Th* Bishop asked the cooper

“We are mindful too of the
bonds of affection,” the Bishop
said, “which the good people liv
ing within the limits of the new
parish, have for Christ the King
parish and for the devoted priests
who have served them. Their love
and loyalty for God’s Holy
Church demonstrated so elo
quently throughout the past ten
years by their constant support
of Christ the King parish, assures
us that they will manifest the
same virtues in the building of a
new parish which in future days
will be another holy center of
Catholic devotion and culture.”

The Holy Father praised the

The Bishops of the United
States have called upon the
faithful “to pledge them

of prayer” for peace.
At the same time they
warned against those who
because of “selfish interest” or
“rash counsel” would “jeopar

world peace,” and underscored
“the urgency of prompt and ef

the guns of war and to enforce

Hits Speech
Aimed at Card.
Mindszenty
VATICAN CITY—(Radio, NO
—Janos Kadar, Hungary’s Red
puppet premier, has been scored
by L’Osservatore Romano for a
speech in which he said that the
November 3 radio address of His
Eminence Joszef Cardinal Mind
szenty, Primate ot Hungary,
“held only severe attacks on our
socialist system.”
Hungary’s socialist system, the
Vatican City daily stated in an
editorial, was dead long before
the radio talk In which the Card
inal said Hungary wants to live
in peace with all countries. Card
inal Mindszenty spoke shortly
after his release from eight years
of communist imprisonment and
a day before he took refuge
from Soviet troops in the United
States legation in Budapest.
L’Osservatore noted that the
Cardinal had refrained from po
litical statements in his radio
talk.
“Who can blame him,” the
newspaper asked, “for requesting
that Soviet troops be with
drawn?”
“Only a ‘government’ which
had called in foreign forces to
help it could accuse Cardinal
Mindszenty of having ‘reaction
ary intentions,’ it answered.
The editorial pointed out that
Kadar’s motive for attacking the
Cardinal is plain. It said he is
trying to divert towards others
the hate and disdain felt by Hun
garians for a “‘government’
which was set up only to enable
the Soviets to open fire on the
Hungarian people and bring
them back into slavery.”

An official of one of the su

“the whole thing was a fail

Besides, he said, the practice
generally had proved not worth
