DepIores Ransom
Of Flyers

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5 (INS)
One ofthe Senate's most influenti-
al members ~saidtoday that the adj
ministration made a mistake when
it paid the fines of four American
flyers held by Hungary.
Chairman Russell CD Ga, OF
the Senate Armed Services Com
mittee, said the action "Put us in
a bad light before the world"
Instead of paying the fine, he
said, the United States shouldhave
allowed the flyers to serve their
three months Jail terms and then
reward them with a bonus pay
ment of $4,000 each-the amount
Of the fines.

1T is all too easy to forget that

B0NDON-No social conditions,
modern or ancient, here or else
where, can alter the fundamental
truth that upon stable family life
the strength of a nation is built,
a joint pastoral issued by the Her
archy of England and Wales has
warned.
Addressed particularly to the
Royal Commission on Marriage and
Divorce, which has been accumu-
lating evidence from various re-
ligious, professional, social and
educational bodies prior to draft
ing new divorce legislation, the
Bishops pastoral declared bluntly
that easier divorce would bring
social disaster through the col
lapse of family life. It declared
that divorce destroys family Sc
curity, encourages legalized adult
cry and spreads crime through
broken homes.
The Hierarchy recalled that va
rious Catholic bodies. including the
Bishops themselves, had submitted
reports and recommendations to
the Royal Commission set up in
August, 1851. However, they said
the general trend of documents
pubiicized in the national press is
toward increasing laxity.
Although the views of Catholic
citizens have been submitted 70
the Royal Commission Of Mar
riage and Divorce" the Bishops
said, 'it can hardly be hoped that
they will greatly influence the
Commissioners. However courte
ously they grant us hearing, it is
clear that with so many opposing
opinions there is little hope that
the Catholic view will prevail"
However, the Hierarchy added
''the Bishops owe it to their flocks
to give guidance on matters which
vex the public conscience"
Declaring that the present di-
vorce rate in Britain "means a
broken home for thousands of
men, women and children" and
that there are a hundred times more
divorces today than at the begin.
ming of the century the Bishops
said.
"If the desires of many who ad.
vocate what they call reform are
realized, these appalling figures
will be multiplied. What that
means in misery for the children
of the land none can doubt. II is

Famed Bombed
Out Church Is
Repaired, Opened
BY Michael Derrick

LONDON (NC)-St. Ethelreda's
Church, most noted pre-Refor-
nation church in Catholic hands
in England, has been solemnly re-
opened after repair of World War
II bomb damage.
His Eminence Bernard Cardinal
Griffin officiated at the recent
ceremony at the church located at
Ely place in the heart of London.
st. Ethelreda's, one of the few
pre-Reformation churches in Eng
land now in hands of Catholics, is
administered by the Rosminian
Fathers.
Only about so Catholics now
reside in the parish, but the
church is nearly always filled by
office workers and students.
st. Ethelreda's is in reality two
churches, one above the other. The
lower portion, called the crypt, is
exactly 700 years old. Among the
relics contained in it is the hand of
st. Ethelreda who died nearly 1900
years ago, which was discovered
in the ruins of an old farmhouse
in 1911.
The hand was found encased in
silver in a niche in the wall, where
it had been hidden from 18th
century Puritan reformers. 1t was
presented to the Dominican con-
vent at Stone and later transferred
to st. Ethelreda's' when it was
restored to Catholic Worship.

Reds Subvert
Modern Art.
Artist Claims

Los Angeles (NC)-Leftwingers
have stranglehold on modern
art, anC are pushing today's
chaotic" art forms.
That's the controversial opinion
of Joseph Reeves Jr., naval reserve
lieutenant commander now a Los
Angeles portrait painter of the
conventional school. His father
was the late admiral Joseph M.
Reeves, 1934-36 commander-in-
chief of the us. Fleet.
This underground subverSion in
art" said Mr.. Reeves, lis part of
the overall communist conspiracy
to create chaos and confusion as
prelude to revolution"
Leonardo da Vinci wouldn't get
to first base because modern art
juries are stacked" with left-wing
critics, Mr.. Reeves declared in an
interview with The TidingS, Los
Angeles archdiocesan newspaper.
"The conventional artist, acting
as an independent agent, doesn't
have much chance of getting into
exhibits and museums nowadays"
he declared. Left-wingers, who
are under orders and all pulling
together like football team, have
a Stranglehold on the art. set-up.
Their influence is dominant even
in our art schools"
Using Observation-Disclosures
sion as Shibboleth, these de-
votees of multiple "isms" in art
i.e., Cubism, Futurism, Dadaism,
Expressionism, A BIS r actionism,
Surrealism-feign contempt for
those who fail to understand"
their chaotic works, he said.
Unfortunately, Mr.. Reeves con-
tends, many native Americans
have been unknowingly influenced,
and now are turning out new con-
WILSON'S on canvas.
Additional weight to this
thesis has been provided by con-
gresham George A. Dondero of
Michigan who declared in the
House of Representatives:
Communist art (this hog-scrap.
pie of art that the public does not
like, does not understand, and does
not want to buy), aided and abet-
ted by misguided Americans, is

Divorces Down
5000 In Canada
In Four Years

OTTAWA (NC) There has been
a steady decline in the number of
divorces in Canada during the past
four years. In 1947 the sotal was
8,199 and in 1851 II was 5,163.
The decline was general across
Canada. Eight of the 10 Canadian
provinces have special divorce
courts. Divorces in Quebec and
Newfoundland must 90 before a
special committee of the Federal
Senate in the form of special bills.
These two provinces are opposed
to divorce courts.
Last year three divorces we're
put through for Newfoundland and
$40 for Quebec residents.

tional by as many as half the par
entS.
Results of the survey, the second
that the st. James women have
conducted this year, were released
after several weeks work compil-
ing and analyzing the 700 answers.
Queries had gone to parents of
some 1850 children in the first
through eighth grades of st. James
School. Thus the women's group
got a remarkable 56 per cent re-
sponse to their questionnaires. Stat
isticians generally consider it a
good return if replies are received
from third of the people queried.
In order to test the TV Code on
home ground, the st. James women
in drafting their second question
naire worked from the four quail
tiles of good television listed on
the "Seal of Good Practice" which
stations and networks hewing to
the TV code are permitted to dis
play. The qualities are: Entertain
ment, Education, Culture, Infor-
nation.
Programs covered are those in the
"child viewing hours to 8 p. m.
and all day up to 8 on week-ends.
Parents with more than one child
were asked to fill out a question
naire for each of their children
within the range of ages covered.
Of the 700 returns 100 represented
children from IL to IA years old;
201 covered children from 8 to IL;
and 800 were from the 6 to age
group.

a new show on the air since the
