Most important issue now being discussed in Captiol Hill cloak- rooms is the religious fight over Federal Aid to Education. This was brought to a head when Card inal Spellman hurled the “bigot charge at Congressman Graham Barden of North Carolina, author of the provision that no money ! from the education bill be used for | any religious school, whether Cath- olic, Baptist or Methodist Ever since, Congressmen’s offices have been deluged with mail—on| both sides of the question—some of | it bitter. One Congressman who met th issue early is Rep. Andrew Jacobs Indiana Democrat, himself a Cath clic, but who has defended Barden against Cardinal Spellman’s attack Going back to his home town,| Indianapolis, some time ago, Jacobs attended a Knights of Columbus meeting where he put the issue of federal education up to a large| group of Catholics. After lengthy debate the consensus was that feder- should not go to paro- only one who disagreed.” says Congressman Jacobs, “was the priest The non-clergy Catholics | all felt there was great danger to the church if federal money was | used for church schools. Eventually ! the government might dominate the thinking of schools. a those STATE OVER CHURCH Congressman John McSweeney of Ohio has taken a similar view Writing to Father Edward S.

The answerer with economic situa- there is always the possibility that parochial schools would lose their identity as such should they re- ceive public funds since public school officials are entrusted with the task of establishing educational standards which may run counter to the teaching of the particular church sponsoring parochial schools. This would result in clashes of | ideology “I firmly believe that a great danger would be encountered by parochial schools should they re- ceive public tunds and thereby come under the control of state boards of education.” On the other hand, Congressmen Lesinski of Michigan and Ken- nedy of Massachusetts, both Cath- and both Democratic mem- | bers of the Education and Labor | Committee, are endeavoring to bot- tle the bill in committee, and state quite frankly that they are moti- | vated by church opposition. | CONGRESSIONAL BACKTRACK Representatives Richard Nixon of California and Harold Velde of Illinois, both Republicans, did some fast backtracking when the House Un-American Activities Com- mittee held a showdown, closed- door session on their demands to investigate Federal ‘Judge Samuel Kaufman and the Alger Hiss trial. In fact, the two Congressmen al- most tripped over themselves deny- ing that they made such demands, though this did not come until after some blunt sermonizing by committee colleagues. “The charges you are making against this judge are little short of cutrageous,” crackled Democratic Representative Francis Walter of Pennsylvania, “particularly when you use this committee as a politi- cal sounding board. Even if the charges were true, this committee has no business investigating judges to satisfy the political grudges of any of its members.’ Nixon and Velde tell back on the old defense of being “misquoted” by the press. “We never demanded that this ommittee investigate Judge Kauf- man,” they claimed. However, Representative Burr actual newspaper reports of their attacks on Kaufman. ‘Newspapers all over the country,” he said, “stated that you did de- mand an investigation of the judge, speaking as members of this com- mittee. That's pretty conclusive to me, Nor did they dissent when Chair- an angry flourish of his gavel, rul- ed: “Without objection, we will in- form the press that it is not the vestigate Judge Kaufman.” of parochial school children are taxpayers, I know that you will agree with me in that these par ents have the freedom of choice between sending their children to a public or a parochial school. “I wish to point out also that e o 0 0 0 0 0 0 0o 0 . .
