Pope Says Treaties
Will Not Work Unless
Backed by Moral Law
BY the Asseeiaisd Press

VATICAN CITY. Oct 26.-Pope
Plus XII said today agreements and
pacts- would be fruitful only If sus-
tanned by moral law.
The Pope expressed this view in a
letter to Msgr. M. Keller, Bishop of
Muenster, on the occasion of the
300th anniversary of the Peace of
Westphalia. The Peace of West
phalia ended the Thirty Years War
which involved most Of Europe. It
was a blow to temporal power of
the church, remade the map of Eu-
rope, and reduced the strength of
the Holy Roman Empire.
Peace with God is the cause and
basis Of peace which unites men in
a fecund pact" the pontiff said.
He recalled the work of Apostolic
Nuncio Fabius Chigi, later Pope
Alexander VII, who, in the eight
years Of negotiations for the peace
of Westphalia. protected the in
terests and rights Of the church. u
He was mot discouraged by the
many difficulties advanced by in
terested parties" the pontiff said.
He continued:
THE regions Of Europe, which
after long series of years in pros.
perity and fitness are laboring pain.
fully, rely not on the strength of ar
internal war, but on reciprocal
agreements and pacts to obtain
them less bitter destiny.
But pacts pass away unless g
moral law sustains them. This rule
also holds with the religion thai
consolidates and consecrates the
peace"

obliquely, as the front man" for
forces which would undermine

The President prefaced his charge
with a warning that this country
could lose its liberty, just as had
italy, Germany and Czechoslovakia.
Look back over history, he de-
clared, 'and you will find that
wherever ruthless men have de-
stroyed liberty and human rights,
certain economic and social forces

What are these forces that

Apartment Rent Boost
OF 79b Recommended
For Mclean Gardens

Tenants of apartments at Mclean
Gardens will have to pay rent in
creases of nearly 7 per cent If
Recommendation of Denis K. Lane,
examiner of the District Rent Con-
troll Administration, becomes effec-
tive.
Mr.. Lane recommended the rent
increase yesterday. 1t is to become
effective November S unless the ten
ants file an appeal.
Mclean Gardens is the 2,020-unit
wartime housing development on
Wisconsin avenue. 1t is owned by
the Fairmac Corp, which sought
10 per cent increase in apartment
rents and fiat boost of SIS a month
for dormitory quarters.
Mr.. Lane recommended that the
rent of the developments 1900 dor
mitory rooms not be raised.
Apartment rents now range from
$50 a. month for an efficiency unit
to $3.50 for a two-bedroom suite.
The increases sought by the owners
would have amounted to $65, ,595 q
year; the increases recommended by
Mr.. Lane total $45,l17. There are
720 apartment units.
Pal A. Porter, former OPA ad-
ministrator, represented tenants of
the development and argued against
the increase. The corporation was
represented by John J. Wilson.
In his decision favoring higher
rents for the apartments, Mr.. Lane
said substantial increases in taxes.

other costs justified increased rents.
Mr.. Lane also heard arguments

petition under advisement. The
apartments house has 103 units.
Rent for a two-room unit, now
$32.50, would be increased to $35,
while rent OF the largest apartments,
six rooms and two baths, would be
increased from $132.5O to $143 if the

MIR. Dulles said there was nothing
surprising about the uniformity of
Communist activities, for it is what
they have been consistently taught
and what they are being taught
today" He added:
The Soviet, they are told, will
not be safe until the non Communist
nations have been so reduced in
strength and numbers that Com
munist influence is dominant
throughout the world, and that, in
such efforts the Soviet Communist
Party is the vanguard the shock
brigade Of the world proletariat.' j"
1T Is furthermore taught that
this result cannot be achieved by
peaceful reform, but only by meth
Cd Of revolution.
Therefore when, throughout the
world. Communists seek to weaken
and overthrow non-Communist gov
ernments and use force, coercion
and terrorism, they are only doing
what their foreign leaders have
taught them to do"
Calls Means Inadequate.
Because of Communist violence,
Mr. Dulles said, "the United Ma

from the heavy burden OF arma-

Is a. major topic with the Society
Of Motion Picture Engineers, in

Three speakers at the opening OF
the convention yesterday described
how television can be projected on

not have to stay home to see events
of outstanding interest, such as
championship fights and political
conventions.
The motion picture engineers
heard Eric Johnston, president of
the Motion Picture Producers As
sociation, reitsrate his prediction
that there will be no war in the
foreseeable future, but that Amer
leans must be prepared to live in
the turmoil of constant threat of
war. Mr.. Johnston recently re-
turned from Moscow, after persuad-
ing the Russians to permit some
American films to be shown there.
Donald F. Hyndman of the East
man Kodak Co., who spoke last
night, said that it would cost thea
ter owners $4,000 to $4,000 to in
stall either instantaneous large
screen television or intermediate
film television. In an informal
