College Careers Opened
To Qualified Georgians
PHOENIX, Ariz. (RNS) —
Highway safety is a moral ques
tion, one of responsibility to
wards others on the road, a Ro
man Catholic priest-columnist
said here at an lnterreliglous
conference of clergymen and
laymen on traffic accident pre
vention,
A man has no more right to
endanger another with a car than
he would have to endanger ano
ther with a gun," observed Fa
ther John P. Doran, syndicated
columnist and pastor of St,
Thomas the Apostle church in
Phoenix,
FATHER DORAN was one of
several speakers at the confer
ence which was aimed at bring
ing about sustained activity by
churches on the matter of high
way safety,
Other speakers included
Brig. Gen. Robert Scott, U.S.
A.F. (Ret.), author of "God is
My Co-Pilot," and flier in the
first air raid on Tokyo with
Gen. James Doolittle; Tuscon
police chief Bernard Garmire;
Arizona Supreme Court Chief
Justice Charles Bernstein; Dr,
Frank A, Schmitz, pastor of the
American Evangelical Lutheran
church, Phoenix; and Rabbi Al
bert Plotkin, spiritual leader of
Temple Beth Israel, Phoenix.
ALL OF THE speakers have
been actively engaged in auto
accident prevention,
Conference delegates were
welcomed by Arizona Gov. Paul
J. Fannin who said "our high
ways will be safe when the peo
ple demand them to be safe,"
*The attitude of our people
will determine the safety of our
highways,..all of us insist the
other fellow is always to
blame," Gov. Fannin declared.
Pastor Schmitz, who was the
driving force behind an Arizona
law requiring motorists to be
photographed for their driv
ers* licenses, emphasized the
value of preventive education In
highway safety.
" 'GOD IS WATCHING,* *’ he
said, “should be the slant of
education to the child in this
field of traffic safety,"
Mr, Schmitz also stressed
the role of clergymen In coun
seling persons who are the po
tential causes of accidents.
"Bring some of these bad driv
ers to the pastor," he said,
"and perhaps they can be coun
seled."
In a luncheon talk, Dr, Court
observed that traffic safety pro
grams should be a matter of
personal concern, "It is God’s
will that we live out our days
rather than lose our lives in
some foolish accident,'* he said,
A SAFETY PROGRAM, he
said, is "a way of living, think
ing and being. It comes from
our whole attitude of desiring
to walk alow enough to appre
ciate the beauty and joy of
every day living. It la a spi
ritual program,"

‘Cardinal’ Not
About Religion
"I don’t make films for Cat
holics or any other group," he
told a press luncheon. "I Just
want to make interesting films
that people of all faiths, or no
faith, will enjoy.
"IN THE CASE of "TheCar
dinal," he said, "I wanted to
show a cavalcade of those ti
mes between the wars." The
fact that the film comes at a
time of particular interest in
the Catholic Church and iti Va
tican council is just a lucky co
incidence, according to Pre
minger, He said work began on
the film three years ago.
As when the novel first came
out, parallels have been drawn
to the life of living churchmen.
But Preminger says the episco
pal characters in the film are
completely flctious,
REACTION TO the film on the
part of many churchmen has
been good, Preminger said, Se
