formation Pro Dec Of New York. a
Catholic agency which has been
keeping In close touch with religious
developments in Latin America. the
sympathy and understanding shown
by the bishops of North America
promises to bring about profound
changes in the attitude of many
Latin Americans toward the United
States by helping to break down
the deeply rooted resentment
against "Yanquis." ""For the very
first time says this Catholic group
in a recent bulletin, there is gen.
ulne hope that certain false concep-
tions will be permanently destroyed"
One other trend is proving of
prime importance-the increasing
attacks by Latin American bishops
against totalitarianism.
Quislins Drops Church Fight.
The report this week that Quis-
ling is dropping his fight against
the Norwegian church on orders
of Adolf Hitler Is believed to be
chiefly the result of German mill
tary pressure on Hitler, apparently
due to the danger of invasion of
Norway. Sc.
Norwegian circles in London be-
lieve, however. that the new policy
may have some connection with the
forthcoming observance on Septem-
ber Of the second anniversary of
Quisling's assumption of power.
Quisling and his Minister of the
Interior Hagelin are believed to
have visited Hitler in connection
with preparations for this ami
versary. The assumption is that
Hitler does not want the second
anniversary celebration marred by
the church fight. A third reason
for the relaxation, it is conjectured,
is the strength of the Norwegian
resistance itself If this is the case
the development represents at least
a temporary victory for the church.
1t is too early to tell whether
the Norwegian action represents a
general Nazi policy to be applied
to countries In danger Of invasion.
The only development in support
of this idea is that the Nazi press
campaign in Belgium against priests
who refuse to celebrate requiem
masses for Nazis killed on the
eastern front has relaxed somewhat
of late. ;.
But here it should be pointed
out that when Belgian Nazis had
an acute dose of invasion jitters
a few months ago the campaign
against the Catholic clergy was
stepped up. A London Catholic
newspaper reported that the Nazi-
controlled press was screaming
with indignation and accusation"
with the radio and military ad-
ministration following suit. The
Catholic paper expressed fear that
the time for the Nazis to strike
directly at the church has arrived.

BERKELEY, Calf, Aug. 29.-

died yesterday of heart attack.
A native of Ontario, Canada, he
went with his brother, the late Rev.

organize the British Labor party.
Returning to America, he became
a United States citizen and ran for

without success.
Elected Mayor of Berkeley in
1912, he found his administrat ton
frequently in conflict with those of
neighboring cities because of di-
vergent political and social views.
Once, while Mayor, he refused an
invitation from the Associated
Charities of San Francisco to at
tend $3-a-plate dinner meeting.
Your invitation becomes prac-

gether with Catholic leaders from
Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia
Costa Rica, Cuba, Mexico and Vene-
zuela. One Of the most important
of the Latin representa-
tives was Bishop Miguel de Andrea,
director of the Catholic Workers
Center OF Buenos Aires and an out
spoken anti-Nazi. President Castil-
10 of Argentina, 1t was reported, had
conferred with Bishop Andrea prior
to the bishops trip to Washington
and had discussed in detail the posi-
ton of Argentina In international
affairs, especially In regard to con-
tinuing diplomatic relations with the
Axis. South American sources said
the Argentine President had auth
orized the prelate to convey his
point of view to Americans and to
minimize the effect of news which
cools relations between the two
countries"
Catholic Influence Great
For several years the Roman
Catholic Church Of the United
States has been intensifying its eff
forts to aid this country in the
crucial diplomatic battle to win
South America from the Axis.
The American Government has
recognized the important position
of the church in South America and
the role which the United States
church can play in furthering the
good-neighbor policy. A well-known
Catholic bishop said recently that
there are now more Catholics in
the diplomatic service OF the United
States in South America than ever
before in the history of this coun-
try. Last year, William F. Monta-
Won, director of the legal department
of the National Catholic Welfare
Conference, was appointed consult
ant to the Office of Nelson A. Rock
efeller with the task of co-ordinat-
ing various American Catholic ef-
forts toward good will with Latin
America. Undersecretary Of State
Sumner Welles frequently has con-
ferred with one of the foremost au-
thorities among the Catholic priest
hood of the United States, the Rev.
Joseph F. Thorning.
American Catholic leaders have
sponsored number Of projects de-
signed to further understanding be-
tween co-religionists of the two con-
tinents and between the peoples of
North and South America generally.
These have included establishing
contacts and relations with Cath
olics south of the Rio Grande, spon-
soring of seminars, offering scholar
ships to Latin Americans in United
States Catholic colleges and univer-
stiles. Last year the National Cath
olic Welfare Conference News Serv-
ice, the official Catholic news service
In this country, began sending re-
leases in Spanish to leading news
papers and organizations In every
country of Latin America.
