Pope Lauded in Rites
Here Marking 10Th
Year Of His'Reign

Pope Plus XII was described
here yesterday during observances
marking the 10th anniversary OF
his coronation as the greatest
defender of human rights in our
time"
The assertion was made by the
Most Rev. James L. Connolly,
coadjutor bishop Of Falls River,
Mass, who delivered the sermon
at a commemorative mass held in
the Shrine OF the Immaculate
Conception at Catholic University
The mass drew a large attend
ance from members of the dlplo-
matte corps, Congress and official
Washington.
Following it, a reception was
held in the vestibule of the shrine.
In the receiving. line were the
Most Rev. Amleto Giovanni Cicog-
mani, the Apostolic Delegate; the
Most Rev. Patrick A. O'Boyle,
Archbishop e Washington: the
Most Rev. Francis P. Keough.
Archbishop of Baltimore; the
Most Rev. Lawrence j. Shehan,
auxiliary bishop of Baltimore; the
Most Rev. John M. Mcnamara,
auxiliary bishop Of Washington; );
Bishop Connolly and Msgr. P. j.
Mccormick. rector of Catholic
University.
Bishop Connolly declared that
in name and by vocation Pope
Plus XII is man Of peace" and
added that "he will live in his
tory as the greatest defender OF
human rights in our time"
The bishop noted that while
expounding the eternal DEGREES OF
God, he had not failed to uphold
the inalienable rights of men. "
However, he continued. the Pope's
voice has fallenAupon distracted
world as in a wilderness of sus-
picion and mistrust." He con-
tlnued:
so much discord has been
aDusede SO much does head
strong nationalism prevails that
the paths Of diplomacy have be-
come intricate and more in
volved."

Britain 10 Receive
Budget on April 6
By the Assoeioted Press

LONDON, Mar. 12.-Britain on
April 6 gets a look at its new
budget-probably the most cheer
full since the war.
Sir Stafford Cripps, Chancellor
of the EXchequer. is to take his
budget figures before Parliament
that day. Already the Labor
Governments opposition has
raised the cry of politics
They point out the London
County Council elections come the
next day. The Labor Party con-
trolls the council and is striving
to strengthen its majority.
Labor spokesmen counter by
saying it could not be much earli-
er because the new fiscal year be-
gins only on April l. And it
could not be later, they say, be-
cause of Easter holidays in mid
April.
Parliamentary observers predict
the treasury will have at least
100000 Cs8O0.000.00O) Ito
play with" in the form of tax re-
ductions. They further predict
any such reductions will come
where they will be felt the quick
est-possibly reduction or aboli-
ton of purchase taxes or lower
ing of taxes on beer and cigar
ettcS.
The purchase tax is a heavy
sales tax. paid by the retailer to
the wholesaler on most luxury
items. 1t does not cover food.
tobacco, drinks or articles in the
utility class in which the gov
ernment sets the specifications to
insure economy of price and raw
materials.
Shopkeepers are now cagey in

they would lose heavily if the
purchase tax is cut or abandoned.
At present they recover the tax

promoting people from within to
the positions that the does could
fill.
The commission's new program
makes no provision for dealing
with this problem. which is the
main factor blocking the Ye-em-
ployment of these former Govern
ment career people.
All this is causing the does to
ask that promotions within the
Government to jobs they can fill
be suspended until they are placed.
They point out that this wouldn't
block any promotions outside OF
any that might occur in the 1000
Jobs at stake. And even in these
cases, they say, the delay in pro-
noting employees would only be
of brief duration. For these ca
reerists feel that, If the commits
sion issued the promotion SuS-
pension order, the entire situation
could be cleared up in one months
time.
LIMITED PREFERENCE--Leg-
islation has been introduced IN
the House and Senate to give
greater Job protection to nom
veteran longtime career Govern
ment employees by modifying vet
erans' preference rights.
Representative Klein, Democrat,
of New York, has sponsored bill
that would put non-veteran career
employees with seven years or
more service on equal footing with
status veterans in future Govern
ment observation-disclosures pro-
grams. The only advantage vet
Grams would have would be addl-
tional credit for each year OF
service in the armed forces. Vet
Grams with status would also keep
their present advantages over non
veteran careerists with less than
seven years of service.
The bill sponsored by Senator
LANCER, Republican, of North Da-
kota, is somewhat similar. The
only difference is that Senator
Langer's bill would give veterans
double credit for each year they
spent in the armed services.
! Meanwhile. the new organlza-
tions here that has been formed
