Dear Sirs;I was disap[x>inled that none of the

pictures taken at St. Mary's College inKansas were used. My . , , brother is atpresent taking his theology there, andwe, his family, are inordinately proud ofthejesiiit Order, of St. Mary's and of him.

Dear Sii-s:Some years ago 1 was graduated from

a Detroit high school My buddy wasRoman Catholic and enrolled at theUniversity of Detroit, a Jesuit institu-tion. I decided to go there with him, al-though a Protestant, but was admittedon probation because of dismal high-school grades.

It didn't take long to discover that thiswas a no-nonsense establishment, wilJiscant frills and frosting. Learning seemedto be the main idea.

The "Jcbbics'" treated me as a manand respected my faith scrupulously; thesulky high-schooler quickly turned intoan all-A student and wound up with atuition scholarship for graduate study ata famous secular university (Harvard).

I'll never forget my debt to those won-deiful, dedicated men,

STUART G A I . B R A ITHLos Angeles, Call/.

Dear Sirs IDidn't see any un-Christian remarks

from Catholics concerning the article onihe Methodist country parson (HE WORKSIN GOD'S BACK PASTURES, by Harold H.Martin, Dec. ls]. Hope the Jesuit ar-ticle is also fiee from un-Cliristianattacks.

PALIL LYONSBronx, .,V. Y.

Dear Sirs;It is small woiidrr Jesiiils have been

feared, suspected and, evidently notwithout cause, maligned. [Theirl basicprinciples—ihc end jusiifies the means.

and the absolute destruction of one's ownthinking and judgment—are not onlyun-Jesunlikc bui decidedly un-American.

ELLA F. TERRYBlue Point, N.Y.

Dear Sir^;I enjoyed reading The Pope'a Com-

mandos—almost all of it, anyway. I wiahthat Mr. Hauser had gone a step furtherin the interests of accuracy and pointedout that the famous sentence fromBusenbaum, "When the end is lawftil,the means are also lawful," refers to theuse of means that are morally indifferentand not to the use of immoral means.There is a mighty difference and It scenisa pity ihat Mr. Hauser failed to say so.

Dear Sirs:We wish to congratulate Mr. Ernest

O, Hauscr on his excellent article on theJesuiU. . , . The Jesuits of Holy RosaryMission, Pine Ridge, S.D,, have workedamong our Dakota (Oglala Sioux) peo-ple since 188H, teaching four generationsof our pupils to be good Christians andgood Americans.

Holy Rosar>' with more than 500Sioux boarders in attendance is now thelargest mission boarding school in ourcountry. In the opinion of our people,this Jesuit school has been the most im-portant single factor in our transforma-tion from a stone-age culture to moderncivilization.

Pine Ridge, S.D.

Dear Sirs;Do you suppose the head of the Jesuits

[below] ever heard that God is love, as

The Very Rev. John Baptist Janssms.

Jesus taught? He looks so very unhappy.

Dear Sirs:It might reassure you to know that

Father Janssens impresses me as muchless austere than othei-s find him. . . .

[He] has a terrifie sense of humor. Onejoke I told him made him laugh so hardthai he couldn't speak for some time,iliough he kept tr>'ing. Altogether a ver*simple, friendly, human individual.

Source of Hope

Dear Sirs:In the August 4-, 1956, issue of your

magazine you ran an article, I CAMEBACK FROM MADNESS, by Ann Bentley.During my husband's rcceni commit-ment lo a mental hospital that articlewas prescribed reading for many of thepatients there and iheir immediate fam-ilies, among whom were my hu,sbandand I. . . .

The reading of that very personalsior,' generated new hope and couragefor those of us who were bogged down byour battle with mental illness,

Hapgood's CrustDear Sirs:

The Post is to be most highly congrat-ulated for the splendid articles in its Ad-ventures of the Mind scries. Particularlygratifying is the inclusion of an article ongeology [THE EARTH'S SHIFTING CRUST,by Charles H. Hapgood, Jan. in], ascience that is grossly neglected in popularattention. . . .

[However, Hapgood's] theory is nomore than speculation. When it is testedby abundant evidence known to almostevery experienced geologist, but neglectedby Mr. Hapgood, its inadequacy is evi-dent. The approving remarks of a greatscientist like Einstein, whose field of com-petency was not geology', do nothing toimprove this situation.

Deal" Sirs:I am a professional geologist. . . .

Hapgood's authority is cited as a chem-

ist and engineer. As a former chemist andlicensed engineer, 1 can assure you thereis nothing in that training that wouldqualify anyone to write on subjects gc-

• Though Professor Hapgood is nota praclicing geologist, the editors jeltthat his years oJ teaching the historynj science and anthropology and hisdfcnde nf research on rriiftal shijtsqualified htm to theorize on what haskeen a controversial hypothesis of longstanding. The Hapgood-Campbellexplanation oj rrustal shifts is, ofcourse, pure speculation and was pre-sented as !uth. —ED.

Dear Sirs:I read . . , The Earth's Shifting

Crust with my eyes popping out of myhead. . . . I am pursuing my winter hobbyof reading seed catalogs and if there is achance that my garden plot might slide

lo California, I'll withhold my order un-til things calm down. R. LEVEXIER

Dtar Sirs:Intriguing and thought-provoking, . . .Why don't more scientists follow up

their researches affecting our own " terra-not-so-firma," and share their knowledgewith us common human beings?

C. J. TASSINEdgard, La.

Dear Sirs:How does Professor Hapgood correlate

the "summer flowers and grasses havebeen found almost perfectly preserved intheir [mammoths'] mouths and stom-achs," on page 66", with " [the crust] move-ment, once it starts, will require manythousands of years for its completion" Onpage 69?"

It seems to me that the mammothscould have used this time to more prof-itable ends.

KENNETH STEELE

• Professor Hapgood postulated asudden and catastrophic shower ofvolcanic dust set off by radical cruslalshifts. It was the uokantsm and notthe shifts that annihilated the mam-motlis. —ED.
