Two Priests Freed By Communist China Hong Kong W Two American Roman Catholic priests were released from Building Halted On Cathedral Washington, D C. Major con struction on the Washington Na tion Cathedral (Episcopal) has been halted for the first time since World War II because of lack of funds. Bishop Angus Dun of Washington has dis closed. The last time work on the Cathedral of SS. Peter and Paul was interrupted was in 1942. when the wartime shortage of materials made it impossible to continue. Construction work was resumed in 1948 and has made steady progress since then. The bishop told the annual convention of the Washington diocese that about S15.000.000 has been spent on construction cf the Cathedral since the cor nerstone was laid in 1907. He said that at least an equal amount will be needed to com plete the structure which will be the world's 12th largest re ligious edifice when completed. The Cathedral will observe the 50th anniversary of the start of construction in September with a colorful public service for dedication of two newly completed bays.

Under House Bill 594. school districts with certain minimum requirements including true cash valuation of at least S20.000.000 are authorized to set up com munity or junior colleges. Civil Rights Broadened Other bills approved overhaul laws covering the co-operative corporations in Oregon and two bills broaden protection of civil rights. Vetoed was Senate Bill 470 which would have given police authority to fingerprint and pho tograph anyone charged with a misdemeanor. In his veto message the gover nor said. "It is my opinion that to grant all policemen the pow er to require a citizen to submit to being fingerprinted for the alleged commission of any mis demeanor is contrary to good public policy and is a serious in fringement on the rights of the individual citizen." The governor also objected that the bill allowed fingerprint ing and photographing of chil dren of any age. The bill would also have cre ated a central bureau of criminal identification in the state police. Gov. Holmes said this was a de sirable objective and could be accomplished by administrative order. Trust Deed Use Vetoed Vetoed along with the finger print bill were bills authorizing use of trust deeds, to require the state to pay half the salaries of appraisers and draftsmen em ployed by county assessors and one setting a two per cent tax ' on trailers. "The trust deed bill would. I b e 1 i eve. materially increase home owners' costs and work a particular hardship on the farm ers." Gov. Holmes said. The vetoed house bill 382, the assessor bill, because the legis lature had not appropriated any money and it might require sev eral thousand dollars. The trailer tax bill was veto ed by the governor because he believed that responsibility for assessment and collection of the taxes should not be transferred from county officials to the de partment of motor vehicles. Prison Law Liberalized Also approved were bills lib eralizing laws granting time off for good behavior in the state penitentiary, appropriating mon ey for education television in Oregon and authorizing the board of control to discontinue tuber culosis hospitals at The Dalles or Portland or use one of the in stitutions for another purpose.
