which would give any college, church
related or otherwise, a $3.50 grant for
each Federal scholarship holder it had
in attendance, and a House version
which would provide grants and loans
to all colleges for the construction of
academic facilities. Both bills would
limit the construction of academic ia
cilities. Both bills would limit cor
struction money to facilities not used
for sectarian instruction.
Far from being intended to provide
grants to Catholic colleges, the bills,
Prouty noted, would benefit all aca-
demically qualified colleges and uni
versities, both public and private. Po-
tential beneficiaries would include 308
Catholic church-related colleges, AIS
Protestant church-related colleges and
numerous Jewish institutions.
PROUTY ALSO challenged Pear
sons statement that the majority of
the colleges wanting grants were Cath
Ollie and that the demand for grants
had come mainly from Catholic lead
ers.
Grants to both public and private
colleges" Prouty told the Senate,
"have been urged by the American
Council of Education, the American
Association of Colleges, and the
American Association of Land Grant
Colleges and State Universities.
'They know that the future of high
er education and the future of u
country depend upon both public and
private institutions of higher learning
because public colleges and universe
ties do not have adequate facilities and
personnel to educate all qualified col
lege students. In fact, of the 2,O40 col
leges and universities in this country,
only 721 are publicly supported"

are lay women dedicated to fostering
vacations to the religious life for wo-
men.
Delegates to the conference heard
20 speakers from the hierarchy,
clergy, religious and laity explain the
religious vocation for women and ask
for interest in this important work.
1t is often said that when you
want a thing done, get the women to
do It,"
WE WOULD think this apostle
late of the Theresians would be most
appealing to many women in the d.
Geese. We would think the purpose of
the organization could be incorporated
into the program of many of our or
CARNATIONS. We would think that pro-
grams on this subject can be included
for this year in any of our diocesan,
parochial or inter-parochial groups.
In view of what was said
here last week we commend this pro-
ject to the women of the Diocese of
Columbus. The future of the $40 COM
munities of religious women in the
United States will be affected by the
interest and zeal of our Catholic lay
women.
More. the future of many young
women may be directed along proper
paths, and most Importantly, the flu
ture of Gods Church will be enhanced
or limited by the kind of response this
kind of appeal receives.-GAF

THE YARDSTICK
Catholic social action comes OF age

Pope John XXI1I's encyclical, "Ma-
ter eft Magistra" christianity and So
cial Progress) is divided into four
parts. The fourth part calls for "The
Rebuilding OF a Social Order Based on
Truth, Justice and Love"
THE HOLY FATHER says very
emphatically in this section of the en-
cyclical that while Christian social ed
ucation as every level of learning is
an indispensable prerequisite to the
achievement of a sound social order
based on truth, justice and love, a
purely theoretical instruction in mans
social and economic obligations is in
adequate.
People must also be shown ways"
he points out, "in which they can
properly fulfill these obligations"
Practice makes perfect, he says, and
thus one learns Christian behavior in
social and economic matters by actual
Christian action in those fields.
1t follows, therefore, His Holiness
concludes, that "the Lay Apostolate
has an important role to play in social
education - especially those associa-
tions and organizations which have as
their specific objective the Christiani-
zation of contemporary society. The
members of these associations, besides
profiting personally from their own
day to day experience in this field, can
also help in the social education of the
rising generation by giving it the ben
eft of the experience they have gain
ed"
MOST INFORMED observers
would probably agree that the lay
apostolate in the United States is not
yet adequately fulfilling its proper
role in the field of social education
and social action. To analyze the rea-
sons for this would take us far afield,
and to wiring our hands about it in de-
spair would be a sure sign of imma-

that there were some 40-odd Federal
education programs involving grants
and loans, and that in every one of
them private colleges were afforded
the same treatment as public institu-
lions. Many of the Immigrant colleges
benefiting under the land-grant act
enacted 100 years ago were dominated
by a particular religious sect and some
of these still have a church relation
ship.
The Vermont Senator reminded his
colleagues that Pearson's column
made reference ito a meeting that ale
legedly took place between the Presi-
dent and the distinguished senior Sem
ator from Oregon (Wayne Morse)
during which President Kennedy sup
posedly requested the Senator from
Oregon to favor outright grants to
Catholic colleges"
Morse, who has favored a grant
program that would benefit all quali-
fled colleges and universities in the
construction of academic facilities,
took the floor to deny that IN such
request had been made to him by the
President.
THE SENIOR SENATOR from
Oregon" Morse told his colleagues,
wishes to make it clear that no such
statement was made to him by the
President of the United States"
The need of all colleges and univer.
sites, hard pressed by the ever
increasing number of young men and
women seeking a higher education,
is for financial help to expand their
facilities. But the extreme advocates
of complete separation of church and
state appear to be determined to de-
feat legislation to provide such aid if
Catholic colleges would be eligible for
grants or loans.

For twenty years the cause of vo-
cations to the priesthood has been the
purpose of the devoted Catholic men
who belong to Sierra International.
Their work has been blessed by God so
much that in the United States there
are over 200 clubs with more than TO-
900 members.
BUT WHAT ABOUT women and
religious life? Who will promote their
vocations and aid them as the Serrans
do for men?
Last week $500 lay women from
80 states gathered IN Pueblo, Colo, to
hear Bishop Charles A. Buswell's an
swer to those questions.
The Bishop said: "We apologize
for waiting so long to open the doors
of the Sisterhood Vocation Apostolate
to our country's Catholic lay women.
We realize that there can be no sue
cessful efforts in this work without
the zeal and the interest of the laity.
1t is illogical to think otherwise as the
history of the Church teaches us. The
appearance of the Theresians on the
American scene could we'll mark the
beginning of a bright future for VOC
tons to the Sisterhoods."

Thirteen valley residents completed the Bureau of Mines first aid class offered here last week. They include the follow ing:
 Hal Chance, Jeff Loberg, Larry Benton, George Sand land, Ray Rome, Floyd Had denham, L. P. Rorrison, Fran ces Plack, Jean Woods, Noel Woods, Paul Henry, Pat O'Con- nor, and Hugh Matheson.
 The 12-hour course of in struction which is similar to the American Red Cross first aid course, placed emphasis on artificial resperation, fractures and splinting, and general first aid treatment. It is hoped that an additional 30-hour course will be offered at a later date. Such a course would qualify those completing to acquire an instructors rating.
 Certificates and identifica- ton cards were presented those completing the recent course.

KlWANIANS HEAR CHARTER TALK

Members of the KiWanis Club of Palmer on Monday of this week learned of some of the functions provided in the pro- posed city charter.
 Speaking at the noon lunch con meeting were Ralph Moore, charter commission chairman and Bertram Duff, charter com mission member. The speakers were asked a number of ques- tions by the Kiwanians and some of the answers brought out that the speakers favor the city manager form of govern ment because the city is now handling about $250,000 a year. The men pointed out that with a city manager more efficient government would result. They added that under the present form of government no one person can give orders, that a full council decision is neces- sary.
 It was speculated that the salary of city manager would run from $10,000 to $12,0O0 a year. However, the charter commission members stated, they feel that much money would be saved, through more efficient government.

POTATOES

A quick study of potato pro- ducts indicates that very large percentage are used in potato chips.
 Potato chips were produced in Anchorage for number of years. A few years ago a crip- bling strike forced the com pany to curtai1 production. The equipment was eventually moved to Germany.
 It is probably feasible at the present time to establish a po- tato chip plant in District ', Palmer, Wasilla, Talkeetna are0.
 Other products such as po- tato flour, dehydrated potatoes, quick frozen French fries could also be produced.
 Personally l think there is a desperate need for a GOOD TV dinner including potatoes.
 Culls and peelings could be reduced for stock feed or fer mented into ethel alcohol, com mon beverage or industrial al cohol.

TO A SON By Jokn Marshall

As I stand beside your crib tonight Thoughts and plans and dreams fill my mind. Plans and dreams, yes! and purpose and vision bright. Strange how my thoughts you seem to bind. You stir in me the best Little son of mine. Tonight, it seems as though nayi Pm sure. Straight from heaven above, God gave you to me. Innocent-made in His own image and pure He gave you to me because you need me
 And I need you too Little son of mine. Unworthy, unclean, helpless! I cry on pended knee "Oh Godl this life which you've trusted me with today Is too pure, too tender, too much like Thee" I tremble lest I crush 1t in my fumbling way. God watch over you Little son of mine.
 ". But the God who gives, does not go away The road He knows-it is for me but to follow. And thus to let Him have his way today And thru all the years which shall follow That is my prayer Little son of mine.
 V I shall not insist that great success is your due. That is-as men count success in this land. I ask that to God above you may always be true That for what is right you shall always stand. That is my prayer Little son of mine.
 VI. I need you to plan for-quiet- ly though sometimes aloud. And when someday in the fray you stand And having done all - yet stand, scared but unbowed I'll know then that you've be- come a man. And I'll be proud Little son of mine.
