Golden .Jubilarian
Stresses Urgent
Need For Priests

LAFAYETTE, La. - NC) -
Celebrating this year the 50th an
niversary of his ordination, Bishop
Jules B. Jeanmard of Lafayette,
devoted the major portion of his
Easter pastoral TO the need for
religious vocations.
Bishop Jeanmard quoted exten-
sively from the Holy Fathers En-
cyclical on the Catholic Priesthood,
which cited the need for more
priests las the moral needs of So
ciety are growing greater instead
of less" and the responsibility of
parents to look with favor on re-
ligious vocations of their children.
God grant" Bishop Jeanmard
wrote, that you will heed the sol
emn words of the Sovereign Pom
tiff. If you have no son to give
to the Church, you can at least
pray for an increase in the mum
Der of priestly yocations and for
the perseverance of the boys and
young men now studying for the
priesthood"

Many Protestants Listed AS
Opponents OF Birth Control

HARTFORD, Conn. NC) -
Claims that opposition to birth con-
troll is a Catholic" project were
refuted during hearings on the
14th attempt by birth control advo-
Gates to change a Connecticut State
law which prohibits physicians
from prescribing birth prevention
methods.
Testifying before the State Leg
islature,s Public Health and Safety
Committee, Attorney Joseph B,
Cooney of Hartford pointed out
that opponents of the proposed
amendment are not asking new leg
islation nor are they attempting
to enact into law so-called Cath
olic viewpoint.
"The present statute" he point
ed out, twas adopted years ago
when if there were any Catholics
in this august assembly they were
few and far between. The present
statute was not sponsored by Cath
olics so no claim can be made that
the present law was adopted by
Catholics legislating their views
into law"
To the claim that opponents of
the proposed new legislation rep
resent a small minority, Mr.. Coon
ey answered that ''the fact of the
matter is that great many people

Fear For Life
OF Priest Held
By Cuerillas

MAKASSAR, Celebes, Indonesia
-(NC) - There is still no word
from an Immaculate Heart of Mary
missionary who was seized by anti
government guerillas about a
month ago, according to his fellow
Scheut Fathers here.
While there have been rumors
that Father Henry Versteden is be-
ing treated well by his kidnapers,
and is merely being held to teach
English, Dutch and religion, his
superiors have tended to discount
them.
Meanwhile, the priest sent to the
outlying mission to replace Father
Versteden, Father P. Van Hersel,
has also been victimized by gueril-
las, il has been announced here.
Father Van Hersel was about to
90 to bed one night when two men
armed with short swords forced
their way into his house and de-
manded the keys to chests and cab
inets. Looting the priests quarters
of everything-including two chal-
ices, a ciborium, vestmentS, altar
linen, all his clothes except what
he was wearing, pens, watches and
even the altar stone-the bandits
only grinned when he protested
the profaning of the sacred objects.
Warning him not to yell for help
or to call the police, the pair turn
ed to shake hands with Father Van
Hersel before making off with
their burlap bags full of booty. As
they left, however, the altar stone
fell out of one of the bags-the
only object the priest saved of his
belongings.

Similar demands have been made
by the Parents group and other
organizations during the former re-
gime of President Miguel Aleman
Valdes. Article 3 has not been en-
forced for number of years, but
it is regarded nevertheless as a
standing threat against Catholic
and other private educational insti-
tutions.
The Parents Union stressed that
mere tolerance of the present sifU-
alton is mot q sound government
procedure" Scoring "fhe preservs-
fion of absurd laws which do not
fit in with the sentiments OF fhe
people," II declared that "fhe only
Just and prudent" procedure is TO
amend Article 3.

State Dept.
Puts MuffIer
On BlansIlard

WASHINGTON - NC) - The
State Department plans no action
on the further demands of Paul
BIanshard, anti-Catholic writer and
lecturer, that Archbishop Gerald
P. 0'Hara be deprived of his Amer
ican citizenship because he is sery-
ing as Papal Nuncio to Ireland.
The department says there is no
appropriate" action that can be
taken.
Mr.. Blanshard recently made
public that he had filed a second
demand with the State Department
that Archbishop O'Hara be strip
ped of his citizenship, and indicat-
ed that he would go to court if the
department failed to answer him.
In response to inquiries, the
State Department says:
"There being no provision of law
whereunder the American citizen
ship of any American citizen may
be attacked collaterally by a pri-
vate person, no provision whereby
the Secretary of State may revoke
the citizenship of any American
citizen, and no provision under
which he (the Secretary of State)
may be made the channel of trans
mission of such a petition by any
such private citizen to any other
officer or branch of this Govern
ment. No action respecting the pc
tition of Paul BIanshard is appro-
pirate"
The Department said it has re
ceived several" communication
from Mr.. Blanshard in connection
with this matter.
In addition to being Papal Nun
clio to Ireland, Archbishop O'Hara
is Bishop of Savannah-Atlanta, a
diocese that embraces the State of
Georgia.

Reds Could Fail

IF you make your opinion known
in this respect, If you once more
demonstrate your aim of achieving
that all the people of Mexico sup
port you in your governmental ad-
ministration, the efforts of the sec
ularists and of the communists to
agitate and divide Mexicans will
be in vain"
(This was seen as reference to
a reported communist campaign to
push the teaching of Marxism in
schools and to suppress Catholic
and other private schools now oper-
ating in the country)
1t was reported that the petition
of the Parents Union was being
carefully studied by the govern
ment and that President Ruiz Cor
tinez might reply either through
the Secretary of Interior, or per-
sonally. Meanwhile, the parents
group announced tentative plans
for a national convention to push
its campaign for amendment of Ar
ticle 3.

besides the Catholics are opposed
to this legislation"
He said a statewide referendum
would be "conclusively in opposi-
tion to the wild claims made by
one small but well financed organ
ization of Connecticut citizens"
who back birth control.
DR.. Edward B. O'Connell of New
Haven, in his testimony, pointed
out that there is no sound medical
argument in favor of changing the
present statute.
The Connecticut maternal death
rate for 1851, he reported, was l
per 10000 live births. The doctor
cited this as a new low figure new
er equalled in this country or else
where.
mot only is Connecticut = safe
place to have a baby" he stated,
"but it is probably the safest place
in the world. Birth control clinics
may flourish in other states, but
the fact is that Connecticut, with
no such legalization of birth pre-
vention information, has the low-
est maternity death rate in the en-
tire nation, and probably in the
world"
