0 Page 2A EUGENE REGISTER-GUARD, Sat., January S, 1963 Benedictine to Speak at UO Ecumenical Council, Unity to Be Topic ; THE Formerly REV. JORDAN Noted Correspondent A Benedictine monk who has been report ing activities of the Second Vatican Ecumeni cal Council for the National Catholic Welfare Conference News Service, will speak at the University of Oregon Jan. 10. The Rev. Placid Jordan, O.S.B. will discuss "The Ecumenical Council and Christian Unity" at an 8 p.m. assembly in the ballroom of the Erb Memorial Student Union. His appearance is sponsored by the Newman Catholic Student Center.. . . A noted foreign correspondent during and following World War II, Father Jordan was credited with being first to report the begin ning of the war, and received the National Headliners' Award for announcing the end of World War II. As religion editor and European editor for NBC, he became the first representative of the free world to broadcast a program from with in the Soviet Union. Father Jordan (then Max Jordan) had spe cial interest in the scope of Nazi war against Christian churches and had many contacts in the German underground movement. Many of his wartime experiences are re lated in his best-selling book, "Beyond All Fronts" which was published in 1946. Father Jordan was born of German Lu theran parents, but was ordained a Catholic priest in 1951 at the age of 56. Three years later he was received into the Benedictine Order. Often called the dean of American foreign correspondents, Father Jordan is the master of six languages. His experiences in many countries, coupled with his wide acquaintance with many people, have convinced him of the importance of church unity, a topic on which he has lectured widely, both here and in Europe. His Jan. 10 lecture is open to the public. Color Movie Of Conversion ' "The Tony Fontane Story," a feature-length color movie tell ing the story of the popular singer who turned to Christian work after a serious accident, will have its Oregon premiere in bugene tonight. The movie will be shown at 7 p.m. at First Baptist Church, Eugene, at a bi-weekly Eugene Youth for Christ rally. The showing is open to the public. Also on the program will be "The Accents," a singing group from Bible Standard College. - Fontane, who appeared ear lier this fall in Eugene, was a popular recording artist several years ago. He first attained popularity with a recording of "Cold, Cold Heart," a million seller. Other hit records fol lowed. - Then the singer was in a terious automobile crash, and his conversion to Christianity followed. Now he records only religious numbers, and appears at churches and religious con ventions throughout the United States. j Grim Forecast Puts Jews, I Catholics in Greatest Peril BERKELEY, Calif. OF) Who will survive an all-out atomic attack on the United States? Fewer Roman Cath olics and Jews than members of other religious groups, about the same number of Republicans as Democrats and the present proportion of Negroes to whites. These answers to the grim hypothetical question come from sociologists of the Uni versity of California Center for International Population and Urban Research. David M. Heer, head of the research group, said it is as sumed a major attack would kill more city dwellers than rural residents and would hit the East and West Coasts harder than the Midwest and Deep South. " Since Roman Catholics and Jews are concentrated in northern cities, they would be harder hit than other re ligious groups, Heer said. The group's preliminary stud ies also indicate: The political complexion probably would be more con servative even though the balance of the major parties kept the status quo more surviving Democrats would be from southern and rural areas. Because racial minorities, other than Negroes, are con centrated in coastal areas, they would be decimated. And the loss of many high ly trained city dwellers prob ably would cause the educa tional level of the nation to drop. "This is a pilot project which will be partly quanti tative and partly specula-, tive," Heer said. The hypothetical attack on which the study is based was calculated for hearings be fore the Joint Congresisonal Committee on Atomic En ergy in 1959. Other sources Heer and his associates are using include census figures, election records and results of private polls. The Berkeley group, work ing under a contract with the U.S. Office of Civil Defense, will submit its reports esti mates of proportions of vari ous population segments still alive after a hypothetical at tack kills 40 million next June 1. i t 8 Prayer will be the topic Sunday morning for many sermons In the Emerald Empire as many denominations open a week long observance of Universal Week of Prayer.

KITCH Of the Associated Press CHICAGO Wl Racial injus tice will be a much-discussed subject in Chicago Jan. 14 when clergymen of major faiths con vene at the Edgewater Beach Hotel for a four-day meeting. For the first time, the Na tional Conference on Religion and Race will bring together all major churches to form a united attack on the problem of racial Injustice. - The conference may have far reaching though perhaps not immediately discernible effect on tho social climate of the United States. The immediate result will be the hammering out of a "declar ation of conscience" which will go out as tho word from the leaders of most of this country's churches. A planning committee is pro ducing recommendations for the consideration of the conference as to follow-up action on na tional and local levels. Those attending the confer ence will include officials of the National Council of Churches, the Synagoguo Council of Amer ica and the National Catholic Welfare Conference. More than 60 religiously affil iated national organizations have indicated they will be repre sented by delegates at the con ference. Chairman of the conference will be the Rev. Dr. Benjamin E. Mays, president of Morehouse College in Atlanta, Ga. The vice chairman will be the Right Rev. Germanos Psallidak is, bishop of the Synadon and head of the Greek Orthodox See in Detroit, Mich.; the Most. Rev. Paul J, Hallinan, archbishop of Atlanta; Rabbi Ferdinand M. Is serman of Temple Israel, St. Louis, and Bishop Julian Smith, presiding bishop of the First Episcopal District of Christian Methodist Episcopal Church. The planners of the confer ence said it is being convened "to provide an occasion for lay and clerical religious heads to conduct a concrete examination of the role of the churches and synagogues in meeting religious and civic racial problems." The planners hope that the conference will give a push to projects designed to crumble remaining racial barriers. X ;;v:: Ai " I- - fQy FIRST EVANGELICAL UNITED BRETHREN 8th It Monroe DI 3-9241 M.
