Call It by Its Right Name
Yesterday in this space, we commented about
one f oirn of religious bigotry. Today, let's talk
about another kind.
We refer to anti-Catholicism.
It has long been a rather strong, though we
are convinced a minority, prejudice in the United
States. Most of the time it is a latent force, felt
or spoken quietly.
But it is coming to the surface, these days,
undoubtedly the result of the fact that the lead
ing contender for the Democratic nomination for
the Presidency, John F. Kennedy, is a Roman
Catholic.
. a . .
THERE are several rationales for anti-Catholi-
cism.
There is, for instance, the simple, unthink
ing prejudice which arises for a difference in re
ligious viewpoint. This is the same bigoted and
stupid motivation which is at the root of most
anti-Negro bias, as well as that aimed at still
other races or religions at anyone, in short, who
is "different"
There is the "defensive minority" viewpoint,
arising from having lived among a Protestant
minority in a mostly-Catholic community, and
based on the understandable resentments which
being in a minority can breed.
THERE is, in addition, the sincere concern for
a principle of government, the separation of
churcn and state, which may be a matter of leg
itimate concern, but which is not limited solely
to the Catholic church a fact too many people
forget. 1
And finally there is the prejudice based, at
least in part, on theological grounds, on teach
ings and canons of the church, which some peo
ple fear would destroy our democracy if carried
to their logical extremes, and were implemented
by Catholic office-holders.
These then, as we see it, are the principal
sources of anti-Catholic bias, although there are
undoubtedly otherjess prominent ones
IT IS, we think, possible to disagree, perhaps
even violently, with some of the teachings of
the Catholic church, and still retain a respect
for it as an institution, and for its communicants
as fine, patriotic, dedicated Americans; people
we can, honestly and sincerely, know as good,
close friends.
In our personal relationships with our Catho
lic friends, we do not let visions of some of their
beliefs, which may differ from our own, destroy
our friendshiD and resoect.
Why, then, should their religious oeneis De
any bar to their holding public office even the
most exalted one?
i
l
T MUST be admitted
nnrl positions of the
and strengthened the latent forces of anti-Cath-
olicism.
This usually occurs where church dogma lm
ninrres on matters of trovernment policy, or on
the beliefs and rights of others. The position of
the church on birth control, for instance, is fro
zen into law in some of the New England states.
The Legion of Decency has offended many by
its view of motion picture morality a view which
some consider narrow.
There are other similar instances which can
be quoted.
But what, ' essentially, do all these nave to
do with the qualifications of an individual for
public office? We say nothing.

Ohp hpsirs nf t.ho "influence" the Pone would
have on a Catholic president. Well, the Pope has
been notably ineffective in influencing the gov
ernments ot France ana naiy ior tne past cen
tury or two countries which are predominantly
uainonc.
Some of America's most distinguished and
respected statesmen, short of the Presidency,
have been Catholics. A number of governors
are of that faith, and hardly anybody is dis
turbed. WOULD Senator Kennedy, a man who was
wounded in his country's sen-ice, and who
lost a brother in the same war, be any less patri
otic, any less dedicated to honest service, in pub
lic office than in military sen-ice?
. We cannot believe it. To answer "yes" is to
denv both his sincerity and his patriotism.
If given an opportunity, we will vote for, or
against, Senator Kennedy on the basis of what
we believe to be his qualifications, and the quali
fications of his opponent, . not on the basis of
what church either attends.
a
THE Senator himself declares, and we believe
with sincerity, that he wants no votes simply
because he is a Catholic, any more than he wants
any votes cast against him solely on the same
basis. A man's religion is his own business.
It is probably too much to hone for that it
will not be mucn of an issue in tne campaigns
to come. It already has been raised, both in Wis
consin and in West Virginia.
But at the very least, we should remember
that in all elections we are being asked to pass
judgment on a man as a man and as a public
sen-ant; not as a member of a church.

"Inconvenience"
To the Editor: On April 23,
1959, there ocurred a debate
in the Senate on an amend
ment offered by Sen. Holland
of Florida to give the states
specific power to deal with
sabotage of electric lines and
other facilities during strikes.
The state of Florida found
itself helpless to deal with
sawing of power poles and
dynamiting of installations.
Among other casualties was
a dairyman with 170 cows.
In opposition to Sen. Holland's
amendment to enable states to
protect themselves against
such catastrophes, Sen Kenne
dy, on page 6043 of Congres
sional Record No. 64, opined:
Mr. President, I oppose the
amendment offered by my
friend from Florida. Many of
the examples cited caused
great inconveniences to the
people of the areas involved.
If the carriers do not operate,
that is an inconvenience, but
every strike involves incon
veniences. Those 170 cows
could have been milked by
hand."
Thus Sen. Kennedy, who
aspires to be President, thus
sumarily disposes ot an "in
convenience." John Q.-Stewart,

More About Dogs
To the Editor: Regarding
the small historic town of
Jacksonville, a letter publish
ed in the April 21 issue signed
"taxpayer" represents the sen
timents of a number of people.
Especially those traveling
Uirough our small town.
The object of the dog con
trol law in Jacksonville is ap
parently to protect the lawns,
gardens, etc., of the citizens.
Would these citizens who are
raising all the fuss take a
good look at their neighbors'
yards? Old car parts-junk-
refrlgerators-not to mention
various livestock in general
from goats to cows-far worse
than the old family dog
asleep on the front porch.
If you are really interested
-Just drive slowly into town
and it speaks for itself.
To enforce the dog law
would require a full time dog
catcher. If you are leally in-tcrested-agaln
- Just meander
around the streets after the
10 o'clock bell has rung and
also again in Uie early morn
ing hours.
In my opinion, every dog
thnt is dumped off In the
town, or is a stray - and the
town is small enough that
every dog not belonging to
the town is Immediately rec
ognizable - should be picked
up by the dog catcher, any
dog thnt Is not licensed should
be picked up, and also any
dog that Is ill, not fed prop
erly to the point he is living
off garbage cans, be also
picked up. Many of the so
called dog lovers In Jackson
ville are guilty of this neglect
of their "beloved" family dog.
Some of these dogs are even
left to fend for themselves
while the family goes off on
a week end Jnunt. These are
the dogs that will suffer if
the law is put Into effect. For
if these dogs must fend' for
themselves while free, what
must they suffer when they
are tied and have absolutely
no defense?

To the Editor: Names.
Place-names and phrases. How
they do intrigue us as to their
origin. Like the 'Orphan
Annie' name of our state that
is still doubtful of its why
and wherefore. And the an
swers, so simple and logical
if and when they come.
For Instance, a while back
in the 'council-corner' of our
dearly loved humble home
over-looking a white sea of
valley pear - blossoms and
snowy summits of the Slski
yous in the blue distance, we
were renewing old-times with
good neighbor 'snoos-eatin'
State of Mainer' Charley Bur
rlll. The puzzling phrase of
'gettin'-the-Mitten' came up.
My colorful reminiscencer re
marked, "I escaped that un
wanted honor by going to sea
at 13 years old to have better
health, learnln" to climb with
others to let out the t' -gallants
for dying winds, gazing down
unafraid at the st'-board sea
far below, then the trim deck
and port-side as the old Glen
garry Castle square-rigger
rolled to the ground-swell.
"But I had heard a-plenty
of 'getlin'-the-mitten,' an old,
old State of Maine saying
when a love-lorn swain got
Uie brush-off."
Neighbor Burrill went on
to say as he remembers, that
many years before, a capri
cious young female was play
ing the field in a hard to get
way. A hard to brush-off lov
er was seeing her home,
Charley was not sure If it
was from Aunt Dinah's quilt
In' party, but the stars were
glittering on the crunchy
snow. A pale moon might
have shown the girl with back
to the comforting door of her
home as the persistent young
swain insisted "for another
date. But she waved him off
in a 'get-lost' manner. He
made a wild grab for the hand
he wanted so badly. But alas
and also alack, all he got
was the mitten as the frisky
gal slipped her hand out,
slammed the door shut behind
her and clinched the dismissal
by yanking out Uie friendly
latch-string.
Of course, the story went
round and round how young
so-and-so 'got the mitten' but
not the girl. Least-awny, it
got to Michigan where it was
common in whispered gossip
among females, old and
young. Girls being then in
rather short supply, they
could be more choosy than
those of today. But the hu
miliating phrase is long gone
now and the mitten seldom
seen.

THE 'KENNEDY CRISIS''
Washington - The supreme
political fact of today Is an
ever-sharpening "Kennedy
crisis" which
is gripping the
whole Demo
cratic party
just below the
surface.
Never have
c ircumstances
so peculiarly
and so power
fully focussed
on a single
William
white man.
Senator John F. Kennedy
runs himself for the presiden
tial nomination. But he is be
ing run for the vice-presidential
nomination by every sin
gle one of the rival forces
which hope to stop him for
the big job.
There Is now one view of
unexampled urgency and una
nimity within all factions of
the party: Kennedy must, sim
ply must, accept the second
place if the first turns out to
be beyond his grasp.
SO, IF THIS drive for the
Iod nomination should fal
ter-say by a poor showing in
the current savage West Vir
ginia primary "popularity con-test"-he
will be under almost
unbelievable pressures to ac
cept the vice-presidential des
ignation from the Democratic
national convention. Support
ers of his rivals for the presi
dency are the first to say this.
Kennedy himself has declar
ed repeatedly that for him it
must be the top spot or no spot
at all. Men all over the Demo
cratic party will stop at al
most nothing to persuade him
or to force him to reverse this
decision, if he fails for the
first place.
For the belief is now gener
al among the Democratic pro
fessionals that "the religious
issue" has become so embitter
ed that a ticket wholly exclude
Ing Kennedy would invite
election-day disaster. It is now
also undeniably possible that
a ticket having his name at
the top might be very danger
ous, too.
Practically speaking, it does
not matter much who started
it." The overwhelmingly plain
fact is this: Inside and outside
the state, the West Virginia
primary election of May 10 is
going to be treated by millions
simply as a contest between
a "Catholic," Senator Kenne
dy, and a "Protestant" rival
for the presidential nomina'
tion, Senator Hubert H. Hum

For months the rumblings
of political discontent have
been coming from Venezuela,
with news dispatches from
Caracas telling of arrests and
political conspiracies almost
commonplace.
Up to now, the army had
been Betancourt's mainstay.
Betancourt took office in
January, 1959, in an era of
reform which saw Venezue
la's first free elections in 12
years.
Betancourt, who leans to
the left politically, pledged to

If ENNEDY himself has now

never wanted. He is openly de
nouncing the theory that s
man's religion is any proper

office.
Angry men on Humphrey's
side claim in private that Ken
nedy has solicited backing
simply as a Catholic. Angry
men on the Kennedy side
claim in private that some
Humphrey people are delib
erately inflaming anti-Catholi
cism. This correspondent does
not believe either for one mo
ment. He has excellent rea
sons to be sure that neither
Kennedy nor Humphrey has
willingly raised this business.
He is equally convinced,
however-as would be any man
writing for publication who
reads his own mail - that the
so-called "religious issue" is an
enormous fact of life, deeply
regrettable though it is. So
convinced, too, is nearly ev

the national Democratic par
ty. Thus an extraordinary
dilemma confronts them all
on the unhappily likely as
sumption that religious differ
ences will be more and more
rubbed up as the pre-conven
tion campaign goes on.
IN THESE circumstances a
Democratic convention re
jection of Kennedy for the
presidency might offend great
groups of Catholics. An ac
ceptance of him for the presi
dency might be used by many
who are anti-Catholic, or who
oppose having a Catholic pres
ident, as an argument to go
Republican.
But the most dangerous'
thing of all would be for the j
convention to wind up with :
Kennedy nowhere on the j

refuse the vice-presidency it j
would be taken to reflect his I
