The Weather Bureau today sang
praises of September in cold sta

Figures compiled over the years
show that average temperatures
for September are in the pleasant
COS and low 70's. Days are warm
and evenings are cool. Hurricanes
are the only bad thing about the
otherwise prefect weather.
The worst hurricanes in the
United States occur in September,

Meanwhile. the 1875 900 defense

other displaced Federal career
employees under the recent order
issued by the Civil Service Com

Federal departments and agencies

of the Senate Civil Service Com

battle with the White House over
the postmaster nominations from
his State of South Carolina.
The White House had been
holding up some of these nomina .

which caused Southern members
of Congress to charge that this
was being done to punish them

Senator Johnston. who faces a
stiff reelection fight next year
warned the administration that he
would hold up the top-bracket pay
measure-so dear to the White
Houses heart-unless the post
master patronage jobs for his
State came through.
The result was that six post
master nominations for South
Carolina were quickly sent up to
Capitol Hill and several more are

promise, Senator Johnston gave

Beran Calls On Czechs
In Struggled Sermon
10 Return TO Religion
BY the Associated Press

PRAGUE, Czechoslovakia, Sept.
5.-Archbishop Josef Beran told
Czech Catholics yesterday, in a
sermon smuggled past his Com
munist guards, they were living
amidst raging satanism." He
expressed hope the nation would
return to God like a prodigal
son.'
The archbishop, who has made
no public appearance since he
was driven from his cathedral by
shouts and catcalls June 10, made
the appeal in a sermon read in
many churches in the Prague
Archdiocese.
The original document ap-
parently was smuggled out Of the
Archbishop's palace and mimeo-
graphed secretly. for distribution
to the churches.
In Religious Terms Only.
Such smuggled communications
have been Archbishop Beran's
only link with his priests and
faithful since he was. in his own
description, "interned" in his pal
ace by the Communicated gov
ernment.
The sermon did not mention
Communism by name nor the
government with which the pre-
late has been involved in a bitter
controversy over control of church
and education. It was couched
only in terms of religion.
Archbishop Beran. in the SER
mon, pleaded with his parishion-
ers to remain steadfast in their
loyalty to the church in its hour
of trial. He said his belief that
Catholics remained loyal was my
great consolation and strength"
and held out the hope that the
church would triumph in the end.
Special Services Urged.
A postscript to the sermon. also
read in the churches, called for
special services in October and
urged that the churches be filled.
It also was announced that the
Rev. Gaetano Matousek. curate OF
the Prague Diocese, had been
named a titular bishop and aux
iliary to Archbishop Beran.
The announcement said he will
undertake duties which the Arch
bishop, because Of his confine-
ment, is not able to DO. No plans
for his conservation were made
public.

Russian Attack on Tito

MarshaI's Aide SAYS
Nv the Asxoeiatsd Rrass

BELGnADE, Yugoslavia. Sep
tember 5.-A top government
spokesman says Russia wants the
people of Yugoslavia to rebel
against Marshal Tito. but that the
Soviet anti-Yugoslav campaign
has had an opposite effect and has
unified the people behind Tito.
Moshe Pijade, q vice president
of Yugoslavia and a ranking men,
Der of Tito's Politburo, told a
mass meeting yesterday that
Yugoslavia does not fear Russia.
They (the Russians) wanted to
raise the people against the State
leadership" he said. They did
just the opposite. They cemented
the unity of the people and their
leadership"
Says Blockade Has Failed.
Pijad said the economic block
ade of Yugoslavia by Russia and
her satellites also has proved futile.
The veteran theoretician of the
Yugoslav Communist Party vehe-
mently denounced the Russian
campaign against Tito, who was
expelled from the Moscow-led
Cominform Communist 1nterna-
tional Information Bureau) Is
months ago.
He compared Russias attitude
toward Yugoslavia with Adolf
Hitler's racial" attitude toward
small countries.
Pijade spoke to a crowd gath
cred at the railroad station to
welcome some of Yugoslavia' s
voluntary" work brigades who
have been helping build a trunk
highway between Belgrade and
Yugoslavia's second city. Zagreb.
War Scare Talk Dies Down.
Singing thousands marched
through the streets in salute to
the work brigades.
War scare talk, meanwhile
died down in the Belgrade rumol
mills. Talk Of Soviet troop move
ments along the Yugoslav borders
spread SO much in recent weeks
that Washington. and London
cabled their embassies here anxi-
ously to check on the truth of the
reports.
None of them has been con-
firmed. Nor has there been any
confirmation of similar reports tc
the effect that Tito also was ma.

HONOLULU. Sept. 5.-Nego-
tiators were on their way to New

tie Hawaii's 128-day dock strike
the islands longest, toughest la
Dor tieup.
Top men of the striking CIO
International Longshoremen's and
Warehousemen's Union and rep
resentatives Of HaWaii's seven
struck stevedoring firms will sit
down at q bargaining table
Wednesday with Cyrus 8. Ching
director Of the United States Con-
ciliation Service.
The 5,000-mile transfer marks
the first time negotiations in a
Hawaii labor dispute have been
moved outside the islands. The
shift to New York was made at
Mr.. Ching's request. He was in
vited to come here, but he said
the press of mainland labor dis
putes would not permit.
Hearing Continued.
Two Federal judges continued
a hearing here on the unions
challenge to the territory's emer-
gency dock seizure law which put
the Hawaiian government into
the stevedoring business.
The union contends the law,
passed by q special session Of the
Legislature August 7, is uncon-
stitutional.
Under it, the government is
steadily loading and unloading
casgoes behind token HWU picket
lines. It has signed up 500 nom
union dockers.
Pay Demand Cut to 26c.
The strikes main issue Is the
unions demand for a raise of 80
cents in the $1.40 hourly basic
stevedore wage. In the last fu-
tile negotiations here two weeks
ago. ILWU President Harry
Bridges cut the unions demand
to. "26 cents or less" for the 1000
strikers.
As the negotiators arrived in
San Francisco by air last night.
Chairman w. Russell Starr of the
employer committee said his group
will seek a wage increase fair
not only to our employees but fair
in relation to other wages paid
in Hawaii"
Mr.. Bridges, head Of the ILWU
delegation, retorted that means
a low wage settlement and a
Hawaiian wage settlement. That
is simply more employer double
talk"
