'Well, just fc- " & ! ' Y V Election of conflict of The conclave of the Sacred Col lege of Cardinals to choose a suc cessor to Pope John XXIII begins on Wednesday. Balloting starts on the following day. It is expected by observers that several ballots will be taken before the signal is given. that a new Pope has been chosen. The cardinals of the Roman Catholic Church ask the guidance of the Holy Spirit in electing a new Pope. It Is always to be remembered, however, that the men ' through whom the Holy Spirit is to act are irau numan Deings, eacn witn nis own understandable preconceptions. Their choice will in large measure determine the direction in which the Church will move in coming years. Pope John's aggironamento ' (modernization) was not popular with all cardinals, as the first ses sions of the Ecumenical Council last winter made evident. Fourteen tra ditionalist cardinals on Nov. 4 ex pressed to Pope John in a letter their "disquietude over false doctrines" being discussed at the Council meet ings. Most of the leading cardinals made clear their bent, whether con servative or liberal, in the debates. The 14 conservatives form a nu cleus of about 25 cardinals. These '.include Archbishop Francis J. Spell man and Archbishop James Francis Mclntyre from the United States and 'Italian cardinals who hold key posi tions in the Curia, the Vatican's cen tral administration, who make up the traditionalist bloc. Some of them were most distressed by Pope John's moves toward an accommodation with the Communist bloc. Some wanted the militant anticommunism of Pius XII revived. Some had no taste for John's ecumenical aspira He never Marbles, the dictionary (Web ster's Third New International) tells us, is "a children's game that is play ed with . . . little balls and that con sists typically in trying to knock out of a certain area one or more of the balls arranged inside a circle by hitting the balls with another ball usually propelled by the thumb." These little balls are made of "agate, glass, porcelain, baked clay, steel" and range from about "' inch to about 1 inch in diameter." ! The lexicographer who wrote these definitions, one feels in his bones, never felt the smoothness of a steelie or the roughness of a com mie, wouldn't know how big a torn mie is, let alone a quarter tommle. What do aggies or pureyg mean to such a man? If he ever propolled a marble with his thumb, one suspects that he did so In a manner the little boys' term for which cannot be used in a family newspaper. Actually, marbles is a game of much antiquity, wide distribution, and uncertain origin, once popular with all classes and not just with children. Tradition, both at Oxford and Cambridge, attests that the game was formerly prohibited don'f sit there!' -C, new Pope not simply a liberals, conservatives felt smoothness of steel ie "1 tions. A group of about 30 liberals is headed by Giovanni Cardinal Mon tini, Archbishop of Milan, an acute student of international politics and a reformer. The known favorite of John, Cardinal Montini is one of the principal papabili men of papal stature. He declared in a funeral mass sermon on June 7: "John has shown directions for our road which it would be wise to follow. Can we turn away from this bold path to ward universality of the Church and Roman ecumenism in the light of Church history to come?" Cardinal Montini is one of a handful of Italian candidates who would continue fully Pope John's re forms. There are several others in high positions in the church, includ ing the three other U.S. cardinals who support Montini. The three from the U.S. are James Cushing, Albert Gregory Meyer and Joseph Elmer Ritter. . , . There are about two dozen car dinals who stand roughly in the mid dle. Of the college of 82 cardinals, 32 are Italian, so the choice of an Italian Pope is likely, though not inevitable. The lines are not as clearly drawn as the above might indicate. As the Guardian of Manchester has observed: "It would be a mistake to see in this election any straightfore ward conflict between liberals and conservatives, or to look for a clear issue." The Ecumenical Council so flrtd the imagination of the world that no successor, however conser vative, would fail to call a' second session. This was, indeed the major monument of a Pope who had reach ed the hearts of men in a few brief years as perhaps none of his 261 predecessors had done. among undergraduates on the steps of the Bodleian or the Senate House, the Encyclopedia Britannica notes. Dickens alludes to the game of "al ley tors" in Pickwick Papers, as De foe had done before him. Marbles used by Egyptian and Roman child ren before the Christian era are to be seen in the British Museum. All this is by way of preface to the cheerful news that marbles are and marbles (the game) is on the way back. Marbles are increasingly available in toy shops (perhaps be cause of the fried marble jewelry craze), and indulgent grandmothers are receiving requests for "Dad's bag of marbles," which certainly muct still be up in the attic. Marbles games, impromptu or organized, have returned to school recreation areas and play grounds. Actually, in a sense the game never has really been away. The National Marbles Tournament, with contestants sponsored by daily newspapers and service clubs, was inaugurated in 1924. This year's champion in the boys' tournament at Wlldwood, N.J., will be crowned on June 21. Knuckle down, and no inchies! Washington 4 Merrp-go-round Food Congress colorful spectacle in Washington By Draw Pearson WASHINGTON For more than a week, one thousand delegates to the World Food Congress have been meeting in the State De partment auditorium without eat ing together. This is partly because austerity rather than sumptuous banquets is the theme of ie meeting; part ly because the delegates, coming from one hundred different coun tries, have such different religi ous and racial eating habits that getting a common menu is diffi cult. Moslems, for instance, can not eat pork, Hindus cannot eat beef. But today (June 18) all will sit down at a common luncheon at the Sheraton Park Hotel. Chicken and vegetables have been chosen as a safe diet for all religions. The World Food Congress is an extraordinary demonstration of how people-to-people friendship can operate. Most of the dele gates are not here at the expense of their governments. Some coun tries are too small and their bud gets too low. So most of the dele gates, some in colorful African robes, some in Arab headdress, had their expenses paid by trade unions, farm organizations, and private individuals operating through the Freedom from . Hunger Foundation. Altogether it raised $85,000 to pay for dele gates' traveling expenses to Washington. Thus the two Louisiana penny pinchers, Sen. Allen Ellender and Rep. Otto Passman, who spend the taxpayers' money traveling abroad while worrying about gov ernment waste, in this case won't have anything to worry about. They won't even have to worry about the manner in which in dividual Americans entertained homes, or how Jane Freeman, beauteous wife of the Secretary of Agriculture, arranged for 600 of the delegates to see the exciting cinerama "How The West Was Won." This, incidentally, brought heme to tho delegates the fact that the United States did not start off as a rich, skyscraper country, but rather was as back ward and deficient 100 years ago as some of the underdeveloped areas are today. Some of the most fascinating Ending of bracero program seen boost to farm wages By Robert Strand UPI Staff Writer SALINAS, Calif. (UPD The ending of the bracero program is expected to boost farm wages sharply and to increase the price of fruits and vegetables. And it may set off a chain reaction of far-reaching conse quences which could seriously disrupt numerous communities. A bracero is a Mexican who comes to the U.S. for a few lim ited months to help harvest crops. Last year 195,000 roamed as far east as Indiana. They are nothing like the stereotype idea of Jose dozing un der a sombrero. "They kill them selves" working, a Sacramento, Calif., worker once complained at a government hearing. Here in Salinas, Clancy Wilson, a field supervisor, explains that a bracero is eager because "he comes to us hungry." One of his workers, Luis Tor res, 35, said that in his own Zacatecas village he earns only 10 pesos (83 cents) a day. . He hopes to take home enough money to buy a cow for his family of six. In tills country braceros are paid prevailing wage rates. Most bra ceros work in Uie southwest where earnings vary between 50 cents an hour in parts of Arkan sas, New Mexico and Texas and $1.33 in California. Generally, braceros do the "stoop labor," bending to pluck vegetables under the hot sun 10 to 12 hours a day, seven days a week. They live in long, narrow dormitories, isolated from town, while their families remain in Mexico. The bracero program began during the Korean War under an agreement with the Mexican gov ernment. Mexico benefited be cause returning braceros were a major source of dollars and con tributed new ideas to their vil lages. Last month the U.S. House of Representatives, at the urging of labor and church groups, refused to extend the program beyond Dec. 31. Its opponents said the braceros kept U.S. wage rates down. Now that 5.9 per cent of the nation's workers are unemployed, they said Mexican help is no longer needed. According to former Labor Sec retary James P.

Publiahed dally axrtpt Sunday and cnaln houdajs by The Urnd ttulivun Inc. females ever to gather in Wash ington are attending the World Food Congress. Most statuesque is Madame Adolfo Lopez Mateos, wife of the President of Mexico. One American lady reporter gave her the top compliment one fe male can give to another: "She has the most beautiful legs in the conference." Sitting on a terrace overlooking the rich green Potom ac countryside, Mme. Lopez Ma teos compared it with Mexico rich and green in the south, but arid, mountainous, and hard to cultivate in the north. Mexico's population has doubled in the last ten years; its food production, though increasing, has had a hard time keeping pace. Mme. Adoula, wife of the trou bled President of the Congo, is serene, poised, untroubled. Her round young face is framed by a silk handkerchief turban imprint ed with bright red butterflies. Her feet, below flowing Afircan robes, are stuffed into matching red pumps with long pointed toes. Her jewelry is gold, with several rings crammed on her fingers. "We must not only find food be cause of angry men," says Mme. Adoula in perfect French, "but we must train our people to say and work in the Congo." Most magnificent jewelry is worn by Mme. Kamsiah Ibrahim, wife of a Malay Mohammedan doctor who is head of the Wom en's Institute, which in the Ma lays works with rural women. Looking at the variety of food in the State Department cafeteria, she recalled that the United States had been untouched by war. . . Princess Souvanna Phouma, wife of the Laotian ruler, did not wor ry about bringing native dress. She bought her pale lemon-colored linen suit in Paris. . .Lady Rama Rau, sari - clad, caste marked aristocrat from Kashmir, is president of the International Planned Parenthood Federation. She applauded the "courage" of Arnold Toynbee in speaking out for birth control. . .Most of the women ar young, most of them mothers. These are the delegates who have come to Washington from all over the world to debate the problem of feeding the other half of the world. publican, its presence forces Americans to work under condi tions which are "an affront to the conscience of tho American people." But the House action was large ly unexpected. Farmers, who had wanted a gradual phase-out, are demanding, where can they get substitutes? California, which uses braceros all year long, alone has 72,900 at peak periods. Farmers say they cannot ob tain enough domestic field labor because the work Is too hard. Al so, many workers now must leave their families at home while trav eling to distant harvests. The American agricultural worker is lucky if he works nine months a year. Since his earnings include no fringe benefits such as unemployment and medical insur ance, he goes on relief when out of work. Local volunteers no longer turn out in large numbers to help dur ing critical times. Farmers say teen-agers nowadays don't want much to help and aren't much good when they do. . Wag Hike Proposals The answer, the AFL-CIO says, is to drastically increase wages. For example, some California labor leaders believe that a 50 per cent wage Increase next year would produce plenty of workers. This argument is supported by the world's largest lettuce grow er, Bud Antle, a maverick in his industry. Next year will be a headache, he says, but higher wages will attract enough workers and they may be able to form permanent local work forces. That would pose some giant problems for numerous commun ities. American farm laborers have wives and children in this coun try. But areas now using bracer os, have no houses and no schools for such families and no eager ness to see their relief rolls soar. Salinas, population 50,000 illus trates the magnitude of the prob lem. It is the heart of a valley producing half the nation's lettuce and artichokes and at peak peri ods it now uses 13.500 braceros. In addition, city manager Tom Dunn fears that American agri cultural workers will include large numbers of alcoholic bums, flooding jail facilities. Other Sali nas citizens say they are frankly afraid minority groups would come to live full-time. mTranrTiwiirin'PrTa High court goes out of way to encourage objective study of religion in schools (EDITOR'S NOTE What It the significance of the Supreme Court's decision that religious exercises In public schools ara unconstitutional?

Diesel truck production in the United States last year hit a re cord high but it was only a fraction of total truck pro duction and engine makers keep talking about the potential market in the world in 1962 were gasoline-powered; but out of 1, 200,000 produced in the United States, 43,800 only were diesel equipped. In the United States, that comes down to about one in 28. But in Japan, a late- comer to the truck manufacturing field its truck production has grown to an an nual rate of around 800.000, com pared to 100,000 ten years ago about one truck in every nine is a diesel. There are higher proportions in other auto producing nations whose statistics are known. Of 224,000 made in West Germany last year, 90.000 were disel equip ped; in Italy, seven of 10 were diesel-driven; in Britain, about one in two. France, on the other hand, had only about one in five of the 180, 000 trucks built in 1962 equipped with diesels. But the development in recent years of compact, highspeed die sels has led the manufactuers of these engines to look toward the delivery truck, the lighter models, as a market with big potential. Britain's F. Perkins Limited supplies compact disels of this type for several big U.S. truck builders; In May, it reported shipments to customers in this country were 50 per cent greater than a year ago, and said it had a heavy backlog of orders. The company last year accounted for more than six per cent of the diesels installed in trucks built in the United States; its current out put is larger than the combined production of all U.S. diesel pro ducers. However, the U.S. purchases of these British-made products are are relatively small share of the total British export market of diesels. Commonwealth nations take more than 35 per cent of the diesel export, and Europe about 20 per cent. Eight of 10 diesels produced in Britain last year were shipped abroad. Eshkol named by Mapai party JERUSALEM. Israel (UPI) The majority Mapai party agreed today to nominate Finance Min ister Levi Eshkol to replace David Ben-Gurion as premier of Israel. Ben-Gurion, known as his coun try's George Washington, quit as premier, minister of defense and member of the Knesset (par liament) last Sunday. The Mapai was expected to move quickly to recommend Esh kol. 68, as his replacement to President Scheno Shazar. Eshkol, who calls himself a disciple of Ben-Gurion, is considered a mod erate.

Fish are fond of music, says a professor. Maybe we should teach worms to sing. A back lists famous trials of the past fifty years, but doasnt mention any youngstsra. riculum. The court majority thus took a stand very similar to that adopted earlier this month by the general board of the National Council of Churches. Monday's 8 to 1 ruling was un equivocal in saying that public schools may not continue the widespread practice of opening each school day with a religious exercise which usually includes the recitation of the Lord's Pray er and the devotional reading of a passage from the Bible. Surveys indicate that about halt of the nation's public schools now follow this practice. It is much more common in the South and East than in the Midwest and West. The court said that such exer cises, whether compulsory or vol untary, violate "the command of the First Amendment that the government maintain strict neu trality, neither aiding nor oppos ing religion." Departed From Issue But the majority opinion, writ ten by Justice Tom C. Clark, went on to speak of the "exalted" place which religion occupies in Ameri can society. And it departed from the specitic legal issues before it and offered schools and students these words of advice: "It might well be said that one's education is not complete without a study of comparative religion or he history of religion and its relationship to the advancement of civilization. "It certainly may be said that the Bible is worthy of study for its literary and historic qualities. "Nothing we have said here in dicates that such study of the Bible or of religion, when present ed objectively as part of a secular program of education, may not be effected consistent with the First Amendment." The court's strong plug for ob jective teaching about religion was warmly welcomed by a num ber of religious leaders. J. Irwin Miller, president of the National Council of Churches, noted that the council's policy- By lie S. Grant Bulletin Staff Writer Summer's here! Only yesterday I took up the hems on my new wardrobe for the season. Two sleeveless tie silk dresses with fullish skirts, that got that wiy by virtue of impressed pleats. These are what you call convert ible dresses. They can go square dancing, over a stiff petticoat. I lived over two-score years, be fore I discovered stiff petticoats. I always avoided them like tour ing relatives, until I found the kind that are tight at the top and full at the bottom. Now they tell me they're all that way. Also, I thought they would be hotter than a suit of armor, with all those lay ers of ruffles. Actually, they work sort of like insulation. Cool. The square dance club we be long to chose its official outfit. Gray and charcoal striped gamb ler's pants for the men, with white western dress shirts. Char coal and white striped dresses for the gals. They are supposed to make the dresses, and whip up ties for the men out of the scraps. The stripes in the dresses go up and down, except for the bot tom tiers of the skirts. There, the stripes go 'round and 'round. This is what you call diplomacy. The up-and-down stripes will make the plump gals look slim. The round-and-round ruffles will make the thin gals look plump. That way, everybody's happy. The color was a compromise, too.

The council statement said that "no person is truly educated who is not aware of the vital part played by religion in the shaping of our history and culture, and of its contemporary expressions." H suggested that information about religion be taught in schools as an essential part in courses in social studies, literature and the arts. Expresses View The Ri. Rev. William F. Creigh ton, Episcopal bishop of Washing ton, said the court decision "clearly opens the door for an in creased emphasis upon our re ligious heritage as a regular part of the public school curriculum." One of the great concerns ol religious leaders has been thai banning prayer and Bible reading might lead to a total silence or the part of the public school! about God. The objective teaching about religion, which was en dorsed by the Supreme Court majority, could resolve thai problem. The court majority went ti great pains to knock down the belief which has been advanced by a number of religious leaders and some historians and constitu tional lawyers that the First Amendment merely forbids the government to show preference tc one religion over another. Thej have argued that this was all the founding fathers had in mind. But the majority opinion assert ed sharply that "such contentions in the light of the consistent inter pretation in cases of this court seem entirely untenable and oi value only as academic exer cises." The court said the "commanc of the First Amendment" actually is that "the government maintair strict neutrality, neither aiding nor opposing religion." feagebrushuigs ; ;, '; - New clothes big problem; many "looks" are offered the color won't flatter ANYBODY, That's what you call politics.
