Dispute Over Pact
Harms Germany,
.Adenauer Asserts

BONN, Germany-(NC(-The ac-
ton of the State Of Lower Saxony
in challenging the Validity of the
Concordat with the Holy See places
the reputation of the Federal Ger
man Republic in serious jeopardy
abroad, Chancellor Konrad Alden
auer has declared.
The head of the Bonn govern
ment emphasized that the federal
government holds the 1888 Con-
cordat with the Holy See as still
valid. He declared it just as bind
ing as treaties between the federal
republic and other powers.
The question of whether the
Concordat is still valid is now be-
fore the German Supreme Consti-
tutional Court.
The Concordat calls for mainten-
ance of the traditional system of
separate Protestant and Catholic
schools in Germany. The socialist
controlled government of Lower
Saxony has violated this provision
by passing legislation calling for
a unified" school system.

Despite efforts to separate the
priests from the hierarchy, the
Reds have not been able to launch
an effective patriotic priests
movement, the Sisters declared.
They said that when Father Dom
inic Thu was told by the Reds that
he was to serve as acting Bishop
of Bui-Chu, he refused, saying that
they had no authority to make
such an appointment.

Agreement.
While temporarily free from per-
secution, the people in the north
are faced with a threat of famine
that is growing worse day by day.
Many have already died of Starva-
ton.
These developments were report
ed here by three Sisters of the
Holy Rosary from the Bui-Chu vi
cariate Apostolic in North Wet
nam who arrived in Saigon earlier
this month.
The famine, the nuns said, is not
caused by an overall lack of food
in the north, but by communist
acquisitions of rice for the use of
their troops. The Reds are seizing
from the people, they reported.
more than twice the amount of rice
they have grown this year.
For example, fhe Sisters moi.
ed, their convent in Bui-Chu
grew $500 Iifers of rice this
year and had to give the Reds
$500 Iifers.
The price of rice has risen
sharply, they stated, and now costs
five times more than in the south.
Fortunately, they added, there has
been a good harvest in other crops,
such as potatoes and vegetables.
To counteract the effects of the
famine, they said, the Reds have
attempted to place severe restric-
tions on the eating habits of the
people. Every day at noon, they
pointed out, the authorities go in
to the houses to see what families
are eating. It is forbidden to eat
rice unless it is mixed with some
other type of food. 1t is also for
hidden to eat fish and eggs, they
added.
AT present, the Sisters declared,
the communists have relaxed their
campaign of persecution against
the Church. Catholics, they report
ed, are free to hear Mass and to at
tend other services organized by
the approximately 80 priests re-
naming in North Vietnam. Red

In any event, the Objectionable

OF course all Hollywood adver-

INK SPOTS SPLIT
ON ROCK OF ENVY

PHILADELPHIA Billy
Kenny, former leader of the
internationally known Ink
Spots quartet, has broken ten
years of silence and penned
a sensational article for April
COLOR Magazine, entitled
How the Ink Spots Blew a
Million Dollar Career"
Kenny tells how he quit the
fabulous Ink Spots after Is
stormy years filled with jeal-
ousy and court battles He
says trouble began with 81
grew In popularity and began
to stand out as a feature
attraction of the group -
something none of us could
prevent, since my individual
style of delivering the lyrics
to each song seemed to be
what the public wanted Fans
began sWarming about me for
autographs, and people started
saying Bill Kenny and Ink
Spots in teh same berath.
This, of course, showed my
colleagues into the back
ground"
Jealous wives of some of the
members of the Ink Spots
came in for their share of
pickering and tending One
wife would think that her
husband should be recognized
more than some other mem
Der, Another was jealous be-
cause one guys wife was wear
ing a white mink coat, or a
diamond ring or bracelet.
"They even resented the fact
that l owned a 81 carat dia-
mond ring which l bought
with my own money"
Pulling no punches on the
controversial subject, Kenny
charges that "the name Ink
Spots had become too great,
and the bigness of the name
was primarily the cause Of
the big upset Of the group.
In other words, the mentality
of the group was too low. The
Ink Spots had almost over
night become a million dollar
business and the individual
members didn't have the intel
ligence to keep up with that
growth and prosperity"
The tall, g. o., 1870 pound
singer, who has packed houses
from the Paramount and La
tin Quarter on Broadway, to
the Thunderbird in Las Vegas
and the Million Dollar Theatre
in Los Angeles, is now holding
his own as a single attraction.

has been a big hit at Pitts

Apollo Theatre and Chubby's
swanky night spot in Camden,
