AT this point the Red leaders de-
cided TO disband the monasteries,
the priest said. They freed most
of the priests, except some consid-
cred extremely recalcitrant." The
latter were thrown into prison or
regular concentration camps. How
ever. in freeing the religious, the
regime warned them that they
were being freed as private citi-
zens" and not as religious or
priests.
Meanwhile the regime had is
sued a decree "dissolving" all
monasteries and converts. 1t warn
ed the freed religious that they
could not establish new monaster-
les. The only converts existing in
Hungary today are those of a few

was that the Bishops who had ac.
eepted their services were forced
to remove them from pastoral
work.
Found Work
After this the priests were fore
ed to find jobs to earn their daily
bread. Some became parish organ
lists. Others returned to profeS-
sions, such as engineering, which
they had practiced before ordina-
ton. A few escaped Hungary to
carry on the ministry on free soil.
But the majority became manual
laborers in mines, factories and
other industries, Father 10th re-
lated
There is no evidence of any gen
eral discrimination against them
at work because they are priests,
he stated. But they are not permit
ted to carry on any sort of apostle
late at their place of work. Nor are
they permitted TO say other than
private Masses at their residences.
In they engage in amy priesflY
work they are subject TO prose
euticn, Father 10th noted. He re-
lated that only . few months ago
. Piarisf priest, Father Eugene
Toeroek, was sentenced TO hard
labor in the coal mines for "illes-
ally exercising his prisstlY fvne-
tions."
What about the effect of these
priests on fellow workers? What
about their future? Father 10th
had these answers:
1T is unbelievable that the Chris
tian example of these priests at
and away from work should not
have some effect on those with
whom they come in contact. 1t IS
also inconceivable that the thou
sands of Masses secretly offered
each day by these suffering mem
bers of Gods ministry should not
obtain from God the grace of Hun
gary's eventual delivery from the
communist yoke"
Father 10th himself is looking
forward and planning for the day
of deliverance. He envisions the
formation now OF Catholic re-
construction program" W ic h
would supply the Church in the
Iron Curtain countries with addi-
tional priests, religious books and
funds for churches after their lib
Grafton.
But that is for the future, said
Father 10th. who is now at George
town University here. His immedi-
ate objective is TO organize pray
ers and acts of self-denials among
Christians in the free world for
those behind the Iron Curtain. He
also plans to have this remem-
brance of the people behind the
Iron Curtain made known to them
by whatever means available and
thus provide encouragement for
them.

ed souls in not a few nations"
who suffer severe and terrible
prosecutions" and expressed the
hope that they will be able to re-
member and be inspired by the
thought of these virgins of the ear
ly Church who suffered martyrdom
for their virginity.
Pope Plus took severely to task
those who would modify the train
ing of seminarians and religious
students by having them become
better acquainted with the world,
thus testing their strength and
1 powers of resistance to occasions
/ of sin.
Flight Is Defense
'All the saints OF both sexes" he
declared. always considered flight
and alert vigilance for removing
every occasion of sin as the best
means of winning in this matter. "
Asserting that such theory of for
nation was based on confused
reasoning, the Pope said that al
though Christ sent His Apostles in
to the world. He also said they
are not of this world" and Il do
not pray that thou take them out
of the world, but that thou keep
them from evil"
The Church, therefore, the Pope
said, has in the course of cen.
turies adopted salutary rules for
the guidance and preservation of
the spiritual life of priests as well
as of seminarians and Religious
He asked: What gardener would
expose young exotic plants to un-
seasonable weather just to test
them?"
The Saviour Himself, the Pope
said. has given all men the means
of defending themselves in the
spiritual battles of life-continu.
Gus vigilance, constant prayer, and
the Sacraments of Penance and the
Eucharist.
But TO preserve chastity un'
tainted and to perfect ii, the Pope
declared in conclusion, there is a
means whose marvellous efficacy
is confirmed and repeated by the
experience of centuries-and that
is a solid and burning devotion to
the Mother OF God. In a certain
way all other means combine in
this one. He who profoundly and
sincerely lives in Marian devotion
feels himself surely impelled to
vigilance and prayer. to the tri'
bunal of penance, and to the
Eucharist"
