Man Held in Theft Tells
Of Order to Sink Boat
By the Associated Press
BALTIMORE, Aug, 10.—Walter
Ashton Lawrence, 47-year-old Fort
Pierce (Fla.) sailor charged with
stealing a 40-foot sailboat, testified
yesterday one of its New York
owners ordered him to scuttle it.
Lawrence was arrested two weeks
ago when the auxiliary powered
bugeye was found dismasted and
with a new coat of paint at an Ann
apolis boatyard.
Lawrence was bound over for Fed
eral grand jury action on a charge
of violating the Federal stolen prop
erty act. He faces a maximum of 10
years' imprisonment, a $10,000 fine
or both.
The skipper told United States
Commissioner Ernest Volkart at his
arraignment yesterday that the
owners hired him to sail the Haly
con to New York but one of them,
Richard B. Botsford, told him "pos
itively that the boat was not to
reach New York, but was to be
burned on the way.”
Lawrence said his orders included
an instruction to cut off the masts
so they would not stick up and mark
the spot where it had gone down. It
was to be around Wildwood, N. J.,
he said.
Lawrence admitted he wrote a
letter to one of the owners saying
the craft had burned and sunk. H*
also acknowledged that he cut off
the masts, gave it a new coat of
paint, and changed the name to
Helen II.

Catholics Fail to Exert
Full Influence on U. S.
Life, Bishop Declares
Catholics are failing to exert
their full influence on American
life, the Most Rev. John M. Mc
Namara. auxiliary bishop of Wash
ington, today told students attend
ing the Summer School of Catholic
Action at Catholic University.
Bishop McNamara said that
though Catholics are relatively
large in numbers they are "weak
in influence.’’ He said the Com
munists, through zeal for their
cause, have made a much greater
impact and urged the Catholic
laity to assume responsibility in
putting the teachings of Christianity
to work, q
The bishop further asserted that
“the secularism taught in non
religous schools and colleges has i
prepared the way for the acceptance
of un-Christian ways of life." This
must be combated by making
Christianity better known through
more vigorous means, he added.
Parish Work Stressed.
The parish is the vital area for
the development of Catholic living,
the Rev. Daniel A. Lord, S.J., of St.
Louis, said in another speech before
the school today.
The priest, director of publications
for “Queen's Work,” a St. Louis re
ligious publications concern, went
on to deplore “the impact of mate
rialistic thinking” on Christianity.
"The delusion, which Catholics
share with others, that bodily com
fort, extensive commerce, success in
war and leadership at the council
table of nations are indications of
great progress, is a factor in the ap
paling lack of progress in the Cath
olic Church today,” he said.
Crosby, Mrs. Luce Honored.
At last night's lecture session, the
Rev. Edward Dowling, S.J., also of
St. Louis and a member of the
executive council of the National
Municipal League, said that for a
growth of democracy more persons
must vote and that we must have a
more democratic ballot. He recom
mended lowering of the voting age
to bring more people to the polls.
At a town hall meeting last night,
Clare Boothe Luce and Bing Crosby
were voted the Catholic woman and
man who made the mast important
contribution to the work of the
church the past year.
Approximately 1,000 students from
30 States and from Central and
South America are attending the
school, which opened yesterday and
ends Saturday. The Rev. Joseph
Kerr. S. J„ of Gonazga High School
is chairman of the local committee
for the school.
