to one year for each 8 months
of World War II active duty.
The law further provides that
no entitlement for World War
II veterans would end before
July 25, 1862, nor would en-
titlement go beyond July rs,
1867. The law was written in
this way in order not to cut off
any veteran before July rs,
1862, and to set July 25, 1867
as the "cut-off" date of entitle-
ment for all World War II vet
Grams, even in cases where the
formula alone would extend er
titlement to 1870 or beyond.
As a consequence, on July 25;'
1862, and on every day there
after, some veterans will lose
their rights to participate in the
Veterans Administration qua
ranteed and direct home loan
programs of the G.I. Bill Of
Rights. The same formula is
used to determine the entitle-
ment of Korean veterans to
home loan rights. The final cut
off date of entitlement for all
Korean veterans is January 81,
1878.

funds to enter college next fall:
Under the National Defense
Student Loan Program, estab-
lished in 1859 during the Eisen-
hover Administration, funds
are made available to partici-
pating universities for loans to
worthy students.
A student who qualities on
the basis of ability and need
can borrow up to $1,000 per
school year, but there is an
overall limit of $4,000. There is
no interest until a year after
the borrower finishes school.
Then interest begins at the rate
of 3 per cent a year, and he
has 10 years in which to repay
the loan. For those who become
teachers in public schools, up
to 80 per cent of the loan is
cancelled-at the rate of 10 per
cent for each year of teaching.
A high school student can
find out the requirements and
how to apply for a National
Defense Student loan from his
guidance counselor or principal,
or from the college he plans to
attend. Those already in col
lege can get details from the
campus officials in charge Of

Forever let us hold our banners high

faced children are seated before a screen on which the
letters MICKEY figure large. This appears as a form
of daily worship.
A hymn, which may have also served as a sort of
national anthem, was always sung by the children at
such gatherings, in which the rats name was promi-
nently invoked and even spelled out. Copies of this
hymn have been found in abundance. (See r. Klien-
mann'S Die Rodentlieder for a musical analysis of this
and similar hymns. Recent discoveries have already
dated his work, but it is still an invaluable assistance
in graSping the primitive musical concepts of the an
cient North Americans. The music is primitive, but is
surpassed in this regard by the text. Indeed, the text
is SO crude that psychologists have dated its origins as
early as 5000 B. C. Those who hold this date point out
that the ancient Egyptians had a flourishing animal
cult at this time. The rat-cult may thus have been
transported to the western hemisphere by way of the
Berring isthmuS NOV straits. Others, who say the
Berring migration antedated the ancient Egyptian
culture by some $4,000 years, believe the cult came
westward with either Lief Ericsson or Christopher Co
lumbus, after it had become the dominant European
religion.
AT ANY RATE, it was inevitable that a cult some
5000 years old should have degenerated to the print
tive stage in which we find it at New York. What is
especially puzzling to psychologists and anthropolo-
gistS is the exact significance of the cult. In the hymn,
for example, the name Mickey Mouse is stated and
restated. 1t is spelled and r~eSpelled. The theology
behind the cult must have evolved to a point where no

Perhaps in the year 1862 AID. a scientific journal might
carry the following article:
ArcheologiSts are sitting through the ruins of a
recently excavated city on the Atlantic seaboard of the
North American continent. This city appears to have
been a rather large aggregation of people, numbering
possibly several million inhabitants.
There has been the usual number of remains, such
as automobiles, television apparatus and a curious OBJ
lect which may prove to be an electric dlShWaSher.
THE NAME of this city has not been ascertained, as
there seems to have been a series of rulers after whom
the city was named. Such names as Brooklyn, Bronx,
and Manhattan occur, with New York outnumbering
all the others combined. 1t has been suggested that
New York may represent the original ruler prototypel,
or a long-lived dynasty, or finally, an individual whose
rule was widely reputed for the greatness which char
acterlZed it.
the uncovering of some indications of the type of re-
ligion of the inhabitants. For years anthropologists
had generally supposed that the people who inhabit-
ed North America four thousand years ago had no
religion whatsoever. This situation would have been
very unusual, indeed unique, but previous excavations
at other sites had made this theory apparently accept
able. 1t has, however, been proved incorrect.
At New York las we shall call it there have been
evidences OF a crude religious system based on animal
worship. Pictures, photographs, statues, and books
have been uncovered which point to an established
cult which centered around a rat.
Seigfurt calls this Ratkult, which we may trans
late as rat cult, acknowledging as we do so, the deplor-
able lose of a fine shade of meaning which is somewhat
regained by the phrase, cult of the RAT. ION this matter,
see I. L. Heinrich's essay, Das Rodentwissenschaft, vol.
iv, PIP. 327-471, and compare with +. Schwarzmann's
Das Rodentkultvr, PIP. 728-849. The name of this rat
Mickey, was apparently thought to impart special bless
ings on those who invoked it.
THERE WERE many other animals, such as
wolves and bears. Particular prominence seems to have
been given to a certain duck called Donald. There was
even some attention paid to insects. But these gods, or
demi- gods, maintained their stature only in relation
to the supreme rat-god, Mickey.
His worshippers were profoundly religious. This
is shown by the importance of the cult in their daily
lives. Parents looked on the Standardization of their
children Kuhn calls this Die Rodentaufgabe) with a
gravity which might shame modern Christians of the
sixtieth century. These children would apparently be
introduced to the rat-cult from the very earliest age.
One picture depicts a scene in which dozens of solemn

one was quite certain just why the rat was Worshipped
in the first place. There are vague references to this
rat as "The Leader or '"The Greatest, !" but in just
what sense, or by virtue of what title, has not yet been
clarified.
There was a priest-caSte with indefinite privileges.
1t was hereditary, for its members represented every
age. The office of priesthood was distinguished by an
insignia which consisted of a sort of skull cap with two
large ears projecting above the head. These are styliz-
ed, but obviously intended to be those of a rat. There
are no variations.
Three temples have been unearthed, one of which
has yielded pictures of the rat. Temple inscriptions in
dictate a system of formal worship which consisted OF
visits made by the faithful, during which they would
sit for hours while heroic scenes of rodent-sagaS I'M
folded on a large moving-picture screen. We have only
fragments of these sacred films, but they clearly indi-
cate the existence of quaint, but elaborate legends
centered about the rat under a special title, Super
mouse. There are indications that North America may
abound with these temples. They received their support
from the offerings which the faithful left at the door
upon entering.
There appears to have been a type of religious
leadership invested in a human being whose last name
has been variously rendered Dizzy, DisY, DiseY, and
Disney, but whose first name is always faithfully re-
corded as Walt. Occasionally, his last name appears
with two lines drawn vertically through the "s'. The
exact significance of this symbol has been established
by j. H. Kochensparger as pertinent to ancient North
The Catholic times. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1951-current, 1962-07-06

One of the most significant
expressions of this revolu-
tionary thought may be found
in an address delivered by FL
del Castro to a conference of
writer's artists and intellec-
tuals in Havana some months
ago. 1t was obviously the
result of a considerable
amount of anxiety and in
security on the part of the
Cubans who are concerned
with cultural life.
In the published text of
Castro's address we find a
number of basic ideas that
throw a great deal of light on
the attitude of the Revolu-
ton toward freedom of
speech, liberty of expression
in the arts, and the like.
1t is not enough to say Cuba
is communist and therefore
the problem of freedom of
expression Or simply human
liberty is solved precisely as
in East Germany or Bulgaria.
This is not quite the case.
The Cuban Revolution is
new, extremely new; the pro-
cess of sovietization has hard
ly had time to achieve the
same kind of rightly as in
the East European satellites.
Moreover, Cubans are not
Bulgarians or East Germans
and there are undoubtedly
adjustments to be made in
their case in line with their
temperament, attitudes and
background.
CASTRO TELLS US. for ex-
ample, that one of the charac-
~teriStics of the Cuban move
ment has been that it did not
enjoy a long period of gesta-
ton prior to reaching power.

tual maturity of revolution

But the major problem that
is posed is that of freedom
of expression. Prime Minister
Castro opens his argument
by the assertion that the Rev
olution is devoted to liberty
that it was, indeed, conceiv-
ed for the purpose of assur-
ing liberty to a country that

The Revolution is aimed at
the liberation of the masses,
at the raising Of the prole-
tariat and the peasantry to a
higher material and spiritual
level. Therefore, every prob
lem is conceived in the light
of the welfare of the masses.

base everything" Castro said,

tionS. The non-revolutionary
is tolerable insofar as he re.
fleets an incapacity to par.

the anti-revolutionary is an.
other thing entirely and here
we have the key to the whole
policy of the Cuban state:
Everything Within the
Revolution. Nothing against
it. The first right of the Rev.
olution is to exist and since
the Revolution means the in-
terests of the entire nation,
no one can l~egitimately
claim rights against it."
The conclusion is simple.
The Revolution repres e n s
the totality of the Cuban
state. Those who cannot sup
port it through their work
with enthusiasm cannot, by
the same logic, oppose it.
The Revolution has the basic
and prior right to exist and
to flourish. Everything must

students.
In any event, the more inn
portant question is not who
initiated Or supported the
strikes, but why they were
called in the first place. Mr..
MISUNDERSTANDING answer to
this question strikes us as be-
ing too restricted. He says, in
effect that they were called
for purely economic reasons
that their one and only pur-
pose was TO bring about an
increase in wages or, If you
will, to provide the miners
with a relatively larger piece
of a small economic cake.
THIS is PARTIALLY true.
Obviously the miners must
have had an economic pur-
pose - among other purpos-
es on detectives in going
out on strike. But their state
ment Of this purpose would
undoubtedly differ substan-
TALLY from that of KuehneIt-
Leddihn. He says that a radi-
cal redistribution of the ma
tional income in a country as
poor as Spain would not ma
terially improve the general
situation.
The strikers would prob
ably agree with this conclu-
sion-up to a point. But they
would hasten to add, in the
words Of the joint manifesto
issued on May 3 by JOG and
HOAC, that if wages are to
be limited in the interest of
the common good, social JUS
tice requires that all other in
comes be submitted to the
same restrictive measures so
that the sacrifices are shared
by all the members Of the ma
tional community"

Leakage

Leakage-used with religious connections-is a
new word to most people.
But the problem it so aptly describes is not new.
II has been called, in fact, on one of the greatest hurd-
les faced by the Church in America today.
II is basically, the process through which a large
number of Catholics have drifted away from regular
practice of the faith.
Some authorities have estimated that the pro-
cess has claimed as many as 30 per cent of the Church's
members.
What is the cause Of this leakage?
Primarily, these same authorities say, it is the
steady secularizaion of our society, with the result
ing increase in mixed marriages and indifference to
moral principles.
