Red Chinese
Progressive
Church. Fails
BY Rev. Thomas J. Bauer, NM.
Correspondent,
NC.W.C. News Service)

HONG K0NG-The progressive
Catholic Church" launched a year
ago by the Communist government
in China, is believed to number
less than 1000 members through
out the country. Many of these
so-called lay leaders of the re
formed church" were impressed
into heading the schismatic church
under threat of being punished for
past political alignments, mission
aries from China say.
The greatest danger to the Faith
in China, these missionaries add,
arises from the extinction of min
listers of religion through expul-
sion or Imprisonment. A continua-
ton of communist tactics that fore
ed 1858 foreign priests and Sis
ters out of China and imprisoned
more than 800 Chinese and foreign
priests during 1851, will be far
more destructive to the Faith than
the ill-received reformed church
movement" missionaries predict.
Tientsin and Peking, two north
ern cities with a relatively high
Catholic population, have each less
than 100 progressive Catholics. y
Shanghai is reported to have only
six progressive leaders"
Efforts to force native Bishops
or priests to assume national con
troll of the schiSmatic church have
met with complete failure. When
the Archbishop of Nanchang
tKiangsi Province) was recently
''invited" by Communist officials
to be pope" of the Catholic
Church in China, he replied that
the Church could have only one
Pope for the entire world. The
Bishop of Nanchung tSzechwar
Province) and the imprisoned Bish
op John Chang (held in Pekins
Jali) refused similar invitations in
almost identical words.
The position of Catholics in
China in regard to the reformed
church has slowly clarified itself
throughout the country. Many
who were deceived by the tern
patriotism" and patriotic duty
when the program was first intro
duced, have come to understand
the true nature of the puppel
church. 1t has been reported from
several large cities that groups oi
such misled Catholics availed them
selves Of the feast of Christmas tc
make public apology and seek re
admission into the Church.

China Reds Exploit
Prisoners OF War
For Propaganda

MANCHESTER, N.H.-(NC-Evi-
dence that Chinese communists are
using letters sent by American
prisoners of war to their relatives
TO obtain addresses for sending out
Red propaganda has been reported
by Mrs. Edmond ]. Vincent of this
city.
Mrs. Vincent said she had been
received mail from Honk Kong
and Prague, Czechoslovakia, con-
tanning booklets and bulletins
spreading the communist line.
She said the only way the com
munists could have learned her
address was by copying it from
letters sent to her by her nephew,
Pfc. Robert f. Vincent, %, who
was taken prisoner in North Korea

Lsify Attend
For the first time laymen and
laywomen. and members of relig-
ious Sisterhoods attended the so
ciety's annual meeting. In the
course of the two-day session
the Rev. Francis P. LeBuffe, ST.,
entered the Catholic Evidence
Guild. of which he is moderator,
as an associate member of the So
ciety.
Over 200 priests besides laity
and Sisters we're at the meeting.
General topic for the gathering
was "Mary's Spiritual Motherhood
of the Faithful"
A discussion over authorship of
Memorare stemmed from a point
made by theologian on the title
of "Our Mother" as applied to the
Blessed Virgin.
The Rev, William r. O'Connor of
st. Joseph's Seminary, Yonkers,
NY. won the 1851 Cardinal Spell
man Theological Award, said the IL
tie of "Our Mother" was first used
by Origen in the Third Century.
He said that previously she had
been known as the Mother of
Christ. However, the title of Our
Mother did not become universally
used until the 18th Century, Father
O'Connor added. This title never
appears in the unquestionably au-
thentic writings of St Bernard of
Clairvaux in the 18th Century, ac-
cording to the theologian.
Here discussion participants
pointed out that the Memorare was
at one time attributed by some to
st. Bernard, and that the title Our
Mother appears in it. Father O'Con-
nor said this proved that author
ship of the Memorare must be piac-
ed elsewhere. General agreement
at the open forum was that st.
Bernard is not the author OF the
celebrated prayer.
Reelected officers besides Faith
er Carol were the Rev. Francis j..
/ Connell. C.SS.R., dean of the Cath
olic University of Americas School
of Sacred Theology, vice-president;
the Rev. Kenneth B. Moore o..
Carm.. of Whitefriars Hall, Wash
ington, DC, treasurer; and Msgr.
Joseph c. Fenton, editor of the
American Ecclesiastical Review,
secretary.

Congress in Spain's second larg-
est city is to be led by His Emin-
ence Francis Cardinal Spellman,
Archbishop of New York Various
diocesan and archdioeesan groups
are to join in the Cardinal Spell

will serve the group as their hotel
and for meals at Barcelona dur
ing the ceremonies of the Eucharis-
tic Congress. Prior to their ar
rival at Barcelona the group will
visit the Shrine Of Our Lady OF
Fatima in Portugal, where Cardinal
Spellman will lead in prayers.
On June 7 the group will be re-
ceived in audience by His Holiness,

pilgrimage, to be led by Bishop
Timothy Manning, Auxiliary of Los
Angeles.
American pilgrims, along with
others from every corner of the
world, will be greeted by Bishop
Gregory Modrego of Barcelona, or
ganizef of the Congress. This dy-
manic prelate of 55, whose See was
in the front line of the Spanish
Civil War, envisioned the Barcel-
ona Congress after the Catalonian
capital was transformed from a
center of Spanish communism into
one of Spain's most devout cities.
The Church had suffered heavily
in Barcelona during the war. The
resurgence of the Faith there after
the Civil War induced Bishop Mod
rego to petition the Holy Father in
l947 to hold the Eucharistic Con
gress at Barcelona, a plea Pope
Plus was pleased to grant.

NY. Detective Master
 Minds Post Office Robbery

NEW YORK, (P)-It was tough for Detective Nathan Mennen, fel- low officers thought, when his younger brother was arrested last fall in a $29,OOO Brooklyn post office burglary.
 It was even tougher Wednes- day.
 The 40-year-old Mennen him. self was arrested, suspended from the police force and accused of being the leader of a five-man gang that staged the post office job.
 Brother Irving Mennen, 37, al- legedly was one of the gang.
 Nathan had been assigned to in- vestigate the case. When his bro ther was arrested, he was re- moved from it. Later, he was de noted to patrolman for his poor work.
 But for 13 years he had been considered a model officer.

Navy neuicvce Stranded Plane Off Ice Island
17th NAVAL DISTRICT HEAD

17th NAVAL DISTRICT HEAD QUARTERS, Kodiak, (AMNS) = After a complete engine change in three and a half days, the Navy patrol bomber that has been stranded on the ice island near the North Pole since April 5, land ed safely at Thule, Greenland, on Thursday.
 The new engine arrived at "Fletcher's Island" April 18 in an Air Force C-54 after the Navy crew members and Air Force in- habitants of the ice island labored night and day to construct run way capable of holding this larg- est of planes to land on the polar cap. The engine crew of eight, from Kodiak had arrived on the ice island several days earlier.
 According to Fleet Aircraft Ser vice, under normal conditions in warm hangar it takes eight men three days to change an engine. That It. Trotter and his seven men were able to perform the task on the exposed ice in only three and half days is a credit not only to the men who must have worked around the clock, but to the lessons the Navy has learned in Operation Ski Jump.
 The Navy loaded 13,500 pounds of equipment including the engine and "A" frame for hoisting the engine into position into the C-54. This included a 750 pound pre- fabricated hut to protect the men from the elements while working, and two "Salamanders" gasoline aircraft heaters. They left Ko- diak April 8.
 The Navy P2V was stranded on the ice island after the engine faltered following a take-off dur ing the Navy's operational tests on the last phase of Ski Jump.

The trial. before a jury of II

One of the witnesses. Maj. JUS
tin B. johnson of the Marine
Corps, refused to answer questions
about visits he was supposed to
have made with the young woman

grounds of fear of possible self
determination.

in the case also began to refuse
to answer questions. A bench con-
ference then was called and the
trial was recessed until after
lunch.
Trial is in the United States
