Methodist Church Opposes Government Aid to Denominational Schools
The Methnaint Minister rer Dr G Wheen told the meeting the Methodist Church of Australasia views with deep concern the calling of the conference. They resolutely oppose in principle government aid to denominational schools and say any departure from established state practice should wait for Federal Parliament debate.

Suspect Arrested In Kidnapping Case Involving Weinberger Baby
New York police arrested a man in a bar in connection with the kidnapping of month-old Peter Weinberger near Westbury. Authorities say the man is not yet identified as a suspect or crank. Mrs. Beatrice Weinberger made a fruitless rendezvous attempt for the child, while her husband Morris remained visibly shaken. Police revealed she paid $5,000 in cash for a possible meeting, then returned home without contact. Officials described a nationwide search and urged intermediaries among churchmen and radio announcers to aid in the safe return of Peter. Stamford authorities reported a naked man requesting vitamin compound Dovex vitamin B-12 at a chemist shop, prompting alerts to chemists statewide. Nassau County detectives said they have no solid leads.

Wharfies to Go to Court
In Melbourne the Arbitration Court will hear attempts to end the nation wide wharf deadlock in the coming days. ACTU president A B Monk said WWE general secretary J Healy intends to apply for an immediate hearing. Justice Ashburner warned against a conference between ship owners WWE and ACTU at this stage. He could arrange an early hearing if the Water side Workers Federation applies. The court will examine issues in implementing the new award and whether using load sizes and labor forces should be altered before a board of reference decides on shipowners applications. Healy ordered Melbourne WWF to cancel a proposed 24 hour stoppage and instead hold a mass rally at Port Melbourne after a four hole page.
