a gray" area in interfaith
relations, and the issue of
church-state relations there
is perhaps most fraught
with tensions" The religious
leaders there, according to
the report, have as yet not
reacted by building interfaith
cooperation in the face of
"the reckless forays of the
rampaging right"
PHILADELPHIA, with it's
total population of 100000,
has now four percent Jews,
80 percent white Protestants,
and about the same percent
ages of white Catholics anC
N egro Christians. Protes-
tants there were reported
feeling more edgy," having
been squeezed out of an
earlier predominance. The
Jews there were seen as
feeling secure" and the
Catholics as riding a crest
of self-confidence." The city,
according to the authors, has
led the way nationally in
coping with the new dim
ensionS of human relations"
by facing possible divisive
issues openly.
AS TO THE Twin Cities"
of st. Paul and Minneapolis,
the writer's stated that they
have come to grips" with
such issues as Sunday clos
ing laws, the fact that the
state emblem contains a
cross, and other church
state problems. Minneapolis,
they stated, is no longer the
country's capital of anti
SemitiSm." The authors felt
that channels of interfaith
dialogue" could be deepened
in Minneapolis and st. Paul.
MUNCIE, once a hotbed of
Ku Klux Klanism, has 81, 900
Protestants, $500 Catholics,
and IT'S Jews. Sub-Surface
tensions exist there, the rab-
bis found, in housing and in
social and service" clubs.
The latter engage in discrim-
inatory practices, according
to the rabbiS, "aimed mostly
at Jews" D."
NASHVILLE, the scene of
violence, synagogue bomb
ings and hatred in the last
five years, was viewed hope
fully. The authors stated
that this city, predominantly
Protestant, is working qui-
city" for justice, and is max
ing progress slowly. They
attributed much of the vio-
lence there to poor whites,
the failures and the loafers"
who rnake up most of the
extreme segregationalists.

Heart trouble is one of the
greatest threats to life, and
1t is especially dangerous to
men. Women seem to have
special projection until after
menopause; after this they
are about as susceptible as
men.
There are things we can
do to lessen the danger.
Everyone should have a COM
plete and thorough physical
examination once o year.
Everyone should lose excess
poundage and remain at their
ideal weight for the rest Of
their lives. II your blood
cholesterol Is high, you
should follow your physi-
clans advice about lowering
it.
You should take regular,
daily exercise. These meas
ures will go a long way to-
ward protecting you against
heart disease.
Avoid Cold
However, there are condi-
tons and happenings which
can trigger a heart attack.
We are warned against undue
exposure to cold because this
places a severe burden on the
circulatory system.
The body is a wonderful
mechanism. It does its very
best to keep us alive and in
good health. We human be-
ings are warm blooded ami
mails and. therefore, wear
clothes to reduce the amount
of surface skin exposed to
the air. In addition to this,
when we are chilled we
shiver involuntarily. This
warns us up. If we remain
cold, small blood vessels close
down just under the surface
Of the body. The heart beats
faster and the blood pressure
rises. All of these are battle
measures to keep us warm
enough.
The American Heart Asso-
citation advises anyone with
an illness which causes poor
circulation to avoid exposure
to cold. Here are some Sug-
gestions we all can use.
Dress warmly when you 60
out, but not so warmly that
you perspire.
Keep dry. Dampness con-
ducts cold.
Cover up well in wind with
earmuffs and scarves.
Woods or synthetics which

tiers will highlight good fea-
lures, camouflage bad And
that adds up to double service
at any window.
There are loads of differ
ent ways to use the shutters.
Perhaps you would like long
ones down the side ,drapery
fashion, with cafe curtains
at the bottom and a ruftle
at the top.
Or use the shutters across
the top and have a curtain
at the bottom. Or use shut
tiers on both top ard bottom.
You can leave the top ones
open and close the bottom
and vice versa for variety's
sake.
They may be stained wood
tone. painted to match the
wall or painted a contrasting
color for accent value. Dark
walls and white-white shut
tiers are dramatic eye-stop-
pers and worth considering.
If you have a bay window,
like light, but need privacy
on a lower level, you might
try a series of short japanese
shot, screens decorated with
butterflies, leaves and ferns.

A FIRsT-HAND IMPRESSION
A EVsT14AND IMPRESSION
Titov The Soviet Man Of Tomorrow
BY WILLIAM HINES
Star Science Wrffar

SEATTLE.-After more than q
week touring the country with
Gherman stepanovitch Titov I
must confess 10 q feeling Of baf-
flement. The 27-year-old Soviet
cosmonaut blends the utterly
strange with the banally familiar,
as II q man from Mars were to
offer you q Newport filter ciga-
rette.
As practically everyone has OBJ
served. Maj. Titov bears startling
resemblance to an American
though I am not at all sure he
would consider this a flattering
remark. Precisely because he does
look SO much like the kid down
the block, his totally foreign out
look on life is doubly unsettling.
The kid down the block simply
doesn't boast Of his membership
in the Communist Party and pro-
claim his disbelief in God. Cher
man Titov does.
Mai. Titov Is q creature Of q
carefully controlled environment,
like o laboratory mouse born
under sterile conditions and kept
carefully isolated from septic In
fluences. He Is q second genera
ton New Soviet Man; the state
was II years old when he. was
born. It did not have to remold
him In the image Of arx-Engels-
Lenin; it started with the un-
contaminated material Of O new
born baby and worked with that.
He Got q GIomoE JOB
The state gave young Titov a
good Soviet education, q glamor
job and . chance-in-a-lifetime to
do something historic. He appar-
entity was selected for pilot train
ing originally because Of mechan-
ical aptitude (heredityO and for
cosmonaut training because Of his
ability as o pilot (environment?).
It was all very scientific.

seats, points out that the four
suburban counties have nearly ~
per cent Of the motor vehicle
registrations yet get only IL per
cent Of the gas tax allocations
to maintain roads.
The suburban counties have
been trying for years to have
road funds allocated on the basis
Of auto registration. The funds
are now distributed on the num-
Der Of miles Of roads.
Most other State fund distribu- I
ton formulas give the break to
the rural counties. Legislators
from the high-income, high tax
paying suburban areas conceds
their counties should help the
poorer ones, but they claim their
areas are entitled to q fairer re-
turn on their tax dollar than
they are getting.
Another fiscal area which
probably will get more attention
is the taxing power Of the To-
calities. Suburban counties, par
ticularly Montgomery. want au-
thority to tap q wider tax field.
But the State has been reluctant
to let them move in this direction.
Welfare Legislation
In the fields Of social and well
fare legislation, the greater In
fluence Of the metropolitan areas
probably will be felt. ~
Many areas Of Maryland, q
border State In the Civil war,
still retain southern racial tradi-
tiohs and attitudes. Many legis-
lators from the small counties are
inclined to look with suspicion on
welfare programs.
A public accommodations bill,
which would have prohibited res-
taurant and hotel owners from
refusing to serve Negroes, was de-,
feated at the 1862 session Of the
General Assembly. Had the metro,
politan areas been in control, the
outcome probably would have been
different. While some metropolita
Legislators opposed the bill, It was
the strong opposition from the
rural areas which killed 1t.
Metropolitan area legislators in
the Maryland Assembly have been
more inclined to be sympathetic
toward labor legislation. Minimum

Q court onslaught from the urban

The unit system Of electing pri-
mary nominees, which is super
imposed on the Assembly appor-

attack. Even II 1t does not fall,
the changes expected In the mem

The present apportionTnent plan
which gives the rural areas domin-
ationiof the General Assembly was
set up In the constitution Of 1857.
About 1910 the unit system Of
party elections for the three top
state posts and for United States

Under the unit system, each
county and each legislative district
Of Baltimore City gets o unit vote
in party primaries equal to the
number Of representatives 1t has
in the General Assembly.
When the unit system was set
up, Baltimore City had nearly half
the States population. Tns rural
areas. which controlled the oen-
eral Assembly, feared that Balti-
more would SOON dominate them
in the selection Of party nominees.
Therefore, the unit rule was en-

No one expects Q revolution In

be more sympathetic to urban
area problems.
Baltimore City, for instance,
has been In o tremendous finan-

many Of its wealthier citizens
moved to the suburbs. the city
was filling up with low-income
