tributive justice.
THE priority of parental
right over governmental right
in the choice of the form of
education.
"The distinction between a
right possessed and a right
exercised, and
THE meaninglessneSs of a
right which is imperative be-
cause of an inequitable distri-
button of common funds"
The association voted to send
copies of the measure to Pres
ident Kennedy and Congress.
Another measure which pro-
voked sharp debate, and later
was declared equivalent in
content failed to reach a vote.
1t said that IF the Federal
Government chooses to allocate
public funds as an aid to edu-
cation it must, in justice, do
so without discrimination"
Conflicting reports had the
resolution withdrawn and later
adopted, but the Rev. Carl
Grindel, C.M., who was ad-
vanced to the post of associa-
ton president, said neither
case was true. He said the
motion "just never was voted
on"
Father Grindel is chairman
of philosophy at st. Johns
University. New York.

who are trying to lure youth
away from Christ.
I'm doing this we are not
trying to substitute slick sales
manship for Gods grace" he
said. We are simply condition
ing the human instruments and
letting grace flow through
every human means"
Father Poage said the Fran
ciscan Fathers OF Santa Bar
bara Province in California de-
cided to use the technique of
professional persuaders and
stress one key favorable factor
in their 1860 recruiting cam
paign. The enrolment of
SeminarianS in their province
during that year showed an in
crease of 146 new students, he
said.
The need for more Catholic
leaders in the secular world
as we'll as -, religious world
was the Su. ject of another
speaker, the Rev. Thomas J.
Costello, superintendent of
schools III lie diocese of Syra-
cuse, N. Y, declared
He called on Catholic edu-
Gators to instill in talented
graduates "a glowing ambi-
ton to become distinguished in
difficult callings, and to use
that distinction not only for
the benefit for mankind, but
also for the glory of God"

at the 59th annual convention
of the National Catholic Edu-
cational Association. He said
the recruiters should stress the
high status of priests and
others in religious vocationS.
This type OF approach, I
know, is sometimes severely
criticized" he said. 1T seems
to be dishonest.
Unfortunately this is due to
confusing the means with the
end to be attained. Subcon-
scious motivation is merely a
means, a human technique. 1t
is good when used for good;
evil when used for evil"
Father Poage said there is
no sound reason for not using
the same techniqueS as those

Whof Price a Bride?

SALISBURY, Southern Rhodesia
(AP) Although more Africans are
now contracting Christian marria-
ges many African brides still in
sist on payment of lobola bride
price, by the husband as an "act OF
good faith" and some insurance a
gainst early desertion.
Many brides feel that a wedding
is not complete If lobola is not paid
to their parents, spokesman for
the Southern Rhodesia Native At
fairs Department reports. The aver
age of this fee ranges from $S4 to
500.
In the old days lobola usually
was paid in cattle, nowadays in
money.
Some African women say they
must have lobola as a sort of tribal
recognition that is right and prop
er. says the Spokesman. They feel
that without it their husbands can
throw them over easily"
The safeguards also apply to the
husband if his wife does not bear
him a son to carry on the tribal
name. If a wife in the rural areas
does not bear a son it often happ-
ems that the man will ask for a
return of all or part of the lobola.
He might ask also for his wife's
sister so son can be born.

pectedly long holiday for lot of
people. Good breaks in the weather

the excellence of the overall pic
ture.
From all accounts, the visitors
who crowded our resort area to
celebrate the GLORIOUS Fourth"
also turned out to be good spend
ers. Both landlords and merchants
say they liked what they saw. And
by Monday afternoon bankers, too
were becoming enthusiastic over
long lines of depositors at their
tellers' windows. Vacancy signs for
all kinds of accommodations disap-
peared very early in the weekend
Restaurants were in business again
in a big way. Cash registers jingled
merrily in boardwalk gift shops and
on amusement piers. Swimming
pools, golf courses, in fact all sorts
of recreational facilities at shore
and mountain resorts. came in for
full share of vacationers' patronage.
To be sure, one such weekend
does not necessarily set the pattern
for a season. But this first big one
of the summer seems to have gone
long way toward reinforcing the
high degree of optimism our resort
people have been expressing right
along.

have passed. Cottages are a more
important factor this year. How
ever, most of them are built for an
ever-growing number of permanent
residents and will add little to a
resorts vacationing facilities. Most
landlords view this as healthy de-
velopment. Much the same situa-
ton prevails in the Pocono noun
tain resorts. where large part OF
this seasons activity covers cottage
and cabin building for owner oecu-
pany. The area around Lake Wall
enpaupack seems to be experience
ing the greatest expansion of this
sort.
Renovation work helps the con-
structi0n total
Some hotels, and even few OF
the newer motels, are said to be
making more extensive renovations
this year. Swimming pool construc-
ton, especially indoor facilities,
seems TO account for most of this
work. The idea of making "all
weather" pools is not brand new;
but ii seems to have really caught
on this year. The purpose, to be
sure, is TO provide a popular rec
reation for guests during Indictment
weather and so discourage them
from packing up for home when
ever the sun disappears or the
north winds blow. There has been
considerably more of this activity
in Pocono mountain resorts than
in seashore areas.
A full seasons predictions are
CLANCY
At this point in the season, pre-
dictions of a record or near-record
volume of business are generally
made with fingers crossed. For one
thing, long range weather forecasts
have a bad habit of straying off
the beam. So, the present prospect
of warm and reasonably dry July
and August must be taken with a
grain of salt. What actually happ-
ems could make or break this re-
sort season. Moreover, come rain
or shine. the spending patterns of

Nevertheless. resort people in the
Philadelphia Federal Reserve Dis
trict ar optimistic-maybe even a
little more so than in some other
years. On the basis of what they
have seen so far. the consensus
clearly indicates that another ex-
cellent season is beginning to shape
up. Some have ventured the opin-
ion that 1861 resort business may
rank among the best experienced in
recent years. Continuing improve
ment in this areas overall econo-
mic picture lends support to this
view. Good breaks in the weather
