Presbyterian Minister Accuses Catholics of Stealing St. Patrick Err LOUIS CASSELS Washington-OA-A Presby terian minister accused Cath olics t'oday of stealing St. Pat rick from the Protestants. " 'T is an outrageous falsifi cation," replied a Catholic priest whose ancestors hailed from County Roscommon. The larceny charge was made by the Rev. Frank A. Lawront.-e, pastor of Gray stone United Presbyterian church, Indiana, Pa. He's a courageous fellow who loves Irishmen, Catholics and good 'noisy rorvs. In an article for Presbyte rian Lil'e magazine entitled "Patrick: Stolen Saint," Law rence asserted that the Irish saint, whose memory is being celebratcid today by wearers of the green, "is firmly link ed with the Protestant church of Ireland, not with the Ro man Catholic church." Kissed Blarney Stone This was too much for ra ther John E. Kelly, informa tion direct or of the National Catholic Welfare Conference and a loyal grandson of the Ould Sod. "It is evident," said Father Kelly, "thjit Mr. Lawrence has made a t least one trip to Ireland-to kiss the Blarney Stone." . Lawrence, whose ancestors came from Germany, explain ed that he h;ls been brooding over the "theft" of St. Patrick since he studied church his tory years ago at the semin ary. His study, be said, convinc ed him that St. Patrick's spir itual kinship is with Protes- Court Records MUNICIPAL COUBlT John Edwin ReJling. 1822 North Riverside ave., interfering with du ties of police offict-r. $25.

"In the Fifth Century, A.D. -when Patrick preached in Ireland-Rome and the Pope did not hold the position they achieved in later eras," Law rence said. "It was not until alter the Norman Conquest in 1066 that the church in Rome was able to make its influence felt in Ireland. "Patrick preached a simple message of salvation by faith in Jesus Christ. Unlike those in the Roman church, he be lieved in the Bible as the su preme authority in matters of faith." In the Irish church of Patrick's day, there was no mass, no invocation of Mary or of the saints, and priests were allowed to marry. Never once did Patrick mention the Pope or Rome in his writ ings." Lawrence said further evi dence is the fact that St. Pat rick s reputed grave is at the Cathedral of Down in North ern Ireland, a part of the church of Ireland which, in turn, is a branch of the An glican communion. Father Kelly suggested that St. Patrick doubtless would turn in his grave at the very idea of being called a Protes tant. "St. Patrick lived nearly a thousand years before anyone ever heard the word Protes tant," he said. "He was Cath olic through and through." This is the second St. Pat rick donnybrook touched off by Lawrence. Last year, he suggested to his predominant ly Scottish Presbyterian con gregation that they -rename their church "St. Patrick's." "That shook the pillars of the church," he recalled fondly. 'Atm lib - v rglr I. .

Over-Population Claimed Threat To National Survival New York-Science Service) Only if the American peo ple understand the nature of over-population can this threat to the nation's survival be eliminated, Dr. Chauncey D. Leake, president-elect of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, has warned here. He urged the nation's sci entists and leaders to take the people into their confi dence on over-population and give the public knowledge on major social problems. Nine other major problems listed by Dr. Leake are: Conservation Problem 1. Control of nuclear en ergy; 2. Water and air pollution; 3. Conservation of our na tural resources and preserva tion of the inherent beauty of the earth; 4. Removal of the continu ing threat of authoritarianism; 5. Preservation of the dig nity of individual human beings; 6. Promotion of individual responsibility for self-suffic ient old age; 7. Promotion of optimum physical and mental health; 8. Preservation of our com forts, conveniences and clean liness, with equal opportuni ties of all in decent living; and 9. Understanding and con trolling our individual and group prejudices, fears, anx ieties and ambitions, so that we can enjoy the good life possible for us. These problems, Dr. Leake said, are amenable to to a scientific approach. He sug gested that they be handled in this general way: "Top priority should be giv en to more support, sympathy, appreciation, and better social recogntion for basic scientific Department Benefits From Saturday Dance Phoenix-The annual Phoe nix fireman's ball grossed $250 Saturday night, it was reported.

Basic science is con cerned with getting verifiable information about ourselves and our environment. "It is essential then to an alyze and interpret this sci entific knowledge freely for the benefit of the peoples' of the world. This is a major scientifc problem confronting us, dealing with the essentials of information theory, and of effective communication. We have to translate what science is about and what it is doing to our people in the language that they can understand."
