Protestant Spokesman Attacks Spellman on School Aid Plan
Rev. Dr. Oswald Hoffmann of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod publicly rejected Cardinal Spellman’s charge that federal aid to public schools discriminates against religious groups. Hoffmann urged aid for public schools only, warning that mixing church and state could threaten freedoms. Enrollment figures show Lutherans run about 300,000 students in 1,293 schools. Catholics operate 9,897 schools with 4,195,781 pupils.
