VATICAN CITY - His Holiness
Pope Plus XII has sent an Apostolic
Letter to the Catholic priests and
people of China exhorting them
to stand firm in the Faith and to
offer up their sufferings so that
God may finally grant peace and
freedom to the Church in China.
The Pontiff declared that the
faithful "cede to none in their
love of fatherland," thus answer
ing the communist accusations that
Catholics are ''unpatriotic" and
"enemies of the people" He en-
phasized that the Church neither
seeks nor serves any worldly pow
er, but 'loves all men, whatever
be their race or nation"
The 2,000-word Apostolic Letter,
named after its opening words
"Cupimus Imprimis" (We desire in

In fact, if you belong to that old
fashioned group whose opinions of
the Catholic press date from a
quarter of century ago, school
Of critics who haven't taken a look
in our direction since, you face the
surprise of your life. While you
slept, the Catholic press came of
age.
AS you observe Press Month,
therefore, avoid excesses of hun1il-
ity. Too long have ill-informed
people made Catholic Press Month
an occasion for unfounded COM
plant and carping criticism. Lest
these deeply ingrained habits sur
vive in those who have failed to
keep abreast of our modern growth,
when you observe Catholic Press
Month this year insist on pointing
with justifiable pride to a great
and growing, an efficient and eff
fective press. For in very truth
your Catholic press has become a
wonderful institution!
Hail, therefore, with understand
able satisfaction the remarkable
development, the solid accomplish
ment achieved through the years
by that vast and still growing in
stitution, your American Catholic
press No more, as in unhappier
days long gone, need you rely on
appeals to mere loyalty for support.
Yours is a first class product to
boost, capable in every way of full
filling the high purpose to which
it is consecrated. Very decidedly
has your Catholic Press grown up
and advanced to take its place in
the front ranks of American jour-
naliSm.
Salute, too, during these days,
the efficient, dedicated men and
women who labor to produce our
Catholic papers and periodicals.
Their uncommon devotion to the
spread and defense of truth puts
to shame the arrogant ignorance
and distorted sense of values dis
played by too many present day
neWSmen.
Do not permit Catholic Press
Month to slip by without taking
a good, close look at what these
devoted press people of yours pro-
vide for your information and edi-

that you need what they provide,

In an eloquent plea for clear
understanding of the present world
crisis, Mr.. Twohy traced the con-
sequences of three centuries of
secularization: Master of how to
live with no remembrance of why,
loaded with goods but with lost
vision of the Good, with a grow
ing terror in his heart before a
worldwide spectacle of human dis
order, misery and defilement, man
stands today at the dead end of a
long, wrong road"
Speaking with quiet emphasis
and telling effect, the one-time
Governor of the Federal Home
Loan Bank System called it an
"oversimplification" to make Rus
sian Communism "the villain of all
our ills"
Communism is "a poisonous
weed of the West" he said,
"grown insour secular philosophy"
Describing the modern exclusion
of religion from the organized
culture and business of living" he
deplored the fact that $50 many
of our own people seem ready to
identity their great Christian in
heritance with the ruling culture
and the jungle economics of our
time"
Mr.. Twohy concluded with a
ringing appeal for enliStments in
"this great war of the spirit" "Our
contribution" he declared, sis to
live our faith up to the hilt--not
in high disputes and pretensions,
but in all the bread and butter
dealings and duties of our daily
lives, in spirit of charity, of hui
mility, and of purity of heart, as
citizens of a young and beloved
Republic whose mysterious destiny,
now wrapped in the folds of Gods
Providence, we must help to shape,
and as children of the Catholic
Church to which by divine war
rant is committed the spiritual
fortunes of the Race"
Partial text of Mr.. Twohy's ad-
dress follows:
"There are abundant evidences
that the laymen's retreat move
ment, as it is expanding and null
tiplying in American Catholic life,
is destined to become one of the
major defenses in depth of be-
leaguered Christianity in this age
of confusion.
Cannot Escape History
To grasp the significance of this
fact and the hidden reasons for
it, one ought not only to examine
the World Revolution now engulf-
ing the human family, but also try
to assess the present status of the
Church in relation to it. It is doubt
full whether anyone now living can
wholly escape the terrible impact
of our times. For some mysterious
reason, we of this generation are
the spectators-yes, and the be-
wildered actors and victims, of one
of the great upheavals of recorded
HISTORIAN upheaval which the
late Pontiff, Plus XI, with a pro-
phetic vision, likened to the Flood
in its potential and universal devas-
tation.

Lay Retreats
New Impetus

Bishop Ready called the retreat
movement an immensely import
ant work for the Diocese" in a
brief address to the Catholic Lay
mems Retreat League at its annual
banquet Sunday night in the Vir-
ginia Hotel, Columbus.
Several hundred retreatants at
tended the dinner, which followed
Pontifical Benediction and recita-
ton of the Rosary in st. Joseph
Cathedral.
Cornelius ]. Tracy was installed
as new president of the league at
the dinner-meeting, succeeding
James P. Charles, who served in
that office for two years.
Other new officers installed Sun
day were: A. e. Fernandez, vice
president; and Ed o. Ryan, treas
urer. Ralph ]. Kramer, Sr., contin-
ues as secretary.
Principal speaker at the banquet
was James F. Twohy, Catholic lay
leader and former Catholic Hour
radio orator. CA report of his ad-
dress is carried in the adjacent col
umn.)
The secretary's report of Retreat
League activities for 1851 showed
a total number of ATS retreatants
who took part in the Is retreats
for men at st. Therese's Shrine,

Religious activities in the family
circle receive the greatest emphas-

The Bureau also emphasizes

family holy hours, and so on; and
action on the economic front, which
includes support of decent housing
programs, concern for industry's
growing encroachment on family
life as more mothers take full-time
jobs, and similar problems.
A monk of ST. Benedict Abbey,
Atchison, Kans., Father Schmied-
eler's Ph.D. thesis at the Catholic
University of America led him into
his present work. Writing on "The
Industrial Revolution and the
Home" he pointed out that in viii
lage and farm homes, all the norm
al activities-work, recreation, So
cial life-tend to unite the family
and strengthen its bonds, while in
cities the same activities tend to
split the family apart.

WASHINGTON - NC) - Re-
ligious persecution in Rumania is
of such extreme violence that the
structure of the Catholic Church
''has been brutally crushed" ac-
cording to the Rumanian National
Committee. Every one of the coun-
try's eleven Catholic Bishops is in
prison.
The Committee, set up in this
country for the purpose of repre-
senting the people of Rumania and
promoting the cause of their lib

letter expressing gratitude to the
American Bishops for their ines
sage of sympathy and cheer" to the
victims of communist persecution
and for the help given by American
Catholics to those who suffer for
their faith.
Referring to a resolution adopt
ed by the United States Bishops at
their annual meeting here last No
vember, the letter said:
"That noble message of Christian
charity and human solidarity may
certainly be expected to be a price
less and universal source of inspira-
ton, reviving the failing forces
of all the peoples now fallen in
bondage behind the Iron Curtain,
in their desperate and unequal
struggle to defend their very being
against the forces of evil, and to
reconquer their lost liberty"

Constantin Visoianu, former Ru-

and President of the Rumanian Ma
tional Committee, was addressed
