...before those of the rest of society. As examples of this he cites Jewish opposition to inclusion of a question about religion on the U.S. census and the lack of public Jewish support for the Catholic position in the Hildy McCoy adoption case (TIME, April 1 et seq.). "Too often . . . the question Is es gut far Iden? (How will it affect the Jews?) seems to determine official Jewish action on public issues...
...teach it its duty. It can do much as a family of God. It can do nothing as a church, since it has none of the corporate gifts of the Holy Spirit to the Church in its own right. To act as a family only seems so often impotent, to seek to do a churchly work may reveal only confusion and contradiction. So carefully must it walk...

Actually, only a minority gets them, since only five crops (wheat, corn, cotton, rice and tobacco) are supported, and they are produced by the nation's most prosperous farmers. Left out almost completely are some 2,500,000 marginal farmers. These underfed and ill-housed families are a farm problem that few Congressmen talk about. Last week Congress grudgingly voted $2,500,000 for their benefit, a cut of $1,500,000 below...
