The Hires agency is one of two

Walter Remlinger. president of
the 12-county Area Pharmaceutical

“I'm sure all druggists of the

Distributor Hires said: “Our or

list that will “lose money” for

take 60 to 90 days to get some of
the books and magazines off the

Mr. Brunner asked for strong

Bus Rides For
Catholic Pupils
PROVIDENCE, R. I. (NC)
Transportation of parochial
school children living beyond a
certain distance from the school
is mandatory under existing laws,
a law firm has reported to the
School Committee of the nearby
city of Cranston.
The committee was to hold a
special meeting December 29 to
study the report, requested in con
nection with a petition by parents
ol St. Matthew's School children
that the city supnly transportation
to the school.
The opinion was given by the
Providence law firm of Edwards
and Angell which stated that “It is
our opinion that it is legal for
your committee to grant this re
quest and that inasmuch as you
now furnish transportation for cer
tain public school pupils you are
required by law to furnish similar
rights and privileges to the pupils
of St. Matthew's.”
The school committee had
sought the advice of the law firm
after a similar but briefer report
had been given by City Solicitor
Richard F. Canning.
Objectors to the petition who
appeared at a School Committee
meeting in November included the
Rev. Frank H. Snell, pastor of Phil
lips Memorial Baptist Church and
president of the Cranston Minis
ters Association.
The law firm's opinion was in
direct contrast to the ministers’
association position.
They said that numerous fam
ilies have exercised their privilege
to send their children to other pri
vate schools and have assumed the
financial responibility. including
transportation. “This has been the
traditional American approach to
the question of the public and the
private school.”
In the law firm's opinion, an
swers to specific questions by the
school board included:
1) Transportation must be fur
nished for parochial school pupils
even though a public school is
available within the one-mile lim
it of the pupil's home.
2) A bus route should be estab
lished to accommodate parochial
school children where none exists
at present.
3) Transportation should be pro
vided without respect to parish
lines.
4) Any reimbursement .made if
the municipal bus is not used
should be made to parents.
