lie Church according to the
best check of Vatican histor-
ians.
When the late Pius XII was
elected in 1939, he was first
listed- as the 262nd pope of
the Catholic Church. This was
based on the assumption that
the first six popes of the
church were: (1) Peter, (2),
Lino, (3) Cleto, (4) Clement,
(5) Anacleto, and (6) Everisto.
The constant research that
goes on in the church, how
ever, established in the early
1940s that Cleto and Anacleto
were most likely the same
person. The list was then re
vised to make the first six
popes thus: Peter, Lino, St.
Anacleto or Cleto, St. Cle
ment, St. Everist and St.
Alexander I.
Thus, the late Pope Pius
XII himself moved back one
to number 261 and the newly
elected pope becomes 262.
American Airlines
Asks Rale Increase
Washington -(UPD- American
Airlines requested an 8.5 per
cent fare increase today to
meet increased costs in the jet
age.
The airline filed a brief
with Civil Aeronautics Board
examiner urging the rate in
crease be allowed over the
boosts which became effective
Feb. 10.
The brief said American
needs the higher fare level to
provide the public with "ade
quate and efficient air service
in the jet age."
"Passenger fares must be
set at a level which will per
mit the carriers to acquire
these craft, to meet the obli
gations attendant upon the fi
nancing of such acquisition,
and to operate them effective

into St. Peter's Basilica whose
interior will be lighted by
thousands of candles.
Once inside, secular pomp
will give way to the solemni
t of a Pontifical Mass, which
the Pope will say and for
which he will be "paid" to re
mind him that he still has the
responsibilities of a simple
priest.
He will take handfuls of
flax three times and thrust
them into a small burner,
watching the flax pass into
smoke "sic transit gloria
mundi" (thus pass the glories
of the world.)
Crowds Shout Adoration
Outside, a crowd of up to
half a million persons will fill
St. Peter's Square and the
streets all the way to the Tiber
to shout their adoration "Viva
il Papa"-Long Live the Pope.
A lucky 30,000 special tick
et holders will pack St. Peter's
Basilica to See Pope John re
cite the Pontifical Mass. But
all the rest, about 300,000 in
St. Peter's Square and tens of
thousands more in the adja
cent streets, will see the ac
tual crowning, when the Pon
tiff sits on the basilica's cen
tral balcony to receive the
three-tiered papal crown.
Eugene Cardinal Tisserant,
dean of the Sacred College of
Cardinals, will place the
crown on the Pontiffs head.
"A golden crown is placed
upon his head," a choir will
sing.
Then the cardinal will re
cite the only prayer accom
panying the coronation, the
Lord's Prayer.
For all its splendor, the cor
onation ceremony involves no
elaborate formal oath and
does not have the same signif
icance as the coronation of a
temporal sovereign or swear
ing in of a chief of state.
Became Pope Tuesday'
Pope John became sover
eign pontiff of the Roman
Catholic Church Tuesday at
the instant he replied "I ac
cept" to his election.
, Until the Sixteenth Cen
tury the coronation took place
in the Basilica of St. John the
Lateran, then at the balcony
of St. Peter's as it is today.
When Italy was unified in
1870, secular hostility to the
church led the coronation cer
emony to be moved inside the
basilica instead of on the bal
cony. With the coronation of the
late Pope Pius XII, Italy made
peace with the church and the
ceremony was back on the
balcony.

Some of Catholic Church's
Gravest Problems Facing Pope
Vatican City - (UPD - Pope
John XXIII, faced with some
of the gravest problems in
Roman Catholic Church his
tory, was expected today to
call a consistory "before the
end of January" to name new
cardinals.
The problems ranged from
the severe menace of atheistic
Communism to the need to
revamp the entire Vatican ad
ministrative machinery and
replenish the depleted ranks
of priests and missionaries
around the world. The new
Pope also faced an upsurge
of materialism, apathy and
cynicism in his own Roman
Catholic Italy.
High Vatican officials said
the speed with which the new
Pope appointed conclave sec
retary Msgr. Alberto Di Jorio
as cardinal Tuesday indicated
swift action would be taken
to replenish the strength of
the Sacred College.

For Angelo Giuseppe Roncal
li knows virtually every one
of the 1,773 villagers by
name. Led by the parish
priest, Pietro Bosio, they rush
ed to the town's center. Many
knelt to pray on the cobble
stones. Angelo's three broth
ers still living here went to
the parish church to pray.
The boy Angelo had been
born in his farm family's
stone house on Nov. 25, 1881,
here in Sotto il Monte, which
in Italian means "under the
mountain." It is near Ber
gamo, 40 miles east of Milan.
His father was a sharecrop
per for Count Ottavio Mog
lani. He was a hard-working
man who reared 13 children
and managed to save money
to buy himself a small field
of his own. He had counted
on Angelo Giuseppe, his third
child and eldest son, to help
him in the fields.
Had Other Ideas
At the age of 11, Angelo
had other ideas. He told his
father he wanted to . become
a priest. The" father agreed.
In time, the boy who had
slept on an iron cot in the
stone house became a cardi
nal of the church. But he
spent his summers and holi
days here, in the family home.
And so it was that when
Angelo last left the stone
house, and the village, early
this month he traveled to
Rome for the funeral of Pope
Pius XH-and the conclave
that Tuesday elected him the
new pope.
And according to Vatican
sources in Rome, the name
that he took for himself as
supreme pontiff, "Giovanni,"
or John, was chosen to honor
his father, whose first name
was John -the father who had
not objected to his leaving
the fields to dedicate his life
to God.
be consecreated, are left of
the 70 who filled the college
after - the late Pope Pius XII
named 24 new princes of the
church in 1953. Two of these,
Jozsef Cardinal Mindszenty of
Hungary and Aloysius . Card
inal Stepinac of Yugoslavia,
are virtual prisoners behind
the Communist Iron Curtain.
The new pontiff ascended
the throne of St. Peter at one
of the most critical times for
the Roman Catholic Church
- at a time when 4Js very sur
vival is menaced in many
lands by Communism.
Also important, according
to Vatican observers, was the
problem presented by the in
ternal condition of the church.
Despite modernization and
innovations during the 19
year reign of Pius XII, Vati
can machinery has been op
erating at a comparative 19th
Century pace in. a moon
rocket age. The late pope him
self seemed far ahead of the
vision of the churchmen
around him.
Some Vatican observers
said Pope John never may
succeed in matching Pope
Pius's horizon-spanning grasp
of almost all topics. But, they
said, he may broaden antl
quicken the scope and pace of
the entire Vatican adminis
trative apparatus.
This could have a more
significant effect on the
church than the actions of
one man, even if Supreme
Pontiff, the observers said.
Seedlings Ready
For Planting
Salem -Nearly nine million
forest tree seedlings will be
available from the 'two state
forestry department nurser
ies for forest and' farm wood
lot planting throughout the
state during the coming plant
ing season, according to As
sistant State Forester C. D.
Maus.
There will be 17 different
species which are adaptable
to nearly all climatic condi
tions in the state and fill
most of the needs for forest
production and products such
as posts, poles, fuel and logs
as well as shelter for the farm
buildings, livestock and or
chards, Maus stated.
Order blanks have been
issued and can be picked
up at the various state for
estry department headquart
ers, the county agents' offices
or directly from the state
forester's office in Salem. The
blanks contain a list of the
trees and cost, as well as brief
instruction as to ordering pro
cedure of the seedlings.
John Among Most
Popular Papal Names
Vatican City - (UPD - Pope
John XXIU chose the most
popular of the 89 papal
names recorded in the an
nals of Roman Catholic
church history.
It was so popular in fact,
that the Vatican chronicles
list 23 pope Johns even
though only 21 men actually
used the name.
Hopes To Avert

uled. The strike would halt TWA
operations from coast to coast
and all flights originating or

The deadline is 8:59 p.m. ,
(p.s.t.) Friday.
The main issue of dispute is
consolidation of several work

RELIABLE PRESCRIPTIONS
With This Editorial Which
Appeared in the Oregonian
on Friday, October 24, 1958
Entitled v
Why Hatfield Should Be Go vernor
99
, Despite the sporsity of major conflicts
In the campaign for governor of Oregon,
the voters should not be lulled. There are
deep-running issues and principles sepa-
rating the two candidates. The course of
government in Oregon, and its effects on
taxation and economic improvement,
could be set for many years by this
election.
The editors of this newspaper count
themselves as personally friendly to
Robert D. Holmes, governor for the past
two years and previously a four-term
state senator. We have approved some of
his policies and appointments in office,
while disapproving others. At guberna
torial records go, his is a cut above the
average. Yet we do not favor his re
election. -
He has not demonstrated strong lead
ership and independence of thought and
action, anailment which also afflicted
some of his Republican predecessors. We
believe he would like to be a stronger
and more independent chief executive.
But he is a captive of the forces which
elected him organized labor leaders,
grange leaders, public power spokesmen,
commercial fishing interests,, et al. His
Vacillations in the past two years seem to
be surface indications of the influences,
perhaps a major one being union labor
financing of his campaigns, which shape
and limit his ability to act.
governor in the nation this year; warm,
friendly, an excellent speaker, well edu
cated and an educator, a student of gov
ernment with a clear-cut goal of major
service in public office. His support in
1 956 when he defeated State. Sen. Mon
roe Sweetland, Democratic- leader, for
secretary of state came from both political
parties. He is liberal in the best sense of
that word. He is friendly to labor and
business alike but pledged to neither,
seeing in the governorship an opportunity
to be of assistance to both and to lessen
the bruising conflicts of labor-management
strife.
Gov. Holmes has revealed a disturbing
tendency to shoot from the hip, without
proper investigation of the facts, on many
occasions. But more than that, he has
acted in a manner which threatens harm
to the state. For examples: -
The governor's appointments and or
ders to the State Water Resources Board
seem designed to make a political vehicle
out of that important resource body. He
muzzled the Game and Fish Commissions
to the detriment of the presentation of
facts in federal hearings. His many pa
tronage appointments have upset several
departments and displaced men of long
and valued service.
The Republican opponent of Gov.
Holmes, Secretary of State Mark Hatfield,
on the other hand, has kept himself so
free of entangling alliances that his cam
paign spending has suffered as a result.
It is no secret that the so-called Republi
can "Old Guard," which for many years
carried the brunt of financing GOP can
didates, has contributed little money to
and has been kept at arm's length from
Mr. Hatfield's campaigns.
- " ...
No candidate for govern o r since
Charles A. Sprague was elected in 1938
has So scrupulously preserved his freedom
to act in the interests of all the people as
has Mark Hatfield. In the primary cam
paign, Mr. Hatfield stayed out of the red
while defeating two strong opponents,
Sig Unander and Warren Gill, on. a mini
mum budget contributed by nearly 800
individuals. In the Democratic primary,
Gov. Holmes was running up a $16,000
deficit and who has made that up re
mains unexplained. Any contributions ac
cepted by Mr. Hatfield ore without com
- mitments.
When Sen. Wayne L. Merse accused
Mr. Hatfield of being the "protege" of the
president of a private utility company,
the absurdity was apparent. That execu
tive opposes legislation now in the works
for d federal Regional Power Corporation.
He opposes a constitutional amendment
on the Oregon ballot to establish a State
Power Commission. Mr. Hatfield strongly
favors both concepts, and has stood firm
against attacks in his own party for
doing so.
While disparaging Mr. Hatfield's de
mands for economy in government, and
actual examples of savings in the secre
tary of state's office, Gov. Holmes pro-"
poses much greater state expenditures
without suggesting how these may be
financed. His promise of increasing the.
state school support program to 50 per
cent of local district Costs; his advocacy
of a 156-million-dollar bond issue for
state institutions, and other plans forecast
a tremendous increase in the state budget
if he is re-elected and gains control of
the Legislature.
Gov. Holmes' leadership failed most
notably in the taxation field He left the
1957 Legislature floundering, after cam
paigning against the 45 per cent "Repub
lican surtax" on incomes. As a result, the
Democratic - controlled Assembly boosted
the income tax instead of reducing it.
Then, when it wat learned there would
be a 70 - million dollar surplus. Gov.
Holmes called a special session. First, he
advocated a 7 per cent reduction in the
surplus, then a 1 0 per cent reduction. Due
to a strong stand by a bipartisan group
of Republicans and Democrats in the
Senate, who sought a 30 per cent cut, the
eventual reduction was 18 per cent. And
still there will be a surplus of more than
30 million dollars.
In our opinion, Mark Hatfield offers "a
great deal to the people of Oregon. This'
promise stems from his personal integrity,
intelligence and knowledge of govern-
ment, courage, independence, clear and
imaginative thinking, and basic fair
mindedness. -Af the age of 36, and with maturity
beyond his years, Mark Hatfield is proba
bly the most exceptional candidate for.
A detailed probing of Gov. Holmes'
brief record as chief executive would fill
this page. In summation, we believe that
if he continues in office he will encourage
high spending, and higher taxation, an
all-out public power movement such as
grange and labor failed to get on this
year's ballot, heavier burdens on employ
er in the form of unemployment compen
sation, and more state dependence on
federal handouts.
The Oregonian favors the election of
Mark Hatfield, who has demonstrated
competence in administration, sound
judgment in weighing benefits against
costs, an open mind on resource, labor
and management questions, and freedom
to act in the broad interests of the great
majority of Oregon's citizens.
