Federal Aid To Education Hearings
Continue In Congressional Committee
WASHINGTON -NC The
House Education Committee
will divide into three subcom
mittees for more hearings on
President Kennedy's omnibus
bill for aid to education.
This decision reportedly was
made in a closed meeting of the
committee (Feb. 28) in order
to get more detailed testimony
on each of the 24 programs in
the President’s big proposal.
The action confirms an in
formal understanding with wit-

nesses who already have testi
fied, most of whom told the
committee they expected to re
turn with more specific analy
ses.
THE PAST three weeks of
hearings were designed chiefly
to receive opinion on whether
the bill should be kept in its
present form or separated into
several measures. It will be
kept as one bill.
Despite the committee’s in
tention, the sessions continually
veered onto the question of
including church - related and
other private elementary and
secondary schools in the bill.
At present, these schools are
out. Public schools, however,
would be given $1.5 billion in
four years for "selective and
urgent improvement.’’
The absence of aid to private
education undoubtedly will be
discussed more intensely when
subcommittee hearings begin.
Msgr. Frederick G. Hochwalt,
director of the education de
partment of the National Catho
lic Welfare Conference, has told
the committee he is prepaired
to return.
NOTING in his recent testi
mony that witnesses were limit
ed to ten-minute statements,
the Monsignor said this was
not time for a "complete eval
uation” of legislation "of such
importance to education and of
such serious implications to
millions of citizens."
“I assume,” he said, "there
will be subcommittee hearings
which will provide adequate op
portunity for a full present
ation."
The script for participants in
future hearings on the subject
was clearly outlined in the earl
ier sessions.
The NCWC, the Citizens for
Educational Freedom and one
or two others, chiefly repre
sentatives of the booming Jew
ish parochial school movement,
will urge equal consideration
for private elementary and se
condary schools.
IT IS possible that the argu
ments of private school
supporters will be backed by
others, perhaps some labor re
presentatives and the National
Association for the Advance
ment of Colored People.

council adopted a stand at a
recent meeting urging that Fed
eral aid proposals give paro
chial and other private schools
"as much assistance as is con
stitutionally possible." A
NAACP spokesman has told the
House Committee his organi
zation does not oppose Federal
assistance to private schools
which have outlawed racial se
gregation.
Opposed to them will be a
formidable array. Led by the
816,000-member National Edu
cation Association, it will in
clude the Council of Chief State
School Officers, the American
Association of School Admini
strators, the National Congress
of Parents and Teachers, the
National Council of Churches
of Christ, the U.S. Office of
Education and some fringe
groups such as Protestant and
Other Americans United for
Separation of Church and State.
THE COMMITTEE’S reaction
to the sharp division of opinion
appears to be uncertainity. One
sign of this is that the sub
committee which will work on
the proposal for grade and high
school aid has put the matter
aside and begun hearings on
the President’s proposal for a
youth conservation corps and a
youth employment program.
In sharp contrast to the firm
stands on the elementary and
secondary level, there is no
similiar hardness about part
icipation of church-related col
leges In Federal aid. They are
treated equally with public
colleges and universities in the
proposal before the committee.
The spokesman for the Nat
ional Council of Churches, for
example, told the committee
that the federation of Protest
ant and Orthodox churches has
no stand on the question of
government aid to church-
related colleges.
However, on aid to church-
related grade and high schools,
the council.has adopted formal
stands against any aid to the
schoo.s themselves, to their
pupils or to the parents of their
pupils.
THE NEA, unalterably op
posed to aid to private educat
ion on the elementary and se
condary level, nevertheless
said it would support the
administration’s proposal for
equal treatment of colleges if
it is kept in an omnibus bill.
The Kennedy administration
has vigorously defended the
right of all types of colleges to
share in its proposal, arguing
that there exists a lengthy hist
ory of U.S. assistance to
church - related and other
private institutions of higher
education.
The American Council on
Education, principal spokesman
for American colleges and uni
versities, also had defended
participation of all colleges,
citing the nation's tradition of
diversity in higher education.
THERE HAS been no Senate
action on education aid. Bog
ged down for weeks in debate
over its rules, the Senate only
recently has organized its com
mittees. No public announce
ment has been made when its
education subcommittee will
begin public hearings.
When hearings are held, it
is likely that the Senate com
mittee will take no formal act
ion on the bill until it is clear
how the House plans to handle
the measure.
Senate leaders, confident of
Senate approval of legislation
backed by its education com
mittee, reportedly do not want
to pass a bill which differs so
drastically from the House ver
sion that compromise agree
ments cannot be reached.
The three House subcommit
tees which will hear additional
testimony are: "general edu
cation,” element— se
condary schools, headed by Rep.
Carl D. Perkins of Kentucky:
"special education,” colleges
and universities, headed by Rep.
Edith Green of Oregon; and
"select education,” vocational
and miscellaneous education,

METHODIST BISHOP
Vatican Council Is
Important Century

Smyrna, Georgia
JOHNSTOWN, Pa. -NC A
Methodist bishop evaluated the
Second Vatican Council as "the
most important and most out
standing world event in this
century.”
Bishop Fred Pierce Corson
of Philadelphia, president, of
the World Methodist Council,
told the Johnstown Catholic
Forum that His Holiness Pope
John XXIII "has the common
touch, an instinct for the right
thing” and is a realist.
"I CAN’T help but believe
that God is using him to bring
men and women of all faiths
to recognize the primacy of
God, and to an organic expres
sion of faith that all of us have
in Christ, our Saviour,” Bishop
Corson, an observer at the
council, said.
The Methodist leader said
had he been asked five years
ago "if such a council could
take place and if Protestants
would serve as observers, I
would have said, ‘We will ne -
ver see it In our day/ ” He
added a belief that the council
and its observation by Ortho
dox and Protestant represent
atives is the work of the Holy
Spirit.
”1 think that on the merits
of its place in history, the
council is the most important
and most outstanding world
event in this century,” Bishop
Corson continued. "At no time
has there been a response to
the council. The common man
recognizes that the world pro
blems basically are spiritual
and will not be solved until
we find a way to God.”
BISHOP Corson said that
aside from the work of the
council, Protestants were Im
pressed by their reception by
the Pope and the Catholic bis ops
and clergy.
“Observers have a place
nearest to the Pope,” Bishop
Corson explained. "During the
sessions, we sat in the front
of St. Peter’s and there was no
one between us and the Holy
Father. We could see the move-

ment of his face, watch his ex
pression as he listened and wat
ched.”
Every effort was made to
have the Protestant observers
understand the meetings con
ducted in Latin, Bishop Corson
said. “Our reception In Rome
has done much good, for now
we can tell our people of the
rapport that can exist if we
follow the example of the Holy
Father,” he continued.
"Pope John has opened the
door to take us all out of our
Isolation,” Bishop Corson said.
"Under the Holy Father’s di
rection, the way has come to
know each other better....The
word that the Pope uses in
referring to us (Protestants)
_ ‘separated brethren*— car
ries a great connotation of that
open door."
The council is a declaration
of war against the forces op
posing the Christian church-
secularism, materialism and
atheism, he declared. "If we’re
going to save this world, we’ve

Society
The regular monthly meeting
of St. Mary’s Altar Society,

our irritations and prejudices
and unify to fight our common
enemies,” he added.
Bishop Corson said: "There
are many kinds of unity. Spirit
ual unity makes us brethren
even though separated, and or
ganic unity makes us one in
the Mystical Body of Christ.”
Referring to the publicized
cleavage between liberal and
conservative elements of the
Catholic Church during the
council, Bishop Corson said that
the differences "evidence the
freedom within that Church.
Those outside have a tendency
to think that the Church is
autocratic. That's the point that
is missed.”
Bishop Corson said he asked
the Pope for the secret of his
long and actively strenuous life.
He continued:
"THE POPE said that his
secret is in the third book,
the 23rd chapter of Thomas a
Kempls. Four points are listed
there. ‘Endeavor to do the will
of another rather than your
own; choose to have less rather
than more; seek the lowest
place rather than the highest,
and continue to wish and pray
that the will of God may be
fulfilled in you.'
Competing in the shadow of
their taller basketball brethe-
ren, the Marist grapplers
raised many eyebrows late last
month. The unheralded Cadets
fought their way to a fourth-
place finish in the State Wrest
ling Tournament at Cross Keys
High School. They were topped
only by perennial powers Briar-
cliff and Avondale and host
Cross Keys.
Scotty McCord copped in
dividual performance honors
for the Blue and Gold. He won
the championship in the heavy
weight category. This is the
talented matman’s second con
secutive State win. Last year,
he defeated all opponents in the
191-pound class.
WITH fifth-place finishes in
their respective divisions,
Eddie Dyer, Jack Banbury, John
Vilece, and Steve Kelly added
valuable points to the Marist
effort. .Also contributing to the
Cadet cause was David James,
who took sixth in his weight
category.
Earlier in the season, the mat
contingent stormed to second
place in the Fulton County In
vitational Wrestling Tourna
ment. The team accounted for
four first - places, a tourney
high. Steve Kelly, Scotty
McCord, Eddie Dyer, and Jack
Banbury were the individual
victors.
Dominated by underclass
men, the squad will return
several experienced grapplers
for competition next year.
Coach Don Shea warns that the
outlook for the 63-64 season •
should be bright for the Cadets, ‘
and dim for future opponents.

At the same time he urged
