Catholics Told
Not To Attend
Graham Sessions
NEW YORK I Catholics are
being warned again about attend
ing evangelist Billy Graham's
crusade in Madison Square Gar
den. The warning the second in sev
en weeks came from the Rev.
Richard Ginder, editor of "Our
Sunday Visitor," a national Cath
olic weekly.
Father Ginder said some Cath
olics had mistakenly taken the
view that their church had given
Graham's preaching "a mild sort
of approval."
To correct such assumptions, he
is publishing an editorial on the
subject in next Sunday's issue of
the church publication saying:
"We are tolerant and friendly
to Billy Graham and company
just as we are to the Lutherans,
Presbyterians and Jehovah s wit
nesses.
"However, our tolerance and
friendliness exist only at the so
cial and civil level. It stops dead
where religion enters in."
The first warning to Catholics
about attending Graham's services
was sounded in Washington, D.C.,
on April 24 by the Rev. John E.
Kelly, director of the bureau of
information of the National i,am
olie Welfare Conference.
He described Graham as a pur
veyor of false doctrines whose
teachings were "a danger to the
faith."

in the Columbia River remains
"well below the maximum per
missible" although a large
amount of the river's water is
used as a cooling agent at the
Hanford atomic plant, an engi
neer at the plant said Wednesday.
In a report to the American In
stitute of Chemical Engineers,
Royal E. Rostcnbach said radio
active isotopes decay while waste
water from the plant is held in
settling basins prior to being re
turned to the river.
Most of the radioactivity found
in the Columbia as a result of
operations at Hanford disappears
before the waste water reaches
McNary Dam, 25 miles down
stream, Rostenbach said.

Portland Advised To Buy
Block For City Building
PORTLAND ( Portland
should buy a downtown city block
for a future city-county building.
That was the recommendation
Tuesday from the city planning
director, Lloyd Keefe. Two vCity
Council members said they ap
proved the idea.
Koefe's suggestion was for the
fiurchase of the block that now
ies between City Hall and the
Multnomah County Courthouse.
He said the city could buy the
south half now for about $200,000.
Parking lots and filling stations
are in that area. He estimated a
building could be put up for an
other $540,000.
Keefe said that when the county
joins the program later, the north
half of the block could be pur
chased and another unit of the
city-county building constructed.
He saifl the building could be
connected to the present govern
ment structures with tunnels.
