America seeks no more than an active merchant
feet operating on basis of equality with foreign
shipping. carrying substantial portion Of our
goods and bringing us necessary raw materials.
An amazing record in prompt deliveries Of huge
war cargoes is now being set BY the American
steamship companies operating for the War Shipping
Administration. These organizations need only your
continuing support to play their vital postwar part.
Evening star., 1944-11-06

. We at U. S. Lines feel that this support, in the
form Of solidly secured government financial aid
now contained in the Merchant Marine Act of 1886.
sets free American shipping to compete in friendly
equality with the vessels Of other nations
We believe that the firm continuance of this act
Of Congress is necessary if our Merchant Marine
ITO play its part in obtaining Americas fair share
Of world commerce.
Evening star., 1944-11-06

. We must have jobs for 5s,o0o,000 workers and
returning veterans. the Department of Commerce
estimates, to avoid unemployment after the war.
And over 5000 of those jobs, economists state
will depend on Americas foreign trade-exports
Of our goods, and imports Of materials we need.
Evening star., 1944-11-06

First. by shipping on our own vessels. we build
up new industries for America assuring jobs not
only for thousands of American seamen, but for
many thousands Of maintenance workers, ship
builders, mechanics and artisans.
Second our export business needs the safeguard
Of American ships to assure equal treatment in
world trade routes, free Of the possible handicaps
involved in dependence solelyupon foreign shipping.

War In Italy Brings Cultural Tragedies
Wolf Tells of Irreparable Damage to Churches And Famed Monuments by Bombings of Naples

save for the loss of little glass. PAINTINGS REMOVED
 Most of its fragile pieces had been stored in deep subcellars, and the curators have assured Majcr Gard Ter that they are all undamaged. As for paintings, most of them were re- moved before the war to places of safety in the country.
 Which brings up one of the wars unique stories. Several of the Na- tional Museums finest paintings were sent to the famous Benedictine Monastery of Monte Casino. Monte Casino, said to have been founded by Saint Benedict himself in the fifth century, contains a world-fa- nous library of Benedictine manu- scripts.
 It seemed a safe place to store treasures. But Monte Casino is just outside Casino, German stronghold athwart the road to Rome, and the war soon may reach Casino in earn est. What then? The question is doubly interesting because of this hithertofore unpublihed fact.
 Because of Monte Casinos mag nificent library, the Pope recently asked both sides to avoid using the monastery for military purposes and therefore to consider it neutral iS- land to be safe from the war.
 What answers we or the Germans gave this request cannot be known, but 1t is known that few weeks ago the German radio announced that all important works of art had been removed from Monte Casino.

NEED 0 FCATHOLIC
 PRESS EMPHASIZED
Archbishop Murray of St. Paul, Minn., Heads N. C.
 w. C. Press Dept.

Catholic Press Month is observed during the month of February Starting on the Feast of St. Francis de Sales which was the date select ed after the publication of the en- cyclical of Plus I on the occasion of the tercentenary of the death of the saint which was January 29 1923.
 Most Rev. John Gregory Murray Archbishop of St. Paul, a native ot this city, who is Episcopal chairman of the Press Department of the N c. w. C., news service, recently wrote an article on the importance of a Catholic press which appeared in The Catholic News. diocesan pa- per of the New York Archdiocese In the article he quotes from the encyclical mentioned above, and comments on the fact that St. Fran cis used the device of distributing leaflets which antedated the en- cyclicalS of the Popes. ArchbiShop's article is an impressive statement of the need of Catholic press, as the voice of the Vicar of Christ, com menting on the technique of St. Francis, and its respect for the sec- ular press.
 He concludes by stating that the need of a Catholic press is greater now than 1t ever was. AS the pres- ent crisis grows worse, there will be need of still greater watchfulness and larger expense to keep the Cath olics and their fellow citizens in- formed of all the facts more promptly and more correctly than can be done by any other press serv- i've in any country of the world.
 There will be no hesitation on the part of the News Service to make any sacrifice in the cause of truth and mutual understanding among all the members of the hu- man family. This responsibility begins at home, but for the past two years 1t has been extended by service to the countries of South America and to other areas, and as the opportunity arises will be extended to every country where the service may contribute to the welfare of the. Church and her children throughout the world"

Naples 200 churches escaped. All of them suffered at least broken windows and 8 few sections pitted by shell fragments. Of 25 which were very badly damaged, 15 were historically famous.
 Most important of these is Santa Chiara, the oldest church in Ma ples. Here were some of the finest sculptured monuments in all south- ern Italy and the famous tombs Of the Angevin kings, including that of Robert of Anjou.
 The church was hit by bombs. Later it Sas swept by fire. The en- tire inside was gutted, and Major Gardner believes that only few of the monuments possibly can be saved.
 BARRICADES FELL
 The Italian government had gone to great lengths to protect its works of art. So far, in fact, that 1t pulp lined 8 book showing the protec- tive covering for important monu- ments. The section of Santa Chiara shows sandbags around the famous tomb of Robert of Anjou. But when the fire swept the church the sand bags fell down and the whole top of the tomb is destroyed.
 AMG's policy in cases like this has been to advance money to keep damage to important cultural monuments from growing worse. There is no thought of restoration by AMG, but as in the case of Santa Chiara, ANG is arranging to have temporary roof built over one end of the church to prevent rain and wind from further damaging such works of art as one day may be re- Storable.
 AMG's biggest protective project to date has been Pompeii, where al- most 200 bombs fell directly on the excavations. Several of the most famous houses were missed, but their delicate frescoes would be ru- ined unless temporarily protected.
 On the museum side, Naples was luckier than with her churches. The National Museum, which next to the British Museum has the worlds finest collection of classical and Roman sculpture, and the best pieces from Pompeii, was undamaged
