1.-The Week in Religion
By Religious News Service

Reports of intensified anti-re-
ligious persecution in Communist
China leave no doubt that the
Communists there are now en-
gagged in an all-out drive against
the church.
Communist property seizures
have left missionaries handicap
ped and financially impoverished
In many areas. open hostility has
forced Chinese Christians to hold
services and meetings under
ground. Meanwhile. the flood OF
anti-Christian propaganda is in
Icreasing rapidly.
In the summer of 1850. the
Peking Government published a
manifesto in which well-known
Chinese Christian leaders, ap-
parently hopeful of establishing
la friendly understanding with the
Communists regime, proclaimed
"self1government, self support and
self propagation" as the aim of
the churches and other religious
institutions. Their idea was that
foreign missionaries and all out
side support should be withdrawn
gradually and the churches be-
come completely native in leader
ship and control.
Church Property Seized
However, the Mao regime soon
began to betray it's impatience
with the plan. The last year has
witnessed wholesale seizures of
Protestant and Roman Catholic
properties, large-scale expulsions
OF foreign missionaries, and, fin
ally, the execution or imprison-
ment of foreign missionaries on
various trumped-up charges. More
recently. native clergymen have
more and more begun to ex-
perience the scourage of persecu-
ton.
At present, there is only a COM
paratively insignificant number
OF Protestant missionaries in Com
munlst China. while the number
OF Catholic priests. nuns, and
brothers has dwindled to about
1000. as compared with the to-
tai OF over 5000 in 1948. Among
the hundreds of bishops, priests,
and nuns expelled from the coun-
try during 1851 was Archbishop
Antonio Riberi. Papal Internun-
clio to China.
Clerics In Red Jails.
A Rome report in September
said that 10 bishops and over 200
priests were being held prisoner

Charges Truman
With Disservice
In Vatican Case

NEW YORK, -(AP)- The policy
making board of Americas larg-
est protestant group says Presi-
dent Truman has done "a grave
disservice to our country in NOM
mating an Ambassador to the
Vatican.
The general board of the Ma
tional Council of the Churches of
Christ in the u. S. A. said in a
statement:
only a prompt withdrawal or
rejection of the Presidents pro-
posal can save this conutry from
a most unfortunate ard unnecesS-
ary controversy with reactions
that will be cumulated as the is
sue becomes more widely recogn-
lied.
The boards request that Mr.
Truman withdraw or the senate
reject the nomination was made
at an emergency session.
The statement, disclaimed any
religious prejudice, protested what
it termed "an alarming threat to
basic American principles.
1t called the nomination wrong
in principle. useless in practice,
and disastrous to the national un-
ity of the American people"
The boards statement did not
mention the name of Gen. Mark
w. Clark, whose nomination as
Ambassador to the Vatican was
sent to the Senate by President
Truman on Oct 20 congress ad-
journed that same day, without
action on the nomination.
The national councils board
authorized the couEcirs president.

Knox Sheriff., to appoint a COM

statement.

would announce the committe
membership next week. The COM
mittee will seek to coordinate pro-
testant opposition to the ambas-
sadorship.
The board is composed cf 125
representatives of % protestant
and Eastern Orthodox churches.

Dope Adicts
Increase
Says CAB"

CHICAGO, Ill. = If all of the
most gifted musicians who have
been arrested, convicted and i'm
prisoned for being found with dope
were assembled in one place, one
of the greatest all-star orchestras
in the history of the band business
could be organized.
So says the famous band leader,
Cab Clloway, in a signed article
in the current issue OF EBONY,
Negro picture magazine, in which
he blasts the use of dope among
musicians being the most serious
menace to the band business to-
day
Galloway says the number of
performers who have turned to
dope of one kind or another is
increasing at an alarming rate
and now constitutes very size
able minority. Many of these
musicians are hopelessly enslaved
to the heavy drugs = morphine,
heroin and opium"
AS for marijuana, while perhaps
not as serious as the other drugs,
Galloway scotches the popular be-
lief that this drug, known as the
"reefer," improves music ability.
81 have long known that mari
iuana injuries rather than aids
musicianship," says the Hi-De-Ho
maestro. my observation proves
to me it slows down his reactions,
muddles his thinking and distorts
his tone" sfes Ntsbsst&A
Many young musicians ae re-
iecting the "reefers" as not OF
sufficient stimulant and taking on
the far more dangerous drug OF
"heroin," says Galloway. This is
not only damaging the reputation
of the musician, but is hamperlng
him from getting job" ne adds
Galloway pleads for an immedi-
ate check of the spread of the use
of dope among musicians or face
