(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- THIS WEEKEND 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.” Atlanta Area Adult Clubs Spring Gala The team from St. John Me- lkite Church edged a spirited Cathedral Club team 58-66 and won the Atlanta Area Council basketball championship.

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.
