Pro-Red Rome Paper
Links EvangeIists 10
u. 5. Secret Service
BY the Associated Press

ROME, Feb. 1.-The Commu-
nist-line newspaper Il Paese
charged yesterday that Church
of Christ evangelists "are directed
and controlled by the American
Secret Service"
Paese said in an article on the
evangelists-most OF whom are
from Texas-that Senator Con-
nally, Democrat, of Texas, is one
Of the church most important
members"
Paese's article, together with
recent ones In the Communist
Unita. indicates a complete about
face from earlier stories in which
they wrote favorably of the evan
geliStS.
Cline Paden, Brownfield, Tex,
superintendent of the Church of
Christ orphanage at Frascati. 16
miles south of Rome, said 'it's al
puzzle to us. First we were ac-
cused of being Communists, now
spies. The charge of espionage is
too absurd to merit a denial"
Campaign Charged.
He added, however, that recent
articles in the Communist press
against the young evangelists, who
first broke into print here when
they were stoned last month near
Castel Gandolfo, the summer resi-
dent of Pope Plus XII, is all part
of campaign against them.
But" he said, I'VE don't under
stand it,"
The similarity of attack both
in Unita and in the Communist
line Paese indicated clearly, how
ever, a unified direction.
The Communist press had de-
Tended the evangelists against
charges of the Vatican's loser
vatore Romano, January Is that
their activities were not religious
but Communist"
Called "Cover Up"
II Paese, in it's article yesterday
said: "It seems. further, that we
can. affirm that activity Of the
mission (the Church Of Christi is
directed and controlled by Amer
lean Secret Service and that ele-
ments OF the Secret Service oper-
ate within the mission itself and
that the orphanage as well as the
religious preaching are cover-upI
operations, inasmuch as the true
mission is political and military
In an earlier article, Unita
guessed that If one could look
through the windows of the or
phanage he would probably see
the evangelists DECIDING docu-
ments."
Paese also said that after the
UNRRA packages and the dollars
of the Marshall Plan the idea of
Atlantic pastors is not surprising"
Besides" it added. that kind
Of mission is not only operating
in Italy, but in all countries of
the (Western) lineup, from
France to Belgium, to the Neither
lands, to the Germany of Bonn"

Every type of liquor dispensing
medium except the package store
has increased here in recent years.
The 388 package stores are 18
less than were operating in 1886,
when the Commissioners decreed
that eventually the number would
be frozen at 800. Thus any license
now given up is permantly re-
tired.
On the rise were licenses for
groceries selling beer and wine;
restaurants, hotels and night
clubs; taverns selling beer and
wine; one-day licenses for picnics
and club outings and those for
statesmen.

ALASKA TIL
IS MEETING,
KET(HIKAN

KETCHIKAN, Alaska, Oct. a.
lR-Emphasizing autonomy for Alas
ka in everything from Statehood
to labor negotiations, the 9Th An
nual convention Of the Alaska Ter
ritcrial Federation of Labor opened
here yesterday
Approximately , 10 delegates and
visitors were on hand for the OPP
ening session.
A talk by Territorial Delegate Z.
L. Dob Bartlett was to highlight
today's meeting.
John Cox of Anchorage, Fedora
ton President, told delegates yes
terdav the Interior Of Alaska is
enjoying a defense boom but that
Alaska's future depends upon the
development Of raw matrials and
resources.
Winter prospects in the building
industries along the rail belt are
excellent, he said, both on public
and private construction.
I Ed Weston of Seattle, head of the
Washington State Federation of
Labor, reported a 38 percent boost
in that States industrial accident
payments and said Washington will
vote Nov. on an off-the-job disa-
bility program which already is in
effect in four states.
Another speaker, Clayton Bid
erback Of Portland, international
representatives of the plumbers and
steamfitters union, said the nee
essity for an open war against
Communism had brought about
changes in the United States and
in Alaska which would be felt for
decades.
In the past 10 years, Bilderback
said, the United States has risen
frtm "a third rate to a first rate
political power whose hurnanitar-
ian ideals buoy up most of the
world"
Also occupying the attention of
delegates is the scheduled election
of Federation officers. Although
Cox is SO far uncpposed for re-
election to the presidency, a warm
race is brewing for the organiza-
tons only full time position-ex-
ecutive secretary.
The pest is filled now by T, B.
Erickson CT Juneau. Others in the
race are A. A. owen Jr., Anchorage;
Laura Shanks, Fairbanks; and Gle
damae Cammock of Juneau.
