Marian Year
ODSGHVancGS
Hit By Red

DUBLIN - (NC) - Hungary's
chief communist theorist has warn
ed that Marian Year observanceS
must be suppressed in that coun-
try otherwise 1.-The cult OF Mary
would in the end prevail over the
cult of Marx and Lenin"
A dispatch in the Standard,
Catholic weekly here, quoted from
a speech given by Joseph Revaf,
head of the propaganda section OF
the Hungarian communist central
committee.
IF we should allow the Catholic
reactionary and conservative ele-
ments to carry out in Hungary's
countryside, without any restric-
tions and interference, their pro-
gram of special devotion to the
Virgin Mary, the cult of Mary
would in the end prevail over the
cult of Marx and Lenin and medi-
eyal superstition would again win
a victory over the minds of Hun
garian youth Revai said.
The revival of the faith during
the Marian Year will be more dan
gerous TO communist rule than a
fleet of superbombers from the
capitalist world"
