me into contact with a number of
respected Protestant 1 e a d e rs.
Many of them are worried over
this trend in our society.
Is this tension a temporary
thing? Will it soon be relieved?
I don't think so.
As Dr. Robert McAfee Brown
wrote recently in the Protestant
magazine, Christianity and
Crisis, controversy is "sure to
continue." He points to the like
lihood that Sen. John F. Ken
nedy of Massachusetts may em
erge as Democratic candidate for
the presidency in 1960. It is
clear, Dr. Brown writes, that in
the next three years "all of the
old stock arguments about 'Cath
olics in politics,' plus a good
many new ones, will be hauled
out, aired and employed with
an increasing intensity, bitter
ness and vigor."
Act of Discrimination? .
One source of religious ten
sion which is certain to be with
us for a long time is the current
dispute over the use of public
bus transportation for parochial
school children. This important
issue flared up in A u g u s ta,
Maine, only a few rnonths ago.
More recently, the state of Con
necticut was sharply divided on
this same question. A 133-133 tie
vote in the state Legislature was
broken by the speaker's ballot
in favor of a bill which author
izes Connecticut townships, on
the basis of local option, to ex
tend the benefits of this safety
measure to all children.
Naturally, Catholics feel that
to deny this public-welfare bene
fit to a child because he gets
off the bus at a parochial school
rather than a public school is
an act of discrimination. They
cite the Supreme Court's 1947
decision in the Everson case.
Catholics demand this right for
their children. Pr otestant
spokesmen in Connecticut and
elsewhere vigorously oppose it.
Information invariably helps
to solve problems of this kind.
I have for some time advocated
that Catholic parents make an
effort to talk over this and re
lated questions with their Prot
estant neighbors.
Catholics believe in religious
education for their children.
They want their youngsters to
learn geography, a r i t hmetic,
history, languages and science.
But they also want them to learn
about God, about their duty to
know, love and serve Him. They
feel that this can be done best
in the atmosphere of a parochial
school.
The Supreme Court has clear
ly upheld their right to choose
such schools for their children.
With untold sacrifice to them
selves they have built and are
maintaining these schools. In
addition, they pay their taxes as
citizens to support the public
schools of the nation.
If Catholic parents would only
discuss the ways and wherefores
of Catholic education with their
Protestant friends, a lot of ten
sion would be relieved. Some
Catholics are doing this, of
course. But many more of them
should do the same. Most Prot
estants have just never had an
opportunity to find out, from
a Catholic, what Catholic schools
are all about. A great deal of
sympathy and u n d e rstanding
would come from these neigh
borly conversations. There is too
much fairness and good will
among American non-Catholics
for us to anticipate any other re
sult. Bible School Contest
