Surrender Of Resistance To
Red Government Indicated By
Hungary's Catholic Clergy
BUDAPEST. Hungary UP Hungary's Roman Catholic bench of
bishops has asked for an official review of "church questions" in a
step interpreted as a surrender of the church's long resistance to the
government.
The fact that the government itself announced the church move
officially indicates that the government will accept it as a surrender,
demand that the bishops take an oath of allegiance to Hungary's con
stitution, and instruct its clergy to sign the "Stockholm peace petitions."
(l .e bench of bishops is the
highest ecclesiastic authority of
the Catholic church in Hungary
since its primate Josef Cardinal
Mindszenty was jailed for life in
1949 on treason and spying
charges.)
The bishops decided two days
ago to ask the government for
conferences at which heads of 63
religious orders should also be
present. They would represent the
11,000 monks and nuns in 636

maxed a bitter campaign oi press
and radio attacks on the Catholic
clergy b declaring that they were
"imperialist agitators ana reac
tionary newsmongers." He raised
the question whether the country
could tolerate their existence
further.
The church has been in passive
resistance to tha government since
the conviction of Mindszenty but
the strife was inflamed after
bishops, heads of orders, priests,
monks and nuns generally refused
to sign tha Stockholm peace ap
peal.
The document, drafted by the
"partisans of peace" at a congress
in Stockholm, is considered by the
government as the Highest stan'
dard of democratic belief and loy
alty. It calls for outlawing atom
weapons.
Clergy Refuses To Sign
The government said that 7,
200.000 Hungarians signed the pe
titions but the Catholic clergy did
not. Priests referred only to a
bishops' declaration, carefully
worded and resembling the Stock
holm appeal, which was declared
to have been issued in the name of
all the Catholic clergy.

Gestapo' Label
Arouses Wrath Of
Tax Commission
SALEM. June 23 UP) The
State Tax commission scolded the
press and a group of taxpayers
Thursday for making "numerous
misstatements ' in connection witn
recent protests of assessment rates
by Clackamas county taxpayers
The assessment and taxation div
ision of the tax commission, issued
a statement in which they asserted
the Clackamas county dispute "has
not been reported in the press fac
tually." A statement attributed to a tax
payer group drew the commis
sion's wrath. "The commission re
sents the statement that 'Gestapo
methods of moral suasion' are
charged to the commission by (he
Clackamas County Taxpayers lea
gue," the statement said, and add
ed "the word 'Gestapo' as com
monly understood, is a secret pol
ice using underhanded methods in
volving innocent persons. The lea
gue has been using loose language
in cirticizing the state appraisal
engineers in performing their
duty".
Some 68 taxpayers in Clacka
mas county protested their assess
ments recently, made by Assessor
Rufus Wood, and complained to
the Clackamas county board of
equalization, which ordered the
assessor to go back to the 1949
assessment base.
A commission hearing on the
clergy were called "atom priests"
and "atom nuns."
After Revai's speech, many
cloisters and monasteries were or
dered evacuated and their occu
pants were transferred to other re
ligious centers.
It is stated here, however, that
stories published abroad of monks
and nuns transferred en masse
into internment camps are without
foundation.
Other Christian denominations
and Jews long ago elected clerical
and secular leaders satisfactory to
the government. These officials
took an oath of allegiance to Hun
gary's new peoples democracy
constitution but Catholic bishops
have so far refused to do so with
out permission of the Vatican.
Truman Predicts Taft's
Defeat In Ohio Race
WASHINGTON, June 23. UP)
At his news conference yester
day. President Truman said sharp
ly that if he were voting in Ohio
where Senator Taft, Republican,
is running for reelection he would
vote the straight Democratic ticket
as .' e always does. He predicted
that Taft's Democratic opponent,
Joseph T. Ferguson, will win.
The question of Ohio politics
came up when Mr. Truman was
asked about a statement by Ohio's
Governor Frank Lauschc that he
had not decided whether he would
vote for Taft or Ferguson. Lauschc
is a Democrat and the President
was asked whether he would com
ment on the governor's "indeci
sion." He said no.

Veto Bans Suit
Against Indians
WASHINGTON, June 23-OT)
veto by President Truman soar
ed the Klamath Indians $81,933 in
law suits yesterday. It may. how
ever, be only temporary relief.
The President vetoed three bills
that would have permitted the
Forest Lumber Co., Kansas City,
Mo., and two other concerns to
file suits for that amount.
Mr. Truman said the monev re
presents increases in the price paid
by the lumber companies for tim
ber cut from the Indian reserva
tion above the initial basic price
of $5.08 a thousand feet. The bills
would have permitted the Forest
Lumber Co., the Algoma Lumber
Co., and the Lamm Lumber Co.,
to sue in me court ot claims.
Under agreements made bv the
Klamath Indian agency, the price
was raised from $5.08 in 1922 to
$5,48 on April 1, 1928. The com
panies paid, but under protest. The
supreme court later overruled an
award for the full amount by the
court of claims.
Mr. Truman said in his veto
message that he is not opposed to
a further review of the claims, and
that he would approve legislation
giving the claims court permission
to reconsider tne timber sale.
