proved safey record is even bet
ter than it appears, because
traffic volume mounts yearly
while deaths decline.
The officer denied that the
radar traps have Disseminated
against out-of-State drivers. The
charge arose in May when a
chauffeur for Senator Bender,
Republican of Ohio, was caught
doing 66 in a 55-mile-an-hour
zone in Woodbridge, Va, on
May IS.
OF the 81 violators nabbed that
day, 81 drove out of-State trucks,
16 out-of-State cars, 2 Virginia
registered trucks and IL Vir-
ginia-registered cars.
1t. Walton said that an over
Iwhelming majority of the big
Itrailer-trucks which roar up and
down Route l are owned by out
-of-state firms and registered
in other states. Similarly, the
route is heavily used by travel
Iers on the New England to :
Florida run.
His view was somewhat con-
firmed in a random five-minute
check of Shirley highway traffic.
In the period, out-of-state cars
passing by a check point out
numbered Virginia cars, 22-15.
Restrictions on Use
Virginia lawmakers who legal
lied radar in 1854 surrounded
its use with host of restric-
tionS.
Radar evidence can be accept
ed in court only if the arresting
officer was in uniform or showed
his badge at the time Of arrest.
| The arresting officer must
have observed a recording of
speed or received a radio mes
sage from the officer who did,
Radar signs must be posted
at every entrance to the State
and at exits from every COM
munity of $500 or more poula-
ton.
One further restriction the
troopers place on themselves

limits. 1t points out that lust
because a towns limits extend
far out into open country there
is little reason to erect 25-mile
speed limit sign at the towns
border" Radar could be adapt
ed to do the research work on a
scientific redetermination" of
speed limits, the AAA says.
On the fringes Of towns lie
rich opportunities for exploiting
radar as the modern version of
the motorcycle-cop -behind-the-
bush. In the lower speed zones

Signs Warn Autoists
In Staunton, Va, the Auto
mobile Club of Virginia posted
its own signs, warning travellers
of rigid" enforcement of speed
laws. The action was taken
after traffic arrests in Staunton
go in 1953-jumped to 947 in
1854 with the use of radar.
Motorists complain about ra-
dar, but no serious campaign has
developed anywhere to stop its
use. The FEC and the AAA bear
the brunt Of the grievances.
But when they're caught, mo-
Itorists comply with the findings.
Paul Burke, head Of the Mary
land Safety Commission. said
radar has proved a boon in elm
mating the abuse which was
heaped upon arresting officers In
speeding cases.
Whatever its irritation, radar
appears to be attracting more
affection by those who find ii
handy.
At the last meeting Of the En-
forcement Committee of the
Metropolitan Area Traffic Coun-
Gil, a survey report stated:

Pope Admonishes
ScOuters to Be
Artisans of Peace

NIAGARA -oN-THE-LAKE, Can
ada - (NC) - Catholic scouts
must be artisans of peace" they
were told by His Holiness Pope Pi-
us XII on the eve of the 9th World
Jamboree of Scouts.
This admonition was contained
in letter sent by the Holy Father
to Msgr. Maurice Patry, chaplain
general of Catholic Scouts. The
Pontiff declared:
During these days of brotherly
life when cordial exchanges will
be numerous and sincere friend
ships made, Our sons will remem-
Der that as faithful disciples of the
Master of Beatitudes they must be
among their comrades artisans of
peace" accessible to all, welcom-
ing and understanding to persons
regardless of differences of culture
or race. They will be careful to
be witnesses of untarnished ioy
and courageous purity, based on
sacrifice and forgetfulness of self.
Avoiding the temptation of too
easy life, they will be the first
to follow the Gospel paths of de
tachment and simplicity of life
and, in a frequently hard and ego
tistical world, they will furnish
proof of that true moral strength
which reveals itself in gentleness
and patient meekness towards all
the miseries of mind and body.

Christians, Reds
Cannot Co-Exist.
Bishop Declares

NEW Y0RK-NC) - The Most
Rev. Cuthbert M. O'Gara, C.P., ex-
lied Bishop of Yuanling, China, de.
clared here that it is impossible
for the Christian world to coexist
with communism.
The prelate, who was a prisoner
of the Chinese Reds for two years
before he was expelled from the
country declared that coexistence
with communism would weaken
the free worlds resistance to athe.
istic ideologies and lead to greater
infiltration by the communists.
The Bishop recounted some of his
experiences while a prisoner of the
communists and said that commun
ist strength results from a strong
discipline and an exact hierarchial
order.
The Bishop warned that if cul
lures as old as the Hungarian and
the Chinese could succumb to com
munism, the comparatively new
American culture can also fall.

Claims by Tito
Are Refuted by
Vatican Radio

VATICAN CITY - (NC) -
Vatican Radio has taken SHARP
issue with an assertion made
by Marshall Tito to 20 visiting
American students that there
is freedom of religion in Yugo
Slavia.
The conversation, to which Vati
can Radio took such strong excep
ton, took place July rs and was
reported in Zagreb's VjeSnik
August 4.
"Those who do not know the
position of the Church in Yugo
slavia may we'll conceive the idea
that communism is merely indif
ferent toward religion rather than
that it persecutes it," the Vatican
broadcast said. ''Tito has the au
dacity to declare that in Yugo
slavia the practice of religion is
free, but he does not say that
there are members of certain pro,
fessions in Yugoslavia - officers,
soldiers, civil servants, teachers
who would lose their jobs at once
if they were to enter church"

able and real property" the
broadcast continued, "it gives
few crumbs, and then only TO
create confusion among i'll.
informed people, and to create
the impression that communists
are after all not SO evil as some
people like to paint Them"
In another development, Os'
serUntore Romano, Vatican City
daily, declared that statements tc
western correspondents by Red Po
lands Premier Joseph Cyrankie
wicz that there is freedom of con
science" in Poland are empty
phrases borrowed from secularis
tic and liberalistic jargon."
In a front page editorial the
newspaper criticized the friendly
reports sent here by Italian cor
respondents attending the Warsaw
Youth Festival. 1t said that such
reports are apt to cause confusion
at a time "when more than ever
it is necessary to temper sentiment
or sentimentalism with cold
reason"
The truth is, OSSerrdtore Ro'
ndno said, that the Polish regime
is guided by Marxist science, which
it imposes upon youth and spread;
through party and official propa
ganda.
At the same time, N added,
Oppressed Catholicism sees its
schools closed one by one; sees
the suppression of religious
teaching, the trsmplins Of fhs

Church, attempts 10 direct the
