HARRIS, lac y PERPETUAL NOVENA Our Lady of Perpetual Help Every Tuesday 7:30 p.m. St. Christopher’s Church Grandview & Id* Of Philippine’s Voters MANILA (NC) A joint pastoral was issued here by the Catholic Hierarchv of the Philippines stressing the duties of Catholic voters in the coming November elections. The Bishops said these obligations were not only to vote, but to help maintain the freedom and integrity of the election polls. Referring to the intense and in-/ creasing rivalry between National-! ists and Liberals, which has alI ready erupted into bloodshed ini various sectors of the country, thel Bishops said the November elec-l tions may well be one of the del cisive turning points in Philippine! history. They stressed that any in-l terference with the freedom of thel ballot is a serious crime againstl God and the State. I “We here in the Philippines,"I the Bishop asserted, “are approach ing a very important event, thel general elections, and party rival-1 ry has been brought to the keenest I pitch. This rivalry is in itself al good sign, as indicating a growing! awareness among our people ofl public issues and an increased po-l litical maturity. I Moderating Influence I “But since such rivalry always I carries with it the danger of civic! dissension and national disunity,! it seems opportune at this time! that some moderating influence! should make itself felt—an influ-l ence capable of calming irritated! tempers and ensuring that sound! principles of prudence and morali ty rather than factional hatred andl personal enmities should dominate! the conduct of the elections.” Discussing the evil of election frauds, the Bishops declared that “surely every political leader worthy of the name must see that to violate the secrecy of the ballot or to tamper with election returns is to strike a blow at the very heart of our democratic system.” "Wa refuse to believe," tha Bish ops said, "that any political leader will even think of attacking or undermining the sacred freedom of the polls." However, they stated that "should anyone attempt to do so, we wish to maka it known that such a man commits a grievous crime against the fundamental law of our Republic, against the estab- COSTS SO LITTLE TO ENJOY SO MUCH CURRENT DIVIDEND RATE Metal Working Sheet Contractors’ Homecraft Full Line of Motors Osborne & Sexton Machinery Co.

The Bishops added that “God will surely punish, if the State does not, anyone who, for personal or party considerations, sinks so low as to preVent or sabotage free fair elections.” and Stressing that the Church no specific political alliance in the coming political contest, the Bish ops said that “we are, and always have been, extremely careful not to interfere in anything that is of an exclusively political nature.” Philippines HNS Acts to Ban Kinsey Book Holy MANILA (NC) The Name Society of the Philippines has taken steps to prevent the Kinsey report on the sexual be havior of the human female from entering this country.

You cen do your pert Sundey, Oct. 18, Mission Sunday, taken up for the Missions in ell when a special collection will be churches. “The Church’s Community Chest for her World Missions” is the title by which Bishop Sheen this week described the Society for the Prop agation of the Faith in its annual Mission Sunday observance, Oct. Bishop Sheen, national director of the Society, will telecast the ap peal nationally over the A.B.C. tele vision network. The program will be carried locally by television sta tion WTVN at 7:30 p. m., Sunday, Oct. 11. He will explain that the “means for conversions” prayer and sacrifice, are sought for all the missions of the whole church. The goals are, first, the prayers and sacrifices to obtain the grace of conversion for 1,100.000,000 nftn Catholics: and, second, the neces sary funds to sustain 100.000 miss ioners. 45.000 primary schools, 5000 middle schools. 1900 orphanages. 3400 dispensaries, 1200 hospitals and 220 leprosaria. Last year, iom» form of aid was given to 60,000,000, the greatest humanitarian work of the modern world. The collection, to be taken up in all churches, Oct. 18, is a gift of the St. Fiancis ot Assisi, bom thel son of a merchant in the yearl 1182 A. D., was chosen ourl Ixird to be a living example oil Christ's suffering while on earth.I When very young St. Francis was I instilled with a high esteem andl irning love ol poverty and humil I iation. which led him to renounce I the wealth and position that was! available to him. The people ofl Assisi, including his father, would! laugh and jeer at him as he walk-1 ed through town garbed in thel robes of poverty. Hit entire life was devoted to the teaching the multitudes that came to listen to him. Frequently St Francis would make a retreat in to the desert, where he could be alone to contemplate and pray. While on one of his retreats, the prints of the five bleeding wounds of Christ appeared on his hands, feet and side. With the words “Welcome sister Death” on his lips. St. Francis of Assist died on October 4, 1226. I '^1 faithful to the Holy Father who supervises the distribution of the funds. The policy of the Pope is to distribute 51 percent among the foreign missions, 40 percent among the home missions of the United States and Alaska, and the remain ing 9 percent to the areas of the Near East. Last year, the faithful of the Diocese of Columbus gove $31,000 to the Holy Father on Mission Sun day, a figure representing a con siderable amount over the national average sacrifice of twenty cents from each Catholic. New Japanese Seminary One of the most recent bright spots in mission history that is a direct result of last year’s Mission Sunday collection, is the opening of a seminary' in Tokyo to prepare Japanese young men for the priest hood. Its construction w’as supervised by Father Bruno Bitter, S. J., well known in the Columbus Diocese. Fr. Bitter, who has visited Colum bus on several occasions, reports that adult conversions numbered 10.669 during the past year. For Attacks On Clergy GRAZ. Austria Tito’s speech calling a halt to the beat ing of priests and Bishops is seen here as an attempt to allay aroused world opinion and to obviate discussion of these at tacks at the forthcoming conference of the Interparliamentary’ Union in Washington. It is reported here that Yugo slav diplomats in the western Eu ropaen capitals have repeatedly warned the Foreign Office in Bel grade that delegates to the Wash ington conference (Oct. 9-14) would charge the Yugoslav government with direct responsibility for recent attacks on priests and Bishops. (Lawmakers from 33 nations, in cluding Yugoslavia, are expected at the Interparliamentary conference in Washington. They will take social, economic and international problems and study what national legislatures can do (o solve them.) Tito's public "condemnation" of these attacks and his statement that they are against the law are view ed here as an attempt to put the Tito regime in the position of hav ing no responsibility for them. Tito spoke to a large crowd at Ruma in the heart of an agricultur al area near Belgarde. For obser vers here, tuo things tood out in his remarks: The first was his concern over world opinion. He told his listen ers that the Churches were using the attacks as an opportunity to pursue their “hostile policy." Secondly, Tito urged a mass boy cott of the churches and the clergy, as at least a temporary alternative to violence. 'The impression among observers here is that the truce called by Tito is only temporary and may be broken al any time. It is also limit'd that none of the perpetra tors of the violence against the priests and Bishops have been pun ished. N. 3rd St. Service 4 Repairs for All Makes of Cers U. S.
