Communists have obstructed
collection of church taxes in
East Berlin, hampered public
fund-raising drives and reduced
state subsidies to the church.
DR.. Scharf said, however. that
permission given to hold the
synod meeting in East Berlin
was encouraging. Last year the
Communists forbade the synod
to meet in the Soviet Zone.
Further evidence that the
East German regime is riding
close herd on the churches came
from Will Arndt, head of the
East Berlin Religious Affairs
Department, who recently fed
to West Berlin to escape arrest
by his former Communist COLI
leagues. j
He disclosed that three differ

police, the Socialist Unity Com

curity Ministry-were watching
services held in East Berlin and
other Soviet Zone churches.
In China, the Communists
have stepped up the rate of ex-
pulsion of foreign Roman Cath
olic missionaries. In November
alone, the Catholic center at
Hong Kong reported. 81 mis-
sionaries were expelled.
Only about 800 foreign Cath
olic missionaries now remain in
China, the center said, and many
of these are in prison or under

The Week in Religion
By Religious News Service

Reports from Berlin ana
Prague this week pointed up the
continuing struggle of the
churches behind the Iron Cur
tain to survive under the hostile
thumb of Communism.
According to the Prague Ra-
dio, the Czechoslovak Politburo.
through its official organ has
called for a new struggle against
religion and other dangerous"
ideologies.
The policy directive was laid
down in an editorial printed in
Rude Pravo as the Politburo
met at Prague.
The editorial declared that
"aI (Communist) party organi-
cations, from top to bottom,
must take up the struggle
against serious shortcomings in
party propaganda"
Rude Pravo said Communist
propaganda should do its utmost
to expose and destroy hostile
ideologies." 1t listed bourgeois
nationalism, social democratism
MasarykiSm and religion" as
the most dangerous and most
apparent hostile ideologies" in
Czechoslovakia.
Superstition, Prejudice" Cited.
The paper added that to edu-
cate Czechs in the scientific
spirit required IAN intensified
struggle against religious super
stition and prejudice"
In East Germany, where the
Soviet Zone regime and the
Evangelical Church made peace
last June, number of disturb
ing incidents have occurred that
hint at a renewal of religious
persecution.
Evangelical Church officials
charged in Berlin that East Ger
man Communist authorities
were obstructing the building of
churches and parish halls.
The churchmen said that in
Potsdam a parish was refused a
license on the ground that the
City had enough churches"
The officials added that OBJ
Structive action was particularly
strong in newly created workers
settlements. They cited case in
which the church tried to OBJ
tain building site at Stalin-
Stadt.
Soviet Zone authorities in
formed the church that the
planning work for Stalinstadt
had been completed and that
building space for a church
was not provided for in the
plans"
Request Is Turned Down.
A request for permission to
hold occasional religious services
in the new city's cultural hail.
also was turned down.
In another kind of anti-relig-
1ouS activity. the Central Com
mittee of the (Communist) Free
German Youth organization has
been sponsoring the distribution
of a booklet which says that
Communism and religion are ''as
irreconcilable as freedom and
slavery. truth and lies, light and
darkness"
Published in Moscow and later
translated into German, the 80
page pamphlet calls religion "an
theology aimed toward justifying
and perpetuating" slavery and
exploitation of the working
classes.
DR.. Kurt Scharf, a leader of
the Evangelical Union Church
formerly the Old Prussian
Union Church,, listed several
reasons for church uneasiness:
Attacks against the Christian
faith and against Junge Ge-
meinde. Evangelical youth move
ment. again have increased.
Pastors Not Yet Released.
Seven pastors arrested during
the anti-church campaign in
East Germany early this year
have not yet been released.

high schools.

schools near Berlin were dis

Face On TV
Screen Upsets
.N.Y.FamiIy
BY RAY KoHN

BLUE POINT, N. Y. B-Early
in the century It was ''the face
On the barnoom floor" But that
was . fable
The face on their television
screen, the Tkavers family says,
is not fable, and they wish il
would 60 away. II doesn't, though,
even when the ~ set Is turned
Of. Here's their story:
The thre pre-schooI-age
Travers' children first saw the
faee-a woman with a fixed stare.
The youngsters lined up in front
Of the screen for q favorite morn
ing program. They got the show,
but 6-year-old Caroline ran to her
mother, crying:
1--WE can't see it. A face is in
the way"
Mrs. Jerry Trayers indulgently
investigated. One look and she
turned pale. There was the face,
staring out OF the 17-inch screen
even as the telecast went on.
The children got scared. They
started to whimper. Mrs. Travers.
q little nervous herself, turned off
the set. The face remained. She
then placed the screen side of the
set to the wall.
When her husband, an aircraft
company employe, returned home
from work, they swung the set
around. The face was still there
Radio and ~ experts were con-
suited. One export said, ''It can't
happen"
Network officials, given q de-
scription Of the woman, could not
identity her.
Ray Clurman, chief engineer at
the Telechrone color teleyision
laboratory In nearby AmityviIle,
had an explanation.
The face was probably an image
from : previous program, Clurman
said, and became engraved on the
picture tube as . result Of faulty
equipment.
TO erase the face, Clurman said,
would require . new tube and a
complete overhaul.
The Travers took another look
at the screen yesterday. The face
was still there. They turned the
screen-side back to the wall.
