Prayer
Stresses
Secularistic Trend
Washington (NC)Unless a constitutional amendment
is passed to allow voluntary prayer in schools, the Supreme
Court's "prayer" decisions "must operate to destroy every
surviving instance of public reverence in the land,'" a priest-
spokesman for thousands of
Americans told the Senate
sub-emnmittee on constitutional
amendments here.
Father Robert G. llowes, as-
sociate professor of engineer-
ing at the Catholic University
of America, made that com-
mcnt in testifying on behalf of
Citizens for Public Prayer,
Bishop Bernard J. Flanagan of
Worcester, the Worcester
(Mass.) Diocesan Council of
Catholic Women, and Worces-
te," Mayor George Wells.
But the amendment "is not
for school prayer alone," he
said, "but rather to arrest once
and for all at the prayer point
a tn'ocess of secularism which,
unless radically checked, must
erode away all public rever-
ellce."
Citing national ,polls, resolu-
tions by school boards and
boards of selectmen in Massa-
chusetts cities, congressmen's
polls of their districts, Father
Ilowes said "upwards of 80 per
cent of our fellow citizens"
favor the prayer amendment.
As one indication, he offered
"more than 100,000" signatures
on petitions gathered by Citi-
zens for Public Prayer.
He assailed the "culpable am-
biguity" of religious leaders
who oppose the amendment,
and called them "generals with-
out armies," who "do not have
even their own congregants
with them."
