LONDON - NC) - The

partments of the C a t h o Ii C
University of Lublin - the
only pontifically-erected in
stitution of higher learning
behind the Iron Curtain still
operating-have been order
ed abolished, according to in

Only last year, the theology de-
partments of two other universe
ties in communist Poland-those
of Warsaw and Cracow-suffer-
ed a similar fate.
The Catholic University Of
Lublir now has only fwo de-
partmenss, those OF philosophy
and hvmanities. This is in di-
rect violation Of Article II OF
the agreement signed between
The Polish hierarchy and the
Warsaw regime In April, 1850.
The article stipulated that the
university was 10 continue IFS

existing.
During the 1882 academic
year, the Lublin University had
five departments: theology, can
on law, law, humanities and
Christian philosophy. The follow
ing year the law department was
abolished. Later the department
of Christian philosophy was re-
named the philosophy depart
ment, with the proviso that ma
terialistic philosophy would also
be taught. Now the university
has been stripped of its most i'm.
portant departments, theology
and canon law.
simultaneously with the grad
ual abolition of the different de-
partmentS, the number of stu
dents has also been reduced
through various pressures.

II is not those who have the
greatest material blessings that
are the best friends of the mis-

it JOY not only to believe in
our Faith, but also to make sac

the creed; it is better to kiss
the cross after reciting the
creed Will you be not just a

Monhour Output
 On Farms Increases

The U. s. Bureau of Labor Sta tistics reports that output per man hour on the nations farms has risen three times as fast in the past 15 years as in industry gen. orally.
 This output per manhour stood at 80 on the labor bureaus index in 1889 and is now about ITO.
 The rise has been due chiefly to industry's development of farm machinery and fertilizers, with improved farm practices playing an important part. The machines, fertilizers, and improved farm practices enable the farmer to raise more food with less work.
 The machinery also has in creased food supplies for humans by supplanting 25,OOO,00O work horses and mules formerly used on farms. The land once used to raise feed for these animals is now used either to raise food or as pasture land for cattle and sheep.
 The drift of some 2,8OO,O 900 farm workers to factory jobs has inten- sified the urge to mechanize farms. The result of all these factors has been that the country is now able to furnish an improved standard of diet for it's growing population.
