Catholics Warned
On Psychoanlysis

ROME B-CatheIics who submit
themselves to psychoanlysis ex-
pose themselves to mortal sin,
warns the current issue Of the
official monthly bulletin Tor Rome's
Catholic clergy.
An article by Msgr. Pericle
Felici, member Of 4 special COM
mission Of the Congregation for
the Discipline Of the Sacraments,
took exception particularly to the
doctrine Of Sigmund Freud, chief
developer Of psychoanalysis, that
religious sentiments are q form
Of sexual sublimation- sublime
ton with which one wants to ex-
plain all the moral activity Of
man
Therefore, he continued, "religi-
Gus sentiment would be shameful
instinct; charity would be instinct;
Christian modification would be
instinct; every noble sentiment
would be instinct.
ut Is difficult to excuse from
mortal sin anyone who, knowing
all this. adopts this method Of cure
and voluntarily submits to it."
Mortal sin, In the tenet Of the
Catholic Church, is 4 grievous sin
committed after full reflection and
full consent Of the viii. It exposes
Catholics who fall into ii to damna-
ton, unless forgiveness for 1t is
obtained before death.

PAUL ESQUINALDo
DESERVES CREDIT"
Editor, The Citizen:

Editor, The Citizen:
Let US set the record straight
on direct loans to veterans in the
Key West area.
II was noted in both Miami
papers that credit is being given
to local politicians. That, defin-
itely, is incorrect; since to our
knowledge no politician, local or
otherwise. had offered any as
sistance to Key West veterans in
their struggle to get roof over
their heads without having to
pay leeches for the benfit of
getting gouged.
An unofficial committee of vet
Grams, headed by attorney Paul
Esquinaldo and the undersigned,
started a petition rolling that
gathered momentum and size
like SNOWFALL rolling downhill.
The first petition, which was
circulated before Christmas, car
rled such weight that it caused a
stink in the Regional Office of
the Veterans Administration; and,
further. caused the Congressional
Committee to come down to Key
West for an investigation.
We now have a second petition
which we hope will bring the
money for Us who desire to buy
or build according to our own
plans and specifications so the
homes we get will be durable
and individually styled.
Let all veterans give credit to
the man to whom such credit is
due--Paul Esouinaldo: and turn
a deaf ear to the politicians.

At least 20 other prospective

The commissioner took the case
under adviSement at the end of
a session enlivened by a spirited

Before he did so, Mr.. Davis re-

should be made to raise the pay of
welfare workers. especially those

ANNAPOLIS. Md. June 26.-
Gov. McKeldin dedicated Sandy
Point State Park yesterday in
sweltering heat that made the
almost completed lighthouses seem
"a promise of relief in the days
to come.
The park is Maryland's first
venture in making salt water
bathing available to its citizens
at a State-owned beach. A TOO
acre area with 2 miles of shore
line it is being equipped to make
lockers available to more than
1000 bathers at a time and to
park more than 5000 automobiles
It is being developed according
to plans designed by the firm oi

York, designers of the facilities al
Jones Beach on Long Island. Ths
land was purchased with an ap.
preparation of $250,000. The parl

to Joseph F. Kaylor. head of the
Department of Forests and Parks.
The national emblem and the
State flag of Maryland were raised
on the two flag poles at the en-
trance.
Gov. McKeldin put a four-page
speech in his pocket because OF
the heat and confined himself to
saying few words complimentary
to the park.

Iof the time next years budget is
PLANNED.
DR.. Seckinger says he has pur-
lposely refrained from asking too
much money for tuberculosis con-
|trol and cure. because a sharply
'stepped-up budget request, pre-
|sented "cold," might lose. instead
|of gain, support from the city
heads and Congress.
This is where the Citizens Con-
ference-"'the voice of the city,
will come in: To convince the
responsible officials of the need
for an increase in anti-tubercu-
losiS expenditures.
During the past year the city
spent $3.5 million on its tubercu-
losis program.
Control Program Needed.
Nearly all of this money was
spent to maintain tuberculosis
hospitals and clinics. Only 5 per
cent could be spared for tubercu-
losis control. Yet public health
officials emphasize that tubercu-
losis incidence can never be re-
lduced until a widespread and in
tensive control program is adopted.
Uppermost among the control
measures are X-ray chest surveys.
A city-wide survey was held here
in 1948 and many new cases were
picked up. Follow-up surveys on a
much smaller scale are still going
on, but officials say they aren't
enough.
DR.. Padgett realizes that perfect
day when there will be funds
enough to X-ray all adults-and
when all adults will cooperate
lis a long way off. But he feels
that much of the disease in the
city's tuberculosis centers" could
be detected by concentrated stop
gap" drives in these highly con-
lgested areas.
The worst area for tuberculosis
in the city is that older section
roughly bounded by Rock Greek
Park, Florida avenue and the Po-
ltomac. An increasingly dangerous
area is the Deanwood section in
Northeast.
Health Department officials
know that reduction Of tubercu-
losis here will be no easy task. But
DR.. Seckinger, insisting that it can
and must be done, quotes DR..
Wade Hampton Frost, an out
standing tuberculosis expert, who
writes:
1.-THE eradication of tuberculosis
is now an expectation sufficiently
well grounded to justify shaping
our tuberculosis control program
toward this end. We have reached
1.-THE stage at which the biological
balance is against the survival Of
the tubercle bacillus the con-
troll of tuberculosis is within our

miller Aides Assert
HES Gaining Strength
lin Fight for Senate
BY the Assoeioied Press

Francis Pickens Miller began a
campaign swing into southwest
Virginia today after being as
,sured by a dozen Of his lieuten-
ants that he is gaining strength
throughout the State.
He received this encouragement
from his campaign workers in a
report session In Richmond yes
terday.
Mr.. Miller, Democratic primary
opponent of Senator Byrd, will
speak in Marion. Smyth County
tonight.
Senator Byrd, meanwhile, was
in Charlottesville today to ad-
dress the opening session of the
Institute of Public Affairs on
Federal financial problems. Be-
fore making the evening speech,
presumably non-campaign talk,
Senator Byrd was to attend a
reception in his honor at the
Hotel Monticello. He will speak
in the park at Front Royal at
8 pm. tomorrow.
Links Hin. to "Trumanism."
Yesterday, in speeches before
large audiences at Farmville and
Chase City, Senator Byrd again
linked Mr.. Miller to Truman
ism" and defended his farm vot-
ing record.
At Chase City, the Senator
cited a new FEPC bill just re-
ported out by Senate commit
tee as a sample of the Truman
ism" program he is opposing SC
bitterly. He added that Congress
would never pass an FEPC bill
as long as Southerners were ir
the Senate.
Speaking to audiences including
a large proportion Of tobacco
farmers, Senator Byrd said he was
doing everything possible to les
sen the tax on tobacco.
Senator Byrd scoffed at Millel
arguments that he was an enemy
of the farmer.
Denies REA Charges.
For one thing, he denied
charges that he had opposed
rural electrification. He said hi
had been a strong supporter" o1
REA which he called lone of the
greatest programs ever presented
to the people of this country"
Senator Byrd denounced what
he termed "the mudslinging" o1
the Miller camp and said that Isl

The lack of shade is one Of the

Sewage Plant Delays Opening.
Creation of a public bathing
beach to be used by thousands
involves a lot more than making
the shore available. One of the
things that has been delaying the
opening of Sandy Point Park is
the construction of a sewage dis
posal plant.
The water system that has been
constructed there would supply q

pacity of 500 gallons minute in

a storage of 100000 gallons con-

water as clear and fresh as thai

structed, one of the east beach
