ST. LOUIS, Mo. (RNS) — A
New York State education offi
cial declared here that Roman
Catholic and other church-re
lated colleges provide a public
service and should be subsidi
zed from public funds.
Dr. S. V. Martorana, direct
or of the Office of Planning for
Higher Education, New York
Education Department, made
these points in a talk before
college-level educators attend
ing the 60th annual convention
of the National Catholic Edu
cational Association.
“There seems to be no es
cape from the conclusion that
direct subsidy from tax funds
should be given to all units of
higher education as well as
indirect subsidization by (re
search) grants...or by loans
or scholarship money given di
rectly to students from public
sources,” Dr. Martorana said.
He told the educators that the
main argument against direct
subsidy to church-related in
stitutions seems to center on
the presumption that such aid
would violate Church-State se
paration.
“To argue that state or fed
eral grants to sectarian high
er educational institutions is a
use of tax money for religious
purposes is the same as saying
that sectarian Institutions are
religious rather than education
al in purpose and function,” he
said.
If such a position were true,
Dr. Martorana said, then chur
ch-related institutions should
be refused academic accredi
tation as educational organizat
ions.
“Since this obviously is ab
surd, where Is the Church-
State controversy?” he asked.
The State official said there
were three tests of whether
educational institutions are
performing services in the pu
blic interest. These he listed
as:
1. Is the academic work ho
nest and of at least minimum
quality of excellence?
2. Are the services provid
ed made available to all quali
fied candidates without regard
to race, creed or national ori
gin?
3. Does any individual re-

ceive financial profit from the
enterprise?
Dr. Martorana said he be
lieves Catholic colleges meet
these requirements.
“There can be no argu
ment,” he said that “the Ca
tholic colleges (with their coun
terparts in other religions) are
truly and substantially provid
ing a public service.”
“Indeed,” he added, “it is a
public service which we can
not allow to be lost, for its
loss would seriously weaken our
nation and the values its citizens
have always held high.”

ly when they deal with public order, safety and
justice.
V. The murderer needs no jog to his memory.
But we should know that abortion, fetal destruct
ion, euthanasia and suicide are forms of murder.
(If suicide is successful, it is not matter for
confession.)
Practical points; fighting, quarreling, injury,
anger, hatred, envy and jealousy. We should
especially examine our prejudices: religious,
racial, social, economic, intellectual and tribal
— or national.
VI and IX. The adulterer needs no reminder.
But a man may be unfaithful to his wife by dishon
esty, thoughtlessness, lack of love in various
degrees, unkindness, abuse, failure to show signs
of love and effection, non-support, etc.
A woman can be unfaithful to her marriage
vows by nagging, by being slovenly, unkempt,
a poor housekeeper, or by failing to be consid
erate of her husband's various needs, from
vanity to sex.
Persistent, selfish drunkenness can violate
marital love and fidelity as thoroughly as adult
ery.
Birth control — even rhythm — may offer
questions for honest concern.
Chasity and modesty are frequent problems
for teen-agers and unmarried adults. These
violate chasity and commit serious sin when
they Intentionally seek or willingly accept sexual
pleasure, whether complete or not. And they can
find this pleasure in thought and desire, In word
and sight, TV and movies, and especially in touch.
They may violate modesty in all these same
ways, and also by dress and behavior. Sins
against modesty may be serious or slight de
pending on the harm done or intended, the
dangers incurred, and the reasons for facing
these dangers.
Failures in modesty may easily become vio
lations of chastity in dating and company-keeping.
VII and X. The thief is aware of his sins, but
the man who cheats In business, who gives or
takes graft, who pays unjust wages, or who loafs
on the job, may be able to ease his conscience by
rationalizations, or from habit. We violate the
Seventh Commandment when we fail to respect
another's property rights as fully as we would
want our own respected. We want what is due
us; we must give what we owe another.
Is your word as good as your bond?
VIIL Ruining a man’s honor or reputation
may be much worse than stealing his purse.
Gossip can be grave, especially when malice
urges it. Have I said things about others which
I would never want people saying about me,
even if they were true?
Can I be trusted to keep secrets?
Do people believe what I say?
Is my word as good as my oath?
There remain a whole list of queries for the
doctor, the baker and the candle-stick maker.
Maybe another day.

MEMO FOR MOTHER’S DAY
MOTHER’S DAY IS MAY 12TH. It’s not too soon to think
about a Rift for that very special person—your mother . .. Here’s
a suggestion, very appropriate because
it calls to mind a woman who lived
long ago. yet is still remembered be
cause she exemplified so well the spe-
, . cial nobility of mothers everywhere:
j > faith, patience, self-sacrifice . . . Yes.
St. Monica probably is pleased with
the parish of ST. AUGUSTINE in
KARIMKUNNAM, India. Named In
honor of her famous son, this parish
also has his missionary spirit . . .
Poor though they are, the parishion
ers are trying to help a few Catholics
in the neighboring village of VADAK-
KUMMURI build a church. They have painfully scraped to
gether $5,500 for the building . . . One family donated land,
others services. But after seven years the new St. Joseph’s is
still unfinished . . . Little more can be expected in the way of
funds from these people, who are poor, extremely poor laborers.
Fr. Philip Karapallil of St. Augustine’s asks our help to the
amount of $2,300 . . . Wouldn't your mother be happy if you
were to help out in her honor?
Tie Holy Father's Mission Aid
for the Oriental Chunk
’’ . . . and still a grace
More high, more dread, and yet more sweet and fair
Both bind thy royal brows, O Mary blest.
God called thee Mother . . .”

MAY IS MARY’S MONTH and at this
beautiful time of year many of her littlest
children are led to the altars around the
world to receive their FIRST HOLY COM
MUNION . . . Among them are thousands
of children. PALESTINE REFUGEES. It Is
a lonely thing to be a refugee child, es
pecially on FIRST COMMUNION DAY. $10

fit for this holy occasion. Your help here is
needed!
IF YOU WISH to send s gift to our mission in the name of
your mother, we’ll send her a lovely GIFT CARD with pressed

ST. MONICA PRAYED for many years that her son, Au-
gustine, would some day put his great
talents to use in the cause of truth. Final-
— ® ly her plea was answered ... He was con
verted. became a priest, a bishop, “Doctor
of Grace.” Today other young men and
women long to devote their lives to spread
ing th! faith and caring for the sick and
£oor of mission countries as priests and
sisters . . . Young men like BENEDETTO
UOLDEGABER and GIOVANNI PAULOS,
Cistercian seminarians; and SISTERS BASILIA and VINCY of
the Sisters of the Destitute in India. They cannot pay their own
expenses: $100 a year for six years for the seminarians; $150
a year for two years for the novices. Won’t you adopt#one of
them and send your help anytime at your convenience through
the year?
MAYBE YOU’D RATHER JOIN one of our clubs, MARY’S
