Mathias Wins Renomination On Prayer Amendment Stand
In Maryland District 6 Republican voters renominated Rep. Charles Mathias Jr. by 3 to 1. He opposed constitutional amendments overturning Supreme Court rulings on compulsory school prayer. Opponent Brent Bozell backed an amendment and hoped to “return the Bible to our schools.” The race reflects national debate and courtroom rulings on religious exercises in schools. Mathias led 29,585 to 10,943, amid broad petition pressure from supporters and strong fundamentalist ties in his district. Judiciary Hearings and statements from Rep. Emanuel Celler suggest sober judgment is emerging in Congress.
