Mother Can't Accept Inuitation
To Visit Red Held Priest-SOn
(N. C. w. G. NEWS SERYICEl

The mother of a priest who
is being held prisoner by the
Chinese communists has been
invited to visit her son, but
will be unable to do so.
The invitation came to Mrs.
Addie Rigney, II, in Chicago,
from the National Red Cross
of. China. Her son, Father Harold
w. Rigney, S.vD., 54, has begun
his fifth year as prisoner of the
Chinese Reds and is in a Peiping
Jail.
Mrs. Rigney some weeks ago
wrote to Red China's Premier
Chou En-Lai, asking for the re-
lease of her son. The Premier did
not reply, but Mrs. Rigney re-
ceived a letter from the National
Red Cross of China, which said;
I'VE are deeply in sympathy with
you for the difficult situation in
which you and your family are
involved. II you wish to come to
Peiping to see your son, we would
make the necessary arrangements
for you"

communion with the multicreeded
Church of South India and their
announcement of plans to open
talks for inter-communion with
MethodistS.
The two earlier moves touched
off a controversy between the
Church of England's "Anglo-Catho-
lie" minority and its Protestant
minded majority The move for
closer union with the Orthodox
Church has passed relatively ,un-
noticed.
The Russian churchmen, here
with the blessing of Moscow for
propaganda purposes as part of the
current communist "appeaSement"
campaign in the west, were cordial
| ly greeted by Church of England
leaders.
Archbishop Godfrey Fisher of
Canterbury, Anglican Primate, well
coming the Russians to London
after their tour of Scotland, ex-
pressed the hope that future dis
cussions between our two Churches
may lead to a greater increase in
understanding and fellowship"
The Russian delegation was led

New Englsh-Latin
Ritual Is Approved
In II us. Sees

CHICAGO -(NC)- Use of the
new Latin-English ritual granted
by His Holiness Pope Plus XII has
been approved fully in four arch
dioceses and Is dioceses of the
nation, a survey conducted by the
Vernacular Society, which has
headquarters here, disclosed.
The society's survey also showed
that partial approval of the ritual
has been given in one archdiocese
and five dioceses.
The sanction of the Holy Father
permits the use of English in con-
nection with the administration of
some Sacraments as well as with
number of blessings impaired.
All dioceses in Ohio have ap-
proved use of the new ritual.

Upon receipt OF the letter,
Mrs. Risney said that she would
like TO go TO Peiping TO visit her
son, bLf that she wss not phYsi.
eaIly able TO make fhe trip.
Meanwhile spokesman for the
State Department in Washington
said that although Mrs. Rigney had
not applied for passport to go to
China, it woul6 refuse to issue one
because it could not guarantee the
safety of an American citizen visit
ing communist China.
Father Rigney, a member of the
Divine Word Missionaries and an
alumnus of the society's seminary
at Techny, H., was rector of the
Flu Jen University in Peiping in
1851 when the communists took
control. He objected to a number
of communists being installed on
the university faculty and was
jailed when certain financial sup
port OF the university was stopped
because of the communists being
named on the faculty.
