The S3rd Congress has now com
pleted its organization and heard
the President give his state of the
Union address, in which he made
several recommendation requir-
ing action by the House and the
Senate.
Work on Capitol Hill will now

and | believe that you may look
forward to the Congress giving
early approval to his requests. The
ineffective wage and price con-
trolls will expire on April 30, 1858,
and think that majority in Con-
gross agreed with Mr.. Eisenhower
in his contention that the infla-
tionarv spiral can be better con-
trolled without them. Likewise the
President was on firm ground when
he advised that material and
product controls, except for de-
Tense priorities, should be dropped
upon their expiration June 30,
1858. so that our competitive
market may start functioning.
During the next several months
YOU may expect to see Congress
working on the following: Study

balanced and thereby reduce con-
tinued study of Hoover Commits
sion recommendations in order to
make governmental operations

ther value. that the outside world
has learned something of the in
credible hardships. atrocities and
murders perpetrated during the 30
months OF the project.
One cleric. returned TO a vii.
lage in TransyIvania, said that OF
the original band of 450 Ruman-
ian essfern-rifs Catholic priests,
as died or were murdered since
mid-1o50.
He told of priests blown to bits
in dynamite blasting operations,
of mysterious drownings in the
Danube, of slower deaths from
exhaustion or malaria or typhus.
Conditions in the prison camps. he
said, made skeletons OF the most
hardy. Rations were meager. toilet
facilities did not exist, filth was
everywhere.
Priests Were Targets
On occasion, he recalled, COM
munist guards made sport of shoot
ing at the priests-a sort of target
practice. Many were wounded and
some killed in this brutal game.
I'VE had no communication
from the outside world since Au-
gust, 1885," the aged priest said,
land we were completely isolated
from our fellow slave laborers."
often during the night. he re.
lated, the camp inmates would
risk death to approach the barb
ed-wire enclosure to talk TO a
priest or go TO confession.
The Pennsylvania priest identi-
fled the original group of priests
as predominantly Greek innate.
but said ten were Latin-rite priests
of German origin from the prov
ince of Banat.
While refusing to identity by
name murdered priests for fear of
repriSals TO their families, he did
say that Father Ion Heber, former
secretary to jailed Bishop Angus
tine Pacha of Timisoara, was an
inmate of the camp and that Fa-
ther Joseph Waitner, former di-
rector of the chancellory of Timi-
soara, died in the camp.
When the waterway was discon-
tinued. he said, the communists
promised TO restore citizenship
rights TO priests who would join
the Rumanian Orthodox (schis-
maticl Church. None joined. he
said, so they were herded into a
boat at the port OF Constanta and
sent to Odessa, deeper behind the
Iron Curtain. He did not comment
on their final destination or fate.

Parents Role as
Censor Outlined

STEUBENVILLE. O.-NC)-It's
up to the parents to stem the flood
of filthy reading that is reaching
their children, a priest asserted
here.
Righteous indignation or legal
action isn't enough unless parents
take an interest in what their chill
dren are reading and what neigh
borhood stores are selling to them,
Father Robert f. Marrer, Steuben-
vile diocesan director of the Ma
tional Organization of Decent Lit
erature, stated.
Listing what parents can do, the
priest suggested:
u Know what their children are
reading and seeing.
2 Help them develop standards
by pointing out values of correct
reading.
81 Allow children to read only
approved comics.
Check neighborhood stores -
They will be surprised to see the
availability of indecent literature. "
Neighborhood groups can also or
ganize committees to call on drug
store operators and ask them to re
move offensive comics. making
monthly checks TO see if the deal
ers cooperate.
There is no narroW-mindedness
in campaign for decent litera-
ture," Father Marrer said. If citi-
zens condone moral filth, then
they, before God, shall be held re-
sponsible for the destruction OF
the morals of the young"
