that comforting NEW STAMP MARKS RELIGIOUS FREEDOM Three-Cent Issue Recalls Flushing Struggle For Rights NEW YORK, Dec. 27, AP A new three-cent eligious freedom stamp went on sale today in Flushing, Queens.

The issue of 100 million stamps commemorates the Flushing Re monstrance of 1657 a demand for religious freedom for all. Three hundred years.

In 1662, John Bowne was arrested for allowing Quakers to meet in his Flushing home, but won acquittal.

27, AP The United States has put more than 17 billion dollars into research, development and production of missiles of various types since it began exploring the feasibility of those weapons in World War II days. All but about a half-billion dollars of the total has been programmed since the beginning of the Korean War in 1950 set off the rearmament program. Congressional committees are investigating or preparing to invest! gate the whole missile problem, in eluding the questions of the past, present and future adequacy of funds, and whether the Pentagon has been diligent in spending the money provided by congress. Figures made available at the Pentagon today showed that has been assigned to missile programs since fiscal year 1946 and prior. The figure includes, an estimated $4,638,000,000 for the current fiscal year, but does not take into account an extra bit lion dollars which Secretary of Defense McElroy has said he will ask from congress.

The total covers obligations to which 1 the military services committed themselves in the whole broad missile field. A defense department summary said it includes the cost of bringing guided missile weapon systems to an operational status, research and development, production facility expansion and tooling, procurement, contract and military overhead to support missile testing and certain construction costs for research and development. It does not include such items as the cost of running operational sites, like 'those for the Nike antiaircraft missile.

Service Men Jailed For Assaulting1 Cabbie YOKOHAMA. Japan, Dec. 27, AP Yokohama District Court today sentenced a U. S. Navy enlisted airman and a marine private, both from Chicago, to 3 years onment each for assaulting a Japa- National nee taxi driver.

The court said they also took his cab. The service men were identified as Nick W. Maintanis, 22. and Private David G. Morrow, 20.

Urges AGENCY Churches Mark Progress So Do can'd a I Sheets (By the United Press) If churches drew up a year-end balance sheet on religion in America, they could report impressive growth in assets during 1957. Records were set in virtually every field of religious activity that is subject to statistical measurement.

But the statement of condition would also show formidable liabilities. There are still many areas of U. S. life in which church leaders find it difficult to detect any evidence of a genuine religious revival. On the credit side of the statements would be sucti facts as these: Church m'embership soared past the 100 million mark and continued to grow at a rate of three per cent a year nearly dcuble the rate of population increase.

Sunday School enrollment hit an all-time high of more then 40 million. Building Boom Spending on church construction climbed to 870 million dollars, an Increase of 95 million dollars over 1956. More than 3,000 new congregations came into being. Contributions to religious bodies totaled about $3,500,000,000, an increase of nearly seven per cent over last year. The number of missionaries in foreign service rose to 22,680 twice as many as U.

S. churches sent abroad twenty years ago. The Bible dwarfed all other best-sellers, with estimated sales of eight million copies. On the debit side, church leaders might record another array of statistics which are hard to square with the picture of a nation on its knees: Americans spent three times as much on alcoholic beverages as they gave to their churches. The number of alcoholics, like the number of church members, reached an all-time high of five million.

Narcotics addiction, the national divorce rate, the highway death toll and juvenile delinquency arrests rose to record levels along with Surday School enrollment. Facts Are Baffling p*rnographic literature flooded the country. A scandal sheet racked up the largest newsstand sales of any magazine. At first glance, the balance sheet may seem completely baffling. On one side is clear evidence of a strong and growing public interest in religion.

On the other, the symptoms of a sick and immoral society. Many clergymen believe this paradox simply demonstrates that Americans are responding in two radically different ways to the experience of living in an era when the shadow of the H-bomb and the intercontinental missile hangs over every tomorrow. Some people are turning to religion to find a meaning for life which transcends the anxieties of an uncertain earthly existence. Others ars seeking escape from the same anxieties in the age-old philosophy of eat, drink and be merry. DALLAS WINS SCHOOL 1 DESEGREGATION DELAY Appeals Court Voids Mid-Term Integration Order of Texas Judge NEW ORLEANS.

Dec. 27. AP The Fifth U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals today reversed a lower court ruling which had ordered Dallas, to integrate its sch at mid-term.

The appellate court said Dallas school authorities should have mpre time to proceed with desegregation. Previously, the appeals court here had ruled Dallas schools must integrate with all deliberate speed. Federal District Judge William Atwell, then set the time at which comes in February. 4 The Appeals Court, in an opinion by Judge Richard Rives, said: We thought, and still think, that this court's mandate made it clear that before a more specific date should be fixed and before any orders or judgments should be entered to require compliance with the judgment directed in that mandate, the school authorities' should be accorded a reasonable further opportunty promptly to meet their primary responsibility in the premises ESTATE BATTLE ENDS Policeman, 2 Bellhops to Split PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 27, AP A traffic policeman and two bellhops have agreed to settle for $200,000 in a legal battle for the $1,200,000 estate of Mrs.

Anna M. Haerer. The remainder of the estate will be divided among fooir charities. The out-of-court agreement provides for the trio to split their $200,000 portion. A contest with the charities began when two wills were filed for probate after Mr.

Haerer died July 29, 1955. One wilj, signed in 1946. left her estate to William T- Miller, 63, a traffic policeman outside the hotel for nearly 30 years; Anthony DElia, 51. Bellevue-Stratford bellboy' captain for 30 years and William B. Dexter, 68, a retired A will signed in 1944 had bequeathed her estate to the Womens Auxiliary of St.

Edmonds Home for Crippled Children, the Womens Auxiliary of Misericordia Hospital and Misericordia Hospital, separately, and St. Josephs House for Homeless Industrious Boys. The charities contended the second will was written after the three men exerted undue influence on Mrs. Haerer, who lived in the hotel. 5 AtTO FINANCE.

Yearly Outlay Noted From the time th services began analyzing captured German missiles late in World War II and studying development of their own weapons through June 30, 1946, the total missile program amounted to about 70 million dollars. During the 1947 fiscal year ending June 30, 1947, the outlay was 58 million dollars, then started climbing to 81 millions in 1948, and to 98 millions in 1949.

It reached 134 millions in fiscal 19o0 which ended about the time the Communists attacked in Korea. Although there is little evidence that the U. S. was aware at that time of Russias intensifying interest in missiles, the inception of the Korean War revealed Soviet techno, logical capability in new jet aircraft, and along with other military spending increases, the allocation for work on U. S.

missiles jump ed to 784 millions in fiscal 1951. The figures rose to $1,058,000,000 in 1952, and to $1,166,000,000 in 1953. It dropped back a bit to in fiscal 1954, the first full fiscal year of the Eisenhower administration. But the program outlay moved up again to $1,470,000,000 in the year ended June 30, 1955; climbed to $2,270,000,000 the next year; to $4,284,000,000 in fiscal 1957, and to the $4,638,000,000 estimated for the current year.

Dec. 27. AP The rest of his life in prison, instead of death in the states gas chamber, has been decreed for L.

Ewing Scott. The penalty verdict was returned by the same jury which convicted him last Saturday of murdering his wealthy wife, Evelyn, 63. She disappeared from their fashionable Bel-Air home two years and seven months ago and has not been seen since. The 61-year-old former stockbroker took the sentence as calmly as he had his conviction of first-degree murder. Mr.

1 Scott is pleased, obviously, his chief defense counsel, P. Basil Lambros, said later. He said nothing except, I want to see you tomorrow morning so that we can go to work on the motion for a new trial. Formal Sentencing Set The motion was made by Lambros when Superior Judge Clement D. Nye set Jan.

14 for the formality of pronouncing sentence. The motion can be argued then or within 10 days thereafter. Jurors toldi newsmen that in more than three days deliberations preceding the guilty verdict last Saturday there was; no sentiment for acquittal. We tried to find a way of acquitting him," Mrs. Clarese Stern said.

We just couldnt. Unnatural Reaction Asked if any one thing convinced the jury that Scott was guilty, foreman Otis M. Embree said: There were an awful lot of things. There was not any one thing that was a determining factor. avid A.

Downer said: It was Scotts unnatural reaction to circ*mstances that convinced me. Scott was convicted solely on circ*mstantial evidence since no trace of his wife has been found. He fied to Canada nearly a year after her disappearance and was arrested last April at the Canadian border near Detroit. Deputy District Attorney J. Miller Leavy branded Scott a cold, cruel, heartless man.

Describing Mrs. Scotts liquidation of her $600,000 estate under Scotts direction and the wasting away of the assets after her disappearance, in May, 1955, he told the jury: This was a carefully laid plan to do away with Evelyn Scott for one purpose only greed and avarice.
