Broad Family Life Policy Set .Forth Full Equality For Wives Is Advocated NEW YORK (UP) — A broad family life policy approving remarriage of widows and advocating full equality for wives has been set forth by an official of the National Council of Churches, leading voice of Preotestantism in the United States. The policy was outlined toy the Rev. William Genne, executive director of the council's family life department. It was offered as guidance to the 37 million members of 30 Protestant and Eastern Orthodox churches represented by the council. Genne said the council wanted to clarify the family life matters for Protestants because Pope Pius XII said Monday Catholic women should subordinate themselves to their husbands and earlier had advised widows not to remarry. ”We hope the public will understand there is a Protestant point of view on these things,” Genne said. Various Protestant denominations are not in complete agreement on family matters, Genne said, but there is near-unanimity on these points: —The individual is responsible for acting in accordance with his own conscience. —Widowhood is not necessarily a higher spiritual state nor any more desirable than remarriage. The general feeling is that marriage should be a team arrangement, with neither partner holding a necessarily upper hand. GUARD _ (Continued from Page One) patch of the 59th (Arkansas National Guard) Division. The switch from paratroopers to guardsmen was the latest move in a carefully planned "disengagement" of military force from Central High Schoql. The 101st had been cutting down the size of its guard at the school for several days. Late Monday, the cordon of troopers who -had ringed the school since Tuesday night was pulled down and replaced with walking patrols of two men each. The guardsmen posted the same kind of skeleton force today. Judge Davies Replaced Military officials said about 200 guardsmen were assigned to the school area today; but only about 20 of them were actually walking guard on the sidewalks immediately adjacent to the campus. Ten guardsmen, armed only with billy clubs, were inside the building. All barricades were down at the school, and early morning traffic moved freely.

School Board Asked To Rule On Issue ISTA Membership Question At Stake SHELBYVILLE (IP) — The Shelbyville City School Board kept secret today the results of a late-in-the-night session to decide whether a teacher must belong to the Indiana State Teachers Association in order to hold his J<m. The board was asked to rule On the issue by David R. Thayer, Hope, who teaches mathematics in a Shelbyville grade school. Thayer was a Democratic member of the House in the 1957 Indiana Legislature. Board members held a closed session Monday night. They were reported to have “leaned” toward Thayer’s argument that a teacher should not lose his job or sacrifice pay during an annual convention for withdrawing from or refusing to join the ISTA, a powerful Hoosier teacher organization headed by Robert H. Wyatt as executive secretary. The board was reported to be planning to give Thayer its decision before announcing it publicly. Thayer said he asked for the ruling after Wyatt criticized bills introduced by Thayer in the Legist ure. Thayer hoped the board would rule that a teacher does not have to belong to the association to have job security, and that he gets paid for two days during which schools traditionally close for the annual October ISTA convention, even if he is not a member.
