A balanced cooperation between
various religions and the state is
necessary if the American people
are to realize their national -as-
pirations and goals, Prof. Jerome
G. Kerwin of the University of
Chicago said here yesterday.
Separation of the church and
state in the strict sense is not
possible in our society,-
In any society, what the public
tolerates and what it desires are
manifested in its institutions, he
continued. Americans in general
insist upon religious persons in!
public offices and upon religion
in public ceremonies.
Foreigners Amazed
Prof. Kerwin pointed out that
Motorcyclist

Clell Boyer, '62, is in "good"
condition at Unive'rsity Hospital
today after receiving a hip iniury
Friday when his motorcycle was
struck by a car at the corner of
Forest and Washtenaw Ave.
The driver of the car, Charles
A. Pell of Ypsilanti, told police he
had stopped at the intersection
and then pulled out as a large
truck pulled into Forest, obstruct-
ing his view of Boyer who was fol-
lowing the truck.
Pell was issued a ticket for fail-
ure to yield to on-coming traffic.
k,

foreigners are often amazed at!
the numerous references to the
Deity that occur in political
speeches. The American people in-
sist that things turn toward re-
ligion and that there be a benevo-
lent attitude toward it.
In spite of this insistence, Amer-
icans have not assumed enough
responsibility to see that religion;
is well integrated with the other
aspects of public life. The nature
of our institutions is inconsistent
with what we as a people desire.
Religion's fear of being "cor-
rupted" by politics has led to the;
general opinion that national and
state politics are .dishonest and
unworthy- of great aspiration.
True Understanding Impossible
This hostility, along with sus-
picion of individual religions and
general satisfaction with the
status-quo, has made a true un-
derstanding of the relationship
impossible.
'"We are on the verge of changes,
very great changes," Prof. Kerwin
said. Great attention has been
focused upon church-state rela-
tionships during the recent pres-
sidential campaign resulting in
new and vigorous attempts to de-
fine the relationship and coor-
dinate it with political life.
The political scientist said that
to achieve a realistic relationship
between church and state in the
United States, religious citizens
must have deep convictions, and
must be willing to make known
and explain their point of view.

"We must find where we agree
and where we - disagree, and we
must have respect for disagree-
ment. Truly religious people must
overcome their fear of being "cor-
rupted" by politics and seek pub-
lic office.
"Universities should play an im-
portant part in 'deepening under-
standing of the issue, as theology
is gradually becoming 'respectable'
as an academic discipline."
No General Coordination
Though many theologies have a
few common elements, there is no
way of coordinating them on a
general basis, Prof. Kerwin said.
"We must achieve a balanced
cooperation among the various
religions and the state which does
not give the advantage to people
of no religion.
"This cooperation will not sud-
denly become a fixed condition,
but must grow and fit into a
rational, peaceful way of life."
