Joseph Cardinal Wendell, of

of communist authorities to
allow Catholic pilgrims from
behind the Iron Curtain to
attend the congress.
CARDINAL wendell SAID:

Finally the request of the

THE MOST INFAMOUS

edict Arnold, wrote: do you
know that the eye which
guides this pen lately saw
your mean and profligate Con-
gress at Mass for the soul of a
Roman Catholic in Purga-
tory?" The Solemn Requiem
had been celebrated in Saint
Mary's Church in Philadel-
phia.
The patriot newspapers OF
the colonies were as consist
ent in supporting the alliance
with France as was Congress.
Formerly loud in their denun-
citation of anything which had
even a Catholic flavor, the
newspapers then became pos
itively enthusiastic in their re-
ports pertaining to our ally.
EQUALLY NOTEWORTHY
was the complete acceptance
of the military union by the
Calvinist clergy. Once the
King of France had rivaled
the Pope as an object OF de-
nunciation. That attitude had
been completely abandoned
when the Reverend George
Duffield, from pulpit OF
the Third Presbyterian
Church of Philadelphia, called
for an end to detraction; in
herited prejudices should give
way to cordial affection.
There is surprisingly little
to quote from Catholics in
praise or in endorsement OF
the league with France. In
1777 the French Consul at Bal
timore observed that the
Maryland Catholics feared
an alliance with France, lest
they be prosecuted, and lest
their priests be expelled
The rack and rope of anti
Catholicism were retained in
the minds of the faithful long
after others had renowned
these instruments of torture.
TO THE OUTCOME of the
struggle Longfellow's words
may be applied: "You know
the rest. In the books you have
read ..." God indeed had
drawn good out of evil for the
long-suffering Catholics of
18th Century America. While
the tradition of nti-Catholic-
ism had not been shattered,
undoubtedly its previously UNI
broken front had been pene-
trated.
The American Revolution
brought liberty to the colon
les; moreover it brought to
the American Catholics a real
hope Of freedom of con-
science. For most of them the
shackles would not vanish inn
mediately or completely. But
never again would the out
look be as bleak, nor the very
survival of Catholicism In
America be threatened,

might have resulted from an
overdose Of barbiturates, but
added:

Of suicide.

showed "a clinical picture con-

Eight other crewmen from

In addition, the Indonesian
government sent word that
Capt. Peter F. Petrone "and

The lifeboat with its four
crewmen returned to the Valley
Forge and started back toward
the tug with 18 more passengers
but was unable to reach the
Griper.
The lifeboat then began
