LINZ, Austria - (NCl - The
communist-controlled CzechoSlovak
radio heard here reports in great
detail what it calls an "all state
peace congress of Catholic priests"
which was held in Prague on Sept.
27.
While there is no possibility at
this moment to check the figures
regarding participants and the
names of prelates present, it has
been known for some time that the
communist regime has made all-out
efforts by persuasion and threats,
to induce priests to attend the
congress.
Underground reports received
here state that unwilling priests
we're threatened with imprison-
ment or deportation to labor
camps.
