FRIENDS IN

FRIENDS IN. CONGRESS
IN THE November 7 national elections the Virgin Is
lands lost two very good friends from the United States Sen
ate. They are Senators Willard Tydings of MARYLAND and Scott
Lucus of Illinois, both Democrats. These national leaders took
an active interest in the affairs of the Virgin Islands, and it
was Senate Majority Leader Lucas who carried the brunt
of the fight for President Truman's Civil. Rights Program,
with the Republicans and Southern Democrats joining hands
to block any further move of the measure.
THESE ISLANDS must depend in large measure for
whatever bills are passed upon the attitude of outstanding ma
tonal leaders. They are the ones who will work for deficiency
and other appropriations; who will press for passage of such
measures as lift certain restrictions on trade, and eventually
fight for return of the Internal Revenue taxes. When it is
pointed out that these friends of the Islands can bring about
much for our benefit, it is not intended to minimize the con-
tnuous efforts being made by local leaders and the admins
tration. But no one can deny that unless our petitions and
arguments, logical though they may be, fall on receptive ears,
our cause is not particularly fmthered.
OFTEN THIS paper has gone on record as favoring clos
er relations with national groups, including Negro elements
Believe it or not, the Negro vote is much sought after on the
mainland, and everyone who is acquainted with politics knows
that in that field the power to bargain is dependent upon the
power to swing and deliver votes. It is also for this reason that
this paper has continually pointed out the need for the closest
coOpefauon between virgin ldndS groups Oh ue mdIlahuI
and the people at home. While it is true that we do not vote
in national elections, nor do we send representatives to Con-
gress, yet if our cause were advanced by Influential groups on
the mainland there would be a much better chance for.
So. @ # .I@#.#M#. @.l.#

LOCAL such as Joseph Alexander, Doctor
Canegata, and others can no doubt relate their contacts with
Congressional leaders and the methods employed in making
alL-important contacts. MI. Alexander, on his numerous trips
to Washington became acquainted with Senator Tydings and
others who helped to make possible the necessary meetings
and approaches which have produced results,

one development after another
has pointed to an inevitable head
on clash between the church and
the state in Poland. At the very
tOutset Of the Holy Year, the gov
ernment issued strict orders
that no Pole was to be permitted
to go to Rome on a pilgrimage
a regulation that still stands.
Clerics Arrested.
In the intervening period, priests
and nuns have been arrested and
tried on charges of anti-state ac-
tivities, to the accompaniment OF
Communist broadcasts asking
'how long the church hierarchy
intends to go on tolerating the
activities of the reactionary clergy
against the interests of the Peo-
pies State"
On several occasions, govern
ment spokesmen have inveighed
against the Stubborn bishops, F"
warning that the state will not
tolerate the misuse of authority
over the church for political &C
tivities by the reactionary section
Of the church leadership"
Early this month, the aged

time, have been quoted as warning
that the report that Bishop Ko-
walski had made formal "submis-
sion" to the Warsaw government
must be treated with the great
est reserve"
The Communist press has hailed
the bishops reputed request fol
leniency as a victory" for the
government, and as evidence OF
President Bierut's magnanimity
toward the church.
The question Archbishop Wys-
zynski is expected to answer when
he submits report to the Vati-
can is whether Bishop Kowalski
has in fact. deviated from the
hierarchy's united stand against
all threatened encroachments on
the church's rights, and, If So
whether this act was taken will
ingly or under severe psychological
or other pressure from the police.
Intimidation Charged.
That priests in Poland are be-
ing intimidated to show 4 pro-
government attitude was one of
the charges made by Archbishop
Wyszynski and the other bishops
in q recent joint letter to Presi-
dent Beirut.
In their letter, the bishops ac-
cused the government of using
police methods and pressure to
force priests to attend specially
organized meetings at which Ca
ritas was denounced as having
been exploited by "reactionary"
church leaders as q weapon
against the state.
According to the bishops, one
list Of names purporting to show
that a large number Of priests
had attended q pro-government
meeting in Warsaw contained the
names of clergymen who had
been dead for a long time"

The Week in RELIGION
By Religious News Service

/ NStt9fS6S ~fFt~~
A long threatened full-scale
assault against the Roman Catho.
lie Church appears to be in prog
ress in Communist dominated Po-
land. One clear indication OF, thi,
is the governments newly-an.
nounced decision to confiscate al
the church's large land holdings
Climaxing q recent action plac.
ing the Polish Caritas, nationa
Catholic welfare organization, un-
der state control. the confiscatior
move is interpreted in Catholic
circles as an undisguised act o1
retaliation against the Polish
bishops for their consistent re-
fusal to play ball" with the War
saw regime.
The effect of the proposed law
would be to deprive the bishops
of their main source of income
and about 10000 monks belong
ing to religious orders of their
principal means of subsistence.
The only church lands ex-
empted from the proposed expro-
priation measure are those of less
than $50 acres. This concession.
according to Catholic sources, has
been accorded as a bribe for sup
port from the poorer clergy. One
of the governments major aims.
it is said, has been to drive a
wedge between the lower clergy
and the "recalcitrant" bishops.
Send Letter to President.
The dominant figures in the
church-state struggle are Arch
bishop Stefan Wyszynski Of War
saw and Adam Cardinal Sapieha
Of Cracow. The two prelates re-
portedly sent q letter recently to
President Boleslaw Beirut de-
claring that "a fight against
the church, against religion and
against God appears more and
more closely at hand in Poland %
Catholic circles have charged
that the Communist leaders in
Poland are seeking to build up
q case against Archbishop Wys-
nynski strong enough to bring him
to public trial. Progovernment
newspapers, they declared, have
raised q clamor against him as
"a hireling of American and Brit
ish capitalists" who Is working
against the interest Of the Peo-
pies Poland"
1t was disclosed this week that
Archbishop Wyszynski has started
an official investigation into the
case of Bishop Kazimierz Kowal-
ski of Chelmno who was ordered
placed under house arrest on Feb
ruary IA for criticizing the gov
ernment's action against Caritas,
but later was reported to have
been released through the inter-
vention of President Beirut.
What Archbishop Wyszynski is
apparently seeking to discover are
the circumstances under which
Bishop Kowalski allegedly appealed
to President Beirut for leniency
and promised to show "a correct
attitude" toward the government
in the future. His reported sub
mission" Catholic sources pointed
out, is in strange contrast to ear
lier published statements in which
the Bishop firmly opposed the
Communist regime.
Warning Reported.
Announcement of Archbishop
Wyszynski's inquiry into Bishop
Kowalski's eese came after re-
ports in London that the bishop /,
still actually under house deten-
ton, and that he is being sub
jected to pressure by the security
police to obtain Confession
that would incriminate the War
saw archbishop.
