report to Governor Elmer
Andersen)
A recent editorial in the st. Paul
Recorder and Minneapolis Spokes-
man comments on metropolitan
transit problems. Three major
points are discussed. First, the
editorial discusses use of freeway
facilities by buses and, in effect,
accuses the Minnesota Highway
Department and other agencies of
total disregard" of this consider
alton. Second, the editorial COM
ments upon the decline of mass
transit, and third, strongly sup
ports the formation Of a Metropol-
itan Transit Authority. This MEM
orandum discusses the three points
in the above order.

prayer edict to further their at
lacks upon the high tribunal.
Rep. George Andrews d., Ala
said, They put the Negroes in the
schools and now they've driven
God out of them"
Rep. Dale Afford d., Ark, a
candidate for governor of Arkan-
sas, recalled the 1854 decision by
the Supreme Court outlawing rae
ial segregation in the public
schools. "Once again" he declared,
-. The Supreme Court Of the
United States has torn to shreds

In Chicago, clerymen took vary
ing views on the high courts &C

Rev. J. c. Austin Of Pilgrim
Baptist church here summed up
his feelings in these words:
This nation should always be
on speaking terms with God. I
strongly feel that above all else,
our school should start its day
with the recognition Of a Divine
presence and a confession Of graf
itude for Gods eternal care"
Hugh Chance, secretary of the
BahaT Faith in Winnetka, ILL.,, be-
Heves that prayer is a very per-
sonal thing and should be kept
that way.
The Rev. Niketas Kessess, of the
Greek Orthodox Cathedral here,
feels that ones own beliefs should
be taught, and recognition of a
Supreme Being expressed. How
ever, he adds, laws are made to be
kept.
Rabbi Rosenbahm, executive
vice president Of the Jewish faith
in Chicago quotes his personal
feelings as those of President Ken
needy, whom he feels summed up
his ideas exactly.
Father s. J. Martin, of st. Ed
munds Episcopal church, has
mixed emotions in regards to the
question. While he favors the daily
prayers, he believes that the
church and the state should be
kept separate. He was extremely
pleased with the opinion of Justice
Hugo Black.
Pastor E. w. Moore, Of the
Hyde Park Seventh Day Advent
list church in Chicago, Is of the
opinion that there should be no

freedom and this right should not

Heavy Responsibility

Newspapers can generate action in this
country. They not only record current his

will take. This is particularly true at the
community level. Where there is an aggres-

likely to be progressive clean community.
Where newspapers are fat and lazy, the
community is in danger of becoming a

indifference. You editors who serve the Ne

OF Holding Up
Case on Hoffa

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Nov. 80
(AP) flames r. Hoffa's at
torneys accused the Federal
Government today of holding
back its case against the Team
sters Union president until it
felt the time was ripe for a
conviction on a 81 million con-
spiracy charge.
The defense began attack
ing the prosecutions case in
the wake of a stormy parting
between the stoeky union head
and George S. Fitzgerald, his
legal counsel and friend since
1885. The Government rested
its case yesterday.
In arguments preliminary to
seeking q directed verdict of
acquittal, the defense said EVIL
dence offered by the prosecu-
ton for the most part had been

had been presented to two con-
gressional committees.

Star Staff Writer

F.. The Budget Bureau has Or
dered Federal agencies and en-
, ployeS to achieve a 3 per cent
increase in work productivity.
, In a followup directive to
President Kennedy's recent
+ order calling for better Gov
eminent manpower utilization.
the Budget Bureau told de-
partments that Federal pro-
duction must follow the pat
: tern of industry which has
been increasing at the rate of
3 per cent year.
This means that If agencies
J have the same work load fac
ing them during the next year
! they must do the work with
3 per cent less employees than
they now have.
If agencies have increased
workloads, it means that the
number of additional employees
to do the work must be 8 per
cent less than it otherwise
would be.
Budget officials said this
yardstick will be rigidly ad-
hered to, not only next year
but permanently.
And should national produc-
tivity increase above 3 per
cent a year, then the Govern
ment will adjust its own pro-
duction quota among its en-
ployes to meet the increase.
Actually, Budget Bureau Of
ficials don't anticipate tn a

have to be fired because of The
