Jailed BY Reds,
u. S. Bishop Is
Seriously Ill

HONG KONG-NC) - Bishop
John A. O'Shea, American Vincent
ian prelate of Kanchow, Kiangsi
province, China, was annointed and
given the Last Sacraments on June
5, through a mistake made by the
city's communist officials.
Bishop O'Shea, a native of Deep
River, Conn.,, was taken seriously
i'll in prison where he has been
held by the communists since Feb
ruary 16. Through some error of
the prison wardens, he was re-
leased and allowed to remain at
the Catholic mission for three
hours. The order that was given
by mistake" was rescinded and
the ailing prelate was transferred
to city hospital. While at the mis-
sion Bishop O'Shea asked to be an
ointed and given the Last Sacra-
ments.
The sight of the sick prelate,
brought from Jail to the mission
in rickshaw, is said to have sp-
palled the priests at the church.
Suffering from pneumonia, Bishop
O'Shea was too weak to walk. His
beard was matted and filthy; his
eyes sunken and haunted looking.
Bishop O'Shea was taken from
the mission by the police and is be-
ing kept under guard at the hos
pital. When he left the prelate
was completely resigned to the
will OF God.
It is the common practice OF
the Red regime to remove ailing
prisoners, at least foreigners, from
Jail to the hospital. In many in
stances, however, they delay so long
that there is little hope of saving
their lives. Archbishop Jarre of
Tsinan and Bishop de Smedt of
Siwantze died after they were
transferred from prison to hos
pital. In the case of Archbishop
Jarre, the Reds refused any priest
to approach to administer the Last
Sacraments

Another Special
POlUer Of Priests

CUREPTO, Chile - fNC) -
What can a priest do that no one
else can do?" asked the Rev. Jo-
seph H. Cappel, Maryknoll mission
er from Norwood, Ohio, of his class
here.
Say Mass, Padre" answered one
youngster.
Hear confessions" said anoth-
er.
Give Extreme Unction," replied
q third.
Little Pedro scratched his head
thoughtfully, trying to remember
the other special powers of
priest, when his turn came. After
a moment he smiled triumphantly
and shouted out:
Speak English, Padre"

The statement stressed the duty
of the State to create conditions
that will foster the proper exercise
of the rights of citizens.
However" it said, "the State
cannot be burdened with the sole
responsibility of ensuring decent
livelihood for its citizens. All those
who employ labor, and especially
those who WELD considerable in
fluence over a country's economy,
are bound in justice to do all in
their power so to compensate their
employees that these may live at
least in frugal comfort"

South Africa's racial problem is
a complex issue that admits of no
easy solution" and calls for pru-
dent and careful planning and the
practice of charity and justice.
This view was stressed in a Joint
statement on race relations approx
ed by the Archbishops and Bishops
of the. Union of South Africa and
the Protectorates at their first
quinquennial meeting since the
Hierarchy was established last
year.
Meeting at Mariannhill, in the

ted that the racial problem is so
frequently made the plaything of
party politics without regard to the
real welfare of citizens"

spot to obtain cross-section of COM

perhaps the talk overheard by o. w.

on greater importance. He says:

helps her husband Gene operate the
place. They seem to agree that things
have gone from bad to worse. They
complain a great deal about high
prices"

depression of the sos still is etched

What about Senator Nixons $4,000
expense fund and the various chal-
lenges for candidates to reveal their
incomes and personal affairs?
In the minds of most, they were
irrelevant to the basic issues of the
campaign. That consensus might be
surprising and, perhaps. disappointing
to the political masterminds who ap-
parently expected to make store by
embarrassing their rivals.
AS matter Of fact, a great many
persons registered disgust with the
smear tactics by both sides during the
campaign and one surprising result of

businessmen who because of various
fears, either real or fancied, refused to

Magazine Publishes StOcker's
Article on Arizona Race Gains

Joseph Stocker, editor of The
Phoenix Jewish News, is the author
of an article appearing in the Oc-
tober issue of The Progressive on
progress made in race relations in
Arizona.
Much of the article deals with
the work of the Arizona Council
for Civic Unity, which draws a por-
tion of it's financial support from
the Phoenix Jewish community and
the Anti-Defamation League of
B'nai Birth. Stocker reported a
"slow but inexorable change of at
titude which has been taking place
in Arizona since World War II" and
cited such instances as the recent
desegregation of schools in Tucson.
Stocker also has articles in the
current issues of Arizona High
ways, The Rotarian and the Kiwan-
is Magazine. His piece in Arizona
Highway was illustrated in the pic
lures by Robert Markow, photo
