-3- _ Eorrorneo, soon to open, is on evidence oi Ms-r educationol opportunity is being expanded to give solid instruction to all the chilcien. The Catholic people gladly make this contribution to the community and to our beloved oountry. Better education is necessary, and we are ever seeking to irnprove the minds and hearts of all our chilien, and Cotholic people make tremendous sacrifices to build our schools and to maintain them. This we could not possibly do if it were not for the heroically generous oontribution of their very lives by the Sisters and Brothers who teach in our Catholic schools. And when this new St. Charles Parochial School opens its doors, 92 it is my intention that it bear the honored name of Monsignor Cornelius Drew. The American Catholic Bishops declared in I958 that "the heart of the race question is moral and religious. It concerns the rights of man and our attitude toward our fellowman." Only last week when President Kennedy visited our new Holy Father, Pope Paul Vi, His Holiness said, "We are ever mindful in our prayers of your efforts to insure all your citizens the equal benefits of citizenship which have as their foundation the equality of all men because of their dignity as persons and children of God." I had the opportunity in l949 of sending my congratulations and good wishes to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People
