life eternal.
Attlee, apparently, doesn't. He
did not, | am fairly certain, insult
our noble dead Intentionally, as
the Reds do. He did it blindly and
blunderingly.
He did it stupidity because he
does not know enough about Chris
tianity to see through the nonsense
that the Chinese Reds fed him.
This sort of thing has been go
ing on for decades. Attlee is only
a current example. The secularists
have been selling the gates of
Christendom right along - and
thinking, the whole time, that they
were serving the cause of the west
ern world.
The statesmen who truckled to
Hitler while Jews and Christendom
died thought they we're serving the
western world.
Eleanor Roosevelt to this day has
no conception Of the wounds she
inflicted upon US, and upon our
civilization, when she came back
from Yugoslavia excIaiming over
the "youth" and Charm" of the
dictator.
Eleanor probably thought she
was serving America. And An
thony Eden deceived himself that
he was serving England when, af-
ter his divorce and remarrisge, he
spent his second honeymoon as Til
to's guest.
Doubtless AttIee also thought he
was serving us when he too visited
Yugoslavia and came back with
the preposterouS assertion that the
country enjoyed complete "free-
dom of religion"
4 And those who justified the
Communist assault on Spain-the
first beginning of the open Soviet
aggression against the western
world-did so partly because of ig-
norance, and partly because deep
inside them they just can't stom-
ach Catholics.
II is this secularist bigotry against
religion, and above all against the
Catholic faith, that is at the roots of
the Grass ignorance of these peo-
pie. They do not want to know
what Christianity is all about.
They want to dislike it.
But it is not the business of poll
ticians and statesmen to be ignor-
ant of the most cherished beliefs
of the people. It is their business
to know them.
II is their business also to know
the facts of the world they pretend
to represent. Had Attlee bothered
to get the facts, he would have
known that native Chinese bishops
and priests have suffered at least
as much in Red China as have mis-
sionaries from other countries.
And he would not have insulted
our martyrs.

It does seem to me, though, that
Attlee might have refrained from
adding insult to injury in the state
ments he made after his return
from his junket to Moscow and
Peking.
Atlee said he got the "impres-
sion" that Christian missionaries
are prosecuted in China not be-
cause they are Christians, but be-
cause they are foreigners.
That is to say, men like our
American Bishop Ford, who died
of mistreatment in Red Chinese
prison, are not martyrs, but mere
ly dead foreign devils. That is the
Communist line; and Attlee par
rots it.
Thus Attlee not only defends the
killers, but attempts to snatch
from their victims the eternal
crowns of glory for which they suf-
fered and died.
This is the final and deadliest
insult. AttIee is not satisfied with
justifying the destruction of the
mortal lives of the missionaries; he
denies their claim to immortal
glory also.
But l would not have it thought
that I am supposing that Attlee
knew what he was saying. He
didn't.
That is precisely the tragic point
of the Attlees of our time-the Sec
ularists. They do not know. And
they do not want 10 know.
They live in Christendom and
enjoy some of the noble fruits of
Christianity ~ freedom and. re-
spect for human dignity and all
that-but they have not the faint
est notion what Christianity is all
about.
They have less understanding of
the supernatural than the pagans.
They are less informed about
Christian beliefs than the atheists.
The Communists know what they
are doing when they allege that
the martyrs are not martyrs. They
have at least some idea of what we
mean when we talk about God and

Catholics Continue
Exodus From Red
Zone OF Vietminh

HAIPHONG, North Vietnam -
NC) - Between eight and ten
thousand Catholic villagers have
reached this French-held port city
during the past seven days after
risking their lives in escaping by
sea from the Vietminh (commun-
ist zone.
They put out to sea mostly dur
ing the hours of darkness in un-
seaworthy junks and RATS. About
30 of these small craft have arriv-
ed in Haiphong, usually flying the
papal flag. 1t took them four days
and nights to make the voyage,
most of the time on the open sea
out of sight of the coast.
About 1000 Catholic refugees
arrived here in French Navy ships
within two days.

Now do you understand why
we ask you to make sacrifices
for the missions? Because we
too have to feel the pain of CIV
ing to be one with those who
feel the pain of receiving perse-
cution. Our Divine Lord is cruci-
fled again. The least we can do
is to cruelty a little selfishness
to be one with Him. Deny your
self a luxury, give up the equiv
alent of a package of cigarettes,
a movie, an extra meal, old gold,
or even cut into your capital.
Be good to yourself in Gods way
by receiving His Blessing and an
answer to your prayers through
self-denial.

Alaska, Barometer
For Trends in U. s.,
Goes 10 Polls Today
sy ne As.esisisd Prsss

JUNEAU. Alaska. Oct. H.
Alaskans are voting today in an
election that Is Of national In
terest for its possible weather
vane indications Of political
trends.
"As Alaska goes, so goes the
Nation" has been an increasingly
accurate political adage from
the north country in recent years.
The territory always has done
its voting early. (It used to
take q long time for the votes
to come in by dog team or boat
and then the outlying legislators
needed extra time to travel to
the capital.)
Political observers have noted
increasingly in recent years that
the trend of voting in Alaska,
which has drawn its population
from all parts Of the Nation,
has been a barometer of what
has followed in the national elec-
tionS. The Alaska trend some
times has been toward a near
sweep Of the Legislature by one
party or the other: sometimes
a gain by one party or the
other without a switch of con-
troll. In either event, the later
trend in national voting for
Congress has been surprisingly
close to the same pattern.
Significant indications of
Evening star., 1954-10-12

trends are not expected until
tomorrow morning. Tnere are
no voting machines In the ter
ritory. The count is slow In the
big city precincts and the re-
turns from most of the widely
scattered outlying precincts or
the vast territory don't start
coming in. until the next day.
Time zones also are q factor.
Most Of the territory .is, In .
time zone two hours behind Pa
cific Standard Time. That
means when the polls close at
8 pm. in Anchorage and Fair
banks it already is / am. on
the Atlantic Coast.
Voters will be choosing q Del
egate to Congress, q territorial
labor commissioner, q treasurer,
a new House Of Representatives
and nine members OF the 16-seat
Senate.
Democrat Favored.
The opponents for the non
voting seat In Congress are z.
L. (Bob) Bartlett, the incum-
bent Democrat, and Mrs. Bar
bara Dimock. a Republican leg
islator. Mr.. Bartlett is q heavy
favorite to win q sixth two-year
term.
Democrats have held the Con.
gress seat continuously since
1882, with the margin of vic
tory varying along with the po-
litical trend for the Legislature.
Prominent issues in the Barb
lett-Dimock contest have been
over which party has done the
most for the statehood cause
and which has done best by
Alaska in ALLEGATION of Federal
funds.

a Governor this year. The Re-
publican candidate is Alvin
Stockton, elected a member of
the State Legislature in 1850 and
was reelected in 1852. He was
speaker of the House during the
1853 session. Against him, the
Democrats have nominated John
Simms, jr., a 37-year-old attor-
ney who also has been a mem
ber of the Legislature and a
one-time speaker of the House.
The Republican argument is:
"Mechem cleaned up the State
House-do you want to put the
old gang back in poWer?"
The Republicans are relying,
as they did in 1862. on the vote

tie of 500 codeine tablets.
From 4 pm. until Carper and
Mr.. Andrew left the hotel with
he dope, Mr.. Scott said, Carper
was with him all the time. He
did not mention the policeman
making a phone call.
At the outset Of the trial, Rob-
erts, principal witness against
the two policemen, admitted he
attempted to bribe Mr.. Scott into
letting him have a key to the
room to get the narcotics.
When he failed, he testified,
he received a call from Carper
at 3 pm. telling him not to re-
turn to the hotel to get the
cocaine because q trap had
been set"
Mr.. Scott was emphatic in his
testimony that he had not in
formed Carper as to why he

Eisenhower's choice of a success
Sor to Justice jackson.
Gen. Eisenhower, repeatedly

Florida disclosed he had wired
the President urging the selec-
ton Of "some outstanding jurist

Of segregation" Gov. Johns
said he had sent kilograms to

which their prior slavery
