Meeting Of Pope, Canterbury
Archbishop Sirs Various
Comment In Italy, England
VATICAN CITY (AP) - Pope
John XXIII said today his historic
meeting with the Archbishop of
Canlerhury "went only as far as
the threshold of great problems,"
but left hope for their eventual
solution.
The supreme pontiff of the Ro
man Catholic Church made this
comment to cardinals and arch
bishops with whom he participat
ed in preparatory services for the
Christmas season.
At the end of the services, the
Pope told the prelates of his 65
minute talk Friday with the pri
mate of the Church of England.
"I admire the sincere force of
good will which Dr. Kishcr (the
archbishop) is carrying forward,"
the Pope said.
"Our meeting took place in an
atmosphere of cordiality and un
derstanding on both sides."
"Of course," the Pope said,
"our talks went only as far as
the threshold of great problems.
"Naturally the crusts formed
during four centuries are many,
but with understanding and mu
tual contacts, (in) which Dr. fish
er courageously undertook to take
the initiative, with time there
could come love and the truth."
Othtr contacts Foreseen
The general view in church cir
cles in Home was that the meet
ingthe first ever between a head
of the Catholic Church and a pri
mate of the Anglican Church
would stimulate other contacts
between Catholic and Protestant
churchmen seeking Christian
unity.
Dr. Geoffrey Fisher, the 73-year-old
archbishop, said he con
sidered the meeting historic, and
told newsmen "good examples
are sometimes followed "
He observed cautiously, how
ever, that he did nut know what
the results would be. In a ser
mon here Thursday night he made
it clear that he did not consider
Christian unity necessarily means
reunion with the Church of Home.
There are reasons for the arch
bishop's action because 79-year-old
Pope John repeatedly speaks
of his hopes that "separated"
Christians will return to the Hu
man Catholic Church.
II Quotidiano, daily organ of
Italian Catholic Action, referred
editorially today to Christians
who "are still far from the true
church."
The paper said the archbishop's
visit had stirred "new hope"
among Catholics, but warned that
it probably also will cause
"voices of discord and unfounded
pessimism" to be raised.

Yule season has arrived in Poseburg. Whatever else
Christmas means, it also means more people begin to con

and will stay open until that time every night of the week

Steel production made only a
modest comeback from last
week'i holiday-curtailed opera
tions. A decline ended the stock mar
ket's postelection rally.
The government reported new
orders received by manufacturers
dropped four per cent in October,
ending a two-month rise.
However, there were expres
sions of optimism for the future.
Chairman Henry C. Alexander
of the Alorgan Guaranty Trust Co.
of New York City said at the In
vestment Bankers Association
convention:
"We have a pretty good level
of business activity. I think
there's a good chance that with

be a slieht UDturn."
Chairman Ralph J. Cordiner of
General Electric Co. said he was
confident of a business revival in
1961 but added "it's anybody's
guess when it comes.
Steel Situation Poor
Steel output this week edged up
only to an estimated 49.3 per cent
of capacity from last week's 48
per cent. Sleet executives lore
cast further decline in December,
traditionally a slow month.
Pay raises of 7 tp 13 cents an
hour went into effect for 500,000
basic steel workers as a result
of the contract which settled last
year's strike. There were no in
dications that, an increase in
steel prices is imminent. Keen
comoetition and slow demand are
working against the likelihood of
a boost in tne near luiure.
Auto Production Soars
By contrast, the automobile
industry was a bright stop in
ine economic piciuie.
Production jumped back from
the holiday week with an esti
mated output of 141.000 passenger
cars. Last week the total was
111.181.
The automakers rolled out 597,
116 cars in November, bringing
the vear's total to 6.172.075. more
than one million ahead of a year
ago.
New car sales in the middle
third of November totaled 165,200,
second best on record for the pe
riod. A familiar nameplate faded

per cent under the budget pro

Hatfield.
The fund for the current bien

general fund is public welfare,
which takes 11.8 per cent or $42.2
million.
The governor said he definitely
planned ot go ahead and move the
welfare offices from Portland lo
