NEW YORK R-- Bright spring
prospects are heralded today by
many business executives.

ously missing voices. And many
business leaders are squirting
nervously at the future, trying to
guess if the year will end as
prosperously as it has begun.
But here are a few of those say
ing today that prospects for their
companies just now are particular
ly bright:

Salon Warns
" Western Allies
To Watch Tito

WASHINGTON - f(NC| - A
pertinent word of warning" that
Yugoslavia's Marsha Tito should
be carefully watched by the west
ern democracies came from Rep.
Harold d. DonohUe OF Massachu-
sets.
Under an extension of remarks.
the legislator inserted in the Con-
gressional Record an editorial
which appeared in the Worcester
Mass) Evening Gazette, which de-
clared in part:
Tito should be watched care
fully by the West until he per-
forms some deeds himself-such
as ending religious persecution in
Yugoslavia. Two hundred Catholic
priests are still in prison there and
some 500 are missing In 1916, the
Tito regime slew 369 priests, inn
prisoned IT'S and exiled 400 more
Catholic orphanages were liquidat-
ed and the Catholic press is still
suppressed.
"And Aloysius Cardinal Stepinac,
Roman Catholic prelate now con-
fined to his home village of Kra-
sic, who committed the crime of
opposing Tito--what OF him? The
Yugoslav president says he will
take no further action on the Car
dinal. Says he is only a pawn in
the Vatican's world chess game. .

Clinic Serves
1000 Monthly

HONG KONG - The free clinic
at Kaulungtsai refugee camp here
now handles about 1000 patients a
month, reports Father Peter A.
Reilly, Maryknoll Missioner from
Roxbury, Mass.
Stated by members of the Cath
olic Women's League the clinic
is open twice week to serve the
camps 10000 refugees
The majority of its patients are
children whose parents have no
regular employment.
All undernourished babies re-
ceive a tin of condensed milk each
week.
To the clinics staff, the most
gratifying part of their work is
watching such infants develop from
tiny, wizened, grey-faced old men
to normal, plump and happy babies.

Hungry Germans
Shocked all Reds
Refusal of Food

BERLIN - NC) - The people
of the Soviet Zone of Germany are
shocked and diSgusted by the COM
munists' blunt rejection of the food
offer made by President Eisenhow-
er.
Both Catholic and Protestant
Church circles here have much in
formation on the distressing food
situation in practically all parts of
the Soviet Zone. The food supply
has been unsatisfactory for a long
time and has become even more
deficient since the countrywide up
rising against Communist rule last
June IL.
The facts of President Eisen-
hower's Is million dollar food offer
and its rejection have become
known throughout the eastern zone
and are believed to have further
strengthened the opposition against
the communist regime, which de
pends for its existence on the Sow
ct occupation army.

Bierut's Order Tightens Red
Moose on Church in Poland
Executive Order of President Boleslaw Beirut
Viewed Direct Violations of Agreements

tions" placed on the decree by
Church officials.
Both the February decree and
the new executive order" are
viewed by informed sources here
as direct violations of the Polish
communist Constitution of 1852
and the Church-State agreement
reached in 1850.
The February decree stipulated
that all church appointments are
subject to prior state approval
The sweeping nature of the decree
is underscored by the new presi-
Dental order which states that the
term church post" means "every
post occupied by clerical persons,
permanent or temporary, as as
sistants or substitutes. withlgs the
Catholic Church"
The new order also states that
the communist government as
sumes the right to approve the Gre
alton. modification or abolition of
any Church post. The order adds
that if the government finds any
one holding Church office who
"actS contrary to law or public
order" it can order his dismissal
from office.
The complete control of the
Church personnel-from parish as
sistant to Archbishop-which the
government usurps through the de-
cree and presidential order, it is
pointed out here, amounts to max
ing all priests and Bishops civil
servants who can be hired and
fired at the whim of the Led au-
thorities.
The February decree, as explain
ed in the new presidential order.
is seen here as working toward
these six communist aims:
(D TO sever the connections OF
the Church in Poland with the
Holy See,
(2) TO remove ell priests who
are "ineonvenienf" TO the COM
munist regime,
t3l 10 appoint priests svbserv-
lent TO the Reds,
t4) 10 make Church appoint
menis and personnel changes de.
pendent upon state authorities.
ts) 10 place all Bishops under
the authority of the Bureau for
Religious Affairs, and
(6) TO create a National Church
In Poland, governed by eommun-
isf officials.

Machine Case
Stirs Debate

Contraceptive vending machines,
banned in Columbus by city ordi-
nance, were the center of contro-
versy in Toledo and Lucas County
this week.
Common Pleas Judge Hardey
Straub granted a temporary delay
in the removal Of the machines
from Toledo taverns and service
stations. A hearing on a perma-
nent injunction is scheduled Aug.
4.
The request for the restraining
order came from Marion Mckay,
RID, 2 Bryan, who asked the court
to prohibit Toledo's safety director
and police chief from Kidding the
city of machines this week. Direc-
tor William H. Kirck had ordered
their removal.
McKay's petition claimed that
"prophylactics so dispensed .
are not contraceptives and are sold
for the prevention of disease only
and for no other purpose.
Outcome of the controversy may
hinge on somewhat similar case,
which is expected to be decided
in the fall in the Court of Appeals
of Franklin County The Court has
continued in force the temporary
restraining order enloining the
State Liquor Department from TAX
ing action against McDon-
aid, o., permit holder.
In Toledo, a Catholic Chronicle
survey indicated that 81 per cent
of taverns were found to have ma
chimes. Ten Catholic men found
123 machines in 213 places of busi-
ness.
But in Columbus, spot check OF
approximately 20 taverns, drive
ins, restaurants and service sta
tions failed to uncover any OF the
vending machines. One machine
was noted in Whitehall however.
The machines were outlawed by
Columbus city ordinance four years
ago, upon recommendation OF Z,
c. RED" Cole, former safety di,
rector. Wholesale drug houses and
accredited retail drug stores are
permitted to sell contraceptives
