France Backs
Prelate's Plea
For Leper Aid

PARIS-{NC)- Unanimous sup
port was given by the French Ma
tional Assembly to a proposal by
a priest member for world char
ter of human rights for victims
Of Hansen's disease deprosy).
The Chamber adopted resolu-
ton advocated by Able Gau, of
the Popular Republican Movement,
calling upon the government to
submit to the United Nations at its
next assembly an appeal for the
abolition of all prison-type insti-
tutions for leprosy patients and
the education Of the public so that
the millions of victims of Hansen's
disease may be treated more hu-
namely and justly.
It was one of those rare occa-
sions when members of all par
ties in the French Chamber, in
Guiding the communists. found
themselves in complete agreement.
The appeal on behalf of the lep-
rosy victims was written and first
published in 1852 by Raoul Foil
ereau, prominent Catholic attor-
ney, who is the founder and pres
ident of the Order of Charity. This
is a Catholic organization which
organizes appeals in France and
French overseas territories for
charitable causes.

BUICHU, Wet Nam, Indo-China
-(NC) Communicated Wet
Mini raiders profaned the parish
church in an attack on Thuc-Hos,
a Catholic village six miles from
here.
They opened the tabernacle,
spilled out the Hosts, and ate some
of them in irony. The rest of the
Hosts they threw on the floor,
trampling them under foot and
shouting: "There is your Cod"
Two priests were killed in the
attack, which was carried out
with heavy sheIIfire. The Wet
Mini refused the faithful per-
mission TO render one of the
slain priests burial homage.
This rebel" they said, who is
he to deserve such homage of re
spect? He is to be buried in a
common grave"
The steeple, the church, and part
of the rectory were badly damaged
in the attack.
In another Wet Mimi outrage, a
statue of the Blessed Virgin and
Child was mutilated in the parish
of Ha LIE, in the Apostolic Vicari-
ate of Thai-Binh.
Meanwhile, Bishop Pierre IA.
Pham-ngoc-chi, Vicar Apostolic
of Buichu, reported from Hanoi
that the superior of the Buichv
seminary at QUon Fhuong Ha

op said.
Bishop Pham-ngoc-Chi evacuated

Catholic Sailors
Build Own Chapel
In Minneapolis

MINNEAPOLIS - CNC) - Cath
olic personnel at the Naval Air
Station here now have a chapel of
their own-the result of weeks of
spare-time work.
Sunday Mass was formerly offer
ed in the station movie hall, which
was also used for Protestant serv-
ices at different times. When it was
decided that both Catholic and
Protestant services would have to
be held at the same time to avoid
conflicting with the reServistS'
training schedules, Catholic sailors
pitched in and converted a barren
storage space in the theater's base
ment into a chapel.
Using funds and materials donat-
ed by the bases welfare depart
ment and by individuals and
churches in the twin city area, the
men put on a fresh coat of paint,
hung draperies, and erected an
altar and statues, dedicating the
chapel to Our Lady Star of the
Sea.

Faith Called Great
Treasure Spain
Gave Philippines

BARCELONA, Spain - NC) -
The Catholic Faith, "the most pre-
ciouS treasure which Spain handed
down to us" is 'one of our firmest
bulwarks against communism" Ra-
mon Magsaysay, President of the
Philippines, said in an interview
published here in the magazine
Momento.
President Magsaysay said in his
interview that his government en-
deavors to "give land to the land
less and work to the voorhees,"
and thus give an effective answer
to spurious communist promises of
better life.

had placed the party in "the most
serious situation since it was estab-
Ished in 1916" The party objected
especially TO one section of the pas
toral which denounced the "pure
materialism" of most socialists.
In comment on the Labor par
fy's statement, Trouw declared
that "the hierarchy speaks
frankly for the Christian strUe-
tvre Of society, and we prot
esfants) fully agree with their
argument" II added: we would
wish that fhs Reformed Church
eS spoke out as strongly and de-
eisiveIy as the Bishops on this
point. The dangers pointed out
by the Catholic Church should
be Is obvious to the Protestant
Churches"
ElSeUier'S WeekbIdd described
the pastoral as IAN uplifting and
refreshing document" !" 1t said the
document "confrontS the nation
with a truth that is too often lost
sight of - the truth that fate and
life of a nation are not determined
by compromises and political alli-
ances, but by deep-rooted convic-
tions."
(The Netherlands government is
coalition of four parties, with
the Catholic Peoples party holding
majority of cabinet posts, and
the Labor party in second place.
These two parties hold the ma
jority of seats also in both cham
bers of parliament)
The Bishops had urged Catho-
lies who are members of the La
Dor party to examine their con-
sciences to see whether or not they
can support group that has, di-
rectly or indirectly, an irreligious
influence in public life. They
charged that by joining that party,
Catholics frustrate efforts to build
up Christian society and weaken
the strength of the Catholic Peo-
ple's party.
Reaffirming that the Labor party
offers no guarantees for a truly
Christian policy, the Bishops de-
clared that Catholics who join ii
share responsibility for its I'M
Christian tendencies. They said
that while the hierarchy does not
attach special sanctions to mem
bership in the party, because of
their desire to remain very re-
served where matters of political
freedom are concerned" they still
''trust that Catholics will under
stand the guidance of their Bish-
ops"
The Labor party statement ex-
pressed pride in the fact that its
members ''have come from all re-
ligions, movements and all kinds
of socialism, atheism and human
ism" 1t said that ''the structure OF
the party has been based upon this
cooperation and that this coopera-
tion has successfully grown, with
the people of Holland becoming
more and more convinced of such
a cooperation"
On this point, the Catholic daily,
De Tijd, reproached the Labor
party with refusing to see the real
meaning of a pastoral nature, the
paper added that it should not give
the socialists a headache, since the
number of Catholic members of
the Labor party is actually only
about 500
