Y. - IUPD - Dr, James E. Allen Jr., state edu cation commissioner, today di rected school districts to re frain from daily religious ex ercises, even to what sometimes referred to as 'vol untary' action by pupils.' The directive reinforced Allen's already stated deter mination to abide by the U.S. Supreme Court decision on re ligious exercises in public schools. At the same time, the com missioner urged the state: public schools to give renewed emphasis on teaching moral and spiritual values. "Our young people need today as never before," Al len said, "to acquire the in ner strength that comes from knowledge and understand ing of these values." Appeal By Parents The ruling came on an ap peal by parents of students in the Levittown Union Free School District No. S on Long Island. The local board of educa tion on Sept. 4, 1962 adopted a resolution that each school day begin with the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag followed by "reading or recitation of an appropriate excerpt from the Bible singing of the fourth stanza of 'America' or ... an excerpt from the Declaration of In dependence or other histori cal document significant to our national and spiritual her itage." Allen said it was apparent that the Levittown board "de liberately set out to evade the constitutional proh I b i t i o n against daily religious exer cises in public schools" by providing a list of alternative exercises. He said it was only the daily morning devotional ex ercises with which the Su preme Court decisions and his own were concerned. Dismissed Appeal Allen said he dismissed an ppeal against use of the Pledge of Allegiance because the Supreme Court had not been called upon to decide its constitutionality. However, he said the New York Court of Appeals was presently con sidering whether the words "Under God" In the pledge were unconstitutional. In June, 1962, the Supreme Court declared unconstitution al a prayer written by the state board of regents. Two months later Commissioner Allen ruled that a stanza of the "Star-Spangled Banner" designated a prayer by a local district - also was unconsti tutional. In a letter accompanying copies of the Levittown de cision to school districts across the state, Allen said the ways and means that pub lic schools can supply moral and spiritual teachings are many and varied. "They are found In the study of history, literature, music and art," he said, "and in all subjects in which the great religions have played a strong part in the shaping of aspirations and growth." Lawyers Ask Federal Court Jurisdiction For Violators of Injunction in Virginia United Press International Attorneys for 352 persons charged with violating an anti-demonstration injunction at Danville, Va., said they would ask a federal court to take jur isdiction over their cases. The lawyers are to appear before Judge Simon E. Sobel off of the U.S. 4th Circuit Court of Appeals in Balti more, Md. If Sobeloff refuses to switch the cases from Vir ginia courts to federal courts, attorneys said they would re quest a stay of the trials until Sobeloff rules on the consti tutionality of the injunction. Mobile County, Ala., school board attorney George Wood was expected to ask the Su preme Court in Washington to stay a federal court order that Mobile schools be deseg regated next month. There were a number of racial demonstrations in North Carolina Wednesday. About 300 Negroes marched in downtown Goldsboro, N.C., Wednesday night and police arrested 33 Negroes in a pro test demonstration at a bar becue restaurant operated by a Negro for whites only. About 300 Negroes gath ered at the Winston-Salem city hall Wednesday night, Oregon Fire Conditions Worse By United Press International Forestry officials warned today that fire danger condi tlons in Oregon are worsen ing and that the northwest part of the state would be getting its warmest and driest weather of the summer in the next few days. Possibilities of lightning in Southern and Eastern Ore gon added to the threat. The Todd Canyon fire. which covered about 1,000 acres near La Grande, was reported in "pretty good shape" by State Forestry of ficials today. They said the blaze had been trailed after high winds Wednesday caused new troubles. Four small new blazes were quickly controlled on state land Wednesday. The largest of three blazes in the northeast district was held to four acres. One small fire was brought under control in the Lobster Valley district of Western Oregon. The U.S. Forest Service re ported a 160-acre fire in the m a tilla National Forest, some 15 miles northwest of La Grande, was fought by 80 men Wednesday night. It was expected to be controlled today.
