AT another point in the argu-
ment, counsel for opponents of the
plan stated that in Scarsdale, NY,
the only persons who took advan-
tage of the program were Catho-
lies. AT this point, Chief Justice
Fred Nj. VinSon interrupted with
question of what that had TO do
with the case. There was no an
swer.
The chief arguments in favor of
the New York program centered
around the argument that the plan
does nothing more than implement
the parental right TO have children
instructed according to the dictates
Of their conscience. II was pointed
out that just one hour week is
devoted to the released-time pro-
gram, which was planned SO that
children would not be subjected to

Cardinal Mindszenty was born
March 30, 1892, in Csehimindszent.
His family came Of peasant stock.
After his ordination in 1915 he
served as village curate, later as a
teacher in the secondary school at
Zalaegerszeg, when the nazis threw
him in jail.
His writings and labors on behalf
OF the underprivileged extended
his reputation across the country
Soon after his conservation as Bish-
op of Veszprem in 1914 he Initiated
series OF pastoraIs urging sup
port of the prosecuted races. This
took place while the regime, col
laborating with the nazis, was bent
on exterminating the Jews.
When the nazis arrested him in
October 1914, along with 10 priests
and 16 seminarians, the then Bish-
op met his jailers dressed IN Epis-
copal robes. He wore them as he
marched off to prison.
When the Primatial See OF Es-
ztergom became vacant with the
death of Cardinal Seredi, the Holy
See, seeking a man of tremendous
moral stature in a country then SO
close TO the materialistic East
named Bishop Mindszenty to the
See. He was raised to the Sacred
College of Cardinals in December,
l945.
When he visited the Marian Con-
gress in Ottawa in l947, His Emin-
ence made a flying tour of the
United States and repeatedly ex-
pressed his gratitude for the relief
sent to Hungary by American Cath
olics.
I'VE shall never be unmindful OF
the American people or of what
they have done for us" he said.
Cardinal Mindszenty's trial" be-
fore the communist-dominated Hun
garian peoples court" took place
on February 3, 4 and 5, 1949, and
terminated in his conviction" and
life sentence at hard labor.

Planned 'Parenthood' Unit Hits
Hospitals Birth-COntrol Stand

POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y. - (NC)
Seven Poughkeepsie physicians
were asked by st. Francis Hospital
here to drop their affiliations with
the Dutchess County League of the
Planned Parenthood Association,
or resign from the medical staff of
hospital on which there are 200
doctors.
There were immediate reactions
to the order, issued by DR.. Victor
A. Battle, of the hospitals medical
board. Three of the seven decided
to leave the birth control group.
They are: DR.. John F. Rogers, for
mer president of the Dutchess
County Medical Society, DR.. Paul M.
Lass, and DR.. Martin Lesser.
DR.. William H. Meyer, medical
director OF the birth control unit,
said a special committee has been
formed to take the physicians case
to Sister M. Ann Roberta, admin
istrator Of the hospital which is OPP
Grated by the Sisters of st. Fran
els. He said the case would also be
submitted to the Duchess County
Medical Society.
Meanwhile, the hospitals posi-
tion was termed logical and just
by Msgr. Michael F. O'Shea, dean
of the clergy of Duchess County.
Everyone knows" he said,
where the hospital stands on the
question of birth control. st. Fran,
els Hospital has been, is and always
will be open to people of all races,
colors and creeds, Everyone knows
where the hospital stands and the
doctors should know People who
donated funds to the hospital knew
when they made their donations
where the hospital stands on birth
control.
"This is not a fight between
Catholic and Protestant" Monsig-
nor 0'Shea added. This is a point
on which Catholic, Protestant and
Jew should all be agreed since it
is the Bible which expressly for
bids birth control"
Sister Ann Roberta issued a
statement in which she pointed out
that there was nothing new in the

policy of ST. Francis Hospital relat-
ing to birth control.
"The hospital opened its doors in
1914" she said. There is nothing
new and there is no controversy
between ST. Francis Hospital and
any other group"
st. Francis is under the iuriSdic-
tion of the New York archdiocese
and operates under the code of
Catholic hospitals which, of course,
does not tolerate birth control
practices. Nevertheless, the minis
terial committee of the Planned
Parenthood League expressed
"amazement" over the hospitals
order.
A statement signed by the Rev.
Earl F. Spencer, First Baptist
Church, Rabbi Alton Winters, Vas
sar Temple, and the Rev. DR.. Philip
Allen Swartz, First Congregational
Church, had this to say:
"The attempt to police the
thoughts and actions of individuals
in our American democracy is un-
American and contrary to our cher
ished principles for which Amer
lean boys are suffering and dying
in Korea.
"We affirm and support the high
ethical principles of planned par
enthood. The planned family is
necessary for the well-being of this
and every other comm mum ty
throughout the world.
I'VE deplore the fact that the
Roman Catholic Church has inject
ed this divisive controversy at a
time when we need more than ever
national unity and inter-faith CO.
operation. We reaffirm our desire
for closer association with those of
our Catholic brothers who work for
democracy"
William Vogt, national director
of the planned parenthood group,
announced he has requested the
American Medical Association to
support the seven doctorS-who
are non-Catholies-as members of
his group. Mr. Vogt charged that
the hospitals demand amounted to
coercion" and added it was IAN
example of the extremes to which

Vatican Warns
Czech Priests

Prepare National TV Program Va

LONDON - (NC) - Vatican
Radio has warned Czechoslovak
priests that the Red regime there
is trying to make the Church "com-
NIT suicide by slow degrees"
You must be on guard" the
broadcast heard here said. THE
path along which you are being led
by the peace committees is more
dangerous than open schism. 1t
leads to your complete isolation
from the Pope and to the abolition
of the spiritual content of your
priestly mission among the peo-
ple."
Vatican Radio pointed out how
"the national peace committee of
the Catholic clergy" is trying to
persuade priests to "enlighten the
faithful" on the tasks of socialist
reconstruction"
THE state is now doing precisely
what the Vatican has wrongly been
charged with: using the Church for
political ends" the broadcast said
The events of last Christmas
may have taught you a lesson.
Grandfather Frost was not joke.
He was symptom of the strenuous
efforts being made to de-ChriStian-
ize national life"
Noting that many Red peace ap-
peals" at the same time brand the
Pope as an "imperialist war
monger," Vatican Radio stated
Never tolerate insults to the
Holy Father.
"As far as possible, avoid all ac-
tivitieS not exclusively part of your
work as priests. Give your flocks

sacrificing life"

ginning he had considered the COM
munists deadly enemies and was
unwilling for any compromise with
them. He proclaimed justice in
writing and in his sermons"
After World War ii, the state
ment recalled, the communists be-
gan subversiye activities in Middle
Europe with coalition governments.
In Hungary when the Communist
Party was aided to power by the
Red Army, Democratic parties re-
ceived little aid from the West,
outside of encouraging words.
Cardinal Mindszenty knew no
compromise" said Mr.. Horvath.
LAS true missionary of humani-
tarianism and Christian love the
thought of compromise was un-
bearable to him and therefore he
incurred the blind hatred of all
those who represented oppression.
He was subjected to savage attacks
and libelous accusations of the
communists"
Mr.. Horyath pointed out that
Cardinal Mindszenty in 1916 warn
ed a British Parliamentary mission
to Hungary that communist actions
could not result in democracy.
'At that time this was an unus-
ual statement because the Western
World was liable to give credit to
Soviet-communist statement" con-
tinued Mr.. Horvath. Unwilling to
serve any dictatorship, Cardinal
Mindszenty refused to enter any
compromise with the communists.
He lived with his people and for
his people and was thrown into jail
by both nazis and communists as
an enemy of the people"
Just prior to his trial Cardinal
Mindszenty said: Il have raised my
voice against injustices committed
by the nazis; therefore, must also
raise my voice against injustices
now, and must make myself the
spokesman of the faithful who are
otherwise deprived of freedom of
expression"
