Design of the new submarine

The underwater vehicle was
designed at the naval ordnance
test station at China Lake,

Its design is based partially
on the work Of a famed under

and his bathyscaphe Trieste.
Unlike other submarines, the
new underwater craft has fixed

The external hull is used

The vehicle is propelled by

Mexican Labor
Bill Passes in
Senate, 1874
BY the Associated Press

The Senate has passed a bill
to extend the Mexican farm
labor program for another year
after first adopting an amend
ment which sponsors of the
bill said would effectively kill
the entire program.
1t was an afternoon Of very
close votes yesterday. There
were three tie roll calls, all
45-45. The key amendment was
adopted 44-43.
The amendment, in effect,
would require employers seek
ing Mexican laborers to offer
domestic workers the same
housing, transportation expen-
ses. workmen's compensation
and work period guarantees
given to Mexican workers.
Senate passage of the bill, by
a vote of 1924, sends the mea-
sure to the House, which
earlier this year killed a two
year extension bill by a 16-vote
margin.
The Senate bill is an attempt
to revive the program after de-
feat of the House Bill. Without
some such bill, the program
under which Mexican workers
come into the United States
each year to help harvest fruit,
vegetables and other crops, will
end December 81.
The Senate bill would ex-
tend the program until Deem

of MartinSville, Va, complained
that the United States Epis-
copal (Anglican) House Of
Bishops had played into the
hands of Pseudo liberals" by
indorsing the August 20 civil
rights march on Washington.
"As Christians we must rea-
lie we have been prejudiced,
though I don't acknowledge
segregation per Sc as discrim-
inatory," Mr.. West said.
Called Unlawful
He added that the Washing
ton demonstration would be
unlawful, "a devious political
tactic" and potentially violent.
Another lay delegate, Charles
P. Taft, a city councilman in
Cincinnati, Ohio, and a brother
of the late Senator Robert A.
Taft, pleaded for more active
support Of the civil rights cam
paign, accusing the congress of
failing to face the issue
squarely.
Mr.. Taft said congress
speakers had talked in gener-
alities about the race issue
when what was needed was
clear-cut guidance from the
church.
The Rev. c. E. Crowther,
chaplain of the University of
California in Los Angeles, said
it was "a scandal" that the
Episcopal Church remains seq
regated in some areas.
The congress must speak out
for the civil rights struggle, he
said, without considering ''po-
litical expediency or, for that
matter, the local power struc-
ture or the parish'S biggest
(financiaD pledges" he said.

Romantic Gamble
Not Really Theft,
Tax Court Holds
By the Associated Press

A bachelor who signed up for
900 hours of dancing lessons
in hopes Of meeting the. girl of
his dreams may not legally
claim he was robbed Just be.
cause his romantic plans fan
through.
The United States Tax Court
so ruled in finding that Fer
man j. Schonhoff, a st. Louis
office worker, owes the Gov
eminent 1852 in back income
taxes.
AS Judge John E. Mulroney
stated it. Mr.. Schonhoff testi-
fled that in November 1857,
being dissatisfied with his
status as a bachelor. he en-
rolled in a dancing ltudio for
Is hours of dancing lessons in
order to meet girls with a view
toward marriage"
Soon afterward, he signed a
contract with the unnamed
studio for 1000 hours Of les
sons-roughly equal to six
weeks Of solid dancing, If he
had taken the lessons in one
lump. The total cost was
$8,825.
Mr.. Schonhoff told the court
he signed the contract because
the studio manager had i'm
piled he would be allowed to
date the girl instructors-con-
trary to the policy Of the
studio.
But he never testified that
the studio actually told him
he could date the instructors,
Judge Mulroney said.
After about 221 hours of les
sons and no dates with active
dancing instructors, Mr.. Schon-
hoff asked for his money back.
He got $500 back for the
unused ITO hours minus some
bookkeeping fees.
On his 1860 tax return he
listed $3,925 as 'loss by theft"
But the Tax Court upheld the
Internal Revenue Service, in
holding that transactions with
the dancing studio falls far
short Of establishing the sub
stantive elements of such q
crime"

Episcopo|ion Delegates
Clash on Race Issues

TORONTO, Aug. 16 tAP) -
Churchmen at the Anglican
World Congress mingled in ap-
parent amity at a coffee party
last night despite earlier dis
Iputes on racial issues.
Complaints and accusations
were exchanged during yester-
days session on racial contro-
versies involving Arab and Jew
Negro and Caucasian.
A Middle Eastern clergyman
took issue with an American
delegate over a published &C
cusation that Middle Eastern
AnglicanS display an anti
Israel bias in their worship.
A book Just published by
Canon Howard johnson of New
York on the worldwide Angli-
can communion says the
church in Syria, Jordan and
Lebanon has revised books OF
liturgy to remove favorable ref
erences to the Jews and any
reference to Israel.
The Rev. Shafiz Farah of
Beirut, Lebanon, charged that
Canon Johnson's book, "Global
Odyssey" presented an ugly
and distorted picture" Of the
church in the Middle East.
Hits mistakes"
I'VE are not attacking the
man Canon Johnson) he
said later. But we want to
straighten out the mistakes. "
He added that Bishop N. A
Cuba'in of the diocese of Jor-
day, Lebanon and Syria, would
give the correct" version Of
his diocese letter.
Canon johnson, q scholar al
the Cathedral Church of st
John the Divine in New York
City, was not available fol
comment.
The Middle East issue was
raised during a clash over the
church's attitude toward the
campaign for Negro civil rights

Changes in Faculty
At Oxford, the University of
Mississippi is losing more than
20 per cent of its faculty. Many
professors who are leaving say
the reason is because Of "re-

interference not conducive to
an academic atmosphere"
An Associated Press survey
shows that 81 faculty men,
bers listed in the 1923 uni
versity catalog will not return
for the fall term, which begins
next month.

Nearly all women marry,

American W ON e n" pro-

work about women in the
United States today. 1t pre-
sents facts that can, and
should, be considered in the
educational counseling Of
girls.
Here are some conSidera-
tons that make vocational
counseling and the adoption Of
vocational goals important at
the junior-senior high school
level:
. Education and e arning
power 60 hand in hand. Wom-
en- with four years Of high
school on the average make
twice as much money as those
with only elementary school
educations-s2, 900 per ye ar
compared to $1,000.
. Girls with vocational goals
are more interested in school
and make higher grades. I've
found that the adoption of vo-
cational goals is as closely al
lied to good S c h GLARS hip
among girls as it is with boys.
Girls with specific vocational
goals were more ne arly
reaching their potentials than
those without thoeS goals.
. Girls with goals are less
liable to become early drop
outs. Vocational goals auto
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1963-11-21

mstically include educational
goals. High school students
with vocational goals realize
the necessity Of completing
their schooling to reach their
goals. This is true in college,
as well. Dropouts among col
lege women are usually asso-
ciated with a lack Of goals.
. Girls who have prepared
themselves for a vocation feel
more secure during the years
when their families are
young.
Security Increased
Let me illustrate with this
story:
Two young college grad
yates married brothers and
each family has two young
children. In discussing the
subject Of security one of
these young women told me,
"In getting my college degree
/ earned a teaching credenti-
al. Because | can work in an
emergency / have a feeling Of
security and a willingness for
my husband to venture that
my sister-in-law lacks. She
worries constantly about what
would happen to her and the
children if her husband could
no longer work"
Setting vocational goals is a
realistic approach to life for
high school girls. Parents and
counselors must encourage
this new approach.
