ATLANTA, GEORGIA LOUIE WORLEY- Prop. PL 5-6989 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.

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 JJ 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 HI L TIMORE-PHILAOELPHI4 Good Shepherd Nuns Merge 2 Provinces “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.
