Letter Is Disclosed
In another development in
the 11-day-old dispute over a
decision to desegregate paro-
chial schools in the archdio-
cese, Mrs. B. j. Gaillot, jr.,
disclosed contents of a letter
from Archbishop Joseph Fran
els Rummel threatening her
with accommodation.
Mr.. Dittmann was inter-
viewed on a television news
program on Station WDSU-
TV concerning the new organ
ization, the first in New Or
leans to endorse Archbishop
Rummel's desegregation de-
cision.
The group issued a statement
critizing other Catholic organ
izations-Knights of Columbus,
Holy Name Society and Catho-
lie Daughters Of America-for
not having the courage to step
forward to denounce publicly
the erroneous opinions" of
those attacking the arch
bishops decision and favoring
segregation.
The group said it felt it
represented the majority view
of Catholics in the city.

Mrs. Gaillot said: 1--WE deem it |

accommodation is the most
drastic punishment facing al
Catholic. There are many
forms, the most stringent of
which bars a Catholic from
receiving the church's sacra-

Catholics from associating with
