Professor Virgil C. Blum, Jesuit Priest ,
Makes a Strong Case for Federal
Assistance to All Parochial Schools
Virgil C. Blum, S. J.. professor
• of political science at Marquette
University, has for a long time
advocated federal aid to private
schools. He makes his strongest
case in "Freedom in Education —
Federal Aid for ALL Children,"
published by Lippincott-
His case is strengthened by an
introduction by an eminent Jew-
ish educator and Orthodox leader.
Prof. William W. Brickman, of the
University of Pennsylvania Grad-
uate School of Education, who
maintains that "it is the obliga-
tion of the state to make certain
that all children have educational
freedom, including those who re-
quire freedom for religion in edu-
cation."
Fr. Blum draws upon many
Jewish authorities to support his
case. He makes a strong point
S. Africa Government
Curbs Anti-Semitism.
JOHANNESBURG, So. Africa
(JTA)—"The present government,
since it came into power in 1948,
has expressly repudiated anti-Semi-
tism and has indeed exercised a
welcome restraining influence
against those of its followers who,
from time to time, have sought to
air or exploit their anti-Semitic
sentiments," it was emphasized
here in a report by Arthur Suz-
man, chairman of the public rela-
tions committee of the South Afri-
can Jewish Board of Deputies and
vice president of the organization.
'"At the same time," Suzman
added, "we would welcome a
more positive attitude by the
government in excluding from
this country, as it has the right
to do, notorious and avowed
anti-Semites who can serve only
to stir up racial bitterness in the
country."
Suzman reviewed salient events
affecting the Jewish community
since the last congress of the
board, held in 1962. • These in-
cluded the differences between Is-
rael and South Africa on South
Africa's racial policies at t h e
United Nations. He indicated how
the first reactions of criticism of
South African Jewry were super-
ceded by the realization — pin-
pointed in a statement by the
prime minister, Dr. Verwoerd —
that South African Jews could not
be held responsible for the policies
of Israel, which were matters for
Israel's citizens alone to decide.
Polish Jewish Children
Reported Indifferent to
Cultural, Social Body
LONDON (JTA)—The children
of Polish Jews "have no organic
connection" with the work of the
Jewish Cultural and Social As-
sociation in that country, the Folk-
stimme, Yiddish newspaper pub-
lished in Warsaw, declared in the
latest issue.
The Folkstimme listed t h e
agenda for the forthcoming fifth
national convention of the Asso-
ciation, declaring that education of
the Jewish children will figure
most prominently at the conven-
tion. The problem, stated the news-
paper, was how to hand down the
values of the association to the
next generation, stating that the
issue was a matter of education.
Meanwhile, the Jewish His-
torical Institute, which has its
headquarters in Warsaw, an-
of the new trends in favor of
Jewish day schools. He quotes
Dr. Joseph Karninetsky, national
director of Torah Umesorah-
National Society for Hebrew Day
Schools—who wrote: "Only in
the Day School . . . is it possible
to raise a generation of in-
formed, dedicated and intelli-
gent Jews, and future leads of
the Jewish community .. ."
Another Jewish authority he
leans upon is Dr. Alexander Mit-
telman of Sherman Oaks, Calif.,
who said: "Our educational philo-
sophy is based on the principle
that all education must be God-
centered."
