Catholic Campaign
Against Pagan Nazis
And Japanese Asked
Cyrus Eoton, Cleveland
Banker, Coils on
Church to Speak
By the Associated Press.


Cyrus Eaton, Cleveland banker
and industrialist, yesterday urged
the Roman Catholic Church TO call
on 'its members everywhere to op-
pose the pagan Germany and Japa-
nese forces that seek to enslave the
world"
This, he said, would be the great
est of the many great services the
church has rendered to humanity
because "once the church has spoken
Italy can no longer range herself
on the side of these ruthless ag-
gressors nor Ireland continue to re-
main aloof from the struggle"
Letter to Archbishop.
Mr.. Eaton announced that he had
set forth these views in a letter to
Archbishop Amleto Giovanni Ci-
cognani. apostolic delegate to the
United States.
The text of Mr.. Eaton's letter fol-
lows:
Your excellency:
The Catholic Church can render
the greatest of the many great serv-
ices to humanity of its long and
venerable history by calling upon
its members everywhere to oppose
the pagan German and Japanese
forces that seek to enslave the world
Once the church has spoken, Italy
can no longer range herself on the
side of these ruthless aggressors,
nor Ireland continue to remain aloof
from the struggle.
The plan of the Axis powers to
place one-half of the world under
the dominion of Hitler's pagan
Nordic god and the other half under
the rule of Japan's sun goddess. the
pagan Amaterasu-O -Omikami, is ut
terly repugnant to those who cherish
the ideal of the Good Samaritan.

Metropolitan Area, more than $4,000 in
the District alone. Those are in the

AS the months have passed, however,
it has become increasingly apparent that
the civilian defense organization hastily
thrown together last December needed
some house cleaning, that a score of
major problems were yet to be solved.
Among the Oldest of these problems is
street lighting. Under the present ar

Of effecting centrally controlled system

officials recently witnessed the demon
stration of such a system and are now
awaiting report from their engineers.
Inventors Of the apparatus assured their
audience that a minimum of critical
materials would be required. Failure to
obtain priorities months ago stynied pre-
vious efforts to speed up blackouts.
Some officials feel that If this or
another mechanical method fails to win
War Production Board approval, the
present arrangement should be revised.
In New York, wardens throw the
switches at $4,000 locations. Those who
point that out are in favor of the war

the wardens are already getting 500

That's Mr.. Jones, the average citizen.
the man who will have v-Home sticker
In his window before long, the man who
wants to know the other half of the
story-what the city is doing for him and
his family.
From Col. Lemuel Bolles, who took
over the job of executive director of civil
ian defense for this Metropolitan Area
exactly year ago, comes the answer
While we've come a considerable dis
lance, we still have long way to CO."
Actually, the Japanese attack on Pearl
Harhor was the go-ahead signal for
civilian defense here. Late December
saw the first tangible steps taken toward
functioning civilian defense organiza-
tion and cooperating public.
Signpost of progress has been the
series of blackout drills and practice
air-raid alarms. These drills have
pointed up the weak spots in civilian
protection. have been a measuring rod
of what has been done, what is yet to
be done.
Early drills, for instance, showed the
weakness of the warning devices pushed
the Commissioners into ordering enough
steam and air horns and electric sirens
20 that all people could be warned.
1t took practice tests to demonstrate
that single control center to which
all reports of incidents came could not
handle the job. The controversy over
decentralizing the control system got
. public airing, but decentralization was
accomplished and seven subcontrol CEN
ters are now in operation, with the
personnel going through intensive train
Ing exercises.
Blackouts when lights from Federal
buildings reflected In the darkened win
dows Of law-abiding neighbors resulted
finally in Government cooperation with
blackout provisions
Steadily growing since December, the
volunteer forces have reached a strength

with by the Afraid Shelter Survey
Committee, headed by Col Beverly
Snow, Assistant Engineer Commissioner.
Col. Snow promptly made it clear his
committee had concentrated on finding
the safest place for shelter in the city's
schools and in l,lo0 hotels and apart
ment and Office buildings He told the
Commissioners that the school survey as
well as 500 Of the 1,100 studies had been
completed, but nothing had been done
to find places that could provide tenn
porary shelter in each neighborhood, to
arrange that they could be opened any
hour OF the "a or to designate them by
signs for the wsyfarer caught on the
street in an air raid.
Problem of Shelters
Col. Snow had also completed plans for
shelter construction but these are to be
laid away until the time comes when
such structures would be considered nee
essary. In the meantime, the Commits
sioners agree and have promised to do
something about finding places in every
locality that might not be structurally
the safest but would provide protection
against showers of anti-aircraft shell as
we'll as flying splinters.
There are other questions Mr.. Jones
might ask. When he goes to an outdoor
gathering, and the AFRAID warning
sounds, should he hasten to his car, stay
where he Is or go under the stands? Do
the Districts new blackout regulations
take care of all contingencies as adver-
tised? Why are so many cars lighting
up the streets during blackouts? Why
are there so few prosecutions when the
Commissioners have promised to punish
all violators of the regulations? How
we'll trained are the volunteers pledged
to protect their neighbors? And how
we'll equipped are they?
outdoor gatherings also come under the
heading of unfinished business At the
Water Gate concerts. the audience was
instructed by local OCD to disperse when
the public warning was sounded. Ac-
tually, in the last blackout, an opera per-
formance was halted in full flight and
the people were told to leave long before
the public warning sounded although at
that point, the imminence of the sur
prise drill was still supposed to be con-
fidential On the same night, baseball
fans at Griffith Stadium stayed in their
seats, in accordance with the policy laid
down by national OCD.
The officials who are concerned about
this difference of opinion believe study
should be made of each structure and It's
surroundings to determine whether In
each case dispersal or staying put would
be preferable. At the Water Gate, for
