WITH THE FIFTH ARMY IN
ITALY. Sept. % CUP)-American
DoughboyS in action on the italian
battlefront are more religious than
the folks back home. 1t. Col
Patrick j. Ryan, senior chaplain of
the Fifth army, said in front line
interview today.
Father Ryan, graduate of st.
Paul's Catholic Seminary in st.
Paul, Mimi, and an army chaplain
for the past Is years, attached
great Importance to the religious
side of soldiers life. He said
combat troops agree with him.
FACE DEATH
Il think perhaps these men,
brought face to face with death day
after day, appreciate more than
they did as civilians or than other
civilians do the Importance of re-
ligion to their every day life.
Il am frequently called to hold
mass throughout the day by groups
of men who are about tc go into
battle"
Father Ryan said Archbishop
Francis j. Spellman of New York,
during his recent audience with
Pope Plus XII. had arranged to
have special permission granted for
Catholic chaplains to say mass at
any time of the day, in line with
wartime conditions.
The chaplains, who wear military
uniform except when conducting
services, carry with them portable
"tent churches" under which their
affairs can be covered, but the SOL
diers who attend their services sit
or kneel in the open fields around
them
CHAPLAIN WOUNDED
Under existing conditions, they
move right into the battle line with
the combat troops, and Father
Ryan told me that only a few
days ago one chaplain was wound
ed seriously by rifle fire at the
front.
Gen. Clark Lt. Gen. Mark Clark,
commander of the Fifth army has
arranged for two chaplains to ac-
company each cobmat unit into the

Noxon in a deep voice answered:
Not guilty"
