Public-Private
Cooperation For
Anti-Poverty W ar
WASHINGTON (NC) — The
Johnson administration has
brought more clearly into fo
cus the pattern of public-pri
vate collaboration in the quick
ening pace of the war against
poverty.
The second batch of projects
announced (E>ec. 16) by the new
Office of Economic Opportunity
totals 162 programs involving
$82.6 million and a host of go
vernmental, private, religious
and business groups.
THE FIRST, announced Nov.
24, involved putting $35 million
into a total of 119 separate
projects, many of which hinted
at further blending of public
and private resources.
In the latest announcement to
be made in the nine weeks since
the antipoverty effort got funds
from Congress, collaboration
is dramatized in new Job Corps
Centers, in several major com
munity action programs and in
work-study projects for college
students.
In Chicago, for example, the
$3,993,471 from the Office of
Economic Opportunity will help
Support a broad program in
which parochial schools have
joined. These schools will serve
with public schools as sites
for pre-school center for under
privileged children.
A similar community action
effort will be launched with
Federal grants to the Mayor’s
Committe<? on Human Resour
ces in Pittsburgh. Catholic
schools there will give facili
ties and staff to develop special
programs to help overcome im
pediments to learning among
all needy children and residents
in the impoverished areas in
which the schools are located.
COLLABORATION is not
confined to church-related in
stitutions. Major business cor
porations, in cooperation with
area universities, will operate
two of the three new Job Corps
Centers, residential institu
tions to train and educate dis
advantaged youths.
The International Telephone
and Telegraph’s Federal Elec
tric Corporation of Paramus,
N.J., will operate a center
at Camp Kilmer, N.J., and the
Ford Motor Company’s Philoc
Corporation will operate a cen
ter at Tongue Point Naval Sta
tion, Astoria, Ore. Both cor
porations accepted the job
training assignments for a4.7%
fixed fee on the contract price.
Nearly 450 colleges and uni
versities, many of them church-
affiliated or otherwise private
ly directed, have stated their
intention to join in work-study
programs, the Office of Eco
nomic Opportunity said.
The work-study projects will
help students of limited means
finance their college education
by working either off or on cam
pus. Colleges will be given
funds to help pay salaries of
students who work on campus.
Students also can work off the

Religion Held Absurd

Missioners Are
Still In Congo
ROME (NC) — There were
still about 320 Catholic men
and women missioners in the
rebel-controlled regions of the
Congo in early December, the
mission news agency Fides said
here. It information came from
DlA, the Leopoldville Catho
lic news service.
The Fides report lists 36
Catholic missioners killed in
the recent massacres in the
Congo, along with two Pro
testants, Dr. Paul Carlson and
the Rev. Joseph Tucker.
CINCINNATI (NC) — The
Board of Education here has
adopted a statement of policy
rejecting the total absence of
religion from public schools as
an ’’absurdity.*'
Unanimously adopted by the
board, the statement said that
’’absolutely no religion*’ in
public schools would be as out-
of-place as *'a completely sec
tarian viewpoint of religion in
education.”
SUBTRACTING religion from
education, the statement said,
“would require that religion
never be referred to, and con
sequently would require neglect
of a sizable amount of man’s
history and culture, including
our own American heritage.”
'^Such a position wold not
imply a neutral attitude, but
would support a philosophy of
secularism — a philosophy
which has no more right of
espousal than has any given
religious philosophy,” the
statement held.
Use of Christmas trees anc.
ornaments, and singing of
Christmas carols, Handel’s
‘ Messiah,” “America,” and
“Battle Hymn of the Republic”
all receive approval. “Certain
customs,” the statement ex
plained, “while directly or in
directly connected with re
ligion, have taken on a meaning

The House of Christmas
There fared a mother driven forth
Out of an inn to roam;
In the place where she was homeless
All men are at home.
The crazy stable close at hand,
With shaking timber and shifting sand,
Grew a stronger thing to abide and stand
Than the square stones of Rome.
f or men are homesick in their homes,
And strangers under the sun,
And they lay their heads in a foreign land
Whenever the day is done.
Here we have battle and blazing eyes,
And chance and honour and high surprise,
Rut our homes are under miraculous skies
Where the yule tale was begun.
A Child in a foul stable,
Where the beasts feed and foam;
Only where He was homeless
And you and I at home;
We have hands that fashion and heads that know
But our hearts we lost—how long ago!
In a place no chart or ship can show
Under the sky’s dome.
This world is wild as an old wives’ tale,
And strange the plain things are,
The earth is enough and the air is enough
For our wonder and our war;
But our rest is as far as the fire-drake swings
And our peace is put in impossible things
Where clashed and thundered unthinkable wings
Round an incredible star.
To an open house in the evening
Home shall men come,
To an older place than Eden
And a taller town than Rome.
To the end of the way of the wandering star,
To the things that cannot be and that are,
To the place where God was homeless
And all men are at home.
and tradition more general than
their religious significance and
have become rooted in the cul
tural fabric of the community.
Such customs should not be con
strued as sectarian indoctrina
tion.”
IN DISCUSSING religious
holy days, the policy statement
points out that pupils may be
excused from school on days
considered holy to their re
ligious faith. Teachers are in
structed that examinations are
not to be given, or new-work
started, on such days.
School choirs, orchestras,
and drama groups are permitted
to take part in programs which
present materials of religious
nature ”as long as the pro
grams are not conducted as ser
vices of worship, nor in a fash
ion to be offensive to any
group.”
Display of religious symbols
in the classroom is forbidden

“unless such display is intrin
sic to a subject matter unity.”
AS TO prayer, the statement
indicates that prevailing law
will “supersede local policies”
in the event of conflict bet
ween them. “As religious ob
servances, Bible reading and
prayer recitation are not per
mitted in the school,” the state
ment declares.
’This does not exclude, how
ever, the use of religious books,
including the Bible, in the in
structional program; prayer at
appropriate times, such as a
time of mourning or crisis; and
the inclusion of invocation and
benediction in public ob
servances, such as commence
ments. The prayer, invocation,
and benediction should not be
conducted in such fashion as to
be offensive to any member of
the audience or to force any
non - conforming members to
participate,” it said.
PHILADELPHIA (RNS)—The
Sisters of the Good Shepherd
have merged their Baltimore
Province with the Philadelphia
Province and will keep the pro
vincial center in Fox Chase
here.
The new province includes
five convents and schools for
socially maladjusted girls in
Pennsylvania; two in Maryland,
one in the District of Columbia
and one in South Carolina, a
spread of six Romas Catholic
dioceses.
MOTHER Mary Ursula, for
mer superior in Baltimore, was
named the new provincial. The
order also recently established
a central novitiate at Peekskill,
N.Y. and an affiliation with
Fordham University for sisters
to obtain-degrees in education.
The Sisters disclosed that, in
accordance with directives of
the Sacred Congregation for Re
ligious and to conform with
liturgical renewal, they had
greatly revised their daily mode
of worship and were using Eng
lish in their devotional assem
blies.
The order also has provinces
at Peekskill, Cincinnati, St,
Louis and St. Paul.
