AMERICA REPRESENTS MANY THINGS to the for
eigner who has never visited these shores. He
thinks of superhighways, huge shiny automobiles,
skyscrapers, film stars, Little Rock, President
Kennedy and teen-agers running wild He has
heard much, too, of the Grand Canyon and Niagara
Falls, for few Americans overseas can resist using
them with pride as a basis for comparison when
viewing the other wonders of the world
But great and wonderful as can be the products
of man and nature in this favored land first began
to like America (rather than just be impressed by
it, when looked behind the noisy facade learned,
as many have, that despite the crazy pace of life
there is deep well of kindness and generosity in
the American people and that it is possible still
to find peace and beauty, even within few hundred
yards of a laundering highway.
In the course of frequent visits to this country
have spent much time in the great cities, but have
had little opportunity to sample the wide country
side. This summer my wife and plan to take our
three small children on two-months' camping trip
across the nation and up into Alaska.

Democratic DebucIe

The dust is now beginning to settle from the late,
and unhappy Democratic primary and there little
doubt that of the nraparty bitterness engendered
during the campaign will carry into the general
election.
The campaign which ended abruptly Tuesday night
with the counting of the ballots of the sangest
conducted in Montgomery County in many years.
Longtime political allies were pitted against each
other and members of factions that had long been at odds
with each other suddenly found themselves playing
strange roles political bedfelows.
Pre-prmary maneuvering started well in advance Of
Tuesdays primaryabout year ago-in plenty of time
for the Democrats to effect sort of reasonable
promise strong slate two, instead of presenting
the schizophrenc posture to the voters that they did
Tuesday.
Key figure in the initial preprinary slmishing at
the county level was probably Blair Lee III. Lee
generally popular but undoubted factor in the debace
that finally caught up with county Democrats was resent
ment in quarters the way Lee minded his
political business back home rather the way he didn't
mend enough fences while expanding his horizons state
wide with his eyes the United States Senate Anyone
in position of leadership of course incurs the wrath of
some Everyone can't be kept happy matter what the
organization particularly in politics. Everybody can't win
and get what he wants Perhaps because of time and
other limitations neither Lee anyone else could have
effectively built his backyard fences while laying the
groundwork for his statewide effort But there
who felt that he should-and ddnt-and that plus Lees
decision to ride with Mahoney and the complication of
Gov Tawes deciding to for reecton-thus removing
the possibility of Lee Brewster seeking gubenatoria
nomination-dd the trick
With neither Lee Brewster willing to settle for
congressman-atarge, the two then committed to
running for the us. Senate seat being vacated by Sem
John Marshall Butler. And the die cast. The choos
ing up of sides then began.
With the ballots now counted, there is question
but that the losers will make pretense of closing ranks
and try to maintain facade of unity with the winners
But the wounds caused by the primary infghtng won't
heal quickly All Of which bodies well for the Republicans
in November and perhaps Messrs Tawes Mahoney Lee,
Brewster ct al could have given little thought to
that with long range profit to themselves and their
party.

Respect for Religion
BY Les KimbIe

In this world Of conflicting ideologies
some Americans seem to have forgotten
what respect for religion really means. We
hear around us statements about our nation
and our institutions which seem to imply
that we no longer respect religion. Secu-
larism, Goddess schools, atheism in our
schools Goddess nation, retreat from religion
and other such charges are thrown around.
Are such charges true?
In completely separating church and
state and by deleting all mention of God
from our Constitution our forefathers
were insuring respect for religion, all re-
hgiOn, that is. They knew that religion is
matter Of conscience. Freedom of con-
science Is necessary for freedom Of relig-
ion and freedom of religion is necessary
for freedom of conscience. The two can
not be divorced. The conscience Of indi.
vidual Americans must be free to accept
or reject religion In any form, including
belief in God. Religion cannot be legis-
lated.
Many of our forefathers were religious
men. The exclusion of God from our Con-
stitution was indeed a drastic step for re-
ligious men to take, but a little thought
will show how wise they were II God
is mentioned in our laws, how long will it
be before definition of God is required?
How long before some group will try TO
narrow that definition to conform to their
own beliefs? How long before other re-
ligious requirements will be added? Should
some Individual persuade group Of citizens
that he Is infallble in matters of religion,
and thus, in effect, speaks for God, it is
clear that his position is unassailable to his
followers. In the United States, however
he is just another religious leader, and what
ever his claims may be, they are binding
only to those who accept them. There can
be no deal to make one religion the official
religion, as has happened and is In effect
in some nations.
The separation Of church and state has
not harmed religion; on the contrary, it has
encouraged religion. 1t has also encouraged
the multiplication Of religious sects, but this
means that men are thinking about religion
and finding their own ways to worship God.
These varieties of religion produce climate
of freedom, not only in religious matters, but
in the whole life of the nation. James Madi-
son, Father of our Constitution, saw the ad.
vantages Of many religions when he said that
as long as America has a multiplicity of relig-
ions, we need never fear our religious free
doms. One has only to look at the nations Of
Europe TO see how right he was. Whatever
advantages monopoly produces in any field,
freedom is not one of them.

NAAcP Stand

A recent newsletter issued
by the Montgomery County
Branch of the National Asso-
citation for the Advancement of
Colored People may seem to
indicate that the branch has
endorsed certain candidates in
the gathering primary cleo
tons. 1t contains statements
by Democrats only and by a
few Democrats, at that.
AS a member of the branch,
/ know that the branch does
not and is not on record as
having endorsed any candi-
date 1t takes positions on is
sues but not on individuals.
The constitution and bylaws
OF the branch state that it
shall be non-partisan and
shall not endorse candidates
for public office"
I deeply regret that the
newsletter failed to carry
statements that were made by
Republicans as well and that
the newsletter seemed to VIC
late NAACP policy.
/ hope that 1t may be under
stood that no candidate, Dem.
ocratic or Republican, has been

Many heartwarming things have been done in we'll

social agencies will attend-the white children for the
first two of the twoweek sessions and the Negroes for
the last two-week phase of the program This
of results in the white and Negro children being
segregated and that is the present policy of the camps

that this policy has probably resulted in higher per-

the wishes of the majority of Montgomery Countans and

School Menus

In regards to the Student

So you think it is terrible
leaving the cafeteria with a
surplus of food? What do you
expect when you serve such
unbalanced meals as macaroni
and cheese and cornbread?
This is a frequent menu at
Broome Jr. High. can't
blame the school for not want
ing to publish the meals in adj
vance, but have they given any
thought to the student who has
to eat it or go without his
lunch for the day, as many
children do, because of this
combination. No, my children
didn't 60 without. they ate it
as they nave been taught, ana
to be thankful for it, whatever
it may be, but | feel the school
has the qualified help to serve
well balanced lunches and
should.
The Richard Montgomery
students who picketed for ad.
vanced menus were probably
justified in doing so. This is
the first school my children
have attended that did not
publish their weekly menus in
advance, either on the bulletin
board, or in the Sunday paper,
for the parents benefit Of
knowing what was being serv-
ed in the school. This should
be advantageous to the cafe
terra, as my children would
eat more meals in school il
they knew what was being
served, and I'm sure others
would do the same.

Why should anyone object to Bible

many Americans no possible objection
seems valid. However, questions do arise.
What version of the Bible will you use?
1t is possible that the use of one version
could cause dissensiOn i'm a community. 1t
is possible that it has happened. Can't we
then make selections from all versions of
the Bible on which the community could
agree? Can we? Probably not in all com.

from Bible to Bible. There are children
whose parents accept some very different
form Of religion or who do not accept any
religion. Public schools are part of the
government and by Supreme Court deci.
sion the government may not sponsor any
religion.
Let those parents who believe the school
day should start with religion arise Is or 20
minutes earlier than normal. Let the family
pray and read the Bible together. This prac-
tice will have far greater impact on the
children than ceremonial Bible reading and
prayer in the public schools. No doubt such
a practice will also help many parents under.

some parents may object, I'm not worried
about my children I'm worried about Others
children" That statement is the KEY to the
whole question. The religious teaching of
others children is none of their business.
But" these parents may protest, Juvenile
delinquency is my concern" Does anyone sin
cerely believe that few minutes of religion
by rote at the beginning of the public school
routine will stop juvenile delinquency? What
will stop it is an adherence to the principles
contained in our Constitution
Teach the children of our public
schools why religion is not taught there.
Teach the children that the reason we
have the separation Of church and state Is
because our forefathers had a deep re-.
spect for religion - all religion, that is.

that In some nations where church and

oppose censorship as matter OF principle.
l try TO put my feelings about the matter on
paper and have trouble. guess that have
a great amount of respect for any man who
can express himself. 1t seems to me that
expression is such difficult thing to accom-
plish.
Man is generally inarticulate. Since the
beginning of time man has looked into the
cluster of stars at night and watched them
wheel in predetermined procession across the
heavens. And as a result he has tried to
express his belief in God. Some have done
it by worshipping fire and others by human
sacrifice, and still others by writing verses
and putting them to song with the help of
a harp. But because one method Of worship
is more civilized than another is no reason
to deny the existence of the other.
Since a lover first looked upon the
image of death on the face of his beloved
and sensed the fact that something i'm.
mortal has left the body, he has recog-
nized desire to communicate his love
and his anguish to the world.
And some men communicate by song
and others by prose and poetry. And some
of the songs are offensive and some of the
prose and poetry is poor And some of the
men try to communicate their hatred by muir
der and rape and war; and some men try
TO communicate their love by tenderness and
steadfastness = but in all men there is this
unknown impulse to be heard"

On MiIIer's Book
Welsh Rare Bit !

1t is very hard to read book / read
one recently and 1 want to give my reader
about four or five quotations from the book.
These are not taken at random, but are rather
selected and 1 think that they prove that
anyone who could turn a phrase like the
following is at least entitled to admission
into our Mungummery County Sideshow.
He writes: "Side by side with the human
race there runs another race of beings, the
inhuman ones. the race of artists who, goaded
by unknown impulses, takes the lfeless mass
of humanity and by fever and ferTnent with
which they Undue it turn this soggy dough
into bread and the bread into wine, and the
wine into song" Again he writes in an
photographed vein: There was no world
too low for him to enter, no place too high
for him to fear to ascend. He went the whole
gamut, from the abyss to the stars" And
he speaks with sort of melancholy when
he says, $50 quietly flows the Seine that
one hardly notices its presence. 1t is always
there, quiet and unobtrusive like great
artery running through the human body"
The books are filled with passages similar
TO these. Just take my word for it.
judge the book, or review it, or censor
ii, or burn it, or whatever one wants to
do with books which affect him, BY select
ing certain passages which are appealing
and which perhaps appeal to the intel
ligent reader and conclude that this is
good book.
/ have been teaching Criminal Law for
more years than like to mention, and 1 have
observed that students read into case pref
ty much what they want to. For example:
there is section in the course devoted to
rape and to unnatural sexual offenses Some
of the cases are pretty lurid Those stu.
dents who want to learn the law on the sub
ject do so without being sidetracked or de-
based by the sordid facts which gave birth
to the law.
And I think the same thing applies
to literature. A person can read into the
book what he wants to. Or he can choose
not to read the book. At least he should
have the choice.
Now it happens that the numerical count
of four letter words in this book is extremely
high. 1t is so high that it becomes boring:
whether read on the banks of the river Seine
or the shores of the Potomac. But notice
that those who hunted for the four letter
words and found a whole nest of them, per-
haps overlooked the passages similar to the
ones l just quoted. And 1 think that it is
unduly enthusiastic to say the book is good
because it has good passages; and that it is
unwarranted to condemn the book because
it talks of sex in disgusting manner
But all of that is not quite my point
