ter from being read In pulpits.
Priests have reported they were
warned in night police visits
against reading pastoral letters,
the only means for the hierarchy
to tell its side of the church-state
light since the Catholic press was
shut down by the government.
The pastoral letter supported
reports of the seizure of the arch
bishop's administrative offices at
Prague and his virtual captivity
in his palace.
Churchmen said the govern
ment also took over nearly all
administrative offices in the
archdiocese and the dioceses of
the country and Installed, instead,
officials of the Communist-sponsored
Catholic Action, an organi
zation which the archbishop has
denounced as a tool of the state.
Those who joined willingly have
been excommunicated.

mates that $150,000.000 half the

Five-Time Premier Of
Spain Dies, Recanting
MADRID, Spain, June 27 .B
Alejandro Lerroux, 85, five
times premier of Republican
Spain, died today.
The family announced that
Lerroux, who had proclaimed his
agnosticism throughout his life,
returned to the Catholic church
and received the sacrement on
his deathbed. He will be buried
in Madrid's Catholic cemetery.
Lerroux was as strongly op
posed to Socialism and Commun
ism as he was to the monarchy,
and for this reason left-wing
groups prevented his election as
president of the Republic after
the throne was overturned In
1931.
Five times, however, he was
named premier to try to run
Spain on a middle-of-the-road
basis.
