So he tied tourniquets around
his
arms and legs in order to
protect his heart before caring
for the extremities. But lo and
behold! He discovered that his
heart began to fail the more he
hoarded the blood As soon as
he took off the cords and allow
ed the
flood to flow freely
through the body, his health re
turned.

Divine Paradox: Bv "Losing

Once upon a

heart must
have plenty of
blood, he be

fact that so
much of it

for others, the more we help
ourselves. Our home parish, our
home dioceses have grave needs
and must be helped, but every
now and then we must think of
others, for by a Divine Paradox,
only by ‘Hosing our life do we
find it.” As sending the blood
to the extremities of the body
aids the heart, so making sacri
fices for poorer missions at home
and abroad helps the heart at
home. The persons and parishes
that are most blessed are those
who are most conscious of the
yearning for Christ among the
Christ-less people of the world.
The left side of the heart and
the right side of the heart have
no direct communication one
with another. There is communi
cation between them only after
the blood pours nut from one
side, and flows through the en
tire body and back again to the
other side. So in the Mystical
Body of Christ, each Catholic
and each parish has communion
and strength within itself, only
when it dispenses its plasm of
self-denial through all the cells
of the Mystical Body of Christ
throughout the world.
Last year the per capita con
tribution of the Catholics of the
world to the Holy Father for the
pnnr missions was exactly two
cents The per capita contribu
tion of the United States to the
Holy Father for the missions was

NCWC News Service
Catholic lay leaders in various
parts of the country have now call
ed on the United States govern
ment to bring before the United
Nations the case of the Bulgarian
Bishop, priests and lay people con
demned by a Red court on fabricat
ed charges.
Bishop Eugene Bossilkoff of Nik
opol, Bulgaria, 28 priests, a nun,
a lay woman and a number of lay
men were “tried” for alleged es
pionage and treason by a Red court
in Sofia. The Rishop and three
priests were sentenced to death,
the rest to prison terms varying
from three to 20 years
Catholic Groups Speak
The presidents of the National
Council of Catholic Men and
Catholic Women and Ca

State Dean Acheson to bring the
so called trial before the bar of
world opinion al the U.N.
In a message to Mr Acheson re

upon our government to take

priests condemned to death and
also to "move this case in the

bly.”
World-Wide Protest
Meanwhile, similar voices in pro
test were raised all over the world.
In Dublin. Archbishop Gerald P.
O'Hara, Bishop of Savannah-Atlan
ta and papal envoy to Ireland, said:
“Undoubtedly the real reason
why Bishop Bossilkoff and the
priests were condemned to death,
and others given long sentences,
was their fidelity to the Church
and their steadfast refusal to
abandon it.”
Archbishop O’Hara has had con
siderable experience on how things
go in a communist country. He
himself was ousted from Red Ru
mania after serving as regent of
the papal nunciature there for
several years.
Inndon reported that the Vatican
Rvdio broadcast heard here rom
mented on a Sofia, Bulgaria,
broadcast which purportedly gave
the reaction of Catholics to the
trial.
Vatican Radin said that undouhf
edly there is “great indignation”
among the Bulgarian Catholic*
But, it added, this anger is nnt
directed at the victims nf the so
called trial hut at the Red court
and the methods used tn break the
will nf these penpie an they "con
fessed” crimes they never com
miffed
In Rome the Central Executive
nf the Christian Democrat Party
also vniced vigorous protest in a
statement declaring that the death
sentences handed to Bishop Rossil
knff and three priests were just
nne more confirmation nf the con
tempt nf world communism fnr hu

statement pledged solidarity with
oppressed Catholics in communist
countries and pledged the party tn

Moslems, Protestants Support
Legion Of Decency In Malaya
Back Catholics In Drive To Boycott Immoral Films
And Literature See Danger To Youth
SINGAPORE—rNC Protestant*
and Mohammedans are reported
here to be joining Catholics in
support of the Leginn of Decency
started last July by Bishop Mich
ael Olcemendy of Malacca to com
bat immoral films and literature
in Malaya.
Prominent among those backing
the Legion is Gen Sir Gerald Tern
pier, High Commissioner of Ma
laya. who stated in a letter pub
lished in the Straits Times that be
regards the Legion as an import
ant potential force against inde
cent movies and literature.
Meanwhile, a great number of
Malays (Mohammedans) have al
ready signed the Legion’s pledge to
boycott objectionable mnvies. In
an editorial implicitly backing the
Catholic organization. Utuson. the
Singapore Moslem newspaper, de
dared: “The film censor in Malaya
should try tn follow the example
of some countries where films are
divided into various categories al
lowable for screening to various
age groups.”
No distinction is made in Singa
pore and Malaya between films for
adults and youngsters. The result
is that youngsters of different na
tionalities are admitted indiscnm
Inately tn pictures which are not
only partly, but wholly, objection
able.
Catholic reaction to the forma
tion of the legion has been de
scribed as “prompt am’ vigorous.”
A process of education has been
started through the schools and in
the pulpits, and the legion of
Mary is conducting a door-to-door
campaign explaining the Legion
pledge and getting signatures,
even from Protestants and pagans.

Liturgical Art
TOKYO -(NC)—A new era in the
history nf lapane«-e liturgical art is
now in the making, according tn a
leading New York Catbnhc art ed
itor.
He is Maurice Lavanoux. editor
of Liturgical Arts, who is on a
world tour seeking material for
his magazine and whn plans a spp
cial Japan number for next Fehm
ary. He spent three weeks visiting
the principal Japanese Catholic
centers, from Tokyo in the East to
Hiroshima in the West.
He points out that, as far as he
can discern, there have already
been three periods in the evolution
of liturgical art Japan The fust,
he said, was characterized by a
heavy over lay nf pseudo European
culture, while the second began as
a result of the impetus given to
native art hy Archbishop Celso
Costantini. ♦ecretary of the Scared

Art Standards Accepted
At present. Mr. Lavanoux con
tinued, the ecclesiastical art of Ja
pan is going through a third and
more positive period in which
there is greater willingness to ac
cept present day standards nf con
sfruction and a modern conception
of design.
“It is at this point.” the art ed
itor declared, “that opinions vary
among missionaries Some contend
that the ancient Japanese forms
are not too acceptable to converts,
since they remind them too much
of their former pagan allegiance,
while others claim that a vital liv

Mystery Shrouds
Capnchiifs Death
In Red Bulgaria
ROME (Radio, NC)—A Capuchin
priest has died in a prison in Com
munist dominated Bulgaria under
mysterious circumstances, accord
ing to SICO, information service of
the Sacred Congregation for the
Oriental Church.
The service said the priest was
42-year-old Father Fortunatus Bak
alscki. O M.. Cap., who had been
arrested July 18. and who was re
ported by the Bulgarian police to
have died of double pneumonia on
an unspecified day during August.
Suspicion centers on the cause
of Father Bakalscki’s death, SICO
said, because he was in robust
health at the time he was arrested.
It added that neither his religioui
superiors, nor his family or anyone
else, had been advised that he was
ill and in danger of death.
Father Bakalscki’s fate recalled
the case of another Bulgarian
Capuchin, Father Damiano, who
was arrested two years ago and
has been unheard of since. A re
port reaching Vienna last March
said the priest had only then been
brought to trail for his “hostile
attitude toward the communist re
tenue. He was condemned to 12
years’ imprisonment, the report
stated.
i
offer these sentiments of deepest gratitude to Bishop
Sheen and those wonderful diocesan directors of the Propagation
of the Faith, all of whom have been so good to the Near East.

IS IT A LOST ART?
We hope it is not. But even in Our Lord’s time, after he cured
the ten lepers and only one returned to thank Him, he did ex
claim: “Ten were made clean and where are the nine?” At least,
as Mission Sunday is celebrated on October J9 in so many dio
ceses,
THIS YOUNG MAN
proudly stands before th«
