ON THE DOMESTIC front this week several Interesting developments de-velopments took the play away for a time from the international legislation legis-lation such as ECA appropriations and the foreign arms program. These developments included the revelation that Sen. Styles Bridges, R., N. H.) was drawing a salary of $35,000 from a private special interest, the pension fund of the United Mine Workers, that religious re-ligious prejudice is blocking passage pas-sage of at least two important Democratic campaign pledges and 4ht ha o-called "five percent Investigation" is being fanned into what anti-administrauon xurces hope may be a full-scale scandal. Observers here recall the dramatic last-minute deal whereby Congressman Joe Martin, el Massachusetts, former house speaker, aad Bridies were able e eaU off the eeal strike, and at the same time Bridges and John L. Lewis became the majority team la directing the $100 million mil-lion pension fund of the miner.

Tt ia mssibla that other senators obtain money outside their salaries from their private business, but this is from a private enterprise which Senator Bridges is called upon to east his vote for legislation.

Despite She fact that President Presi-dent Truman has made a peelal appeal te the eoncresa for bill to provide federal aid for edneation, the tarmoil raised as a result of the bill Introduced ha the boose by Concreaama fir ah am A. Barden, of North Carolina, which the Catholic hierarchy declares Is anti-Catholic, likely will result In no action on federal fed-eral aid at this session of the congress. The exchange of let-tern let-tern aad statements between Mr. Franklin D. Roosevelt and Francis Cardinal Spellman of the Catholic chnrch at least has had the effect of clarifying the atmosphere on this moot question In that the cardinal Insists that only "auxiliary services" such as transportation, transporta-tion, free text books and health services are In question, and not general aid for maintenance mainte-nance or operation of parochial or private schools. Mrs. Roosevelt said this was a "fair" clarification of the issues. What the Barden bill did was to orohibit use of federal funds for these auxiliary services although the supreme court has ruled that such services or expenditures of public money for parochial schools are not a violation of the constitutional consti-tutional prohibition. The issue of states' rights also is paramount in the consideration of the federal aid to education bill. and the senate bill (or Thomas bill) recognizes these rights by permitting the states to use the federal money as they , see fit, whether for or against these aux iliary services for parochial or private schools. For the benefit of the general gen-eral publio there are five states which permit the expenditure ex-penditure of public funds for free non-r elisions text books In parochial schools.
