The sending Of Gen. Mark w.
Clark to Rome as the first United
States Ambassador to the State of
Vatican City may be held up for
months, according to present indi-
cations.
The nomination is before the
Senate Committee on Foreign Re-
lations, but the Congress has adj
journed and it is not expected that
there will be any hearing on the
appointment before the second ses-
sion of the 82nd Congress convenes
in January. Members of the For
eign Relations Committee have
been quoted as saying there will be
public hearings.
Until there is Senate confirma-
ton, which must await committee
approval, General Clark could only
take up his post at the Vatican on
a recess appointment. White House
sources said today that President
Truman is not likely to make re-
cess appointment in this case.
When President Truman sent
General Clark's nomination to the
Senate few hours before the first
session of the 81st Congress sd-
iourned last Saturday, it was ac-
compsnied by a separate bill which
would specifically permit General
Clark to retain his military status
while serving in . diplomatic post.
There is an 80-year-old law which
restrains officers in the military
from occupying civilian posts in
government. 1t can be waived only
by Congress.

25 Members of Hierarchy
At National Catholic
Youth Conferenc e

CTNCTNNATI-(NC)-The major
role in the task of eradicating the
nations existing evils caused by
the denial of eternal truths" must
be shouldered by American youth,
particularly Catholic youth, Bishop
William T. Mulloy of Covington
told the third National Catholic
Youth Conference here.
Some 500 adult leaders of Cath
olic youth organizations in all sec
tions of the country came here for
the five-day sessions, arranged by
Msgr. Joseph E. Schieder, director
of the Youth Department, National
Catholic Welfare Conference.
There we're 40 separate meet
ings. Twenty five members of the
Hierarchy took part in the pro-
ceedings. Approximately 200 speak
ers addressed the various sessions.
The convention was held under the
patronage of Archbishop Karl j.
Alter of Cincinnati, and its theme
was "Youth-Christ's Ambassadors
Today"
Bishop Mulloy declared that the
nation today faces grave religious,
educational, social and economic
problems which will require years
of constructive work to solve if
we are to remain "the land of the
free" He declared that the great
er share of this task must be
shouldered by American youth. but
pointed out that not all youth is
prepared for the undertaking"
"If American youth is to be
equal to the task that faces it, -
Bishop Mulloy said, "its prepara-
ton must be founded on religion
and true Christian education. The
preservation of the noble heritage
of our country demands not mere.
ly the best in machines and mill.
tary equipment, but even more the
best in minds and wills, in culture
and learning.

Bishop Comments
On Truman More

In a statement to the daily press,
Bishop Ready called attention to
the Vatican's unique position in
world affairs" and expressed hope
that the purposes of Truman's
move would foster the spirit of
good will among our citizens"
The text of his statement fol-
lows:
Regardless of religious loyalty,
the Vatican does occupy a unique
position in world affairs. 1t is a
sovereign state, whether one likes
it or not. Thirty-seven nations have
full diplomatic relations with it.
In not even one instance have such
relations interfered with tradition
al state-church policies. England is
a fair example. The United States
presently has international agree
ments with the Vatican affecting
mail. radio and consular services.
''It is well to consider that the
action taken by our Government
was based, as it said, in the ma
tional interest The church did not
request the recognition. The
church in the United States or else
where will not especially profit
from diplomatic recognition.
"The advantage sought by our
Government as stated at the White
House was to serve the purposes
of diplomacy and humanitarian
ism Direct diplomatic relations,
the White House stated, will assist
in co-ordinating the effort to COM
bat the Communist menace
The purposes put down as the
reasons for the move are excellent.
l pray that they will be fostered
and that the spirit of good will will
grow among our citizens"
