IldltM'l Rot — T1 fnllowlnf article It re-prUiUe

THIS week Senator John Kennedy faced the Mous-
A ton Ministerial Alliance and delivered a forth-
right speech on the most touchy issue in tdie pres-
ent campaign namely whether his Jgtnent P
governmental issues would be influ£nced) or his
conduct altered by pressure from the Catholic heir-
archy in case he were elected President of the
United States
This Is an Issue that Is guaranteed to generate
more heat than light But it Is not a chimera nor
a pure product of unthinking bigotry Senator
Kennedy last night admitted that inl947 while
he was as he put it “ novice in politics ’ he can-
celled a scheduled speech at the dedication of a
non-denominational chapel for the Four Chaplains
In Philadelphia Many Americans were curious to
know whether as President of the United States
Mr Kennedy's appointment book would be super-
vised by church leaders ’
Last night Senator Kennedy said emphati-
cally "No!” "I want” he said "a chief executive
whose public acts are responsible to all groups and
obligated to none— who can attend any ceremony
1 service or dinner his-office may appropriately re-
quire of him— and whose fulfillment of his presi-
dential oath Is not limited or conditioned by any
religious oath ritual or obligation”
There remain of course the liberally-ouoted
sections of the Canon Law and various papal bulls
and encyclicals which opposed public schools which
advocated the forcible suppression of ‘error’ (in-
eluding Protestantism) wherever the Church was
sufficiently powerful to impose that force which
lamented the separation of church and state etc
Senator Kennedy dismissed these as coming
from Catholic leaders “usually In other countries
frequently In other centuries” and stated flatly I
do not consider these quotations binding upon my
public acts”
This still leaves some confusion about what is
meant by Church discipline for these statements
were not advisories but were laid down as law
It is not clear how much an individual American
Catholic like Senator Kennedy may ft more the clear
provisions of the Canon Law without putting his
Immortal aoul In jeopardy What Is meant by
“discipline” if there Isn’t to be some penalty for
violating it?
But Senator Kennedy’s remarks seemed to
draw a clear distinction between American Cath-
olicism and Catholicism as It is practiced in aome
other parts of the world He correctly and prop
erly quotes the "American Catholic bishops who
came out in favor of separation of church and state
12 years ago and there is no doubt that the Amer-
ican Catholic leadership has actively supported the
principle of religious tolerance at least “as far as
the United States is concerned
The question has been raised as to what Mr
Kennedy if he were President would do if Con-
gress passed a bill authorizing funds for the dis-
semination of birth control Information in coun-
tries that are now sinking into chaos because of
rocketing overpopulation This of course is so far
a hypothetical question But there is nothing hypo-
thetical about the Church’s violent opposition to
any contraception except continence and any par-
ticipation in or advocacy of mechanical birth con-
trol has been adjudged a grave error if not a mor-
tal sin So what would a Catholic President do
with his pen poised over such a bill?
We thought Mr Kennedy spoke very plainly:
“Whatever Issue may come before me as' Pres-
ident— on birth control divorce censorship gam-
bling or any other subject— I will make my decision
in accordance with what my conscience tells me
to be the 'national interest and without regard to
outside religious pressure or dictates And no power
or threat of punishment could cause me to decide
otherwise"
There is no reason to believe that Senator
Kennedy was not telling the truth He would prob-
ably never repeat the mistake that he made In boy-
cotting the reverent dedication in Philadelphia
WILLIAM J EDWARDS was elected president of
o“ the Scottish Rite reunion class of 167 members

Rise in Personal
Income Is Surprise
By SAM DAWSON
AP Biulnesa News Analyst
NEW YORK (AP)— Perhaps you
are surprised to read that
personal Income has risen to a
record high Particularly sur-
prised If in your case you haven't
noticed any such trend Perhaps
downright resentful if your own
affairs have taken the opposite
tack
But the government says that
the total of personal Income has
risen again and is now W78 bil
lion a year This persistent rise
has been a comfort In recent
months when many other econom
ic statistics have been disappoint-
ing or disquieting
The government's ireport on per-
sonal Income as of August Is less
comforting than In previous
month for several reasons
The monthly rise was the small-
est since February And the 2300-
milllon Increase over July at an
annual rate was the exact
amount by which federal pay-
checks rose as a result of the
pay hike ordered by Congress
Adding In Increase by state and
local authorities the total of gov-
ernment paychecks was up $300
million to 249 billion a year
Running second to government
payrolls was gain In federal
transfer payments chiefly from
a rise In unemployment benefits
of 2400 million to P91 billion a
year
Other types of Income showing
modest rises were those from the
service ‘ industries dividends and
personal Interest payments
Even more Important perhaps
are the Hems that declined
The drop in personal Income
firm other types of paychecks
gives the economists little com
fort as they ‘-View Immediate
prospects
In manufacturing wage and sal
ary payments dropped by gl J bil-
lion a year to 2375 billion Farm
income was off by gSCQ mlllioe to
til l billion year
Professional Income end rental
payments were unchanged
There are other ways of sising
up government statistics on per
steal Income besides that of Just
wbt kind of endeavor Is bringing
McALRTCR NIWS-CAPITAIL FRIDAY
that Khrushchev should think It
necessary to say he’s keeping
hands off In the elections
But what effect will he have on
American voters in choosing the
next president If he blasts the
United States In blind fury? That's
one question by itself
But what effect will be have If
Elsenhower lets him get away
with It without ripping into him
a repetition of what he did In Par-
is when Khrushchev Insulted him
to his face?
It could create sympathy for
Elsenhower and the Republican
ticket with good results for Nix-
on It could have Just the oppo-
site effect
What If Elsenhower suddenly
stops being mild and rips into
Khrushchev-putting him on the
defensive? WUl that help Nixon?
These are possibilities since no
one is predicting what Khrushchov
will do when he gets here particu-
larly If he gets angered
Anolher one has been raised by
in more and what is paying lesa
One is the effect of the cost of
living This has been rising to re-
cent months but at a slow pace
so that most of the faster gain
to personal Income has represent-
ed real purchasing power
But if the cost of sen1 ices goes
on creeping higher and especial-
ly if the price of goods -should
take a forward spurt — which
seems unlikely now— the slow-
down to rise of personal Incomes
will show up quickly in consum-
er spending habits

CAPTAIN EASY
In Hollywood
Old Theater
Giving Way
To Progress
By BOB THOMAS
Hollywood ap - shed a
tear for Lei Angeles' Para-
mount Theater soon to vanish In
the name of progress
Tills week an auctioneer gaveled
away Its mighty pipe organ and
other fixtures In preparation for
the advent of the wreckers Here
is one Angeleno who will feel sad
when the walls come tumbling
down Many a Saturday afternoon
of my youth was lost watching the
wonders on that vast stage
Oh what shows there were! I
can remember a slim crooner
named Bing Crosby playing the
professor and singing “Boo-Boo-Boo"
to -a classroom of chorus
girls Years later I recall a vocal-
ist in the Tommy Dorsey band
named Frank Sinatra singing in
pinpoint spotlight while the
darkened theater remained
hushed '
Those were the post-vaudeville
days when every first-run movie
house had its own stage shows
The Faramoubt ' had the best
thanks to the showmanship of
Fanchon and Marco
Now the stage shows bare dis-
appeared and aome of the big
downtown theaters are victims of
the rush to the suburbs The Para-
mount opened to 1973 by the late
Sid Graumaa as the biggest thea-
ter in town ended playing rock
n roll shows end horror bills It
will be replaced by a SSftory of-
fice building
‘I had a chat with Marco Wolf
who operated the Paramount with
his sister Fanchon from the late
20s until 1961 They sold their
theater Interests two years ago
and he Is now a Christian Science
practitioner Fanchon is retired es
Mrs William Simon and enoying
her children and grandchildren
‘ “At one time we hired 2000
performer and had 100 shows on
the road" Wolf recalled “We
were the first to get blgname
performers to appear hi movie
houses They an worked for us
from Mae Murrey and Julian El
tinge to Eddie Cantor and Al
Jolson"

Dear Editor
Before Mr Thomas and many
others like him hand their liber-
ties and freedom over to the Pope
of Rom by branding sermons
concerning Catholicism as “hate"
sermons 1 suggest they look at
the facta
1 am not very much up to dale
on what happened under either
administration However I have
studied the Bible and Catholicism
and know a little about what
they teach I also know that most
good Catholics (and there ere
several) and most Protestants do
not know the teachings nor the
history of Roman Catholicism
I can easily see why the Cath-
olics do not want religion to be
brought up They want to keep
everyone to the dark as to what
they teach at least for a while
Their tfoe trine is contrary to
the Constitution of the U S
juon oi uw u a
speech freedom of religion pu
lie schools and separation of
church and state Of course they
can sometimes deny this They
have a doctrine known as mental
reservation that permits them to
lie' if it would suit better than
the truth
I now quote from the Catholic
Ency XI 695 ankle on Perjury
“When mental reservation is per-
missible it is lawful to corrobo-
rate one‘4 utterances by an oath
if there be an adequate cause

machinery of the courts to de-

a thing which is very certain it
is that if the American people

fierce hatred of the generality of
the priests of Rome against our

Pay TV Proposed
Theaters
Plight Seen
As Financial
By HAL BOYLE
NEW YORK (AP)— The Ameri-
can theater Is to one way
like a Bowery bum
Everyone knows there la some
thing wrong with it and nearly
everyone has figured out a way
to lead It to salvation
Ralph Bellamy president at
Equity the actor's union has a
solution too He sees pay trie vi-
sion as tha remedy
To Bellamy the plight of tha
theater s financial rather that
artistic
“It's a result of a general eco-
nomic pressure from all aides"
he said
“Even a simple play now costa
rr ooo to 2100000 to produce The
same play 20 years ago would
have cost 223000 at the most
“There are 73 to SO plays
brought into New York each year
—and w are lucky If 25 to
stay awhile— but only four or five
of these are real hits Too often
a play is either an instant hit or
an Instant flop
"There wasn’t ao much money
lost in the old d ays Even a flop
might Last a season Everybody
went to the theater then There
weren't ao many other dis-
tractions" Bellamy is convinced that pay
television is on the way and that
it WUl give the theater the big-
gest revival It has ever seen
“Tit best of Broadway— every-
thing— will be made available al-
meat Instantly to MO million peo-
ple” he said
