Want Bans Outlawed WASHINGTON (AP)--A car- dinal and 15 other prominent Roman Catholic clergymen have joined a Protestant couple in asking the U.S. Supreme Court to outlaw state bans on racial intermarriage. Marriage is a fundamental act of Protestantism, Orthodox Christianity and Judaism and may not legally he restricted by the state without a showing that it endangers society, the clerics told the court Thursday. The clergymen, includ- Lawrence Cardinal Shehan of Baltimore and three other archbishops, all are from states with laws prohibiting inter-ra- cial marriage. "The preservation of a ra- cially-segregated society is not an interest which the state may lawfully protect," they main- tained, They allied themselves with Richard P, Loving, white con- struction worker, and his part- Negro, part-Indian wife, Mil- dred, in the couple's attack on Virginia's anti - miscegenation law--and, by implication, sim- ilar laws in 17 other states. The clergymen pressed two main arguments: That laws prohibiting racially mixed mar- riages also prohibit the free ex- ercise of religion guaranteed by the U.S. constitution and that such laws_ unconstitutionally deny the right to have children. U.S. Student Quits Overseas Activities WASHINGTON (CP - AP)-- The oldest and largest student organization in the United States is considering giving up its overseas activities. because it believes its representatives always will be looked on as U.S. government spies. The group is the National Stu-| dent Association with a mem-| bership in 300 U.S. colleges and universities totalling some | 1,500,000. | While the emergency meeting} on the association's future went into the third day today, its] leaders appeared convinced that} abandonment of the associa-| tion's international branch will be the cost of its link with the Organization Central Intelligence Agency, the top U.S. spy outfit. It has been disclosed that the CIA subsidized the association with perhaps as much as $3,000,000 between 1952 and 1965. Jim Johnson, last year's vice- president for national affairs, said Thursday that no CIA money has gone into the stu- dent organization's domestic ac- tivities, including its extensive civil rights program in the southern states. Johnson said he was unaware the cost of the association's par- ticipation in foreign student ac- tivities.
