The Germans made fairly heavy raid on London during the night, using more than 100 planes. of which at least nine were shot down.
 No Radical Change
 There was no radical change in the Russian Finnish situation, Mos- COW merely warning Finland that she had "all responsibility for the consequences" in rejecting the So- viet armistice terms.
 In the Pacific, American forces completed encirclement of the Eis- marck Archipelago by seizing two islands in the St. Matthias group, f1anking the battered base of Ka- vieng on New Ireland. American battleships poured 1000 tons of shells into Kavieng.
 It was estimated that 90 900 Japa- nese were cut off in the area. Emirau and Elmusao, the seized islands, are within 600 miles of Truk, the central Pacific base where American observers reported the Japanese are feverishly attempting to repair the damage caused by our aerial attacks.
 The German radio reported Mar shal Hideki Tojo, Japanese premier. had told parliament Japan's mili- tary position had become "very and the country was facing "deci- serious in the last six weeks sive struggles" which will decide it's destiny.

Recent Attack on Holy Father By Russian Press
 Answered in Editorial

Washington, D. C., March D. Special-Inferentially replying to the recent attack upon the Holy Father printed in the press of Rus sia, the March issue of The Amer lean Ecclesiastical Review, publish ed at the Catholic University of America, contains an editorial de- claring Pope Plus XII "has striven endlessly to bring peace to world tortured by the bestial futility of war"
 Written by the editor of the Re- view, the Rev. Dr. Joseph c. Fen ton, the editorial, headed "Gloriose Regnans", calls upon Catholics to pray that the Pope "be spared the sorrow of seeing the Eternal City laid waste" by the war-The text of the editorial follows:
 Five years ago this March, Car dinal Dominioni announced to the multitude in St. Peters Square, and to waiting world, the election of a new Pope. Eugenio Cardinal Pac- elli had been chosen the Successor of St. Peter and the two hundred and siXty-second Vicar of Jesus Christ on earth.
 "On that March day in 1889, God called Eugenio Pacelli to bear the Pontifical Tiara as his Master had once borne a crown of thornS. Pope Plus XII has looked out in sorrow from the Vatican across world of cruelty, devastation, suffering and death.
 We who are Catholics thank God for His goodness in giving us such a leader for the dark days through which We have passed. Plus XII has reigned gloriously. To nations rent asunder by hatred he has preached the love and the unity to be found in the Mystical Body of Christ. In the midst of cynical power politics and brutal oppression of the weak he has raised fearless voice in de- fence of justice and of human rights. He has striven endlessly to bring peace to world tortured by the bestial futility of war.
 His labors for God and Gods 4AatC' bAOuSAAO APOhA AAAAA the calumn and opprobrium of those who Haunt (and of some who en- deavor to hide) their enmity for Jesus Christ. But from those who love justice, he has earned admir- ation and love. And those who are privileged to be members of the Catholic Church have been proud to acknowledge him as their teacher and leader, father and guide.
 We should pray, on this his fifth anniversary, that Divine Providence may continue to give the Holy Faith CT strength to carry on his work. He has witnessed destruction worse than any wrought by the Vandals; God grant that he be spared the sorrow of seeing the Eternal City laid waste. We should pray also that his voice may be heard in the mak- ing of a new peace. The world can neither ignore nor dispense with the truth he is commissioned to ex- pound"

Probe Claim Thot Farmers Are Coerced
By D. w. DITTMER

Limited Press Staff COrreSpOnuent)
 Washington, March 9 - U.PO- One congressional investigation was ordered today and another was under consideration into charges that farmers have been forced to sign up for the agricultural adjust ment agency program under threat of being drafted or refused gaso- line and other rationed equipment
 Representatives Forest A. Harness R., Ind, and Ross Ridley, R., Okla, made the accusations and Chairman Andrew J. May, D., Ky, of the House Military Affairs Committee, said he would order an immediate investigation into use of the selec- tive service act to promote the AAA program.
 Chairman Howard w. Smith, D., Va, of the special house commit tee on government agencies, said he would confer with Office of Price Administration officials and would "go into it thoroughly" if it were found that rationed goods were be- ing used to force farmer cooperation in the AAA.
 Harness made public notice sent by Selective Service Board No. 2 of Grant County, Ind. to draft-age farmers, asking them to report to the county war board within five days after you have signed up at your township AAA meeting and obtained a certified copy of your 1944 production"
 Ut is very important that you obtain this certificate as directed since in its absence you may be placed in class IA and held for military service" the notice said.
 This can be construed only to mean that unless the registrant signs up with the Triple A, he will not be considered for deferment as an agricultural worker" Harness said.
 He also made public a letter of the Jay County, Ind, Agricultural Conservation Committee on the 1914 AAA program telling farmers ''in- formation required by the Selective Service Board in making farm de- ferments will be secured from this source"
 The letter added that through an agreement between AAA and OPA, "all non-highway gasoline for trac- tor and other farm non-highway use will be processed by AAA com mitteemen."
 There is no room to doubt that the administration. through its AAA committees. is deliberately and brazenly trying to use the ration ing restrictions as political wea- pon," Harness said.

ACCUSED ORDERED
 HELD FOR TESTS
Wood Street Man Found Guilty of Being 'Peeper';
 Protests Innocence

A 56-year-old man, father of eight children, was found guilty of being the "peeper" who has annoyed var ious families during the past few months following arraignment this morning before Judge T. E. Conway in City Court.
 Sentence was deferred for two weeks on the man, Pasqualc DiGiov- ami, 67 Wood street, Judge Conway said that he wished to give the mat ter more consideration and asked Defense Attorney Edward Mascolo if he would consent to a psychiatric examination of his client. Atty. Mas colo replied that he had little faith in such examinations but would not object.
 DiGiovanni was arrested Saturday afternoon by Detective Sergt. Joseph Mccarthy and Detective George Flavin following a complaint by a North Main street resident that she had seen a man of his description lettering in the hallway. The woman said that a hole about the size of a match stick had been cut in her doorway some tin1e ago.
 The detective said DiGovanni ad- mitted having drilled the holes in this and several other doorways. Asked why he did 1t, he replied, T guess maybe I get little crazy in the head sometimes"
 
 DiGovanni took the stand to deny having done any i,eeping or cutting of holes. He said he admitted it to the detectives because he was fright ened and they said they would leave him alone if he wo' d admit it.
 Atty. Mascolu showed the court large bladed knife the detectives had confiscated from the accused, and maintained that the holes de- scribed being the size of match sticks, could not have been drilled with that knife. He also called to the stand the accused family doctor as character witness.
 Prosecutor Frederick w. Palomba also called to the stand Chief De- tective Inspector Joseph R. Bender who told of having received com- plaints of holes in the door iron. residents of Bank street, Jewelry street, West Liberty street, and North Main stree apartments.
 A resident of one of the West Liberty street apartments told of having seen DiGiovanni lettering in the hall on three different occa- Sions.
 Judge Conway allowed Prosecu- tor Palomba, over objection by Atty. Mascolo, to show the accused a small drill.
 DiGiovanni denied that the drill had been taken from him by De- tective Lieutenant Cornelius Shan ahan two years ago, but admitted having had conversation with him at that time.
 In finding the man guilty, Judge Conway said that while there was some doubt that he was the sole of- fender, he was undoubtedly respon- sible for some of the peepholes. While ordinarily this would be a quite serious offense, Judge Conway said, he would have to take into account in this case the mans age, family status, and relatively clean police record.

Ever go to Saint Patrick's Roman Catholic Church of the Brooklyn district?
 We have; we were there last Sunday at the II o'clock service. We cannot recall ever being in the church before, but we are positive we shall visit there again before long.
 What a beautiful edifice!
 How inspiring it is for person in deep thought and somewhat devout and devoted to leading Q good and Christian life. We were delighted with our experience. We think of 1t day by day. The sun peeped through the handsome and attractive stained glass windows as the interior lights were switch ed on just before the service start- ed. It was like Heaven lighted up and prepared for receiving just and true soul, probably from our own city, and possibly one or two we knew in our lifetime. At any rate, that was the way we felt as we looked on, and noted the ap- proach of the young clergyman, who walked along the center aisle and blessed each and every mem- Der of his congregation with the holy water from the small font he carried in his hand. We bowed most meekly, following the trend of the others in the church, as all worshippers should do in the House of God. And how better we felt for 1t all: we thought some. too; we had in mind dear and thoughtful reader of The Out Easter, who, during the Christmas season forwarded us 8 Christmas card, bearing the portrait of Our Savior, with little message of cheer, and the wish in her good mind that some day she might read of our conversion, and 8 mind to know some prayers. We think we have proflted greatly by the sound advice of our unknown friend, because we have certainly tried to remove some of our strange ideas. and accept the teachings of the learned and men of letters. And if we fail in the end, surely it will not be the fault of our effort to try.
 We were so interested and pleased with out unique experi- ence of last Sunday, that we searched for history in connection with the St. Patrick parish, not a complete history. of course, but something to refresh our mind, and that of others who might be- come interested in the subject.
 Our investigation disclosed that St. Patrick's parish first bought the property on which the church stands in 1880; that the corner stone was laid in 1881, and while services were first held in the basement, it was on Jan. IS, 1903, that the dedication ceremonies in the upper part were conducted with the late Cardinal Gibbons as the distinguished guest of the occasion. There was noted speaker from Washington, the church was jammed with Catho-
