A United Press survey of state

makers themselves showed that
proposed bills restricting labor
unions, and revamping unemploy

laws are apt to be the most de
bated issues in the legislative

Most controversial of all, per

Flying Made Fun

SAN FERNANDO, Cal. (U.B
Ted Nelson has done for soaring
enthusiasts what the ski lift in
ventor did for skiers eliminated
the tedious part of the sport and
kept the fun.
Launching soaring planes by
towing with an auto, airplane or
winch robbed the sport of much
of its pleasure. Nelson felt. So he
put a 50-pound. 25-horsepower
engine on his glider.
"The motor is powerful enough
to lift my Dragonfly into the air
and permit me to prowl for the
thermals the rising air currents
that give impetus to soaring,"
Nelson explained.
He is going to make a non-stop
flight to San Francisco on three
gallons of gasoline just to prove
it can be done and then he hopes
to make a transcontinental trio.
Nelson does not plug his glider
as a means of transportation. It's
for pleasure flying, with the dirty
work removed, he tells friends;

Associated Press Staff Writer
SAN FRANCISCO (P) Or
dinarily a man's religion is his
personal affair, but it was world
news nearly 20 years ago when
China's Generalissimo Chiang
Kai-Shek became a Methodist.
Now there is talk in China that
he may be approaching a second
conversion this time to the
Catholic Church.
Thus far this has been mere
speculation, but speculation in
creased greatly this week after
the young, vigorous archbiship of i
Nanking. Paul Yu Pin, was asked I
at a Nanking press conference if
the Generalissiml was becoming
interested in the Catholic religion, j
"I hope so," replied the arch-;
bishop.
Archbishop May B Hoping
It is not at all clear whether
Archbishop Yu is merely express
ing a hope or speaks with fore
knowledge of Chiang's intentions,
says a special dispatch by Associ
ated Press Correspondent Spencer
Moosa in Shanghai.
The young archbishop is an im
portant figure in China, At 45 he
is next to Cardinal Thomas Tien
in the Chinese Catholic heirarcby.
He also is a delegate In the na
tional assembly for the Commu-
nise-held Manchurian province of
Heilungkiang. Moosa recalls that
for some years he. has been on
close terms with the generalise
simo, and this relationship has not
deteriorated as the government's
relations with the - Communists
have grown worse since V-J day,
Translates New Testament
The rumors that Chiang might
be interested in Catholicism as a
personal faith began in Chung'
king in 1943, recalls Moosa. Since
then the generalissimo has edited
a new translation of the Mew
Testament psalms by a Chinese
Catholic whose personal history
lends color to the rumors. This
man is the famous jurist, John C
H. Wu, who formerly was
Protestant but embraced Cath
olicism in 1937. Chiang recently
named him Chinese minister to
the Vatican.
In a book dealing with his con-
version, Wu criticizes what he
calls the "appalling lack of unity
and certainty" in Protestant the'
ology.
. Moosa says that It is not known
whether Wu has influenced Chi
ang, and points out that Chiang
became a Methodist only after ex
tended study of the life and teach
ings of Christ.
After that he married Metho
dist, American-trained Soong
Mei-Ling, and Moosa adds that
one of the more interesting items
in the speculation today
whether she would fnllnur r-M
into the Catholic faith if he em
braced it himself.
Moosa concludes by saying that
no one Dossiblv not even rMon
himself knows whether he is go
