By the As,oeinisd Pres,

PANMUNJOM, Nov. 3.-United
States Envoy Arthur Dean today
suggested a new "all-or- nothing"
formula for arranging a Korean
peace conference. The Reds first
said the proposal contained moth
ing new, then promised to study
it overnight.
Briefly Mr.. Dean proposed a
discussion of all points offered
by both sides with "the under
standing that no agreement will
be final until we have meeting
Of minds on ALL"
Mr.. Dean told the Reds that
if they would discuss all issues
on both agendas he would ex-
change views over who should
be invited to the full-scale ne
gotiations.
DiSlikeS Bickering.
The United Nations Assembly
authorized Mr.. Dean only to Ak
a time and place for the political
conference. Several times since
the preliminary talks opened Oc-
tober 26 he has offered to listen
to Red demands that a number
Of neutrals be seated-after a
time and place are set.
The Communists insist that
composition of the parley be de-
cided first.
Mr.. Dean opened the session
by telling the Reds the world
dislikes this pickering" and pro-
posed as a suitable date for the
conference either December l or
four weeks after the preliminary
talks and.
Then he suggested his new
formula and added:
II am quite willing to exchange
views again on the composition
which we thought had already
been decided in an agreement
(the Korean armistice) signed
by both Sides"
The Reds called a 30-minute
recess to discuss the proposal.
They later asked a 30-minute
extension.
Will Reply Later.
When the session resumed the
Communist delegates said that
after preliminary study" they
had mot found any elements in
your statement which could be
conducive to progress of the
meetings"
Nonetheless, they added that
they would look it over some
more and reply Wednesday at
II am. g pm. Tuesday, EST).
Mr.. Dean told a news confer
ence after the l hour and 10
minute meeting:
II still believe we can work
this out and we are going to

Elections Involved
Purely Political
Issues In Portugal

LISBON, Portugal--(NC)-There
were no religious issues directly
involved in the Portuguese cleo
tions in which Premier Antonio
Salazar retained undisputed control
of the government.
II was the first election with an
opposition party in almost quar-
ter of a century. However, early re-
turns indicated that Premier Sala-
zar's National Union party swept
the great majority Of the 40 seats
in National Assembly.
Church officials here remained
aloof from the political campaign
preceding the elections. Indicative
Of the neutrality Of the Church
during the campaign was an in-
struction to his priests by Arch
bishop Joao Evangelista de Lima
Vidal, Bishop of Aveiro.
The Archbishop told his priests
not to give any advice To voters
beyond the fact that they should
vote and vote according to their
conscienees. The Church doesn't
intervene in purely political issues,
he stressed.

Catholic Stand On Separation
of Church-State A Tradition

ing Of American Sees, declared
that union Of Church and State
in the United States was some
thing that every patriot should
feel bound 70 resist TO the Ut-
most"
Two and a half years later, the
same prelate, Father Ellis re-
minded, told New York audience
that he regarded as the wisest pro-
vision of the u. S. Constitution to
one which stipulated that Con
gress shall make no law respecting
the establishment of religion, or
prohibiting the free exercise there
of"
One Of the most memorable
statements of the stand of the
American Catholic prelates on
Churcb-State separation, according
to Father Ellis, was contained in an
article published in 1909 in which
Cardinal James Gibbons, ArchbiSh-
op Of Baltimore, wrote: American
Catholics rejoice in our separation
of Church and State; and / can con-
ceive of no combination Of circum-
stances likely to arise which would
make a union desirable either TO
Church or State"
mo Catholic Bishop OF the
United States" Father Ellis
commenced, "eVer made more
manifest his perfect content
menf with the relations of Church
and State than he Cardinal Glib
bonsl did.
But in this attitude he has no
monopoly, for among his eontem-
porsries and friends we're outstand-
ing chmchmen who shared entire
ly the Cardinals point of view
such as, for example, John Lancas-
ter Spalding, first Bishop of Peoria;
John Ireland, first Archbishop of
St Paul; and John J. Keane, first
rector of the Catholic University
of America and later Archbishop of
Dubuque"
Stressing that "the tradition es-
tablished by the American HER
archy on the Chureh-State question
in the 18th century is still being
followed by their successors today" !"
Father Ellis recalled that in Octo-
ber. 1e47, Archbishop Richard J.
Cushing Of Boston had deplored
the attempts by critics of the
Church Ito resurrect from the
limbo of defunct controversies +. i.
the alleged danger from the Ca
tholic side of union Of Church and
State in America"

professor of Church history in the
Catholic University of America, in
an article entitled, Church and
State: An American Catholic Ira
dition," which appeared in the No
vember issue of Harper's Magazine.
''The American Hierarchy" de-
clared Father Ellis, "has always
held, and still holds, that sepsra-
tion of Church and State in this
country is the practical solution of
this age-old problem; and nowhere
will the student of American his
tory find that the Holy See has
ever rebuked them for their stand.
Father Ellis recalled that on
Jan. 25, 1948, the late Archbishop
John T. Nicholas, as chairman of
the Administrative Board of the
National Catholic Welfare Confer
ence, 'the most authoritative body
in the Catholic Church of this coun-
try" issued a statement upholding
completely Church-State Separa-
tion in the United States.
mo group in America" he quot
ed the Archbishop IS stating, "is
seeking union Of Church and
State; end least of ell are Csfho-
lies. We deny absolutely and
without any qualification that fhs
Catholic Bishops Of the United
States are seeking q union Of
Church and State by any en-
deaVcrs whatsoever"
Father Ellis devoted his article
mainly to setting down some lit
tie known and seldom recalled"
statements on the Chureh-State
question in the United States by
leading Catholic Bishops over
century and a half. He began by
quoting a statement in 1887 by Fa-
ther, afterwards Archbishop John
Carroll of Baltimore, the founder
of the American Hierarchy, who,
he said accepted "whole-heartedly
the separation OF Church-State in
the United States, with its accom-
panying principle Of equal and uni
versal religious liberation for men

"A few centuries back &. learn
ed men still postulating a divine
plan, set forth on the noble and
humane task of bringing human
reason to bear on the mastery of
the forces of nature" Mr.. Massey
said To-day we seem to have
lost sight at once of the Divine
Being and of the divine plan. We
find ourselves instead peering into
great and terrible machine with
no one in control.
Looking back through the past
few centuries we observe the in
creasing secularization of life; po-
litical, economic, intellectual and
moral" he continued.
Mr. Massey said moral life
seems TO have become little but
. matter of intelligent social sd-
iusfmenf. Religion is thus left
TO be . purely personal and pri-
vste affair" he added.
It was true there were certain
achievements in this increasingly
secular age" but the growing
cleavage of life's aspects was an
implicit denial of the essential
character of Christianity; embrac-
ing as it does the principle of love
and the practice of the oneness of
life"
Calls For Humility
MIR. Massey deplored what he
termed a loss of true humility to-
day.
Pride generates the egotism
which is the negation of love while
humility renders love possible and
serves as its basic condition" he
said. Indeed, modern education
al philosophy is inclined to reject
it. Our modern emphasis on self
expression and satisfaction. on the
supreme importance of a sense of
success, seems 10 push aside hum
ility almost as if it were a vice.
