TBest- Loved Chaplain Has Neither Rank NorPoy

with the enlisted men. Both off,
Gers and men like him for his shy
kindness and the comfort he gives
in their personal problems as
much as his personal bravery.
Recently the battalion gave him
/ a captured motorcycle for his own
use. He was so proud of it that
they then presented him with two
captured Russian made trucks for
his mission school,
When I met Father Frank the
battalion was in a rest area and
he sat under a tree with some
officers. They were joking about
his front line patrols and the years
he spent as boy in the Irish
Republican Army before he stud
led for the priesthood.
II notice you clean your rifle
Ievery day, laughed 1t. James D.
Currie of Linesville. Pa. young
platoon leader who had just re-
ceived a battlefield promotion.
"Ah, yes, clean it," said Father
Frank in his rich brogue, but !
never shot man in my life-I
never had the wish to-
Because he speaks Korean flu
emily he is the battalion's best in
terrogator. The officers made
Father Frank tell about one night
attack by the enemy in force.
THE next morning there were
six or seven bodies and one
wounded Korean lying by rice

DIVISION, Korea, Oct. 17.-When
his boys go on patrol. Father
Frank quietly picks up his rifle
and goes with them.
When they are wounded, he
helps carry, them out of danger
And when death reaches out to
take them, he gives them the last
rites of his church. He has done
that for more than 100 men in
less than nine weeks and each
time it has left him with a more
sore heart. For they were no
longer strangers to him but close
friends. @
"I would rather be with them In
the foxholes," he said. Il
think Father Frank is the best
loved chaplain ] have ever met.
He is a unique chaplain in a
unique war. He doesn't want to
be thought of as a hero. But he
is-by American soldiers who
don't want themselves thought of
as heroes either, although they
are.
His name is Francis Leo Woods
| and he is a 46-year- -old Catholic
missionary priest who came to
Korea from Ireland Is years ago.
Five years ago American occupa-
ton troops rescued him from
starving at the hands of Japanese
captors. He feels the Americans
kept him from an even worse fate
by landing here again and rolling
back the Communist North Ko-
reanS. ..
"Twice they saved my life-and
i wanted to do something in re-
turn" he said. He looked up an
old friend-Lt. Col. James w
Edwards of Dallas. who had been
here in 1945. Col. Edwards said
he would like to accept the priest S
offer to serve as chaplain with his
battalion but explained in en-
barrassment he couldn't offer him
any Army rank or pay because
Father Frank wasn't an American
citizen.
"I want neither rank nor pay"
Father Frank answered quietly.
Since then the stocky. ruddy-
faced priest has become the most
popular figure in the I'd Infantry
Division. And his advice is as
eagerly sought by his regimental
commanders as by the newest
recruit.
Il think my lack of rank has
been help in my work." Father
Frank said. He sleeps in the bat

Partnership With Vatican
Is Opposed by DR.. Dawson

Opposition to the United States

nism was voiced last night by DR..
Joseph M. Dawson, recording sec
retary of Protestants and Other
Americans United for Separation

Let us fight our battle with
Communism on clean-cut issues of
fundamental freedoms for all
men, uncomplicated by a tie-up
with the distressed policies of the
Roman Catholic Church." DIR.
Dawson told a meeting at Takoma
Park Baptist Church, Takoma
Park, Md.
The speaker said a proposal
that the United States should ap-

the Vatican should be rejected ION
the specific grounds that the
Vatican was violating religious
liberty and we were violating our
own Constitution which requires
complete separation of church
and state"
