Score In China
Here's The Record To Date
Of Their War Against
The Church And Clergy

HONG KONG - radio, Nc -
Two Archbishops and two Bishops
have died in prison. One Archbish-
op and fourteen Bishops are
now in jail. One Archbish-
op and 3 Bishops are under house
arrest. Twelve Archbishops and 25
Bishops have been expelled from
China.
This is the record of the Chi
nese communist war against the
Hiararchy as Catholics throughout
the world turn their eyes toward
that mission country in observance
of World Mission Sunday
But the decimation of the Ca.
tholic hierarchy in China tells only
part of the story of Red persecu-
ton. Since the communists took
over China, the number of foreign
missionaries has by murder, ex-
pulsion and other pressure, been
reduced from 5,400 to S71.
The total there now includes $50

and 233 Sisters.

now without a Bishop Many of the
Chinese Catholics are also without

AS fellow Catholics throughout
the world pray for strength for
their three million brethren in
China, the Chinese Catholics face
the greatest test in the history Of
the faith there.

Austin Asks UN
"To Begin Work
In Name OF Cod

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.-tNC)
The UN General Assembly, at its
opening session, was called upon
by Warren R. Austin of the United
States to begin all its work in the
name of God. LAS we take our
places in the General Assembly
and at the Council meetings" said
Mr.. Austin, "let US begin all our
work in the name of God, for the
solution of all our problems is a
spiritual one" He called for the
collective practice of truth, JUS
tice, and friendship among ma
tons" to radiate into every re-
gion among all peoples"
Mr.. Austin's quiet but earnest
appeal was in its way an analysis
of the fundamental divisions
which lie at the root of the major
issues in the crowded 7f-item
agenda adopted by the Assembly.

Sees U.N. AS Best Hope
For The Establishment
OF Peace In The World

WASHINGTON - NC) - Hopes
for a peaceful world through the
United Nations "can be fulfilled by
patient cooperation, hard work and
trust in Divine Providence" DIR.
Raymond F. Mccoy, president of
the Catholic Association for Inter-
national Peace, said in statement
issued here.
The statement was one OF three
issued by the National Citizens
Committee for United Nations Day,
which is being observed today, Fri
day, Oct. "a. The committee invited
DR.. Mccoy to make a statement as
a Catholic leader.
Catholic Leader
DR.. Mccoy is the director of the
graduate division of Xavier Uni
versity, Cincinnati, and is men,
Der of the executive council of the
us. National Commission for
UNESCO. The text of his state
ment follows:
Oct. "a is United Nations Day.
The United Nations stands today
seven years after its foundation
as the organization most closely ap-
proximating a union of the peo-
pies of the whole world to estab-
lish Justice and maintain peace.
BY its successes, and despite its
failures, it has shown above all that
with continuing effort on the part
of all men a more perfect world
community in which the moral law
and its international applications
will be honored and upheld by all
nations is indeed possible.
No organization can be effective
without the support of the govern
ments and peoples who comprise
it. Therefore it is imperative that
all Americans take constructive
interest in the tremendous tasks
of the United Nations, helping in
sofar as they are able to under
stand and make its work known
and to strengthen its dedication to
peace.
Cod-Givsn Rights
Basic to the achievements of the
United Nations is the Declaration
of Human Rights, and the Cove
nant which is now being worked
out to protect better these God
given rights of all men. Unless the
sacred rights and duties of the In
dividual and the family are recog-
nized, the rights and duties OF the
nations and the world community
can have no meaning.
AS to shortcomings in the UN
Charter that have become obvious
in these first years of its operation,
it is to be hoped that adequate re-
visions will be made at least by

Claims Chile
Is ResentfuI
Toward US.
Swing To Left Blamed On
Sparseness OF American
Financial Assistance

SANTIAGO, Chile - MC) - Re-
action against United States for
eign policy in regard to Tito-ruled
Yugoslavia was one of the factors
responsible for the recent election
of a strongly nationalist left-wing
president in Chile.
This was the opinion expressed
here by Rodimiro Tonic, a mem
Der of the Chilean Senate and a
leader of the National Falangist
Party, described as made up of
Christian Democrats.
In an address to the upper cham
Der, Senator Tonic declared that
the election of 75-year-old Gen.
Carlos Ibanez del Campo, who was
supported by the Agrarian-Labor-
ite Party and by independents, was
due partly to Chilean resentment
over the wide discrepancy between
the amount of economic aid the
United States is giving to strength
en- Yugoslavia as potential ally
in case of Soviet aggression, and
the assistance to Latin America as
a part of the North American de-
fense alliance.
Senator Tomis asserted that Yu-
gosIavia, with only Is million in
habitants, which neither buys from
nor sells to the American nations
nor has signed the North Atlantic
Pact, received a billion dollars
within the past four years. On the
other hand, he stated, Latin Amer
lea, which has 150,000,000 people
and supplies 40 per cent of the
raw materials imported by the
US, has received only 1884, ,000,-
600. This sum was allotted under
mutual trade and other agree
ments intended to improve the in
dustrial, economic, social, health,
and educational standards in the
Latin American republics.
Commentators here agreed gen.
orally that the elections had re-
suited in "a political earthquake"
Neither General Ibanez nor any of
his three rivals for office is Cath
olic. Efforts to gain official Cath
oIic support for the various candi-
dates were silenced by the state
ment of His Eminence Jose Cardi-
nal Caro-, Archbishop of Santiago,

candidates for the President of the
Republic"

1855, when the question of amend
ment comes up before the tenth
annual UN General Assembly. The
present attempt to establish col
lective security through the joint
defense of South Korea against ag-
gression is a courageous undertak-
ing, but lasting peace will be
achieved only when all nations rec
ognize that they themselves are
subject to the moral law as EN-
bodied in just international agree
ments.
The United Nations through its
specialized agencies has accom-
plished much good work in the
fight against the enemies of man,
be they ignorance, hatred, hunger,
disease, fear or destitution. 1t is
in this field of social and economic
Justice that the common good of
all men can be effectively and OBJ
viously served. Here it is that an
international organ ization can
properly gauge the needs and re-
sources of all peoples and help di-
rect and encourage mems efforts
to help themselves and each other
in Justice and charity.
A hopeful world can be a peace
fuf world. Our hopes in the United
Nations can be fulfilled by patient
cooperation, hard work and trust in
Divine Providence. Peace is the ar
dent desire of all men, be they
slave or free, and peace is the gift
of God to men OF good will.

The Bishop and three other
priests we're sentenced to death
after the trial by a Red court in
Sofia in which the defendants had
been accused of tgroundless and
absurd" charges Of spying for the

that ''the cynical disregard for
truth characterized the whole
trial"

Lay Leaders Protest
The stand by our State govern
ment came after Catholic lay lead
ers in various parts of the country
called upon it to bring before the
United Nations the case Of the de-
PENDANTS and the trumped up
charges which resulted in their
death sentences.
The remainder of the group we're
sentenced to prison terms varying
from three to 20 years.
Last week presidents of the Ma
tional Council Of Catholic Men and
Catholic Women and Catholic
Youth urged Secretary of State
Dean Acheson to bring the social
ed trial" before the bar of world
opinion at the U.N.
In the meantime, the Bulgarian
National Committee, an exile
group in Washington, had written
to President Truman asking his
help in the case.
From Dublin came an appeal
from Archbishop Gerald P 0'Hara,
papal envoy to Ireland, for aid in
/ the case.

80 Percent
OF Americans
Believe In God
Catholic Magazine Survey
Shows That Roots OF
Nations Tree Sound

ST. PAUL, Mimi. --(NC)- An
overwhelming percentage of Amer
leans believe in God, according to
results of survey sponsored by
The Catholic Digest here.
The nationwide study found
that 80 per cent of all adult Amer
leans say they believe in God, and
only l per cent say they do not.
These results, The Catholic Dig
est said, show that the roots of
our national tree are sound" es-
pecially since similar studies in
other countries - notably Canada
and Czechoslovakia - indicate the
extent of disbelief to be as high as
2 per cent.
Americans who said they believe
in God were asked how strong
their belief is. Eighty-seven per
cent said they were absolutely GER
tain and 10 per cent were fairly
sure. Two per cent were not quite
sure.
National Survey
Ben Gaffin and Associates of
Chicago, an independent CONNER
cial opinion-research firm, made
the survey. Questions were put
to representative cross-section
of the country's adult population
by professional interviewers. The
QUESTIONABLE itself was reviewed by
DR.. George Gallup of the Gallup
Poll
Belief in God was slightly higher
among Catholics than among Pro-
testants as a whole or than among
those who said they were Jewish.
And 90 per cent of the Catholic
Delivers in God said they were
absolutely certain Of this belief,
compared to 81 per cent for Pro
testants as whole, 10 per cent for
Jewish, and SIS per cent for other
or no denominations.
Women stood at close to 100 per
cent in belief, while men mustered
only SO per cent. An increase of
belief was found among those over
55. Fewer college graduates were
b o u e ly certain about their
belief in God than those at lower
education levels.
Income was found to have little
to do with the results. The upper
i n m and the lower-income
groups varied only slightly from
the middle group.
Among various occupations, a
shade less than 100 per cent of the
farmers believe, and 81 per cent
of the professional group.
Location in city or country show
ed little effect. 1t was steady in
most sections, with the New Eng
land States and the Middle Allan
tic paralleling the Pacific, and
losing two points off 100 per cent
compared to the East South Cen
trail. In the Mountain area of the
West there was a drop to 81 per
cent, which The Catholic Digest
said might indicate scarcity OF
churches and religious influence.
From another source it was
learned that the u. S. Catholic pop
ulation increased 47% since 1896

Bulgarian court to the early
martyrs who refused to put Caesar

"Ot course, these priests are
guilty of the charges. That is their
glory. How could they fail to be
guilty of endeavoring to thwart the
twisted, slavish system which de
nies and blasphemes Him whose
heralds they are? They were order

like the early martyrs, they re
