BUENOS AIRES, Argentina,

Catholics knelt amid wreckage
before improvised altars yes
terday to pray for victims OF
Argentina's brief but bloddy re-
volt.
For the second Sunday since
the June 16 attempt to over
throw President Juan Peron's
government, police furnished pro-
lection for thousands thronging
the capitals churches.
Services were held for the first
time in four churches wrecked
and looted by mobs during the
night after the attack on Pc

Police reported they had ar

the dead. priests condemned the
mob action against the religious
buildings.

dral, which escaped major dam

which the fighting ragged; the
Episcopal Palace next to the
cathedral. which was Quilted by
fire. and a burned-out church
from which f1remen are still
pumping water that had ac-
cumulated in the crypt.
The government said all three
buildings would be turned back
to church control this week.
The government has softened
its public attitude toward the
church considerably from the
severe campaign it was waglng
in the months before the revolt.
Both the pro-Peron press and
the government have ceased
their anti-church declarations,
There has been no indication,
however. that Gen. Peron might
abandon his plan to have con-
stituent assembly elected before
the end of this year to END
Catholicism's favored status as
the state church.
The Foreign Ministry report
edly has started talks With the
Papal Nuncio here, Msgr. Mario
Zanin, to arrange a working
agreement between the govern
ment and the church.

You can new read the story OF
Jesus and His apostles and see
actual scenes of the places where
they were, the roads they ira

The American Bible Society
today published a unique New
Testament which uses the treas
lures of the worlds museums and
the latest archaeological findings
to help tell the gospel drama.
"Never before has such a COM

scenes and objects while reading
about them, people can get more

In compiling the material the
society enlisted help of the
Louvre in Paris, the School of
Classical Studies in Athens, the
American Academy in Rome. the
School Of Oriental Research in
Jerusale and mueums
throughout America.
To get some photographs re-
quired lengthy negotiations. For
instance, it took permission of
the British and Greek Air Min
istries and the United States
Civil Aeronautics Board to get
an aerial photo of the volcanic
isle where st. John wrote the
Book of Revelation.
A special team, German His
torian DR.. F. K. Doerner and
American Archeologist Theresa
Goel, was sent on a mission to
trace the steps of Jesus and his
apostles and photograph the
places and mementos along the
way.
