"Faith...
... It a priceless gift that every
ens can posses . . . a source of
lov.. comfort and strength which
is sorely needed in these troublad
times. Only you and I, as parents
can give this gift of Faith to our
children. If we want them to
know the oy of Faith tomorrow
. . , we must give our children the
gift of Faith today."

bring them to worship this week
li win involve five govern
ment agencies, several private
organizations, and hundreds of
scientists, physicians, sociol
ogists and educators.
Officials disclosed that the
program calls for history's first
experiments with pregnant mon
keys, an unprecedented study of
infants from their first mom
ents of life, and for a vastly ex
panded effort to develop better
methods of treatment and re
habilitation. The goal is to reduce, if not
to wipe out, the great human
waste which cerebral palsy and
mental retardation cause every
year.
There are an estimated
4(800,000 mentally retarded
Americans,' many of them vic
tims of cerebral palsey. Ap
proximately 1.500,000 of these
are children. They are an im
mense problem for themselves,
for their parents, and for society
as a whole. In many cases, their
brains are so undeveloped or so
damaged they cannot even feed
themselves. The new govern
ment program is an answer to
the demands of Congress and
parents groups for action in a
field which, by general admis
sion, has been notoriously
neglected for years. It also is "n
effort to exploit recent scientific
discoveries which offer some,
promise of progress for the first
time.
