RICHARD PATTEE
Tito In London

cerned about the position of the
Churches in Yugoslavia. This
question was put by an Anglican.
Tito refused to admit to any per-
secution at all. The Catholic
problem, according to the dicta.
tor. was essentially political and
must be treated on a political
plane. The Vatican, according to
the Yugoslav thesis, is RESPONSE
bic for the tension and the un-
fortunate thing is that Vatican
and Italian policy coincide to an
astonishing degree.
II would seem from this utter.
ance that Tito's visit to the West
has not served in the least to
rid him of the absurd and rather
primitive idea that the Holy See
and the Italian government are
virtually one. Even the slightest
knowledge of history - recent
and remote-ought to prove to
anyone that the Holy See has
certainly not seen eye to eye
with the Quirinal and that even
under the guidance of De Gas
peri, there is no inevitable COIN
cidence of views. Tito seemed to
be convinced that the Catholic
problem" was something that
must be liquidated since it is a
heritage of the Austro-Hungarian
empire and sort of anachron-
ism that still cluttered up the
landscape
Political in Britain, Too
Tito was forced to admit, un-
der polite prodding, that all was
not we'll with the Church situa-
tion and that the Churches them
selves, especially the Catholic,
were not contented with things
as they stand. He then expressed
the hope that new measure to
be proposed before autumn would
clarity this situation immeasur-
ably One of the Catholic men,
bers of the delegation, Mr.. Hugh
Fraser, stated very bluntly
that the religious question in
Yugosiavia was also political
one in Britain. for if the atti-
tude of the government con-
tinued. it was going to be in
creasingly hard for both major
parties to sell the Christian peo-
pie of the nation the idea of col
laboration with Tito.
II was finally suggested that
il the present Yugoslav regime
is committed to collaboration
with the West, it might be we'll
for Tito to comprehend that the
West is what it is because of the
Christian tradition: that it is
high time that this not be for
gotten. Tito, according to the
article in The Tablet. acknowl-
edged this as true and promised
to give ii consideration.
In view of the recent CONVEX
sations with members of the
Yugoslav hierarchy, it will be of
the greatest interest to see what
bill or proposal comes within
the next few months aimed at
settling the religious problem.
This promise of Tito's would
seem to be fairly specific.

ter of Christ's death sentence ii
seems that he showed himself
less inclined to make new con-
cessions to the Jews. In the
years 36 and 81 AID, however,
he lost power. Putting down
what he considered rebellion
in Samaria he had a large num-
Der of Samaritans massacred. He
was sent to Rome at the urging
of his enemies by the legate of
Syria, Lucius Vitellius. He was
banished to Vienne in Gaul,
where Eusbeius states he COM
mitted suicide. The Abyssinian
and Coptic churches believe that
he became Christian and honor
him as a saint.
Q. What is Limbo? Were the
people released from it by Christ
,n the same place as unbdptized
infants? Why are innocent babies
kept from hedUen.
Limbo is the name for the
place to which souls excluded
from heaven through no fault of
their own are confined. 1t takes
its name from the Latin word for
border or edge because it was
considered as bordering on hell.
1t does not, however, involve
punishment, but deprivation of
the supernatural existence of
heaven and the beatific vision.
Theologians distinguish the linn
bo of the Fathers where the just
who died before Christ were de-
tanned until heaven was reopen
ed by Christ, and that for unbap-
tized infants. Heaven is not
something due to man and does
not follow from mere lack of sin.
1t is a SUPERnatural existence
and although the conditions are
simple they are absolute. Bap-
tism and death in the state of
grace are necessary Most theo-
logians hold that the infants in
limbo enjoy natural happiness.
God certainly loves all of them
more than we do. We know we
are wrong to suspect God of
cruelty.
@. What is the point of the
marks" of the Church? Who
tnUented them?
A. The marks of the Church
are signs by which men can rec
ognize the Church established by
Christ. They are to be found in
the New Testament, so we might
say they were invented by Christ
Himself. The chief marks of the
Church are four: it is one, holy,
universal and apostolic

Meeting Tonight Will Explain Cub Scout Aims and Purposes

All parents who have sons ranging in ages from eight to ten inclusive, who would like their son to become a Cub Scout are invited to a meeting to be held at the Palmer High School to- night, December 10 at pm.
 Cub Scouting is year-round, home centered program of boy action, boy achievement, boy health and boy helpfulness, de- veloped especially for parents of 8, g, and 10 year old boys to use with their sons, a scout of ficial pointed out this week. It makes good use of a period in a boys life that might otherwise be left to pure chance. It gives a boy something to work for-some- thing to look forward to-and the program is as American as the American home.
 The Cub Scout learns to re- spect his God, his country, his home and his fellow men. The ideals and activities of Cub Scout ing contribute in the best possible way toward the battle of life and the fullest appreciation of Ameri- can Citizenship.
 If you have boy who wants to be a Cub, you are invited to the "get-acquainted- withholding meeting" tonight. Parents are in- vited to bring their sons along, too.

Cattle on Worlds s Runqes Hit Peak

According to recent surveys by agricultural economists. more cat tie graze the worlds ranges than ever before.
 Since the war North and South America both graze about third more cattle than in pre-War years. Canada's cattle numbers are on the increase. Mexico cattlemen are expected to enlarge their herds if the weather permits. And the United States upsWing is ex- pected to continue despite lower prices.
 Australia and New Zealand also show a II per cent increase in the number of cattle on ranges. The greatest increase is in Africa-47 per cent
 Western Europe has about per cent more cattle than before the war, thanks in part to U. s. tech nical and financial aid.
 The only parts of the world where cattle populations are not above preWar are Russia and eastern Europe.
 Economists say this great in crease does not mean gloomy future for cattle raisers They point to the steady increase in world population and the fact that meat consumption will continue to grow and ranchers will find a market for their cattle.

SOIL CONDITlONERS
 AID LOCAL FARMERS, SOIL SCIENTIST SAYS

Soil conditioners are a help to Alaskan farmers plagued by dry spells during June and July, Soil Scientist Neil Michaelson, of the Agricultural Experiment Station in Palmer, said.
 Recent greenhouse tests at the Alaska Experiment Station show that soil conditioners such as Monsato's "Krilium" or Ameri- can Cyanamid's "Aerotil" irn- prove Alaskan soils by stabilizing a permanent porous structure. This porosity helps plants de- velop vigorous root systems that are peter able to withstand dry spells.
 Research has found that con- ditioners are most effective on Panama Valley soils which bake and become cloddy. Greenhouse tests showed that carrots grew much better on Panama soils treated with conditioner, but that lettuce did not benefit from such treatments.
 Home gardeners and farmers interested in using conditioners are cautioned to follow the manu- lecturers recommendations. These materials only stabilize a good structure resulting from tillage operations, Michaelson said. The gardener must cultivate his soil when it is in proper moisture condition to create a good struc- ture. Then a conditioner is ap- piled to stabilize this structure; otherwise it will break down easily after few days or weeks. A soil structure properly treat ed may persist for one or two seasons.

young Italian priest of northern
Italy.
This is the contention of an ar
ticle in OSServdtoTe Romano here,
entitled ''The Forgotten Priest Who
Inspired the Red Cross" The ar
ticle identifies the priest as Father
Lorenzo BarZiZza of Castiglione
dele Stiviere. He headed civic
committee which ministered to
wounded troops after bloody bat
tie in the 1859 war between the
Austrians and the Piedmontese,
the latter being aided by the
French.
The founder of the Red Cross
was Henri Dunant of Geneva, Swift
erland, who established his Red
Cross committee of Swiss citizens
in 1863. But it was the work car
ried on by Father Barzizza and his
committee a few years before
which inspired Mr.. Dunant to
found the Red Cross, the OSSerUG-
tore article says.
II was the bloody battle of Sol
ferino which led to tho formation
Of Father 5arxixxs's committee of
mercy. In that battle more than
300, 900 soldiers hurled death at
each other for an entire day. When
fhs Austrian forces withdrew in
defeat the battlefield was Uttered
with 10000 soldiers.
The victorious Frenc h-Pied-
montese forces, headed by General
Lavallette, could not cope with the
tremendous task of ministering to
all the wounded. General Lavallette
called on the citizens of Castiglione
for hand, and the town formed a
committee Of mercy headed by its
pastor, Father Barzizza.
For 20 days the priest labored
tirelessly, directing the towns
charitable work, OsserUGtore re-
lates. Every home was turned in
to an infirmary for the wounded.
Twelve hospitals were improvised

ly ill. A transportation system was
established to take some Of the
less seriously wounded to hospitals
in nearby cities. The priest him
