A young man Of twenty.four
years Of age who was studying for
the priesthood in the Passionists
Order died in 1852 a full-fledged
saint. His name in religion was Ga
briel of our Lady of Sorrows, so
they just put a st. before if, and
that was that. You might suppose
that any chap studying for the
priesthood would die a saint, but
things didn't look too good for our
hero, for he led rather gay youth
before he went to the Passionists,
He was the life of the party, which
can be dangerous. Although he
really didn't shock anyone. he ad-
mitted that he let the world weave
its web. Later on he wrote to his
pals and told them to watch it, Sat
urday is his feast. Observe it.

Ekandem lived as boy in a com
pound with his fathers several
wives and his brothers and sisters
and many half-brothers and half
sisters.
The Bishop recalls that as q
youth he and his brothers often
helped his father prepare the sac
rIfices to the pagan gods.
The Bishops father was
progressive chief who realized
the value OF education and sent
his sons TO the Catholic mission
school in fhe village. II was here
that the future Bishop first be-
came acquainted with Catholic.
ism, took instructions in the
Faith and finally was baptized.
His instructor was Father Paul
Riechy, now Bishop Bieehy of
BraEzavilIe, who served as q CO.
eonseerstor here.
On first being received into the
Church. Bishop Ekandem had no
idea of becoming a priest. THE
fact is. | did not realize an African
could be a priest" he explains.
But one day he heard Of an AZ
rican priest in anotheer diocese.
He went to the pastor of the mis-
sion and asked if he too could be
come priest. He passed an exam
ination and was accepted at a sem
mary in a neighboring diocese.
This decision to become a priest
was made with great difficulty,
Bishop Ekandem recalls. Young
Dominic had been the only mem
Der of the family to graduate from
the mission school and his father
Lad regarded him as the hope of
the family. While at first opposed,
his father, still pagan, finally
consented.
The future Bishops tuition was
paid by a spiritual mother" in
Ireland, who has continued TO help
him and sent him a gift for his
consecration.
Bishop Ekandem's father was re-
ceived into the Catholic Church
in 1916, one year before the Bish-
ops ordination. Other members of
the family have also entered the
Church since.
Bishop Ekandem was the first
native priest of this diocese. He
served as a parish priest and rec
tor of the diocesan junior semin-
ary prior to being named Titulaf
Bishop of Hieropolis and appointed
Auxiliary here.

Chaplain Describes
Religious Devotion
OF Chinese POW's

SEOUL, Korea-Chinese Catho
lie prisoners Of war maintained
constant alteration of the Blessed
Sacrament during daylight hours
in one of their chapels, Father
Thomas Ivo O'Sullivan, O.F.M.,
said here. He was their chaplain
in UN. prison camps for nearly
two years.
About $50 of the 14.700 anti
communist Chinese prisoners re.
Gently liberated were practicing
Catholics, he said. More than half
of these became Catholics in the
U.N. prison compounds.
About 90 per cent of them re-
ceived Holy Communion at least
once month, and 81 per cent re-
ceived weekly, he reported.
They said morning and night
prayers and the rosary in common
every day. On Fridays they chant
ed the Stations of the Cross in the
traditional Chinese Catholic way.
I'm one church, the prisoners ar.
ranged all-day alteration, each
man taking a half-hour."
II took courage for the Catho-
lies to practice their religion as
prisoners of war. Until the end of
April, 1852, they were in COM
pounds with violently anti-Chris-
tian communists. They had no
Chinese-speaking priest until No
vember, 1851.
Even after Red and anti-Red
prisoners were separated, Catho-
lies were not always safe. Some of
the anti-communists were also
hostile to Christianity.

Seatrain Issue Will Be Decided Soon, Says RR. Manager

WASHINGTON, R-Frank E. Kilbaugh, general manager of the Alaska Railroad, said today "the question of whether seatrain op- erations are to be started between the Pacific Northwest and Alas ka's railbelt area should be re- solved within two weeks"
 Kalbaugh said in an interview that pending proposals for inaug- uration of such operatins are the primary reason he is here at this time.
 Three prominent operators" are apparently very much inter ested in the possibility, Kalbaugh said.
 "The Army's Transportation Service has had an independent study made of the feasibility of seatrain service,' Kalbaugh said, ''but the report has not been made public.' He added that it is now under consideration and this is a factor upon which future action

Churchill Warns Against Provoking us. Isolation

BLACKPOOL, England, R- Prime Minister Winston Church ill Saturday warned the western World-including Britain's left wing socialiStS-to avoid haunting the United States into policy of iSolationiSm which he said would condemn all Europe to Russian conquest.
 The 79-year-old statesman, ad- dressing the Conservative Party annual conference, pledged him self to work "While I have life and strength" for a system of peaceful coexistence with the So- viet Union, ending rumors that he intended soon to retire.
 Churchill said the Russians could readily overrun the whole of Europe but for Americas su- perior strength in atom and hy- drogen bombs.
 "That superiority, while it is maintained, will be a decisive de- terrent against a Communist ag- gression," he said.
 The old war leader said the vests decision to free and rearm West Germany to buttress the Atlantic alliance may well be- come a monument and mile stone in our march toward peaceful coexistence" with the Soviet Union.
 Of the United States he said:
 "There is no other case of a nation arriving at the summit of world power, seeking no territor- ial gain, but earnestly resolved to use her strength and wealth in the cause of progress and free dom.
 Had this conception been visi- ble to the American governments 50 years ago we all, themselves included, might have escaped the two fearful world wars which have brought such misery upon our generation :"

 The party leaders got a boost Friday from a statement by Vice President Nixon that Eisenhower likely will add a midwest farm speech to the two talks he now plans before the Nov. balloting.

Search On for Survivors Of Sunken Freighter;
 Seaplane to Try Rescue

NORFOLK, Va, R-Five men and one body from the 48-man crew of the ore freighter Nor mackite had been picked up by the Greek freighter Macedonia, the Coast Guard reported Satur- day.
 Meanwhile, one of the Coast Guard search planes over the area, about 150 miles east-south- east of Cape Henry, Va, reported that survivors are scattered over a wide area, making recovery by the vessels in the vicinity diff cult.
 The pilot reported he was afraid some of the men were going to die and for that reason he asked and received permission to land his seaplane and attempt to recover some of the survivors.
 The Coast Guard 5th District Headquarters at Norfolk, which granted the pilot permission to land, described it as a dangerous operation.
 Eleven seamen, survivors of the capsized freighter Norma ckite, were safely in port today with narrowing tales of two days float ing helplessly in stormy, shark infested waters. Lost in the dis aster were 37 of their shipmates, including the captain.
 The Thursday sinking was ap- parently caused by shifting of the ships iron ore cargo in the gale.
 The vessel capsized so quickly there was no chance to send a distress message and creWmen were unable to get lifeboats into the water. The ship carried no life rafts.
 Said one of the survivors:
 "On the last day we started to think how we could take our lives away the easiest. When you're drinking salt water and taking it into your lungs, it is terrible. Yes terday Saturday, morning the three of us decided to do it. Then we saw Navy carrier and then there were planes. Another hour and we would have been dead"
