Ban on Bogus Delegates
GENEVA (NC) The battle to insure that worker and
employer delegates at meetings of the International Labor
Organization are not government officials under a different
title made progress during the 128th session of the ILO’s gov
erning body.
The International Labor Organization is a specialized
agency, associated with the United Nations, where representa
tives of governments, employers groups and trade unions col
laborate in studying social condi
tions and in framing suggestions
for legislation looking toward
greater social justice.
The essentially tri partite char
acter of the ILO has been seriously

in doubt since the arrival of the
Soviet delegation at the annual
conference last June. Protests
made at the time against the seat
ing of the so-called “worker” and
“employer” delegates of the Soviet
bloc having failed, a demand was
made for a clarifying change in
the ILO’s Constitution to guarantee
the naming of “free and indepen
dent” delegates from the private
sector of the economy at future
ILO meetings. In another action
the ILO governing body invited
Spain to sepd a delegation of offi
cial observers to the next general
conference. The United States gov
ernment delegates supported the
move against the almost unani
mous opposition of the workers’
group who condemn the absence of
free trade unions in Spain.
A proposal to convene a work
ing group of eight experts on fam
ily living studies later this year
in Geneva was adopted. Family liv
ing studies are designed to obtain
information on the income, ex
penditure, consumption patterns,
employment, etc., of families.
During the discussion August
Vanistendael, secretary of the In
ternational Federation of Christian
Trade Unions, expressed the hope
that the experts would not be
drawn exclusively from govern
ment circles.

Discrimination, Not Abuse,
Is Lot of Catholics in Pakistan
KARACHI, Pakistan (NC)
The Church in Pakistan, as
in most Moslem countries, is
in the position of an unwant
ed guest.
While there are practically
no government restrictions on
the freedom of the Church, in
dividual Catholics face dis
crimination at the hands of
the overwhelming majority.
Two major facts must be taken
into consideration in estimating
the position of the Church in Pak
istan, which is the missionary in
tention of the Apostleship of Pray
er for March.
First, this nation was created
solely to protect and perpetuate
the Islamic way of life. When In
dia won its independence in 1947,
its more than 70,000,000 Moslems
were afraid that their 300,000,000
Hindu countrymen would make life
difficult for them. As a result they
secured their own homeland and
Pakistan came into being.
embrace the Faith invites dis
crimination of all kinds. He is
considered a traitor to his fam
ily and his country. At the very
least he will pay for his con
versions by the loss of his job
and his property.
The second fact to remember
about the Church here is that it is
relatively small and weak. Catho
lics in Pakistan number only
228.000 in a .total population of
77,000,000.
Unlike India, Pakistan has few
native priests—only 69 out of 297
for the whole country. The recent
building of seven minor seminaries
aims at remedying this situation.
Despite the Church’s relative,
freedom from official interference,
life for the individual Catholic is
becoming harder each year. The
end of British rule meant unem
ployment for the many city Catho
lics who held government jobs. To
day these jobs are virtually closed
to alt except Moslems.
Catholic peasants have had an
even harder time. Following parti
tion, many Catholic farmers were
driven from the land to make room
for Moslem farmers as Moslem
landlords took the place of Hindus.
Many of these Catholics have since
drifted to the cities where a-con
siderable number have been forced
to make their living as scavengers.
The work of the Church in Pak
istan is mainly educational and
charitable.

V.S. Chino Policy
PITTSBURGH —(NC) United
States policy towards China over
the last decade was criticized here
by Bishop Cuthbert O’Gara, CP.,
exiled by the communists from his
Yaungling diocese.
The Bishop took issue with the
American attitude towards China
from the days immediately follow
ing World War II up io what he
called the present U.S. “give-away”
policy towards the islands off the
coast of China. He says the “give.
away” program tells the commun

The Passionist prelate was im

be exiled from the country.
