Vatican Excommunicates
Polish Cardinal S Foes
By the Assoe,o.ed Press

VATICAN CITY, Oct. 2.-The
Roman Catholic Church's penal
ty of communication lay today
upon all who have "sacriligeously
raised their hands" against Stef-
an Cardinal Wyszynski, primate
of Poland, and impeded him in
his religious duties.
The Vatican's conSistorial con-
gregation, whose prefect is Pope
Plus XII, said that all who hac
participated in the action against
the cardinal last week end fall
under provisions of two church
laws inflicting accommodation.
accommodation cuts Catho-
lies from their church and de-
prives them of its sacraments.
The type of accommodation
in the Polish case is broad and
automatic. Release from it may
be obtained only from the Pope.

Most D. c. Churches

Vandalism Raids

Washington churches are
relatively free of the whole
sale destruction suffered by
places of worship in other
areas at the hands of juve-
niles.
Police and church organi-
cations report few COM
plants. Some churches told
of broken windows and
locks broken in the course
of entries to rife poor boxes.
One complained of children
pulling tacks out of the car
pet and throwing them on
the steps.
Apparently hardest hit by
juvenile vandalism in the

non Place Methodist Church,
where the breakage of
stained glass windows costs
up to $500 annually.

Mckay Tells Maine
U. 5. Offices Share,

BY the Associated Press

ORONO, Me-, Oct. 2.-Secre-
tary of the Interior Mckay said
today use and conservation of
the Nations natural resources
must be governed by a partner
ship approach" involving joint
efforts by Federal and State gov
ernments. localities and private
interests.
II firmly believe resource con-
Servation and development is not
the sole prerogative of any one
group or any one level of govern
ment," Mr.. Mckay said.
"Quite aside from any philo-
sophical considerations of who
should do the job" he added,
"the conservation task is so vast
that all elements of our economy
must actively participate if the
Nation is to meet the challenges
OF the 1uture."
Mr.. Mckay spoke at a Univer-
sity of Maine Forestry Depart
ment convocation at which hon.
orary degrees were awarded to
f1ve men prominent in the forest
and pulp-paper industries. Their
names were not announced in
advance.
Anniversary Celebrated.
The university is celebrating
the 50th birthday of it's Forestry
Department and the 4Oth ami
verSary of its pulp and paper
technology courses.
Mr.. Mckay said "it is encour-
aging to note" that for the first
time in more than a decade pri-
vate forest owners are replanting
at the rate surprising Federal
reforestation.
In the years 1939-41, the cab

Beer Price Increase
On National Brands
Starts Next Week

Consumers of that foamy
thirst-quencher served in bot
ties. cans and stems, will start
paying more for the pleasure in
q week or so.
Distributors of premium beers
announced today they would
pass along to the retailers an
increase just imposed on them
by the brewers.
Starting next Thursday, the
retailers will pay from 10 to 81
cents more per case of "a bottles
or cans, and about so cents more
for each half-barrel or 151a gall
Ions of beer.
What this will mean to the
public is strictly up to the re-
tailers. Most retailers probably
will lift prices a penny a bottle
or can, or about IS cents a case,
and thus offset the advance to
them.
Restaurant and other on-the-
premises dfa1t pOrtlonS probably
either will increase slightly in
price or diminish proportionately
in quantity. Some restaurants
and bars may go up a nickel on
bottle beer.
While only nationally distrib-
uted beers were Immediately af-
fected, local brewerieS were con-
Sidering lifting their prices. The
hike on the national beers will
affect all parts of the country.
Breweries blamed additional
labor costs growing out of recent
Milwaukee strikes for the in
crease. But one local retailer
called the price rise a crime, :"
pointing out that the breweries
were going up about SIS a bar
rel. and with 80 cases coming
out of each barrel, it would mean
about $40 million a year to the
brewery.

GreenIease Family
Still Without Word
By the AsSocioted Press

KANSAS CITY, Oct. 2.-The
kidnapping case of 6-year -old
Bobby Greenlease went into it's
fifth day today with his wealthy
parents showing signs of des-
peration for some break.
A spokesman for the family
reiterated no word had been re-
ceived from the kidnapers since
Bobby was abducted Monday
from a private Catholic school
by a red-haired woman who
posed to a nun as his aunt.
Robert Ledterman, Tulsa
business associate of Bobby'S
multi-millionaire father, said the
family indicated a new approach
would be taken in the case un-
less word about Bobby was
received within the next few
days.
The 71-year-old father, an
automobile dealer and distribu-
tor here, today apparently had
steeled himself for the ordeal
after he was near collapse
Wednesday night. Mr.. Ledter-
man said he was little better.
Mrs. Greenlease, in her mid
40s, also was reported to be
standing the strain better. She
has been under a physicians
care since told of the abduction
q few hours after it happened.
In Washington, William c..
Doherty. president of the AFL
National Association of Letter

out for Bobby. described by

situation eventually means bank
