“Statement Fair
Ami Clarifying*’
To Mrs. R oosevelt
(Continued from Page One)
dinal had called “anti-Catholic”
for her opposition to federal aid to
.sectarian schools, said the Cerdin
al had telephoned her and “asked
me to go over a statement which
he would like to release.”
“I have read it,” she added,
“and think it a clarifying and fair
statement.”
The Cardinal said the Catholic
church does not expect, nor ask
public funds for school construc
tion, maintenance and teaching
services.
But he said parochial school
children should share with public
school children in funds for trans
portation, school lunches, health
programs and non-religious text
books.
Mrs. Roosevelt, declaring anew
that she has “no anti-Catholic
bias,” said:
"I am firm in my belief that
there shall be no pressure brought
to bear on any church against the
proper operation of the govern
ment and that there shall be rec
ognition of the fact that all citi
zens may express their views free
ly on questions of public interest.”
Mrs. Les Stevens, who has been
in Kotzebue for the past week
with her husband who is there on
business states that Kotzebue is
very busy with its week-end influx
of tourists which fills the two ho

U. S. MAY POSTPONE CIVIL
SUI-r AGAINST BRIDGES
SJ^ FRANCISCO, — The
gt^Snment is willing to postpone
its civil suit against longshore
leader Harry Bridges.
The suit, to cancel Bridges’ citi
zenship on civil grounds, was filed
simultaneously with his indict
ment May 25 by the federal grand
jury on charges of perjury and
conspiracy in connection with hts
naturalization in 1945.
Assistant U. S. attorney Robert
McMillan said yesterday if the
government were forced to answer
the 47 interrogatories asked by
longshore leader’s attorneys in
connection with the civil action it
would hamper and obstruct the
criminal case against Bridges.
He added that there would be
no need to proceed with the civil
suit if Bridges were convicted in
the criminal charge.
