Catholics Open "a
New Institutions
In U.S., Canada


Catholic hospitals in the Col
umbus Diocese ranked high among
Catholic hospitals in the United
States in the care of the sick
during 1851. More than $1,000
acutely i'll were cared for in the
eight hospitals of the diocese dur.
ing the year, according to the Rev.
William Kappes, director of the
Catholic Welfare Bureau, Diocese
of Columbus.
AT the same time, il was learned
that at least 100000 persons
received treatment through Cat
hohc hospital and health services
In the US. and Canada. This
was reported with the publication
of the 1852 Catholic Hospital di-
rectory compiled at st. Louis by
Hospital Progress, official journal
Of the Catholic Hospital association.
300, 600 Babies
Editors of the directory said
4, 900 acutely i'll patients sought
medical care in the Catholic gen.
eral hospitals during 1851 and that
almost 100000 babies were born in
these hospitals.
According to Father Kappes,
more than 5000 babies were born
in the Catholic hospitals in the
Columbus Diocese during a COM
parable period.
The record also shows that Col
umbus holds a unique spot in
facilities for the care of the chron-
ically i'll, and for special care of
women.
"Since 1895, when it was estab-
hshed, st. Anthony's Hospital has
taken care of the chronically i'll
in addition to those with acute
Illness" Father Kappes said. "How-
ever" he added, 'sthe number of
applicants always exceeds the num-
Der of beds available. At st.
Anthony's there are 80 beds for
chronically i'll, and 72 for acute
cases"
During the past year" Father
Kappes added, "St. AIMS earned
the distinction Of becoming the
only women's hospital in
Columbus"
Thus Columbus anticipated a
need which was cited in the nat
ional directory report which said:
$50 far, only a few general hos
pitfalls, Catholic and non-Catholic,
have organized special departments
and nursing units for the care of
the chronically i'll. This is a pro-

Land Reform
Law 'Marxist'
Substitutes State For Big
Owners, Ignores Needs
Of Persons, Critics Say

MEXICO CITY, (NC) - The
disturbing growth of communist
ideas in Guatemala is demon
strated again by the LAND reform"
law recently enacted by tha
country's leftist-dominated parli-
ment.
Informed persons here share
the view expressed before passage
of the law by the Guatemalan
Catholic Weekly, Verbum, that the
measure offers "a marxist solution,
not a Christian one"
They agree that there is, indeed,
need for land reform measures
in Guatemala and they point out
that the Church there has often
cited the desirability of increasing
the number of actual landholderS.
But, they are convinced, the new
law achieves the exact opposite of
true land reform: while it takes
property away from the large
landholders it hands it over to
an even larger one: the state
The laws was drafted by leading
Guatemala marxist, Victor Manuel
Gutierrez, who recently returned
from Russia Many Soviet totali-
arian ideas, it is pointed out here,
are reflected in the new law, as
for instance:
Q) Only the use of the expro-
priated land will 60 to the tenant
farmers. Ownership remains vest
ed in the state through an agri-
cultural committee" responsible
only to the President.
(2) All questions arising from
the application of the law will
be resolved by the President and
any appeals to the courts are bar
red.
90 While, theoretically, the
original owners of the appropriated
lands are to be compensated, they
have no guaranty that the state
will meet its obligations.

Immigration Plank
But To No Avail

CHICAGO NC) War Relief
services of the National Catholic
Welfare Conference joined here
with Is national, fraternal and re-
ligious organizations, federated in
the American Committee on Spe-
cial Migration in presenting to the
Platform Committee of the Repub-
lican Party proposal for special
migration legislation in the party'S
1852 platform.
However, the platform as finally
drafted had nothing whatever to
say about immigration.
Msgr. Edward E. Swanstrom,
Executive Director of War Relief
Services and Acting Chairman of
the American Committee on Spe-
cial Migration, headed committee
of four member agencies which
appeared before the Foreign Policy
subcommittee of which Senator
Eugene d. Milliken of Colorado
was chairman.
Paul Mccormack, executive as
sistant to Monsignor Swanstrom,
was the spokesman for the group.
He urged the Republican Party to
adopt a platform plank supporting
immediate enactment of special
migration legislation designed to
help alleviate the refugee and pop
ulation stresses in Western Europe
Monsignor Swanstrom explained
after the meeting that ''The enact
ment of such a special legislative
program was advocated not only
from a self interest point of view,
but also as a reaffirmation of free
enterprise as the path to world
peace, progress and prosperity"
