u. ). Catholic Bishop,
Warn Democracy Of
Dangers Of Marxism

The Catholic bishops of America
warned in a formal statement last
night that two strong, essentially
incompatible ways of life will divide
the loyalties OF men and nations
in the political world of tomorrow
They are genuine democracy and
MARKHAM totalitarianism."
In a resolution adopted here be-
fore the death of President Roose-
welt and released yesterday by the
National Catholic Welfare Confer
ence, the group, consisting of 10
archbishops and bishops, declared
that while Fascism and Naziism are
close to being "only a horrible his
torical memory, genuine democracy
must be on guard against the "ac-
tive, cleverly organized and directed
opposition of MARKHAM totalitarian-
ism"
Reiterating their plea for lasting
peace based without reservation"
on the principles Of the Atlantic
Charter, the bishops said they failed
to see that the voting procedure in
the proposed council of the general
organization agreed on at Yalta was
consistent with the sovereign equal
ity of peace-loving nations recog-
nized as basic in the Dumbarton
Oaks proposal"
Draft Of Alliance.
They added:
The proposals as they stand
outline not the plan for an organi-
zation, under law, of the interna-
tional community but rather the
draft of an alliance between the
great victorious powers for the
maintenance of world peace and
the promotion of international CO.
operation in which these powers
definitely refuse to submit them
selves in every eventuality to the
world authority which they propose
to invoke in compelling other ma
tions to maintain world peace"
The proposed voting procedure
calls for the unanimous consent Of
the councils five permanent men,
bers-the United States, Russia,
Great Britain, France and China
on measures of enforcement.
The resolution declared that iso-
lationism masked in the setting
up of sphere of influence in which
great nation surrounds itself with
weak puppet states or disguised in
balance of power policy is no
answer to the worlds problems. "
Hit Polish Agreement.
The Catholic leaders said the
solution of the Polish question
agreed on by the Big Three at the
Crimea Conference was "a disap-
pointment to all who had built their
hopes on the Atlantic Charter" and
added that 1--WE are stuck by the
ominous silence of the three great
powers on Lithuania, Estonia and
Latvia."
They proposed the adoption by
the nations of the world an inter
national Bill of Rights, in which
men and groups everywhere would
be guaranteed the full enjoyment
Of their human rights"
Hope also was expressed that the
United States Government would
discharge Its full responsibility in
re-establishing all the liberated
nations Of Europe under genuine
democratic regimes"

He says he doesn't know wha'

This new "brain-truster" on tn,
