Catholic Church
Attacks Czech
Government Rule
Prague, Czechoslovakia, Oct. 21
IP The Roman Catholic church
today charged the Czech commu
nist government with "rape" In
eeklng "liquidation" of - the
church.
A church document bluntly told
priests they would not be "shep
herds but hired laborers" If they
accepted high government salar
ies under the new church contract
law recently enacted.
The law, effective Nov. 1, turns
the clergy Into civil servants and
legally transfers from the Vatican
to the communist government
control of the church.
"The establishment of the state
office for church affairs is an
unheard-of rape of the interna
tionally recognized constitution
of the Catholic church and an ef
fort to liquidate It, for here In
place of the divine spiritual au
thority which had its origin in the
sacrament of holy orders comes
also lay authority which takes
over the right of decision, not
only In purely material matters
but also In mixed matters, and
Indeed even In matters which are
purely spiritual or jurisdictional,"
the church document said.
Priests Arrested
"The bill as proposed cannot be
accepted by any orthodox priest
In his own mind, and even less
can It be approved inwardly or
publicly without sinning against
his faith, his loyalty to the
church and his vow of obedience
to his bishops."
In preparation for the law the
government has swooped down
on what It colls "reactionary ele
ments" among the clergy and
hustled them off to forced labor
camps.
The church document said
priests and bishops represent!?
a majority of Czech and Slovak
dioceses gathered in secret t an
unspecified place Oct 11 to build
their line of defense in the church
state struggle.
The meeting was held three
days before the national assem
bly gave final approval to two
measures which In effect convert
priests into civil servants and
give the government power over
practically all church' affairs.

Farm Home Administration
Officials Meet at Madras
Madras, Oct. 21 With all ad-,
minlstrative officials of the Ore-;
gon office of the Farmers' Home
administration present, as were I
railway officials and men inter-;
ested In development of Oregon
reclamation projects, a two-flay
meeting of those Interested In the
financing operation of the FHA
came to an end Wednesday at a
luncheon, sponsored by the Mad
ras chamber of commerce.
The visitors had joined Jeffer
son county farm and business!
men interests on Tuesday In gain
ing first hand knowledge on a
tour of irrigated tracts which are
receiving financial support from
the Oregon FHA. On Wednes
day morning a session was held
In the basement of the Madras;
Methodist church, where officials
of FHA explained In detail the
policies and lending activities of
the federal agency, now designat
ed by congress as the chief
agency engaged in financing
farm operations that cannot gam
credit from commercial banks or
cooperative finance bodies be
cause of the first mortgage status
of liens held by the government
in operation of project development.
Farms Inspected
Calls were made on Tuesdav at
the farms of Kenneth F. Green
and Cecil G. Benson on Agency
plains and those of Leland King.
Henry David, Jack Griffith and
Albert Pluemke in the Opal City
district o south Jefferson county.
At the Wednesday morning
round table discussions. Hugh Mc
Laughlin, chief of the program of
operations of FHA In Oregon,
gave a report on loans made in
Oregon and Washington and told
how settlers are making a satis
factory amortization of their in
debtedness. It was revealed that
a 60 per cent delinquency had oc
curred in 'this year, a condition de
clared the result of the lack of
cash returns for the first three
years in development of new land
and because of an unusually
harsh winter during 1948-49.
Bruce Stewart, administrator of
an FHA office, headquarters of
which are at Madras and which
covers five north central Oregon
counties, said that he did not con
sider the delinquencies serious.
He declared that he did not think
the federal farm lending agency
would suffer any loss in any in
stance. It was Cited by officials
and others at the meeting that
tl)e government" has recognized
the hazards of the first years of
operation pf settlers on new land
being improved, and that regula
tions provide that two years shall
elapse before delinquencies are
applied. -v All speakers expressed
gratification at the promptness
of- borrowers from FHA in liqui
dating their Indebtedness, a large
percentage of them far in advance
of due dates.
' Costs Explained
Speakers, responding to ques
tions from interested rail offi
cials or others, reported that the
administrative costs of operating
the FHA were maintained by in
terest charges. A need, however,
was declared for a larger person
nel, in order to avoid the errors
of making loans to applicants be
fore they could be thoroughly in
vestigated; A note of warning
was sounded by Robert W. Saw
yer, 'of Bend, ex-president of the
National Reclamation association,
that, administrative costs should
not come from federal appropria
tions. He warned that every
effort should . be made to cut
down the burden of taxes, and
that activities of federal agencies
should be made self-sustaining
and. should not require monies
from the federal treasury.
Fred E. Burgess of Vale and
Henry J. Allyn of Bellingham,
respectively members of the Ore
gon and Washington state FHA
committees, gave a resume of
plans for their respective commit
tees. Invited to Pasco
The Oregon committee mem
bers accepted an invitation to at
tend a joint meeting at Pasco,
Wash., early next spring, when a
tour will be made of places of
Columbia basin project settlers
In that area. The date for the
Pasco meeting was tentatively
set for April 10 and 11.
Stewart presided at the Madras
luncheon. A welcoming address
was delivered by that city's may
or, Adrian Smith, with Walter A.
Duffy, Oregon chief of F11A, re
sponding. A talk on early day his
tory of the development of IVs
chutes basin reclamation was
given by Sawyer, who has ob-1
served it from its Inception and
who has been as active as any
other of the area in pushing for
attainments under the activities
of the buriNiu of reclamation. He
declared that on his way down
from Bend he had been impressed
as he looked out over central Jef
ferson county from a high point
above the Culver junction with
U. S. highway 97, by the amazing .
cnnnges tnat are apparent since
194fi. when first water was deliv
ered to the North unit protect.
The expanse formerly was filled
with dry land wheat farms.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Murray called
police. Within seconds, two squad
