Sends Message
Photo by Times staff Photographer

A brief one-page message, car
ried out of a Japanese concentra-
ton camp in Manchukuo by a
Catholic nun, today brought the
first direct assurance that the Rev.
John F. Coffey, Maryknoll Mission
priest from Detroit, was well and
safe.
The message was. forwarded to
Father Coffey's parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Patrick J. Coffey of 1866
Muirland, by the nun upon her
arrival in America aboard the
Swedish exchange ship Gripsholm.
1t had been dated May 80, and was
written by Father Coffey while
in the British-American
Club at Mukden in Manchukuo.
The neutral Swedish government
now is arranging a second ex-
change ship. which is hoped will
carry Father Coffey home as we'll
as all remaining American citizens.
1t is scheduled for late October.
To raise the guarantee of $500
for his passage on the three-month
trip, the Manchu Club, a city-wide
will sponsor a bridge
party at Gesu Hall on Wednesday,

 Another responsibility of the board will be to make certain that various parts of war weapons reach assembly plants in the proper order necessary for construction of guns, ships. planes and other implements of battle.

 Creation of the high command was not designed, officials said, to remove some sources of friction be- tween the WIPE and Army and Navy procurement officials over the allo- cation of vital materials. But it was said the close association of the navy, war and maritime officials with one of Nelson's right hand men should go far toward elimina- ting disagreement.
 In either event, Wilson, subject to Nelson's final approval, will have the last word. Nelson made that clear in announcing Wilson's ap- pointment last night.

 Adolf Hitler might conceivably want to make another bid for peace again soon, especially if things go well for him in Russia. It has been common gossip for some time that he would do it as soon as he had finally crushed" the Russians. He has many prominent Catholics in his government-although himself renegade-through whom he could ask the Vatican to serve as inter- mediary. The Vatican, itself obvi- ously interested in restoring peace as soon as practicable. has often been approached by warning nations in this role.
 It is highly unlikely. however. that MT. Roosevelt would let Tay- Tor cross the Hudson river to listen to the most blandishing peace pro- posalS that Adolf Hitler could think up and that may effectively be ruled out But there is great deal other wise that Taylor might learn about
 
 might bring an earlier peace by shortening the war and which could be quite ethicaly transmitted via the Vatican. The German Catholics are patriotic (more priests and novitiates had fallen ip the present war by last summer than fell alto- gether in World War D but some of their leaders like Cardinal Faul- haber of Munich and Bishop Count Won Galen of Muenster have been among the staunchest opponents of Nad radicalism since Niemoeller. And the greater Reich's fifty mill lion Catholics are strongly repre- sented in all branches of the armed forces, with uniforms literally dot ting all church congregations.
 The case for peace proposals url- der the present circumstances might be made more reasonably for Italy than for the Reich. Dissatisfaction with Mussolini's and the Fascist party's conduct of the war. and with the notorious infiltration of gestapo and Nad troops into Italy, is sone- times surprisingly marked. The rul- ing house of Savoy, moreover, must be counted upon as a strong poten- tial factor in the eventual collapse of Il Duce's regime Whatever might happen or be stimulated to hasten the weakening of Italy's Axis ties would be of tremendous importance to the United Nations.
 Perhaps Taylor's trip in the midst of the most violent phase of this World War to date originated in something remote from peace. It may be connected with the newly arisen tension between Catholics and the Vichy government over Jew ish prosecutions in France. But whatever lies behind it. the brief announcement of its sticks in the mind like something that may haye far-reaching significance.
