Bishop Bnzgys said he obtained from friends secret Soviet docu ments in which the teaching of all religion to children and the ob servance of all holy days were or dered abolished. The prelate, Mho came to the United States in 1951, testified that within five months after the Soviets occupied Lithuania in 1940. Church property was confis cated and leading personnel of Catholic and patriotic societies were arrested: many were tortur ed and shot and others sent to con centration camps in Russia. "All Catholic nowspapars and magazines were suppressed dur ing the first week of occupa tion," Bishop Brizgys said. "Ef forts to have at least one cate chism or prayer book were fu tile. Without any compensation all printing establishments wera taken over." Prelates and priests, expelled from their rectories, were repeat edly evicted from rooms provided for them by private persons.

Vander bilt, who delivered the courts 20 page written opinion, said that to allow the distribution of the Prot estant version of the New Testa ment would be "renewing the an cient struggles among the various religious faiths to the detriment of all” and that this the court “must decline to do.” s 1 The case originated when the Board of Education of Rutherford, N. J., decided to distribute the King James version of the New Testament along with the Books of Psalms and Proverbs to the stu dents of public schools. When the case was tried in the Superior Court, Judge J. Wallace Leyden said he saw nothing uncon stitutional nor illegal about the plan, but granted Tudor a tempo rary injunction to delay carrying out of the Rutherford board’s plan until the New Jersey Supreme Court could decide on the issue. The Gideons International had donated the King James version of the New Testament and the Books of the Old Testament for distribution among public school students in the Rutherford district. In the lower court case, it was contended that the distribution of the King James version was objec tionable to adherents of the Jew ish and Catholic faiths, and also to some other non Protestant denomi I nations. $ Dept. 4-1912 S The action was protested by Ber nard Tudor, a Jew, and Ralph Le Coque. a Catholic, parents of pub lic school children, who subse quently instituted a suit for an injunction to prevent the board from carrying out its plan. Later. Mr. LeCoque’s child transferred from the public to a Catholic school and he withdrew from the case.
