It deserves to be more than just a Cinderella in the health household. It deserves ma jor attention.” A Negro congressman from Michigan told the subcommittee that the lack of a Federal birth control program is directly re lated to the "breakdown of the Negro family structure" in his state. Rep. John Conyers, Jr., said poverty - stricken families find it impossible to stay to gether when there are too many children for the parents to sup port. He said a year’s supply of birth control pills now costs about $25 more than many Negro couples can afford. The White House conference was also supported by JohnMar- tin, Republican national com mitteeman from Michigan, and by Mrs. Gladys Avery Tillett of Charlotte, N.C., American re presentative to the United Na tions Commission on the Status of Women. MARTIN SAID it is important' that the population program be "viewed in a completely non political framework" and with strong bipartisanship. ■w m ww -m m* w w* mwww WITH BRADFORD COMPANY BLESSED SIMON OF TRENT Thomas H.

TRENT, Italy (NC)—-Dioce- san officials are considering suppressing the local venera tion of Blessed Simon of Trent, a small boy allegedly killed by Jews in 1475. Suppression is being consid ered because new historical studies indicate that circum stances surrounding his death are different than those earlier believed and because of the re sulting possibility of anti-Sem itism. The chapel housing the re mains of the child has been closed to the public for the past several months, and the Mass and precession assigned for his feast day (Marc h 24) were suppressed this year for the first time. ACCORDING to medieval writ ers, Simon was kidnapped by a J ewish doctor and killed to ob tain Christian blood to be used in the synagogue during the Jew ish pasch. Suspects, under tor ture, admitted their guilt. Butler’s Lives of the Saints, commenting on this account, states flatly: "No scrap of serious evidence has ever been adduced which would show that use of Christian blood formed any part of Jewish ritual’’. Father Igino Rogger, Trent diocesan priest charged with studying the case, told the N.C. W.C. News Service that a new scholarly study of the matter has been published by German Father W, P. Eckert, O.P., of the Thomas Institute of Cologne. His article is in a book pul^ lished in January, 1965, and entitled: "Hatred of the Jews, Fault of the Christians?" IN BRIEF, Father Eckert contends that there is no evi dence that Jews murdered the child but that public hysteria turned on them and groundless ly judged them guilty of die crime. Father Rogger stated further that because of the research of Father Eckert and others, Archbishop Alessandro Maria Gottardi of Trent has ordered a review of the case of Blessed Simon of Trent and the sup pression, for the present, of any veneration of him. Father Rog ger also noted that the boy has never been beatified or canoniz ed officially by the Church. Veneration of him has always been a local matter. At the re quest of the bishop of Trent, Pope Sixtus V permitted vene ration only within the Trent area, as was the custom of the time. The title of "Blessed” at tributed to Simon was not con ceded by the Holy See but by the bishop of Trent. It was no until 1634 that beatification and canonization processes became the undisputed prerogative of the Holy See. IN ROME, officials of the Congregation of Rites confirm ed that the entire matter is un der study but refused further comment. Dr. C. T. Vivian above and A. J.

Private-Public Conference Unity MrsCeceKaB >" c J Mrs. Cecilia Valentino Wynne WASHINGTON (NC)— Non public schools emerged as full- fledged partners in the total U. S. educational enterprise during the fifth White House Conference on Education. Instead of being on the outside looking in, nonpublic educators were solidly on the inside— and with their sleeves rolled up, working for the general good. They and their schools were firmly accepted at the meeting. "If there is an ecumenical spirit abroad in the world to day," remarked Msgr. Frede rick G. HochWalt, secretary of the National Catholic Educa tional Association, "it was certainly characteristic of this meeting." His view was shar ed by other nonpublic educa tors. MORE THAN 700 leaders in education, business, labor and other fields attended the two- day meeting (July 20-21), the first White House Conference on Education in 10 years. They met in general ses sions and panels to discuss such topics as "Education for World Responsibility," "Education and the Special Stu dent" and others. There was general agreement that the meeting came at a unique moment in the history of American education, when the federal government is beginning to move into the school aid pic ture in a massive way. U, S. Commissioner of Edu cation Francis Keppel told the conference opening session that Federal expenditures for edu cation in the 1966 fiscal year will reach $3.3 billion, twice the figure for the previous year and more than 20 times the to tal a decade ago. HEALTH, Education and Wel fare Secretary Anthony J. Cele- brezze underlined the legisla tive picture, saying Congress has enacted “more than a dozen major pieces of legisla tion” in the area of education in the past two years. The participation of nonpublic educators in the conference was geared to the problems of American education as a whole rather than the special needs of the private sector. Officials of Catholic schools spoke at many of the panels dealing with general educational topics. For example: "Msgr, William E. McManus, Chicago archdiocesan school superintendent and panelist at a session on "Jobs, Dropouts and Automation," said many so-called dropouts are in fact "forceouts” who have been compelled to leave school. He accused high schools of using che term dropout to cover their own failure to provide meaning ful programs for slow learnfers. —Sister Clare Marie of the National Catholic Conference for Interracial Justice called the teacher the "key" to suc cessful school integration at a panel on desegregation. She warned that many teachers are undergoing "partial withdraw als" from the problem of in tegrating the classroom be cause they lack support from other quarters. —Sister Jacqueline Grennan, president of Webster College in Webster Groves, Mo., caution ed educatirs at a session on in novations in elementary and secondary education against a "vested interest" approach that makes them resentful or suspicious of new ideas. —George Schuster, assistant to the president of Notre Dame University, said at a session on undergraduate education that a revolution is needed in the teaching of the humanities in college. "Student dissatisfac tion with the lifelessness of the humanities is universal,” he declared. NONPUBLIC educators indi cated that they were pleased with the general conference at mosphere and attitude. ST.

See story this issue. "The fact that about 75 Cath olic educators gracefully ming led with their public school col leagues in every one of the gen eral and special sessions is a sign of the times, an indication that at long last public and pri vate schools are being viewed as partners rather than compe titors in American education,” commented Msgr. McManus. "My impression," the Chi cago educator added, "was that few if any of the participants made any distinctions between public and private schools n their discussion of the ast edu cational probl ms lo whi h he conference addressed itself. Speakers occasionally slipped into the phraseology of *the American public schools,’ but 1 what they had to say was gen erally applicable to both public and private schools.” MSGR. McMANUS described the conference as "highly in telligent, constructive and re strained." ’There was little evidence of jockeying for partisan position or of speech making on behalf of vested interests,” he said. Msgr. Hochwal t said the con ference was "notable*' for the fact that the "abrasive” argu ment over church-state issues in relation to church-related education "did not emerge as in past conferences.” Ladies Auxiliary K of C #4358 The Ladies Auxiliary of the Knights of Columbus Council #4358 will hold its monthly meeting on August 2 at 8:00 p.m. in the home of Mrs. Wil liam B.
