2 B Catholic Laymen Affirm Belief in ReligiousFreedom Washington - WPI) - More than 150 prominent Catholic laymen Issued a joint state ment today affirming their be lief in religious freedom and church-state separation. " The bipartisan group said debate over the religious issue in the presidential campaign has made it clear that large numbers of Americans "seri ously doubt" t h e . "commit ment of Catholics to the prin ciples of a free society." . "To the extent that many Catholics have failed to make known their ' devotion to re ligious liberty for all, to- the extent that they at times. have appeared to seek sectarian ad vantage, we must admit that we have contributed to doubts about our Intentions," the statement said. "It is our hope that this statement may help to dispel such doubts." Signers included Clare Boothe Luce, former ambas sador to Italy; Sen. Eugene J McCarthy, (D-Minn.); Gen. J Lawton Collins, former Army chief of staff; Phyllis McGin jcy, poet and essayist; James B. Carey, president ol the Electrical Workers Union; Ed ward Bennett Williams, poted Washington criminal lawyer; Victor F. Hess, Nobel prize winner of physics; Gov. Mi chael V. DiSalle of Ohio; Sen.

OCTOBER 6, 10 Letters Tell Reason For Support Given To Both Candidates Canby Hunter Dies Of Heart Attack , . Heppner IUPD A Canby hunter, Delbert H, Foote ,29, died of a heart attack Wed nesday afternoon while with a hunting party about 50 miles southeast of here. Foote and his party had been hunting In the area since the opening of the 'deer sea son. He was the third hunter to die of heart failure since the season began. Washington - (CQ) - For eign policy is the big issue in the minds of supporters who write to Vice President Rich ard M. Nixon.' But the supporters of Sen. John F. Kennedy (D-Mass.) who write him are more con cerned about domestic issues and about recent attacks on his Catholic faith. : , . , To find out who volunteers support to the Presidential nominees and why, Congres sional Quarterly looked at the mail, that both nominees re ceive from their supporters. Nixon and Kennedy campaign officials told CQ that . the mail, which, was sampled on Sept. 19-20, represented a fair cross-section of the type of mail that Nixon and Ken nedy have been - receiving from supporters in recent weeks. Many of the letter-writers either volunteer help or would do. so if asked. Much of this mail is routed to state or local headquarters to re cruit volunteers where they are most needed - at the grass roots. Most of the letter-writers volunteering their support are housewives or elderly per sons. Many of the letter writers are retired men. 'And much of the mail from the elderly bears California, Texas and Florida postmarks. Nixon letter-writers usual ly tell Nixon that they sup port him because of his ex perience in handling foreign policy matters. They often mention that he and his running-mate, former United Na tions Ambassador Henrv Csk ot Lodge, are particularly adept in the foreign policy field. A typical letter to Nixon from a woman in Memphis stated: "I intend to vote for you because I feel that you" are experienced in dealing with foreign nations and in being Eisenhower's right-hand man; also you did so much to put Alger Hiss behind bars that you are anti-Communist." Nixon has received a great deal of mail from supporters concerned that his recent knee injury will curtail his campaigning. Some who have had knee injuries themselves offer him advice. Some volun teer to help him campaign, thereby hoping to lighten his campaign load. Nixon supporters frequent- Photographic Reduction Helps Account for Language Reports New York -IIOT- Photogra phy's amazing ability to re duce mountains to microscop ic molehills on film has been put to use to help American scientists and military men keep track of Russian-Ian guage reports of Soviet achievements and problems The Russians don't print everything they know, of course. But they do write a steady stream on all kinds of scientific and- military activi ties Much of this is of tremen dous Interest and value to U.S. Investigators and planners - or would be if the compara tive handful of translators able to turn Russian into Eng lish were able to keep up with the flood. Devices Developed Lack of enough human translators to do the job has resulted in development of several devices to translate Russian automatically. One of the most promising of these is a new Air Force machine whose "memory" is a photographic disk capable of recording and storing half a million Russian words and id ioms on a single 10-inch diam eter surface. When improve ments in the machine are com pleted as planned It is expect ed to translate into English more than 2,400 Russian words a minute. The Russian vocabulary is recorded photographically on a glass disk coated by the Eastman Kodak company with a special high-resolution emul sion. In use, the machine re ceives Russian words to be translated in the worm of a perforated tape. The resulting signals result in rapid elec tronic scanning of the disk un til the machine finds the matching English words and prints them automatically on a typewriter. Reductions on Way Even smaller photographic reductions are on the way, Bernard Fouquet of the na tional bureau of standards photographic research section recently made a photographic copy of the first page of the Bible which occupies only one- millionth of the size of the original page. Yet the image when magnified, Is clearly legible.

As a practical matter, the procedures are too slow for rdutine use. But the system, including a camera similar to a high-powered microscope, is expected to lead to even bet- ten photographic materials by helping to develop a standard method for testing an emul sion's resolution, or ability to record detail. Pictures in 10 Seconds ' Pictures in a minute, a seeming photographic miracle when Dr. Edwin S. Land an nounced his now famout Pola roid camera and film system in 1947, are outdated now it's pictures in 10 seconds. A new Polaroid film that makes finished pictures in as little as eight or nine seconds after the shutter clicks was an nounced this week and dem onstrated at the Photokina 60 Photographic Trade show in Cologne, Germany; In addition to cutting de velopment time to one sixth of the 60 seconds formerly need ed, the new film has Improved sharpness and clarity. The quick-developing film is avail able now- In type 47, 3000 speed rolls. Ultimately all Polaroid black and white films for amateur use will be converted to 10-second devel opment. Prices remain the same as the present types. The new 3000-speed film can be distinguished from the 3000-speed film originally in troduced last year by a star printed near the date stamp on the box and by a special notice On the film wrapper inside. . Processing time is not criti cal provided development Is allowed to proceed for eight or nine seconds, at normal temperatures, after the film tab is pulled. Continued devel opment for even as long as 60 seconds or more will pro duce usable, but quite con trasty, prints. But what picture taker with even an ounce of impatience in him is going to wait for 60 seconds when he can view a finished print in only 10? ly tell the Vice President that they liked his acceptance speech at the GOP national convention. Many praise his wife and their two young daughters. Some Nixon letter-writers are highly critical of the Democratic party in general. Some question the wisdom of electing a Catholic President. A few are concerned that Kennedy will bring his whole family-brothers and brothers-in-law - into the White House if he is elected. But Kennedy Is rarely personally criticized in Nixon's mail. Kennedy Mail Kennedy has received , a great volume of mail from persons of all faiths deploring attacks on his religion. A typ ical letter from a man in College-Park, Md., stated: "I'd happily serve on any commit tee to combat this evil . . . We Methodists are deeply ' dis tressed concerning some of the big mouths and ' tiny minds who are presently ped dling medieval history." Many Kennedy supporters write to , the Senator about their personal problems, which mainly . center on fi nances. Many identify them selves as middle-aged and eld erly persons. They are con cerned about unemployment, high food and drug prices, low pensions and the depress ed economy of coal- and metal-mining towns. Kennedy, mail contains much criticism of Adminis tration policies. A woman sup porter ill Toledo, Ohio, ad vised Kennedy that it was time to clean up "a Repub lican mess" in Washington. President Eisenhower gener ally escapes personal criti cism in the Kennedy letters. But a man-in Tulsa writing Kennedy asked: "What kind of experience for being Pres ident could Nixon have pick ed up from Ike except how to play golf?" ' Some Kennedy mail is crit ical of Nixon. Kennedy sup porters warn him to beware of Nixon's campaign tactics on the basis of past Nixon campaigns. Some also com plain to Kennedy about the 'one-party press" and write that they have been unable to hear or see his speeches on radio or TV. Kennedy, in particular, gels a lot of letters from support ers Offering advice and va rious schemes on how to win the election. Some supporters want him to campaign in the "give-'em-hell" r o u t i n e of Harry Truman. Others want him to announce now that Adla'i E. Stevenson will be named Secretary of State In a Kennedy Cabinet. (Copyright i960. Congres sional Quarterly, Inc.)
