Disagree On Aid To Parochial Schools Controversy Builds Up Head Os Steam By LOUIS CASSELS United Press Stall Correspondent Roman Cath o1 i c parochial schools are now educating about 12 per cent of America's chil- / dren. ’ 1 If these Catholic schools closed their doors, the already-over-crowded public school system would have to find classrooms and teachers for an addi tonal 4,600,000 students. Do these facts constitute a valid argument for public financial support of church - operated schools? Many Catholics believe they do. Many non-Catholics emphatically disagree. Both sides have been expressing their views with. increasing vigor in recent months. Although no immediate showdown is in sight, the controversy is clearly building up a head of steam Catholics contend that the parochial school school system has become an integral part of American education; that it is performing an essential public function by educating millions of children for whom there is no room in the public schools. Save Taxpayers Money They say parochial schools are saving U.S. taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars a year, and that it s only fair that some of this money be returned to the Catholic parents who pay for this auxiliary school system through tuition fees and contributions. Some non-Catholics are sympa- _ Ihetic to this argument—. But others agree with 1 the position taken by the National Council of Churches, largest U.S. Protestant organization. The council contends that the full cost of supporting private school systems should be borne "by those who choose to mainItain them.” Any direct or indirect i government support of religious schools, it says, wouldH>e as repugnant to the Constitute as a federanl subsidy for churches. The Supreme Court has ruled on several occasions that the j First Amendment to the Constitution— the “separation of church j and State” amendment — forbids use of tax funds for direct support of church-operated schools. But it has also ruled, in the Everson case of 1947. that the Constitution does not bar a state I from providing free school bus transportation for parochial students- The court took the position this- is a service that he. govern men renders, not to the ’ religious school itself, but to the individual children who attend it. A growing nutjnber of Caholics believe that this doctrine justifies other forms of government aid to .parochial students or their parents. AsiC”Fax Credit One proposal widely publicized in the Catholic press was put forward by the Rev. Virgil C. Blum, a- professor at Marquette University. He suggested that the constitutional problem could sidestepped either by a “tax cfedit” i for parents who pay tuition at pa- . rochial or private schcxils, or by Tbafeh government subsidies to the "individual children who attend such schools. The tax credit idea has beeTft incorporated in nearly a score of bills introduced in Congress this year. None of them have reached the stage of committee action, however. Most Catholic educators are concentrating on a more immediate goal. They want to make sure , that Catholic schools and students participate in any federal aid to ; education that is enacted by Congress I this year. Resolutions to that effect have been adopted by three Catholic educational groups in the past few months. t Motorist Is Fined On Traffic Count Ralph G.

Scattered Reports Os Sighting Sputnik Reported Sighted Over United States CAMBRIDGE. Mass. (UP'— Smithsonian ' Observatory scientists today sifted through over a dozen sighting reports of “bright objects’’ in the sky in an effort to pinpoint one or more as the newest Soviet satellite. Dr. John White, public information director for the observatory'. said the reports had come from scattered parts of the nation. Several from Western sections “looked pretty good,” he said. White said that dawn today would be another favorable sighting time when the satellite passed over Australia Officials said that observers in the United States probably would not get another chance to glimpse the new “moon” until tonight. A Moonwatch team in Edinburg. Tex., reported four objects, flashing through the sky between 10:50 and 11 p.m. e.d.t. Thursday night. White said two were reported as “bright as planets” while the other pair could be seen only through telescopes. The first two, he said, were "about’’ the time Sputnik 111 was expected in that area. Four sightings by Moonwatch teams im California ■ were all "promising”, according to White. He said bright objects were seen at San Francisco, China Lake. Whittier and San Jose between 12:37 and 12:43 ed.t. today. Other reports came from West Palm Beach and St. Petersburg, Fla., St. Paul, Minn., Boulder. Colo., and half a dozen from the Greater Boston area. None were confirmed. “ f > i - kA HAIRDOS, OR DONTS — Thinking about a new hairdo? Well, here are a couple fresh from Paris. (InternatioMlJ
