Eisenhower Letter Seen Blocking Federal School Aid
Washington leaders note a June statement by Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, then president of Columbia University, opposing federal aid to education for all states and urging aid only to those unable to fund high-quality schooling. He warned against federal control and centralization, signaling possible political testing ahead of 1952. He aligned with Taft and Wherry on limited federal involvement, while ADA leaders debated inviting him into the Democratic fold.

Catholic Church urged to cooperate with Prague regime
President Gottwald signaled willingness to seek positive co operation with the Roman Catholic Church in Czechoslovakia in a bid to ease church state tensions. He referred to the secular aims of a new group Idlo Catholica representing priests and laymen and to concessions the state might offer to justify church negotiations. Premier Zatopek promised the state would make concessions while expecting the church to negotiate, a move seen as part of a broader step by step reduction of church influence.

City Light Expands To Recover 1948 Power Loss
City light officials say 20 percent drop in power sales in 1948 will be made up by year end from new sources. Superintendent R R Daniels warns the distribution system needs a broader program including two new substations and a high voltage ring around the city to ensure even current. Immediate relief of strained circuits will cost about 10000 dollars before the 400000 expansion project ends next year. A new boiler unit arrives and will replace older equipment later.
