religious propaganda campaign IN
itiated throughout the length and
breadth of Russia several months
ago, is proving to be a sore dis
appointment to the Soviet leaders.
There have been indications be-
fore that the new wholesale at
tempts to ram atheistic propagan-
da down the throats OF the Russian
masses had served only to ex-
pose a deep, IN Jerlying resistance
among them to the spirit OF mil
liant materialism
New reports reaching here only
serve to confirm the impression
that the Soviet propagandists are
having a hard time in their battle
against religious superstitions." j."
Kiev Radio recently reported
that 800 anti-religioLs lectures, ac-
companied by films and slides, had
been given to workers in Kiev
Province alone during august and
September.
But there are complaints in
the entire Soviet press, from
Moscow's Prsvds, the official
organ OF the Communist Party
10 the smallest provincial paper,
AGAINST what are called the short
eomines Of the seientifie-sthels-
tic propaganda.
Komsomolskaya pravda, a news
paper for young communists, rails
ed this cry: "A determined fight
mi st be waged in the new school
year against the remnants OF cap
italism in the minds of youth,
against harmful superstitions and
traditions of the old society, and
against all manifestations of bour-
geois ideology."
Only the realization that rellg-
ion still survives in the land of
Lenin and Stain could have
prompted such challenge.
This realization was clearly re-
flected in a report in Sotsialistik
Kazakhstan, official daily publish
ed in strongly Moslem Kakazhstan.

Mass. Climsxing the Marian cere-
monies in the Cathedral, Bishop
Ready placed upon an enthronea
statue of Our Lady crown of ros-
es symbolic of her Queenship of
Peace.
Monsignor WOLF closing words
were devoted to Mary under the
title of Queen of Peace. Primarily,
the Catholic world turns to her
with that blessed name on its lips
to beseech her aid in averting war
among nations. But this does not
exhaust the meaning Of peace in
the petition" Monsignor WOLF said.
"Most of you have lived through
a time of war, and you know from
bitter experience what night
mare of anxiety and mental tor
ment war can be. But again ask
your experience whether war is the
worst of torments you ever knew,
is war always the thing most de-
structive of your interior peace?"
Monsignor WOLF queried.
''Is not the greatest enemy of
peace the eVer-presenf, gnawing
round of everyday worries that
are an unavoidable part of every
human life, but an especially
prominent part of family life
matters which often perhaps are
trivial in and by themselves, but
not trivial because of their con-
slant presence, their wearYins
habit OF following one upon an
other, scarcely is one gone when
another comes TO take its
place? -.
Whatever be our difficulties,
Mary understands because she
either faced them herself, OF she
shared them with others Mary
is always Queen of Peace, and she
is that not only because she under
stands the trials we face but be-
cause she also shows us the way
of peace" he concluded.

I'm tired of being afraid of

Senator Styles Bridges of New
Hampshire, in a speech at St
Anselm College here.
AS principal speaker at the
formal opening of st. Anselm's S
Civil Defense course. Senator
Bridges demanded an end to ap-
peasement and compromise on
fundamental principles. He said
the United States should return to
the days of the Don't Tread on
Me" rattlesnake flag so that the
communists will not only be afraid
to attack, but will be afraid to
take any action which may pos
sibly call for strong measures on
our part.
Branding the threat OF inter
national communism as "the
most difficult problem of our
times" the Senator pointed out
that in Just 81 years the Reds
have built their forces from q
mere 100000 persons to a point
where they now control more
than q third of the worlds pop.

"As an American" Senator

nine years. The Korean war, the
arrest and detention of William
Otis, Robert Vogeler and Angus
Ward, the betrayal of China, the
extortion of the Berlin airlift, the
YugoSlaVia plane incident. the
numerous Russian plane incidents
and the payment of $120,000 ran

WLW-C To Air
Series Written
By Fir. Nagle

"Uncle George and Uncle
Malachy," couple of fayorite
characters for years in the
field of religious radio broad
casts, created by Father Ur-
ban Nagle, O.P., chaplain of
st. Mary of the Springs Col
lege. will come to life over
WLW-C, Sunday morning.
Father Nagle, former producer
and director of the Blsckfriars
Theater in New York, says the
characters are a composite of var
ious people he remembers from
his boyhood in Providence, RI. The
two form a perpetual debating So
ciety, arguing everything from
baseball to religion.
Starting Oct. II through Nov Z,
Father Nagle's fictitious uncles
will appear on The Catholic Hour
on Television, produced by the
National Council of Catholic men
and carried on WLW-C from 900
$50 a. m. The telecasts will pre-
sent Jack Hartley as Uncle George
and Alan MacAteer as Uncle Nal
achy in the series written by Fa-
ther Nagle.
Father Nagle has said of his fie-
titious uncles: Il thought they were
giants. When | got older and met
more people, I know they we're
characters. And when ! stand on
tn. old battle-ground these days,
begin to think they were titans.

it does affect the personality so
deeply it can only be allowed if
the due conditions are observed"
Father Mccall cites the opinions
of a number OF other theologians
in support Of his own position. He
quotes Father Gerald Kelly, ST..
as saying that psychosurgery may
be used for the treatment of other
wise incurable pain as well as for
the treatment of serious mental

There had been other newspaper
articles previously denouncing
workers for "neglecting" their du-
ties to take part in services of the
Russian Orthodox Church.
It is noteworthy that these and
thousands of other articles do not
mention clergymen of any denom-
ination. 1t is the laity-"the be-
lieversH-who are being attacked
because it is they, the common
people of the Soviet Union, who
practice their religion with more
fervor than ever before.
The Soviet leaders are partie-

ices with their elders. and many

this largely on lack of zeal on

Not long ago men in the Krem-

5 Conditions
Father Mccall lists five condi-
tions to be fulfilled before psyche
surgery can be judged morally per-
missible.
Due permission is necessary, he
says. That is, the patient must con-
sent to the operation if he is capa-
BILE of doing so or the consent of
those Immediately responsible for
him must be obtained.
An expert surgeon is required
he states, because Of the extreme
delicacy of such operations.
Psychosurgery may be used
only as a last resort. he declares,
after other less radical types of
treatment have been tried and
found TO fail.
1t may be used only in cases
where the patient is likely to ben
eft from it. he continues. He
gives as an example the case of a
hopelessly insane person who,
since he starts with such a handi-
cap, can only stand to gain.
There must. he concludes, be
proper post-operatiye care. The
operations curtailment of the pa
TENTS emotional powers, he says,
does not make him incapable of a
human act or of recognizing re-
sponsibility, but it does mean that
the patient needs a long period Of
post-operative care and re-educa-
ton.
Father Mccall notes that if
psychosurgery took away all will
power as some people believe. then
there could be no question of its
being allowed. But. he writes. the

"The new faith of the Marxist-
feminist materialism," the study
said, has forced the Polish Cath
olic to deepen his own religion. Un-
der persecution, as always, the
Church gains in depth what it los
es in externals"
After detailing the ways the com
muniSt regime in Poland has weak
ened the powers of the Church,
limiting its influence and discred-
iing its members the report
comments.
But all the communists can
touch are the externsI srsppinss,
the outward show OF things.
What fhe Church ..ss lost in of

The complete eradication of re-
iigion Is long-range objective of
the communist master plan" the
report said. The hesitation of the
Polish communist regime to begin
Immediately with q direct frontal
attack on religion is the best proof
Of the fullness of the measure of
Polish piety"
But even during this early per-
iod when the communist leaders
tried to wrap themselves in the
cloak of sanctity the State was
celebrating policy which when
finally revealed was far more sub
tie and effective than the use of
crude force. The regimes plan was
to push the Church hierarchy out
of the national life. to isolate if by
making it somehow 'non-Polish'
and Foreign"
The report went on to say that
the Reds attempt to oppose the
clergy to the Bishops and to detach
the clergy from the Holy See and
the unity Of the Church. ITO this
end all governmental information
sources pour out continual stream
of vituperation against the Pspal

more brutally direct measures.
