Asher said, "I hope the students and faculty members make this year's campaign a success because it is for a worthy cause and is the only community drive on campus." NSA called atheistic by dean of students By GWEN SAN MARCO "The National Student Association is a dangerous organization composed of atheists, agnostics, and some who would not even salute the flag. NSA will not be on the Loyola campus next year." The Rev. Robert L. Boggs, dean of students, made this statement to the Student Status committee at a private hearing recently. Purpose of the private hearing was to ask Father Boggs why he had vetoed a motion to discuss re-evaluation of Loyola's membership in NSA. Also, the committee, composed of chairman Ed Dufresne, and members John Chavanne and Carolyn Meyer, wanted to question the Student Council's moderator concerning the powers the Council had. Regarding the NSA referendum, Father Boggs stated the above remarks and added that Loyola students have been allowed to attend the NSA congress because their staunch moral training prepared them to combat this opposition. The Council moderator said that anything related to NSA is not a purely student matter. This involves state and country. He said that he would not concede evaluation of this organization until the regular time of the charter committee's review of organizations. Even at this time, the Council would first have to vote to accept or reject the USNSA. Then the Council would "refer" the issue to the students in a referendum.The committee pointed out that it is unwritten in the constitution that the evaluation of organizations take place towards the end of the year. It is traditional, according to the dean of students, and tradition rules when something is unstated in the constitution. He also stated that he didn't think the students are educated enough to vote on this issue at the present time.

Page 2 Philosophy club lecturer studies H-bomb morality The use of thermo-nuclear warfare would be justified if there were a proportionate good to be preserved and if its use would not affect human genocide. This view was expressed by the Rev. James Carter, S.J., professor of physics, at the initial lecture in a series sponsored by the Philosophy club, last night.  Speaking on "The Morality of Thermo-nuclear Warfare," Father Carter enumerated what he considered the only conditions under which the H-bomb would be justifiably dropped: 1) That a good which is absolutely necessary to mankind could be protected only by means of the bomb. This implies that every other alternative be first explored. 2) That the objective in dropping the weapon be to cripple or destroy a military target. The objective cannot be to kill civilians, although such casualties are permissible if they are not the goal of the mission and the good achieved by dropping the bomb is in proper proportion to the number of innocent victims destroyed. 3) That the extent to which the bomb* are used be a* limited as possible and at no time likely to get out of hand to such a degree as to cause the massacre of the human race. Father Carter also said that much controversy exists among today's Catholic theologians regarding the morality of nuclear warfare. Opinions range from the viewpoint held by the Rev. G. Gundlach, S.J., a moral theologian of Germany, that we have been given a divine mandate to defend the divinely established order even if this results in the destruction of the world, to the pacifist idea that no dispute can justify nuclear war. Last night's lecturer explained that because man will soon hold in his hands the power to destroy the human race, if indeed he does not can no longer be ignored. It is a bridge which must be crossed now. A factor which should be of some concern to theologians pondering the solution was included by Pope Pius XII in his Christmas message of 1956, written just after the attempted Hungarian rebellion. He says, in effect, that there are values of such great weight for human existence that protection against unjust attack is not only morally right but sometimes obligatory." The fact that the message was delivered after the development of the atom bomb has a direct and important bearing on the interpretation of the context, he said. Father threw a scrap of comfortcomfort to American Catholics, however, with regard to this proposed mass liquidation. It lies in the fact that our government appears to be aligning its policy parallel to that held by the majority of Catholic theologians. Although the Church has not yet spoken clearly and dogmatically on the subject, Father Carter concludes that the mode of action being presently pursued by the leaders of our country will go hand in hand with the recommendation of the Church. FATHER CARTER Lectures set on communism The Rev. Louis J. Twomey, S.J., director of the university's Institute of Industrial Relations, will be principal speaker Thursday at the third of the Institute's series of double lectures on communism. The Institute sponsors a pair of lectures each Thursday in Room 41 of Marquette hall, the first on communism and the second on exposition of "Mater et Magistia," a social encyclical by Pope Pius XXIII, which includes a positive answer to communism. Next Thursday, Father Twomey will speak on "The Philosophy of Communism" at the first lecture from 7-8 p.m. The topic of his second talk, from 8:15 to 9:15, was not available at press time. Father Twomey said that over 100 persons are enrolled in the lecture series. The program is offered in collaboration with the adult education program of the New Orleans archdiocese. Bernard J. Offerman, assistant director of the Institute of Industrial Relations, is co-ordinator of the series which is open to the public. (See NSA, page 6)
