narrow back canals of the By

by the art of Titan. Tintoretto,
Veronese and Sansovino. AS the
graceful barque glided noise
lessly between the handsome

the only sound was the gentle

The gondolier calls out as he
rounds a bend into the NOON

too drenched with romance to

The rumor that Carlos Bes-
tigui, who startled the fashion,
able world with the most sump-
tuous costume ball of the
century last September. would
give another ball in Venice this
month was erroneous. Venetians
say that Bestigui was so over
come by the criticism Of the
press that he will never give
another. The Venetians are
sorry. He brought millions and
millions of lire into the town.
Every needleworker, wig design

had all the work they could
handle for weeks on end. Ameri-
can diplomats, however, were
advised not to attend. Venetian
socialites wonder why. Venice

Professor Finds Fossil Pollen
Shows Climate Is Getting Driel

the theory that the eli
mate is getting warmer and drier
and that this probably will go on
for several hundred years.
The deposits in the lake beds,
he said, form a reliable record
of changes in vegetation and eli
mate.
In New Mexico, for example
fossil pollen shows a gradual
change in recent centuries from
a predominance Of spruce to pine
forests. Spruce is associated with
cool, moist climate; pine with
warm. dry conditions. Hence the
conclusion that the change is tt
warmer and drier climate.
The conclusion was supported
by drillings near Mexico City

WARSAW, Poland. Dec. 81
Poland accused the United States
today of flying two spies from
Wiesbaden November 4 and para
chuting them 40 miles behind hel
Baltic Sea frontier. A press an
nouncement said the two were
arrested and had confessed.
(That story is obviously a
fake" said a United States Air
Force spokesman at Wiesbaden,
West Germany. He said there
was no record of an American
plane having been anywhere IN
the Baltic area near Poland on
that day.
(The charge recalled a Spate
of similar accusations against
the United States a year ago,
when Communist countries were
shooting at a provision of the
Mutual Security Act for the aid
of anti-CommuniSt exiles. At
that time the Communists de-

Poland Breaks Uneasy Truce
In Breakdown on Hierarchy

| The Cracow archdiocese has
had no archbishop since the death
last year of Adam Cardinal Sa-
pieha. Archbishop Baziak, on
whose arrest no details are avail
able, has been serving only as adj
ministrator pending the appoint
ment of an archbishop by the
Vatican.
In the Katowice diocese the
three bishops were removed fol-
lowing violent Communist press
campaign against them.
Criticized on Election Stand.
The Communist organs accused
the prelates of working against
the State by organizing a cam
paign to collect parents sigma
lures on a petition demanding that
children be given religious instruc-
ton. They also were accused of
urging Catholics not to vote in
the recent national election. Vot-
ers in the election were given a
single list of pro-Communist
candidates.
Immediately following the dis
appearance of the bishops the
Communist authorities announced
that patriotic" priest, the Rev.
Flip Bednorz, had been appointed
Vicar Capitular of Katowice and
had taken over the diocese"
Such an appointment is canon
ically illegal since Bishop Herbert
Bednorz is co-adjutor with the
right Of succession. This means
that he becomes bishop of the do
Icese in the event of the death or
Iincapacity of Bishop Adamski.
Collaborationist Installed.
Father Flip Bednorz, the COL
laborationist priest, has been in

ministrator of the diocese and
took the oath Of loyalty to the
regime.
[ Meanwhile, it was reported
early this week that a number of
priests in Kielce had been arrest
ed for refusing to cooperate in

was said, sought to substitute for

YugosIav Parliament
Ratifies Decision 10
Break With Vatican
By the Asseeioiad Pres,

BELGRADE, Yugoslayia, Dec.
27.-With Marshal Tito looking
on. the Yugoslav parliament today
unanimously ratified the govern
ment's decision to break diplo-
matte relations with the Vatican.
Before the vote, Petar STAN
bolic, Premier of Serbia and a
power in the central Communist
government, denounced the recent
designation of Archbishop Alojzijc
Stepinac of Zagreb as a Cardinal
He said Pope Plus appointment Of
the YugoSlav churchman was a
propaganda move designed to
serve the purposes of Italian i'm
perialism."
Tito Due to be President.
Parliament then recessed until
January 10 when it will take up,
and almost certainly approve, a
new Constitution which is expect
ed to make Premier Tito the coun-
try's first president.
Besides acting on relations with
the Vatican. Parliament approved
a budget of S763 million. of which
80 per cent is marked for defense,
and adopted a new cradle to-the-
grave social security program.
Employers will pay the entire cost
of the social services.
The government announced the
severance of relations with the
Vatican December II. charging
the Holy See was hostile toward
Yugoslavia and interfering in her
internal affairs.
Called Insult to Country.
Previously, Marshal Tito had
declared it an insult to Yugo-
slavia "that the war criminal
stepinac was named for Cardi-
nal"
Archbishop Stepinac was re-
leased conditionally from prison
a year ago after serving five years
of a 16-year sentence en- charges
of collaboration with Axis occu-
piers and their puppet regime in
Croatia. He is not now allowed to
leave his local parish and has said
he would not go to Rome to re-
ceive his red Cardinals hat, as he
probably would not be let back
into the country.

The Week in Religion
By Religious News Service

Poland's Communist regime has
broken. the uneasy truce which
has existed between church and
state since the end of the war,
las q result, five Catholic bishops
were reported under arrest this
week and many priests were TAX
Ien into custody.
The Polish regime thus follows
the rest of the satellite govern
ments in striking direct blow
at the Catholic leadership. Until
now, the Communists, ruling a
nation that is more than 80 per
cent Catholic. have been rela-
lively cautious in their actions
against the church. Only a single
lprelate had been arrested until
the beginning of this month. He
is Bishop Ceslaus Kaczmark OF
|Kielce, who has been in prison
for more than a year on charges
tof underground anti-state activi-
tiles.
Four More Bishops Arrested.
The arrest of four more bishops
was reported a few days ago by
Polish Catholic sources in Lon
don. One of them is Archbishop
Eugene Baziak of Lwow, tenn
porary administrator of the Cra-
COW archdiocese. His arrest was
confirmed in Vatican circles.
The other three prelates are
the bishops of Katowice diocese,
Bishop Stanley Adamski, Coadju-
tor Bishop Herbert Bednorz and
Auxiliary Bishop Julius Bieniek.
Earlier, the three had been re-
ported as. having disappeared.
In addition to Archbishop Ba-
ziak at least 20 Cracow priests
have been taken into custody
within the past three weeks. They
were arrested in series of raids
