WASHINGTON - NC) - Pri-

sent the very essence of individual
freedom" according to an editorial
in The American Federationist, of
ficial American Federation of La
Dor magazine.
The magazine replied to an ac-
cusation by President James B. Co
nant of Harvard University that
independent high schools are a
threat to our democratic unity"
He made this charge at a meeting
of public school administrators.
The American Federationist said
1--WE want no single pattern that
discourages inquiry and individu-
ality and contains minds within
prescribed limits. Our public
school system should facilitate
greater individual freedom - not
less"

added. Every often the broad
minded Christian is little removed
from the good pagan. The aston
ishing thing is that in spite of so
little positive practice of Christian
ity, religion figures largely among
the subjects debated by the ordin-
airy man. That is our chance"
Father Coyne told the $50 dele
gates to promote conversions
through ordinary daily contacts
with their fellowmen and not to
leave it to the clergy.
After some years experience
both of missions for non-Catholics
and of inquiry classes, | can truth
fully say that no amount of public
advertising or propaganda from
the pulpit has anything like the
value of solid results that personal
contact has," he said.

Reds Danish Bishop Paschang;
7 u. S. Prelates Left In China

HONG KONG (NC) - The ex-
pulsion of Bishop Adolph j. Pas
chang, of Honeymoon, has reduced
to seven the number of American
Bishops still in communist China.
Bishop PaSchang, who arrived here
via the Portuguese colony of Macao
was tortured and beaten last win
ter after refusing to meet Red ex-
tortion demands.
Bishop Paschang, who is a Mary
knoller, is native of Martinsburg,
Mo. The 57-year-old prelate dis
closed here that he was summoned
on June ! to report to the Security
Police in Honeymoon, who told him:
"You haven't kept the laws. The
people don't want you anymore.
You must. quit the country within
five days.
On the morning of June 6, police
guards brought him by boat to
Macao, where they took away all
the cash he was carrying and sent
him. across the border penniless.
The Bishop borrowed money to
complete his journey to Hong
Kong.
Bishop Pasehang came INTO pro-
minence last November when the
communists subjected him to tor
ture to force him to pay FLOOD
protection fees" amounting to some
$1,000 in United States money.
The demand was based on the pre-
text that he owed this assessment
for repair work on dikes carried
on over the past 20 years. During
most of that time, Bishop Paschang
was not even in Honeymoon.
ManItandled By Reds
The prelate recalled that, when
he refused the Reds demands, he
was taken by members of the COM
muniSt Farmers Union" to a de-
nunciation meeting, with his hands
tied behind his back and rope
around his neck.
At the meeting, Bishop Paschang
was ordered to kneel before the

Capital noted his reputation for an
ti-Catholic utterancesi
The Washington Times Herald,
in a special story reporting the ac-
ton of the Methodist northeastern
iurisdictional conference in Harris
burg, Pa, called Bishop Oman an
"outspoken foe of Catholicism" 1t
said he is also on record as being
against "any holy war on commun-
ism"
The Washington Post said he
is NOTED for never flinching from
a religious controversy" and add
ed that the 'two-fisted preacher
has "flailed with equal enthusiasm
at what he has considered excesses
of capitalism and Catholicism. ("
The Post also said he took lead
ing part in the founding of Protest
ants and other Americans United
for Separation of Church and
State"
The nearby Baltimore Sun, also
in a special story, said: His direct
attacks upon some policies of the
Catholic Church within recent
years have inspired answering
charges, and his stand on interna-
tional affairs, especially as to the
most effective means of fighting
communism, brought his name into
the records of the House Commit
tee on Un-American Activities"

Cermany's Socialists Oppose
Catholic Chancellor Adenauer

have joined hands with the Liberal
party and excluded the Christian
Democrats from the government,
socialist election victory would
pave the way for policies re-
sembIing those of the red rulers
in Eastern Germany.
In Western Berlin too, socialist
influences continue to be asserted
in favor of a school system unac-
ceptable to the Christian churches.
AS Petrusblatt, Berlin diocesan
weekly, points out, the word God"
cannot be found in the proposals
for recognizing public schools.
Christianity is relegated to sub
ordinate position and merely con-
sidered along with "other cultural
manifestations" since tolerance"
is said to preclude any emphasis
on a specific religion.

The Sacred Priesthood

God Himself literally sows in
the generous hearts of many
young men the precious seed of
vocation; but human means
of cultivating this seed must
not be neglected. There are in
Vulnerable ways and countless
holy means suggested by the
Holy Spirit; and all such salu-
tary works which strive to pre-
serve, promote and help priest
ly vocations, We praise and
bless with all Our heart. If He
who offers even a cup of water
to one of the least of the dis
ciples of Christ shall not lose
his reward" what reward will
he receive who places, so to
speak, into the pure hands of a
young priest the sacred chalice,
in which is contained the Blood
OF Redemption; who helps him
to lift it up to heaven, a pledge
of peace and of blessing for
mankind?
